where to pitch near exeter?

[Alison0207]

trying to find a suitable site for my family-including 11 &15 yr olds + springer spaniel-for a week before Easter.
Any suggestions?I hope to get them all into the city for a bit and to explore its surroundings-an area we have not yet spent any time in-simply sailed past on the M5!

Thanks

we have just booked forest glade at collumpton may be spelt wrong we dont like the real big sites like haven but we dont like it to small like cl cs it has a small pool and all other bits and peaces.it is in a forest and you can see the owls out at night also its next to a glider club that pass over in the day time.

You have two good options there but if you like the bigger sites, Haven at Exmouth is not too far away, big commercial site with a farm type thing right at the entrance, walk down to there own beach.
Or alternativley there is Cofton at Dawlish nice tidy quite site, but only outdoor pool at the moment, planning has been passed for indoor but dont know if it is complete.
And one I have not stayed at yet but will try for a weekend this year is at Dawlish also and called Ladysmile,
Look them up and you can decide good luck on your hunt.

whent to cofton last year found it verey crowded verey mucky but had rained a lot lack off showers for so many pitches some pitches were very tight to get on they realy packed them in but we hed a pitch in the top field.

Cofton---- thats a classic example of two differant opinions, we went in july last year and found it to be excellant, the sun was shining though on the rare apperance it showed!!!! used the outdoor pool had a few beers in the evening, but we did pitch just up from the lower feild and had loads of room.
So at the end of the day its you who has to decide and make it what you will.

Would love to try it , but I have a problem, I only live about 2 miles from it, neighbours would laugh there heads off if I went and stayed there,
unless you can think off a way I could sneak in with a 37 foot outfit
