St. Mary's Bay Holiday Camp

A Memory of Brixham.

Hello there, how very happy I was to find these photos on here of St Mary's Bay holiday camp. I, along with my sisters and friends, had lovely holidays there in 1956, 57 and 58. What a great place it was, no Blue Coats or Red Coats to entertain you, we did all that ourselves and put a show on every week. I remember singing 'Memories Are Made Of This' with my sister and friends as back -up singers, my first solo on stage and I was sooooooo scared. We met some lovely people there and the picture of the dining room brought back so many memories, as did the lounge, having spent many happy hours in both of those places. And the chalets, so small, but they were just for sleeping in, so quite adequate.

I believe that Pontins eventually took it over, but I just remember how simple everything was, and of course Brixham is such a lovely place. The actual bay is so beautiful and many happy hours were spent on the beach there. Oh, I could go on and on, but I notice that there are no other comments on here. Surely there are other people out there who went to this great place!!! I'm now 74 and live in Ajax, Ontario, Canada, but will always have beautiful memories of St. Mary's Bay.
