Diggerland Campsite Verbeer Manor

Diggerland Campsite is a touring park set in the grounds of Verbeer Manor near Willand and Cullompton in South Devon, sitting right next to the Diggerland theme park. The location is easy to reach, just a few minutes from the M5 at junctions 27 and 28, and it puts you within an easy 30 mile drive or cycle of both Exmoor and Dartmoor. All the touring pitches for caravans, campervans, motorhomes and tents are flat, level and well sheltered with good drainage, and electric hook-up is available on some, so pre-booking those early is sensible. During the peak summer season a separate grassy paddock field opens for tent campers, rallies, groups, scouts and guides, with no marked pitches or hook-ups. Every pitch is on grass, as there are no hardstandings. This suits families visiting the attraction or anglers heading for the neighbouring Diggerlakes carp fishing, and it is less suited to anyone wanting seclusion or an evening campfire, as open fires are not permitted. A petrol station at the top of the drive sells basic groceries. The site opens roughly April to November, with tent pitches from £14 a night for two and caravans or motorhomes from £26, all booked and paid online in advance, as turning up without a booking carries a surcharge.
