Why stay here ...
Set in a quiet, simple and spacious location, Stover Club Campsite lies next to a beautiful country park on the edge of Dartmoor. If you crave a tranquil break and a wealth of lovely scenic walks, this is the ideal caravan site for your holiday. The Stover Park itself offers a variety of walks - you can choose secure expeditions guided by the Park staff or if you fancy something more challenging the wilder terrains of Dartmoor nearby are waiting to be discovered.
Visitors to Stover Club Campsite can enjoy the other aspects of Dartmoor by following the nature trail through a lovely valley to see Becky Falls. You can also opt for a leisurely drive to Canonteign for another country park well worth visiting as well as a host of delightful waterfalls. There is also a memorable Heritage Trail near the caravan park called the Templer Way; it runs from Haytor right through to the sea at Shaldon.
Less than a mile away is Trago Mills Family shopping and Leisure Park which includes super karts, trawler boats, steam and model railways plus an interactive animal enclosure so there is something for everyone nearby.
Digital TV signal booster in operation (no lead required).
Please note: this site does not have a toilet block.

A great hidden Gem
Stover Club Campsite
We arrived to a very warm welcome, straight away you felt you were in the countryside, yet the Devon express way was only up the road.
The site has great access, easy to find and the site itself was immaculate, well spaced out, everything you'd expect of the club. Friday night a chip van visits the site not only great food but good value.
Having 3 collies Dog walk is essential Stovers is brilliant, lovely dog walk, and even a bench to have 5. Go out the site and turn right, follow the pavement and just by the roundabout there's a gate into the county park, a must if you are staying at the site. We spent most our time in the park, exploring the history, the Canadian memorial and the old gatehouse. So much nature to see and although dogs have to be on lead around the lake, other parts they can run free and access the river.
Trago Mills is a mile up the Road but not safe to walk, but easy to drive to and plenty of parking there's a Co-op, Trago sell a huge variety and outside is a fruit and veg Market.
The Wardens Kath and Pete were so friendly, helpful and very knowledge and head warden Robbie the Westie was so cute and kept all in check.
Thank you for a wonderful visit and we've already booked for next year would 100% recommend this site.
Good site for touring the area
Stover Club Campsite
The site is all hardstanding with no facilities, there is some road noise but this is the compromise of being off a main road , but the road noise did not spoil our stay , a Co-op 5 minute drive away for supplies and stover park is a short walk from the site entrance which has a good path around the lake , the site is well kept and has a fish and chip van on Friday ( didn’t use it so can’t comment on the food)
Great place for dog walking
Stover Club Campsite
We had a great stay at Stover.
Plenty of walks in Stover Park just a short walk from the site.
Even the dog walk on the site is good with a running stream that dogs can splash in.
Visited Teignmouth a couple of times for a lovely walk on the beach.
However on the last day of our stay (thursday) local farmer set off a very loud bird scarer which fired off shots in several directions .... this happened every so often during the afternoon. Our dog was troubled and I saw other people with worried dogs.
I must admit it started to shred my nerves. It was really loud.
We had enough and instead of staying the night packed up and left for home.
Sad really the rest of the holiday was quiet and enjoyed it very much.
Just beware if you go at seed planting time of year.

Suited Our Needs Perfectly
Stover Club Campsite
Our first visit to this no facility site for a five night break. Very easy access with a warm welcome from the on duty warden. There is no denying that it is a busy road but we were able to select a pitch to the rear of the site which was pretty quiet. Our nightly pitch fee for two adults, with the VAT discount, worked out at about £15.50 per night - excellent value for a hard standing pitch with electric hook up. Site is adjacent to Stover Country Park which offers some great walking. The Stover Trail can be followed, on foot or bike, either to Bovey Tracey in one direction or Newton Abbott in the other. Lovely, wooded on site dog walk - just a shame that the more bone idle dog owners seem incapable of clearing up the mess. There was some disparate shooting in the woods on some mornings which our dogs didn't like and made me jump on occasion! Other than that, a great site for short or long stay especially if you are on a budget.
Stay at stover campsite
Stover Club Campsite
The site itself is very nice and although it was busy during our stay was not noisy. The walks in the park are quite pleasant. Although trago mills is a very short distance away you cannot walk to it as there is no footpath along a busy road. One word of warning. The bus service from out side of the site is unreliable and the drivers aren’t the friendliest you will come across so beware of this.
