Country Holidays in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just six miles from Exmouth beach.
Castle Brake, Woodbury, Devon, EX5 1HA Telephone +44 (0)1395 232431 Tony and Dare Walker invite you to spend a few minutes with them to look at this small family park, beautifully situated for peace and relaxation, and yet within a short drive of the city of Exeter, the towns and beaches of Exmouth, Budleigh Salterton and Sidmouth and several major tourist attractions. Surrounded by farmland where cattle graze and buzzards soar overhead, the 10 acres of truly rural environment has been conserved for visitors to feast their eyes on the many varieties of birds which nest here, butterflies gathering nectar, the abundance of wild flowers and, for early risers, deer eating grass shoots. The ancient oak trees and Devon hedges have been carefully tended so that wildlife continues to happily co-exist with caravanners! As grass is left to grow naturally and no pesticides are used, there is a seasonal abundance of natural food to pick in the grounds. Blackberries go well with ice cream and mushrooms make a tasty breakfast! The park holds a Silver Award for conservation in the David Bellamy environment scheme which underlines the park’s commitment to retaining our natural heritage. The other priority has been to provide this small park with extremely high quality facilities so visitors not only feel the comfort and security of a small park where children are not too far away from their families, but also feel confident that the aim has been to provide exceptional facilities rather than the cheapest. The well equipped playground has been carved into the hillside on terraces to give children a sense of adventure and freedom. The equipment is surrounded by large safety surfaces and the banks in between are planted with wild flowers. Bring your own touring caravan, motor home or tent and use our facilities. There are two touring fields - one with electric hookup and one without electric hookup points. Both have water points and very fine views of the countryside and the River Exe & beyond to the Haldon Hills and the peaks of Dartmoor. Most pitches are 35-40 foot apart so there is plenty of room to relax and enjoy some privacy. The shower, toilet and washing up facilities are designed to provide every need for the modern caravanner. The bright facilities built in 1997 are equipped with hair dryers, vanity unit for ladies, shaving sockets, mirrors and large deep washing up sinks. Each wash basin for gentlemen and ladies is fitted in a personal cubicle. Touring caravan storage in a secure compound is a popular all year round facility available to visitors who do not wish to tow on busy roads. Please ask for details. Stay in one of our holiday caravans and relax, enjoy the countryside and the high standards of cleanliness we provide. New models are introduced every year. Designs, colours and layouts vary depending on model. There are several different types of holiday caravan to choose from: 3 BEDROOM CARAVANS 9 berth caravans have one double bedroom with built in electric heater, 2 bedrooms with twin beds, one overhead bunk and the lounge area also converts into a double bed. 2 BEDROOM CARAVANS 6 berth caravans have one double bedroom with built in electric heater, one bedroom with twin beds and the lounge area also converts into a double bed. The Superior 2 models have a larger double bedroom than the standard model. There is no bedroom heater in the standard model. Each model is fully equipped with crockery, cutlery, utensils, colour television, cooker, fridge with freezer compartment, lounge heating, duvets, pillows, co-ordinated duvet covers and pillowcases for the bedrooms and pillows and pillow cases and blankets for the bunk and extra berths in the lounge. For your safety and peace of mind all caravans have a smoke alarm, fire equipment and are covered by current gas and electrical certificates. Of course every holiday caravan has a shower room with shower, handbasin and toilet for you own personal use and privacy. Add this to a comfortable lounge, dining area and kitchen and there is everything in place for a perfect holiday. And when you step outside your caravan on a clear evening you can see the spectacular night sky. Other Park Facilities The small indoor games room houses a pool table, table tennis and climbing frame and is enjoyed by all age groups as well as being a blessing if the weather is inclement. The laundry is equipped with washing machines, tumble dryers, irons, ironing boards and deep sink. Mr Badgers evening takeway, licensed bar and restaurant is a quiet haven to relax after travelling or a day out with the family. There is an extensive menu which includes fish and vegetarian choices and you will be able to compare notes with regular visitors about places to visit. It is not a noisy club, merely somewhere to have a meal or a drink in pleasant company and surroundings. Small children are catered for with high chairs, special priced menu and toys to play with and the collection of badgers- pictures, cuddly, ceramic grows larger every year! Please note: Groups are not accepted on the park except by prior arrangement with the management. The tariff contains details of the main opening and closing dates of the restaurant and bar.
