Waterside Holiday Park - Caravan Holidays
Why you’ll love this park...
- Brand new venue and indoor swimming pool
- Picture postcard views of the South Devon coastline and ocean
- Nestled in a peaceful valley
With spectacular views of the coast and a picturesque steam railway that borders the park, enjoy a relaxing caravan holiday in Devon at Waterside Holiday Park.
From its elevated position, you'll enjoy stunning picture postcard views of the Torbay coastline, while being close to an award-winning Blue Flag beach, Goodrington Sands.
On the park, you'll find a brand-new indoor swimming pool and jet pool, along with the newly refurbished traditional-style bar and restaurant. During the summer, sit back and enjoy scenic views of the bay on the raised terrace while dining al fresco.
Waterside is known for its amazing setting, along with the famous Steam Railway that borders the park. With easy access out onto the headland, guests can walk through the tunnel under the Steam Railway to remarkable views of the Torquay coastline and coastal paths great for dog walkers and hiking.
Found on a hillside location, this park is not suitable for anyone who struggles with slopes, although holiday accommodation is based on the flattest part of the park, with parking in most areas just a short walk away. If you prefer your park to be on a flat surface, try our sister park, Dawlish Sands.
