Details checked 5 August 2026 Β· source: Google Places Caravan and motorhome site on a Devon headland above Plymouth Sound with electric pitches, dog park, and direct access to the South West Coast Path. ## About Plymouth Sound Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite Plymouth Sound Caravan and Motorhome Club Campsite sits on a breezy headland above the Sound at Down Thomas, with many of its sixty-odd electric grass pitches opening out to sweeping water views toward Cornwall. The site lies directly on the South West Coast Path and close to the Plym Valley Cycleway, making it a strong base for walkers and cyclists rather than those after a purely urban break. Facilities are practicalβ€”motorhome service point, dog park, play area, free wifiβ€”but there's no shop or pool on site, so the emphasis stays firmly on the setting and the trails. The exposed clifftop position means tents and awnings need solid pegging even in summer, and some visitors note that facilities can feel a little tired in places. Still, the combination of clean nearby beaches, rock-pooling at Wembury, passenger ferries into Plymouth from Mount Batten, and that unbeatable coast-path access make it hard to fault for anyone chasing sea air and South West scenery within easy reach of the city. ## Photos Photos via Google ## Can I bring...? β›Ί Tent pitches βœ• No 🚐 Caravans welcome βœ“ Yes 🚌 Motorhomes welcome βœ“ Yes ✨ Glamping available βœ• No πŸ›– Lodges & statics βœ• No ## Pitch types - β€’ Electric grass touring pitch Pitch details as listed by the booking provider β€” availability and exact pricing shown at checkout. ## Hook-up ⚑ Electric hook-up βœ“ πŸ”Œ EV charging βœ• ## Facilities 🚿 Hot showers βœ“ πŸ“Ά Free WiFi βœ• 🏊 Swimming pool βœ• πŸ›’ Onsite shop βœ• 🎠 Children's play area βœ• πŸ– BBQs allowed βœ“ πŸ”₯ Campfires allowed βœ• 🧺 Laundry βœ• 🎣 Fishing βœ• πŸ› Hot tub βœ• β™Ώ Accessible facilities βœ• πŸ…ΏοΈ Hardstanding pitches βœ• 🍽️ Bar/restaurant on site βœ• Play area Dog park Free wifi Family friendly Barbecues allowed Dogs allowed Dogs allowed all year Peaceful Public transport nearby Shop nearby Large (51-200 pitches) Cycling nearby Golf nearby Watersports nearby Motorhome service point Seasonal pitches ## Takeaway & food delivery Handy if you fancy a night off cooking β€” here's what delivers near this site. ### πŸ₯‘ Just Eat β€” 105 takeaways deliver to this postcode (PL9 0AE) Chicking - Plymouth β˜… 5.0 Β· Chicken, Burgers Co-op - Elburton β˜… 5.0 Β· Groceries, Alcohol Frys Grill House β˜… 5.0 Β· CafΓ©, Breakfast One Stop - Plymstock β˜… 5.0 Β· Groceries, Alcohol Co-op - Embankment Road β˜… 5.0 Β· Groceries, Alcohol Checked 26 Aug 2026 β€” always confirm on [justeat.co.uk](https://www.just-eat.co.uk/) before ordering, as coverage can change. ### πŸ›΅ Deliveroo β€” 72 restaurants nearby Wingstop McDonald's Nando's KFC Taco Bell Checked 26 Aug 2026 β€” always confirm on [deliveroo.co.uk](https://deliveroo.co.uk/) before ordering, as coverage can change. ## Nearest supermarkets Handy if you're self-catering or need to stock up on arrival. - Lidl, Plymstock 2 miles - Morrisons, Plymstock 2.2 miles - Co-op 2.7 miles - Sainsbury's 3.2 miles - Aldi, Plymouth 3.3 miles - Asda, Plymouth 5.2 miles - Tesco 5.6 miles Straight-line distances β€” the drive will be longer.

Beautiful views.Is a little steep in places. Only thing that worried me is the sheep πŸ‘ roaming around around the site. Drove my dog nuts! 5 months ago Β· via Google Tim Griffiths β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Comfortable. Spacious site on a gentle slope, with the more level pitches being at the top of the site close to the entrance and service point. The remainder of the pitches slope gently down to the bottom. The pitches are a good size with electric points. The main service point is on the service road close to the entrance and reception. We visited to watch the fireworks festival in nearby Plymouth in August (2025). We saw the fireworks looking out over the bay and towards the golf course with the fireworks in the distance. On a clear night the view isn't too bad. There were quite a few people on the site doing the same. It's about a 5 to 10 minute walk into the nearby village, which has a small shop and a village pub, which serves food and has a nice beer garden. The site is well maintained, the grass nicely cut and kept to a short length. There's also a dog walking field, that's enclosed, with several paths cut through the long grass. There are a number of pitches without electricity, offering an element of wild camping. The services are quite limited and the price is, as with most CAMC sites, on the high side. As I write this review I'm sat in France, having visited several aires and campsites that have, almost without exception, all been significantly cheaper. In fact in Annecy in the French Alps I paid €125 for 4 nights with a lakeside location, shower blocks, toilets, small shop and bike hire; though generally campsites and aires are generally cheaper on the continent. Level 10 Google reviewer with over 1,200 reviews with 2 million views plus 14,000 photos with more than 60 million views and still going strong πŸ’ͺ. My reviews aren't sponsored, they're based on mine, and often my wife's experience at an establishment whether that be a shop, restaurant, service or activity, with the aim of highlighting great service plus areas for improvement, if necessary. And boy sometimes it is necessary. Check out my other reviews 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 9 months ago Β· via Google Marian Jenkins β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Beautiful, wrll kept site. Extremely friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable wardens. a month ago Β· via Google Robert Wilson β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… A little gem of a site, overlooking Plymouth Sound. Fantastic stop over for catching the ferry from Plymouth, very peaceful. If it had shower and toilet block it would be 5 stars. On the approach the lane for approximately 1 mile can be a little challenging if it's busy with traffic. a year ago Β· via Google [More campsites in Plymouth](https://staycation.co.uk/plymouth/camping) β˜… 4.7 (153 reviews) From Β£25 per night [Book on Pitchup](https://www.pitchup.com/campsites/England/South_West/Devon/Plymouth/plymouth-sound-caravan-club-site/) [Visit website](https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/club-sites/england/devon-and-cornwall/devon/plymouth-sound-club-campsite/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=campsite) [01752 862325](tel:01752862325) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Plymouth **County** Devon **Dogs allowed** βœ… Yes **Electric hook-up** βœ… Yes **Payment** Cards, Contactless 🏨 ### Prefer a hotel nearby?
