About Higher Shorston Lakes
This spot is ideal for people looking for a peaceful setting but not too far from civilisation. The site is within walking distance of Holsworthy which offers full amenities and is also on the trail of the South West Coast Path in the Bude area. Only three pitches are available for members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club (you must be a member and able to give your membership number on booking), giving a lovely community feel. All pitches have pretty views across the valley. They all have electric hook-ups. There are also holiday lodges available, sleeping between 4 and 6 in multiple bedrooms, some with en-suite bathrooms. Inside all lodges, you will find an electric wood burner, electricity, microwave and decking area with furniture.
