A Devonshire caravan park is capitalising on the burgeoning trend for camping with grandparents; otherwise known as ‘gramping’. Woodovis Park, located on the borders of Dartmoor National Park, is offering campers with a +50 year old in their party £4 off their pitch fees per night.

A spokesperson from the park explained the initiative was rolled out in low season last year, and has been such a success, the firm decided to extend the offer throughout the peak season as well.

“The special ‘Over 50s’s Rate’ was introduced last year for low and mid season holidays, and has proved so popular it’s now been rolled out through high season too, ensuring school and summer breaks with ‘the olds’ can be just as rewarding,” they said.

The park has also introduced a loyalty scheme to reward repeat customers. Campers receive one stamp for each night they stay at the park, and eight stamps entitles visitors a £25 discount off their next booking.

Woodovis Park is set among 14 acres of woodland on the Cornish/Devonshire border with a range of on-site facilities, including an indoor swimming pool and a new Phychiotherm sauna.
