whilst the campsite charges more than some others local to the area, it deserves too , the upkeep of the grounds is very good , cleanliness is excellent, very friendly staff, and a really nice quiet site to enjoy a restful vacation , and central to getting out and visiting other villages/towns should you wish to

Great site

This was a last minute decision to spend the weekend away. We booked this site online having never been here before. Upon arrival we checked in at reception and were directed to our pitch location. We had booked an electric hook-up on a hard stand. The pitch was of a good size with the electric hook-up very close as was the water and grey waste drain. The only issue we encountered was getting the pegs for our awning into the ground through the stones/gravel. Our pitch was a short distance to the toilet/shower block which was spacious and very clean.

A lovely half term break

What a great place to stay! Lovely scenery and facilities. Beautiful surroundings, large pitches and facilities very clean and well maintained! We wanted a quiet get away with walks near the cost and that's exactly what we found, bring your walking boots it's a good stomp! A lovely play park for small children and lots space to run about, dog walks great too.

Excellent place to stay

Hele Bay is lovely, well worth a visit. The campsite is an easy walk to the beach, coast path and local pub. The village is picturesque and unassuming. Locals are down to earth and friendly. Very relaxed spot for a holiday.

Super stay

We normally book adult only sites, especially during the school holidays, but were unable to find anything. We booked Hele Valley and it didn't disappoint. Perfect location just outside Ilfracombe but within walking distance, although it is very hilly. Site was well cared for and the shower block was spotlessly clean. The site was very quiet. There is a Spar in the petrol station that is a five minute walk away that stocks all you need. The pub opposite the garage serves lovely food and is dog friendly. There is a lovely cove just past the pub and the coastal path takes you into Ilfracombe harbour, although it is all up hill, but the views are amazing. Staff were really friendly, we didn't need anything from them the time we were there but they were always friendly if we passed them on the site Would definitely recommend and would stay again. .

A lovely site

A very enjoyable stay in fairly poor weather. The site is great, with loads of room and very well equipped facilities. Shower block was pretty new, well maintained and very clean. My only criticism was in the provision of chemical toilet waste disposal, with only one disposal point (that I saw) for all touring caravans and motorhomes, which meant quite a walk, but this was a very minor issue. Overall, very good, but be careful with access from the main road which is hilly and has some sharp bends and lots of parked cars.

Excellent touring and static park

Excellent site, top class. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay in our Motorhome at Hele. Our pitch was very large and fully serviced. The facilities were very nice and clean. The site had wonderful different types of foliage and hedging and there was a large children's play area on site, with plenty of different play items. There were plenty of statics on site as well, with large decking's and plenty of plants. The staff/owners were very friendly and helpful. We will certainly be back again in the future for a longer stay.

Nice tidy site! Small beach/pub within 10min walk, slightly longer uphill walk into Ilfracombe town (around half hour). Longer if you stop off at the nice thatched pub for a little refresher! The site facilities were basic, push button showers. You are asked to sweep the wet floor after showering which not everyone did, so they can be quite wet before you start. The shower room was not very warm, although the water temp was fine. It was nice to have a toilet, sink and shower in the one cubicle, although the shower cubicle could do with some shelving to place items on rather than using the floor, and maybe an extra hook for hanging clothing/towel, also no grab rails if required. There was a bench in the cubicle. Friendly staff who gave information on arrival about local places to visit.

Lovely, tidy campsite. Very clean toilets. Only problem was all water taps were set too low and couldn't take the round barrels for caravans. We saw people filling water barrels with lemonade bottles or small containers, it was difficult and so slow.

Very quiet and clean site

We went here with our motorhome. If you're coming down the main road (hill) with the site on the right, I would advise to continue to the pub on the corner and do a U turn so you're turning left down the little hill. Once at the site, you notice straight away how clean and well presented the site is. Lovely, friendly welcome where I was given maps of the local area and instructions to my pitch. Facilities all spotless, well recommended for anyone wanting a lovely, peaceful stay in a beautiful site.

Two night stay

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Large Fully Serviced Touring and Motorhome PitchesAug 2024

Staff very welcoming on arrival. Site immaculately clean. Toilet block excellent with nice warm showers, lovely farmhouse café at the end of site for home cooked breakfast. Bus at bottom of road or it's a hilly 20 minute walk into the town. Couldn't fault anything about the site, we just wished we stayed longer to explore further afield, well recommended.

Great campsite, very friendly staff

The campsite is walking distance from Ilfracombe centre, also the coastal walk which is an uphill climb, but worth the visit. Just for the views. The campsite is well-run by professional staff, who immediately make you welcome. Toilet blocks and showers were very clean and well thought-out, they have toilets, showers and handwash basins in the shower cubicles. I would certainly recommend this site for a great stay.

Walking distance to Ilfracombe

This campsite was within walking distance to Ilfracombe, coastal path, beach and pub. The shower/toilet block was very clean and secure. The whole site was well laid out and very clean, the people in reception were very helpful. We had great weather during our stay, we visited Lundy island and explored the area, which is stunning.

Very good. Spotless toilet block. Park is very well kept. Walk to the beach took about 30 minutes from the van where it was pitched. Bus stops will take you to local beaches.

Lovely site, well maintained with spotless facilities

Lovely, well maintained site. Spotless facilities. Our standard pitch was a generous size. Lovely nature trail walk that dropped down into the village. The beach is small but pretty. Bus stop just outside the site. We used the bus most days.
