People often ask us where the name Sugar Park comes from.
The answer is quite simple.
Long before it became a campsite, this field was known locally as Sugar Park, and the name has stayed with it ever since.🗺️
The land has been part of Cath’s family, the Rogers family, for around 50 years, spanning at least three generations of farming life here in the South Hams.
Today, people come here to camp, walk the coastal path, star gaze, switch off enjoy the beaches and take in the views across Start Bay.
But at its heart, Sugar Park remains a back-to-basics family-owned campsite with deep roots in this special corner of Devon.
Set within the South Hams National Landscape (formerly known as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), we love sharing it with visitors and giving people the chance to enjoy this special part of the South Hams for themselves.
