About Waterside Holiday Park

Waterside Holiday Park sits on the Devon coast at Paignton, with a facilities block that includes showers and an on-site pool. Staff are consistently reported to be friendly and helpful. The setting offers views across the bay, and the park's position makes it easy to reach coastal walks and local towns without a car.

Armchair Cove beach is just a few minutes' walk away. The park sits close enough to the railway line that guests notice passing steam trains. One thing to note: some visitors have reported that accommodation can be poorly maintained, so it is worth checking the condition of your specific pitch or lodge when you arrive.

What visitors say

James Reilly

We’re coming to the end of another fantastic stay at Waterside Holiday Park Devon, and this was my 5th visit. In fact, we’ve enjoyed it so much that we’ve already booked to return in August! The park is always welcoming, well-maintained, and a great place to relax. A special mention goes to Lizzie on the front-of-house team, who is absolutely amazing and always goes above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. I’d also like to thank Tia for preparing our caravan. It was absolutely spotless on arrival and maintained to a very high standard, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you to everyone at Waterside Holiday Park for another wonderful holiday. I can’t wait to come back in August!

The caravans are all very close together so you can literally hear each other's tvs. The site is very noisy in the evenings with kids and dogs barking. I couldn't see a single caravan with parking next to it which is stressful when it comes to unloading the car on your own. The office closes at 5 most days so if you need anything after then you're not going to get any help on site. Beds aren't overly comfortable. My daughter opted to sleep on the sofa bed. Site is clean but nothing much on it. We have used it as a base to sleep and shower.

Really fantastic weekend away at Waterside Holiday Park! Large clean caravan, wonderful entertainment area with a lovely swimming pool. Great views out to sea & of the steam train going past every hour 🚂🚃🚃🚃 Access to 2 tiny coves for swimming/chilling by the beach. All the staff were really friendly on reception & around the site, Sue, Sarah & Lizzie. Will definitely be back . Great value!
