Cofton Holidays: Holiday Park

Cofton Holidays: Holiday Park

Overview: What Makes Cofton Holiday Park Special?

Think of it as that rare beast - a holiday park that actually delivers on its promises. Nestled in Devon's finest countryside, it's got enough going on to keep the kids from asking "are we there yet?" while you're already there.

Pitch Perfect: Spacious Spots and Modern Facilities

For starters, the pitches are proper spacious - none of that sardine-in-a-tin nonsense you get at some sites. The shower blocks are actually clean (shock horror), and the staff seem to have missed the memo about being grumpy. They're genuinely helpful, which is a bit disconcerting at first.

Family Entertainment: More Than Just Playgrounds

They've gone properly overboard here. Three playgrounds (yes, three), including:

  • A skateboarding area for the teens who are "too cool" for normal stuff
  • A football pitch for working off those fish and chips
  • Plus, Dawlish town centre's just down the road when you fancy a proper seaside fix

Swimming Pools: Double the Splash

Two of them, actually:

  • Indoor pool (pre-booking required)
  • Outdoor pool for those sunny Devon days Just remember your cossie - skinny dipping's frowned upon, apparently.

Food and Drink: Proper Holiday Grub

The on-site restaurant's a cut above your usual holiday park fare:

  • Quality food that won't break the bank
  • Decent selection of beers
  • Evening entertainment that's actually entertaining

Peaceful Escapes: Walking Trails and Views

Surprisingly peaceful walking trails around the park:
 

  • Perfect for morning strolls
  • Stunning countryside views
  • Quiet spots away from the action

Key Features at a Glance

  • Modern shower blocks (that actually work)
  • Indoor and outdoor pools

Best Pitch Location

Go for one near the walking trails - you get a bit more peace and quiet, plus you're first in line for those morning views. Just far enough from the evening entertainment to avoid the karaoke, close enough to stumble back from the bar.

Who Should Stay Here?

  • Families wanting everything on tap
  • Couples who enjoy a lively atmosphere
  • Anyone appreciating thoughtful holiday park design

Not ideal for:

  • Those seeking complete silence
  • Ultra-minimalists

The Verdict

"It's what happens when someone actually thinks about what makes a good holiday park. Spacious pitches, clean facilities, enough to keep everyone busy, and staff who seem to enjoy their jobs. Sometimes that's all you need."
