Devon park makes a pitch for on-the-move luxury lovers

THE COOL IMAGE of motorhomes is putting the heat on demand at a Devon holiday park where £200,000 has just been invested in new super-pitches.

Family-owned Cofto create the 48 five-star pitches after demand often outstripped supply this summer.

They will now be available year-round for guests arriving in torhomes, including the increasingly popular and larger RVs (recreational vehicles).

The chic image of motorhomes, believe manufacturers, is being buoyed up by their association with music festivals, film sets, and the spirit of laid-back living.

There are now 74 super-pitches for moto Dawlish Warren’s Blue Flag beach.

“We’ve known for a long time that demand for high-quality hard-standing pitches was on the rise, and so we decided to cater for this market.

Just minutes from Dawlish Warren’s acclaimed beach, the park is set in 80 acres of tranquil countryside

“Feedback on our new super-pitches has been fantastic, not least because the brick paver and gravel combination makes it much easier to set up an awning and outdoor furniture.

“At the same time, we also made additional nature-friendly initiatives by rewilding large swathes of the park, creating new wildlife habitats and enhancing biodiversity,” said Helen.

Earlier this year, the park scooped the top spot in the caravan and campsite category of this summer’s iTravel Staycation Awards 2021 organised by national newspaper iNews.

The park was congratulated by BBC Countryfile presenter Sean Fletcher when he announced its triumph in the newspaper’s virtual award ceremony.

Facilities at the park include a heated indoor pool and hydrotherapy loungers, a gym, steam room, sauna, fitness studio, restaurant, pub, play areas, sports wall and outdoor pools.

Guests also have access to the golden sands of Dawlish Warren beach and nature reserve.
