Higher Well Farm Holiday Park
A family-run Devon orchard site done with the kind of care that turns first-timers into twenty-year regulars.
Higher Well Farm sits in a working orchard above the Dart estuary fringe, within a fifteen-minute stroll of Stoke Gabriel village and an easy drive to the beaches at Paignton and Brixham. The views across rolling Devon hills are the site's quiet boast, and the 90 generously-sized pitches are spread across ground that the owners clearly look after with genuine attention.
What the reviews say, consistently and over years, is that the facilities are immaculate: showers always hot, toilets turned around multiple times daily, grass cut tight. There is an enclosed dog walk on site, a little book library, and pitches with full serviced hookup available. It is not a destination for adventure infrastructure. It is a destination for uncomplicated Devon camping done properly.
Stoke Gabriel is worth the walk: a mill and a water inlet, a genuine village rather than a tourist strip. Paignton and Brixham are around a fifteen-minute drive for coast days. A grocery shop sits a mile away and a superstore two miles out, so supply runs are painless.
Before you book
