We know that you probably have questions about your Hoburne holiday so we have compiled a list of the most popular questions that we get asked. If you have any questions that are not covered here then please feel free to contact us.

Booking & Payment
  • Do you accept single sex parties?

    Our Holiday Parks primarily cater for family holidays, bookings for single sex parties of three or more can only be accepted via prior arrangement with the General Manager.

    We suggest that you call the park of your choice with the details of how many are in your party, their ages and details to see if there is availability for your holiday. You will need to inform us of any changes to the booking as soon as you are aware of any such changes as we reserve the right to refuse entry if the booking details do not match who arrives on park.

  • Can we book more than one unit of accommodation at the same time?

    It's best to do this by calling us on 01425 282358 and to run through your requirements with a member of the booking team. Whilst we can take larger bookings, we cannot necessarily guarantee that they will all be located in the same area of the park due to availability, but we will endeavour to meet your expectations and let you know if this will not be possible.

Some parks are more suitable than others for those with mobility needs. If your party includes someone with special needs, please call us on 01425 282358 to check availability. 

  • Can I make changes to my booking?

    You have two options to pay off any remaining balance of your holiday. Firstly, if you booked online in the first instance, you can use the 'My Account' area and pay off your balance when it is convenient to you. However, balances must be fully paid 60 days before the commencement of your holiday.

    Secondly, you can call our bookings team on 01425 282358 and they will take any card payments over the phone.

  • Will I incur any charges if I cancel my booking?

    We appreciate that sometimes things happen and you need to cancel your holiday. If you need to cancel your booking please let us know immediately by telephone and then send us a confirmatory letter.

    We separate out our regular and dog-friendly holiday accommodation to ensure that there is a choice for holidaymakers who love  to bring their dog with them and also to reduce any allergen issues by keeping the accommodation types separate.

    You must make sure your dog/s are on leads at all times whilst on the park, and please make sure to pick up after them and use the supplied dog waste bins found around our holiday parks.

    Dogs are not allowed to enter our entertainment complexes, with the exception of assistance or guide dogs.

    Our parks adhere to the Dangerous Dogs Act 2014, so if you own a breed that is listed in this act you will not be able to bring them on to our holiday parks.

You can request them at the time of booking on the phone or find them in the Extras section when booking online - there is a small charge to hire these. If you have left your cot or high chair at home, you may hire them from reception on arrival, too.

Caravan, lodge & cottage holidays in Devon

When you think of the typical English seaside resort, South Devon is what you imagine. They call it ’The English Riviera’ for its mild climate, shady palm trees and the mile after mile of golden beaches and picturesque villages that dot its coastline.

There’s more to it than seaside attractions though. Head up to nearby Dartmoor, and things couldn’t be more different, with a rugged landscape of moorland walks topped with spectacular stone tors to explore.

You'll also find theme parks, animal sanctuaries, castles, stately homes and more, making it the perfect place for a holiday that the whole family will enjoy.

Whichever accommodation you opt for at our Devon holiday park, we have both dog-friendly and hot tub options available.
