We can hardly believe Summer has been and gone already!
Highlights of Summer 2019 include welcoming Exeter Chiefs and Exeter City Football Club to Ladram Bay for team training days – we look forward to supporting the Exeter Chiefs players in Japan at the upcoming Rugby World Cup.
We’re delighted to have been a part of the recent local project to create a special place in Otterton to remember the local servicemen lost in the First World War. Now that both the young Oak tree and circular bench have been planted & installed within the Stantyway Recreation ground we’re certain this delightful spot will be enjoyed by many for years to come.
Planning is now well underway for season 2020 and will include the installation of new solar panels in the winter to lessen our carbon footprint. These will be fitted to our key facility buildings and it is estimated will save a predicted 171 tonnes/year of CO2!
After our recent marine wildlife visitors we’re all focussed to do our bit to protect our beach and bay to allow maximum enjoyment for all. Introducing the newest on-park green initiative our One Ton Plastic Challenge. Help us hit our target of plastic collected from the beach and kindly deposit the waste within the large bin adjacent to our new sign on the slipway.
The Three Rocks
Great to hear so much positive response from you regarding our specials this year – the Sea Bass dishes and Pizzas have proven especially popular. We’ll soon be busy reviewing this year’s menu and bar stock, so please continue to share feedback and suggestions with the team. With this in mind, we are running a competition for a new addition to our 2020 menu. The winning suggestion will be placed on next year’s menu and the winner will have their first meal of the season on us (T+C’s apply). Please send any of your ideas to Kayleigh and Matt (kayleighwilliams@ladrambay.co.uk).

Are you dreaming of your own holiday home in Devon? This picturesque region, known for its stunning coastline & landscapes, offers a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. However, purchasing a holiday home is a significant decision that requires careful consideration. Below, we outline key factors to guide you in making an informed choice when looking at holiday homes for sale in Devon.
Location, Location, Location
Accessibility: Consider how easy it is to travel to and from your potential holiday home. Proximity to major roads, airports, and public transport can affect your usage and sublet potential.
Surroundings: Are you looking for a serene countryside retreat, a beachside haven, or a holiday caravan in the heart of a bustling village? Devon offers diverse settings to match your lifestyle preferences.
Local Amenities: Explore the availability of local shops, restaurants, healthcare facilities, and entertainment options. The convenience of local amenities can significantly enhance your stay.
Caravan Type and Features
Size and Layout: Think about how much space you need, considering the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas. A well-thought-out layout is crucial to comfort, especially if you plan to host friends or rent it out.
Maintenance: Evaluate the condition of the caravan or lodge and consider ongoing maintenance requirements. Newer units may offer easier upkeep.
Facilities and Extras: Features such as parking spaces, outdoor areas, and on-site facilities (e.g., swimming pools and access to leisure activities) can add significant value and enjoyment to your holiday home.
Dog Friendly: Is the park dog friendly? Would you like to bring your four-legged friend away on a dog-friendly holiday in Devon?
Financial Implications
Potential for Sublet Income: If you’re considering renting out your holiday home when it‘s not in use, research the offers available by subletting directly. Remember to account for periods of personal use.
Insurance and Security: Holiday homes, particularly those in coastal areas, may have specific insurance requirements. Additionally, consider the security of the lodge or caravan, especially if it will be unoccupied for periods.
Lifestyle Fit
Community and Culture: Engage with the local community on-site to ensure the area feels like a good fit for you and your family. A sense of belonging can enhance your enjoyment and satisfaction.
Activities and Interests: Consider whether the area supports your hobbies and interests, whether it’s hiking, surfing, art, or dining out. Devon’s diverse landscapes and communities offer a wide range of activities year-round.
