About the site


The park is set amongst 500 acres of rolling countryside and mature woodland providing fabulous views and a safe environment for a fun family holiday. It's a mile from the nearest main road, along a long private drive. The site is home to plenty of pitches whether you're in a tent, caravan, or motorhome! There are even ten dog friendly camping pods too. There are both grass and hardstanding pitches available. The hardstanding has a grass area for your awning or if you'd rather have a gravelled space then there are also 50 all-weather pitches which also have a tap and drainage. All pitches are of a generous size and come with 10 amp electric hook up and water taps are never too far away. It is worth noting that some pitches are sloped while others are more level. Or, if you fancy glamping, opt for one of the dog friendly camping pods, equipped with a double bed, bunk beds, a table and chairs, heating, lighting and electric sockets. Bedding and towels are not provided, so please bring your own or hire bedding from the site. There is plenty to do nearby, whether it's a day exploring Exmoor National Park or relaxing on Woolacombe beach, both can be reached within a 20 minute drive. Dogs are also welcome.

VW-Type Campervan - All Weather PitchesSep 2025

Motorhome - All Weather PitchesAug 2025

Location is rural with Ilfracombe approx 7 miles away so if in a motorhome it is a choice of leaving site or a costly taxi ride at £30 each way. The facilities are excellent toilets and showers were always clean. With Elsan emptying space, grey water waste and clean water all available. The shop is geared to camping accessories rather than food but sufficient. The pub others breakfast, lunch and dinner with entertainment on an evening.

Very good and clean campsite
