Hill Pond Caravan and Camping Park is a 40-pitch touring park at Clyst St Mary, two miles from Junction 30 of the M5 and about six miles from Exeter in East Devon. It takes tents, caravans and motorhomes, with electric hook-ups, hardstanding pitches and a toilet block with showers, plus laundry, washing-up and chemical disposal facilities on site. The park is open all year and welcomes dogs, so it works as both a quick motorway-adjacent overnight stop and a longer base for exploring the coast. Despite sitting close to the M5, it looks out over green fields and trees in the East Devon countryside, and the main Exeter to Sidmouth bus route passes nearby with buses roughly every half hour, which makes car-free days into Exeter or out to the coast genuinely doable. Crealy Adventure Park is about five minutes away for families, the Jurassic Coast beaches at Exmouth and Sidmouth are a short drive, and Exeter's cathedral and shops are within easy reach. A local shop, two farm shops and three pubs sit nearby, with supermarkets within five miles. It suits tourers and families who want an easy-access, well-connected pitch rather than a remote hideaway or a big holiday complex with pools and entertainment. Book direct with Hill Pond Caravan and Camping Park, and mention which pitch type you need when you enquire.
