Great campsite

Satterthwaite, Mark - 18/08/2026

First, I was grateful that there was EV charging facilities and even better, it actually worked. The chargers don't appear on any EV charger map for some reason; the benefit of which is that there was always a charging bay available (4 bays total).We camped at pitch P34 which is at the top of the campsite which made it somewhat quiet, my calves got a good workout during our stay due to the amount of times we trekked up and down the hill.The shop was well stocked with all the basics of what you would need. The daily food vans were appreciated on the days when we couldn't be bothered to cook. The girls enjoyed the playing field, play ground and games room.The campsite gets nice and dark at night, we enjoyed some spectacular sights of the perseid meteor shower last week from Smytham.The primary reason why we chose Smytham was to have access to a swimming pool. The pool area is nice and clean, the pool got a bit "foggy" towards the end of the day; probably due to sun cream.

We had a lovely 5 night stay camping at Smytham. The holiday park is very well kept, staff are friendly and helpful with good facilities. The dishwasher in the washing up room is a genius idea! We’d definitely consider staying again.

Relaxing break

Campbell, Sharon - 14/08/2026

We loved our recent visit. The staff were so knowledgeable, friendly and hard working to make our stay so enjoyable. The site is very well maintained with very clean toilet and washing-up facilities. The swimming pool was a highlight along with the mini golf. A lovely landscaped site with excellent pitches. We chose grass and it was very spacious. The campers were very quiet at night and early in the mornings. It was the first week of Aug so it was busy but not overcrowded. Excellent food vans visit and the on-site bar and games room was very welcoming too. I would say this was the only area that could do with a lick of fresh paint. As with the rest of the site is was very clean and welcoming. We used our bikes everyday to go on the Tarka Trail so getting around for us was easy as the site is in a rural area. One of the best sites we have visited in over 20 years.

Amazing stay in Lavendar lodge!

Jones, Jodie - 11/08/2026

Stayed in Lavendar lodge for a week. The lodge had everything we needed, comfy beds, large decking for eating outside & hot tub used every day! The lodge was very clean and fresh towels and bedding provided. The staff were so friendly & helpful with any questions we had. Hired bikes for a day on the Tarka trail with the 7 year old using a tag along which was brilliant. Pool was lovely and warm. Highlight was the food vans which arrived each night and food from each one was amazing! We didn’t want to leave and felt completely relaxed after what felt like a week of peace, rest, fun and delicious food!
