Dogs welcome
Adults only

Widdicombe Farm has been in the Glynn family since 1973 and is still a working farm. The touring park covers about eight acres on the Ring Road (A380) above Paignton, with views towards Dartmoor and no narrow lanes to negotiate, which suits big rigs. Nearly all pitches are all-weather gravel with a 10 amp hook-up and room to park alongside; there is also a small number of grass pitches for tents.

It is strictly adults only, with no children as guests or visitors. Gordon's Bar runs live entertainment in the main season, Poppies restaurant opens at peak times, and food vans (pizza, fish and chips, Thai) visit on other evenings. Torbay's beaches are about ten minutes away by car, and a minibus runs when enough people sign up. Dogs are accepted at the owner's discretion, up to three per unit, but are not allowed in the amenity blocks.
