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.

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Caravan PitchesAug 2024
Although a large site, it was a lovely, peaceful site with everything geared towards children. For us, this was great as we took our 2 grandsons aged 6 and 10.
Took them swimming twice which you have to book, but this stops the pool being overcrowded. Water lovely and warm and changing facilities immaculately clean. Nightly entertainment available, the only downside during our stay was that the restaurant was not open due to unforeseen circumstances?
