Which Devon Holiday Park is the Best (In Our Experience)

Devon is one of the UK's most beloved holiday counties, and for good reason. With its golden beaches, rolling countryside, dramatic coastlines, and warm welcome, it's a dream destination for families, couples, and adventurers alike. But with so many holiday parks to choose from, deciding where to stay can feel overwhelming. 

Drawing on years of first-hand experience, we've rounded up the six best Devon holiday parks that combine comfort, entertainment, and that unmistakable West Country charm. Here's how they stack up.

Cofton Holidays, Dawlish

Cofton Holidays sits at the very top of our list, and not just because it's home. Tucked into a beautiful valley near Dawlish, this award-winning park strikes the perfect balance between countryside seclusion and seaside fun. 

Accommodation ranges from cosy holiday caravans and spacious lodges to beautifully converted holiday cottages, all finished to a high standard with modern amenities, private outdoor spaces, and access to the park's superb facilities. Whatever the size of your group, there's a home-from-home waiting here.

The real magic, though, is in everything you can do. Families love the heated indoor pool with water jets and splash pad, the outdoor pool in summer, adventure playgrounds, woodland trails, fishing lakes, and bike hire. Parents can unwind in the sauna and steam room or enjoy a relaxed drink at the Swan Pub. 

With Dawlish Warren beach, Exmouth, and the South West Coast Path all close by, Cofton is ideally placed for exploring the best of South Devon. In our experience, no other park quite matches it for variety, comfort, and value.
