Date of stay: 8th September 2025

Castle Brake is a beautiful place to stay.I'd say that it is a more grown up site, but for the younger kids, they do allow free use of the sister site, Ladram.Let's get one little thing out of the way. It is a static caravan that probably 100's of people have used before you. So there is some wear and tear, kitchen knifes are a little blunt, pans are a little scratched up, etc. But that will certainly be the case at any of these places. Anyway, the staff were very friendly, and very helpful. Even when reception was closed, we found the staff in the Castle Inn just as helpful. The site itself is lovely, it's very quiet and peaceful too. Nestled in a pocket of woodland, it has some lovely walks right from the site, and even more just a quick trip away.We were able to check in a touch early, without issue. The caravan was very clean and tidy. There was plenty of seating inside, with a load outside too with a spare couple of chairs for either in the cupboard. The kitchen was well equipped and I didn't find that I missed anything from home. Our caravan had an iron and board. There was even a vacuum cleaner in one of the cupboards. Very handy with a toddler. They do have a Games Room, which is fine, but we didn't use it. There is also a kids park on site, but again, we didn't have the opportunity to find or use that. We are planning a visit to Devon again next year and we Castle Brake is on the list second only to Ladram Bay, their sister site.

Expensive but somewhat good for value.

A beautiful site with something for everyone. An easy 10mins drive down to their sister site for the pool and some louder entertainment, but Castle Brake caravan park, hosting Woodbury woods Hoseasons, is just wonderful. Hot tub checked every day and was emptied and refilled before we arrived and after the booking before us. Accommodation was clean, spacious, great pressure in the shower, had most things you need in the kitchen (depends what youre used to!). We were in a premier plus. Took my elderly mum with us and she managed everything very well with some limited mobility. Bedrooms and linen/bedding was in excellent condition, as was the rest of the furnishings. *Take extra tea towels, hand towels for bathroom, hand soap and washing up liquid. Unless you book extras. The friendliest and loveliest of staff on reception and around the site. Shop offers essentials and plenty of treats too. Pub/restaurant onsite has a good menu and was in use most days. Clean, tidy, beautiful walks, brilliant access to nearby beaches and other things to do.
