Hi.
Were off to Lydford caravan and camping site near Okehampton next Monday for 6 nights.
Has anyone stayed there before?
Have read some reviews on it but cant seem to find any info on major local shops(Tesco,Asdas etc..)
Anyone been there?

Try looking after the little shops and let the sharks look after themselfs , Thats the idea when we visit these nice little places its how we become welcome.

Hii
Lydford is about halfway between Okehanpton and Tavistock. Tavistock is a very pleasant small market town with some interesting shops - not just the usual multiples. It also has its 'Pannier' market on Fridays. There is a Morrisons supermarket on the southern edge of the town (on the right of the A386 to Plymouth).
Have a good time and make sure you visit/walk the Lydford gorge. If you are looking for a reasonably level walk with stunning views on Dartmoor, try the path along the old railway track which ran from Yelverton to Princetown.
Cheers
Paul

Thank you cheshirecat and paul for your replies.
Cheshirecat,whilst I agree with you totally about looking after our local shops,the price difference between a local shop and a "Asda/Morrisons"etc.. can be a lot of money when doing a weeks shopping.
Paul..thanks for the tips about the shops and walks.
Ive read about Lydford gorge and the level walk sounds great.
Thanks again,
Adrian
