Watermouth Valley Camping Park Reviews

Locals visit

We live locally but had relatives staying there so booked a last minute pitch. The weather turned awful on the Friday so didn't actually pitch up until Saturday morning. The staff were very accommodating with our requests. It is a really lovely site. Clean facilities, friendly staff, well kept pitches.

Wonderful place to camp

This was our second visit to watermouth valley. The staff are fantastic and went the extra mile to accommodate us. The facilities are spotless and plentiful. The site is well kept with a variety of pitches which are all well spaced. Within walking distance of a good pub although a good variety of food available on site. We are returning next month.

Immaculately clean friendly campsite

The owners of this campsite go the extra mile in so many ways. The campsite is incredibly clean, which is difficult when it's such a busy place. There are very good play facilities for children and animals to look at. There is a very popular takeaway with different choices each night and a little bar. It's possible to buy drinks and pastries during the day. The staff are all very welcoming. There is a pub which can be reached easily by walking through the campsite. The camping places at the top of the hill have stunning views but are a steep walk from the toilets. Those at the bottom of the field are well laid out camping places, many surrounded by pretty hedges and trees for extra privacy. However, those are not only close to the facilities, they are also close to the road so the noise of traffic is very audible most of the time but luckily, not much later in the evening - until about 7 or so. That is the only downside of this lovely campsite.

Outstanding

I could go on about Watermouth Valley Camping - in short fantastic.

Exceeded expectations

This was our first camping trip and we absolutely loved it! We had our tent on the seafront and had a spectacular view. Located directly on the coastal path we had a lovely few walks with the dog which everyone enjoyed. The landscape was beautiful and was so well looked after too. Facilities were as expected, clean toilet/shower blocks. Sadly they were a little walk away from our tent down a hill which meant the walk back to the tent was all uphill - a closer toilet block would have been appreciated. Food and drinks on site were nice, staff were very pleasant. I'd definitely visit again!

Lovely campsite

The campsite is lovely. All the facilities are brilliant. Would definitely come back.

Great campsite

Lovely family run campsite, with friendly staff. Great pitches and facilities. Bar and takeaway hut served great food and drink.

Fabulous campsite!

Superb campsite which exceeded our expectations. Large and well-tended pitches with a cosy feel. Excellent facilities to suit all ages. Extremely professional reception staff who could answer any question. Very highly recommended, we will be back!

Fantastic stay!

Clean, quiet, but disappointed no one was in reception after 4pm.

Site's response

There is always one of the family on site, just not stood behind the desk. You can use either of the phone numbers on the back of the site map provided if you need us, we are always available.

Fantastic

Fantastic campsite, great views and very clean, will be staying here again.

Lovely site

What a lovely site. We liked it so much stayed an extra night. Great location. Excellent facilities. Really friendly welcoming family run. They keep it lovely here. Dog walking field is huge. Pitches are varied and all a really good size. The little bar & food truck is well priced, sociable and good food. Just a 5 min walk to a good pub too. Highly recommend and will definitely return. Good value for money. Great for families, couples and small groups.

Great stay despite the weather!

Good location and great facilities. The small bar and food truck on site was a nice bonus for us arriving late. Toilets and showers were plentiful and spotless. The site is in a lovely wooded area by the coast and we enjoyed the hilly walk to Ilfracombe.

Lovely welcoming site

A friendly welcome on arrival, a convenient water tap as you arrive to fill up at. Nice spacious pitches in very well kept grounds. Plenty of clean bathrooms to use. There's a bar and seating area that was popular and food is available some evenings. Sawmills pub is accessible from the campsite, which is a nice place to grab a drink and a meal. The bus stop is not far from the entrance, so all in all, all needs are catered for!

Lovely site

All round fantastic site.

Highly recommended!

Absolutely gorgeous views! Clean facilities, lovely, family-friendly place to stay!

Lovely site awesome views!

Lovely views, amazing.

Amazing site

What an amazing site. Clean and tidy with loads to offer. From beautiful sea views, play ground and play room for children and a bar for adults. Every day a different food van. Quiet with no large groups, just lovely families. BBQ and bonfire possible. Shop on site had everything we needed. Very clean and well maintained toilets and showers. Simply perfect, we will be back.

Family friendly and great location

Great site with great facilities. Loads to do locally and the site is in a great location. Would recommend. Went with my daughter (9) and son (11). They made some good friends with other children and enjoyed playing at the campsite.

One of the best campsites I've been to

Absolutely loved this campsite! Superb, family run and a great vibe. Caters for everyone, from solo walkers in one person tent to full blown motorhome set ups, hard standing, grass pitches with electric to open fields, plenty of choice. The views are some of the best I've experienced from a campsite. Some of the pitches can be a little exposed but the views more than make up for it. There's food on-site, it's own little bar, games room and outdoor table tennis. There's a great pub at one end of the campsite and short walk to the harbour with an amazing cafe. It's right on the coastal path and only a short walk to Broadsands beach, which unfortunately wasn't accessible at the time of our stay due to a landslide, but this didn't dampen the experience. We've left wanting to go back, and will. There's not many places I'd say that about.

Lovely family campsite

We had a lovely week here. Pitches were allocated and we were in the valley. The pitches are a decent size. The site was very busy, but there was a lovely atmosphere. It's a great place for young families with plenty to keep them occupied on site - big park, space for football, badminton, table tennis and a small hut with table football and small pool tables. There is a food hut on site that does a different cuisine each night and gorgeous home made cakes and cream tea from 3pm. There's also a little bar on site. Even though it was busy, it wasn't rowdy and was quiet after 10pm every night. Sadly, the access to the beach was closed due to a landslide, but the site is next to Watermouth harbour and a short drive / bus ride from Ilfracombe and Combe Martin. It's on the coastal path for those that like walking but be aware, it is very hilly! The staff at the site are very friendly and around most of the day should you have a problem. All in all, a great time away.

Great family run campsite!

We loved the site. We had a pitch in the valley which was sheltered and close to the facilities as requested. We had an issue with people using our pitch as a cut through to the bar behind us, so had a chat with the owners and they quickly attended to this for us which was appreciated. Our children loved playing on their bikes around the site and it felt very safe. Food from the food hut was delicious and we loved the community feel of the site. Toilet block was outstanding, with private rooms which were kept spotless, there is a more traditional block further up if you prefer those. They do get busy, so recommend going early if you can. Pitches are large but ours was slightly sloping so recommend levelling blocks - the site is in a valley as the name suggests, there's a short steep hill up to the viewpoint over the sea but it's worth it for the view! Access to the beach is currently closed due to a landslide on the steps, and is unlikely to be open for some time. Overall, we loved the site!

Loved it

Best campsite yet, very clean, everything you need and staff very friendly. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be staying here again

Fantastic campsite

Everything about this place is perfect. A warm welcome and the attention to detail and cleanliness is first class. They manage the balance between providing great facilities but you still feel like you're in a very unspoilt location. We stayed in the Valley part and loved it - good access to the main facilities and less than a minute to the top of the campsite for the views. Loved the bar in a horsebox. Good bus service outside. Right on the coast path so perfect for walking.
