Location was not the best, it took too long to get to it down the winding roads and I would definitely not try and get there in the dark..

We have just returned from a 4 night stay at Challaborough and it was fantastic. The caravan we were allocated was clean and spacious and even though we were next to the pool and main entrance, there was little noise. The beach is lovely as is the walk along to Burgh Island. We cant comment on the pool or the... More

Booked last minute, never heard of the place before but had a brilliant break - the location is fantastic, the caravan whilst a bit tired was fine for us, a quiet break in a fantastic location, friendly staff and great service, can't wait to visit again. We just hope that the staff can arrange such fab weather next time we... More

This was our third visit to Challaborough Bay Holiday Park, and once again it did'nt disappoint. The park itself is always clean, tidy and well maintained. Our caravan was cleaned to a very high standard,(well done Kerry). All the staff work incredibly hard and are always very pleasant and polite. The park is situated right on the beach, so is... More

We stayed here with our daughter and two gandsons, so had a 3 bedroom caravan. The caravans are a bit tired looking from both the outside and the inside, but had everything you would need for a comfortable weekend away. Lovely hot water, and the weather wasnt brilliant so the lovely central heating was welcome. The sea is a stones... More

Small, quiet, safe and friendly caravan site, which was perfect for us. Most caravans I think are privately-owned and not rented-out, so relatively quiet. Kids' entertainers were brilliant with the kids, especially Nat and Dave, although programmes were not exactly as portrayed in the programmes, shorter duration during the daytime and only a basic level of equipment and no beach...
