About the site


Enjoy a relaxing seaside stay at this scenic Devon campsite. Guests will have views across the Hangman Hills of Exmoor, overlooking Combe Martin Bay and the Bristol Channel, with the coastline of Wales visible on clear days. For days at the beach, Combe Martin Beaches and Hele Beach are within a five minute drive. The site offers a total of 50 individually marked pitches, suitable for tents, motorhomes, caravans and campervans up to 8m in length. Most offer a 10 amp electric hook up, with some also including a hardstanding area. For those hiking or travelling by motorcycle, there are smaller grass pitches for up to two guests. The rest of the pitches allow up to six people. If you want to leave the tent pegs at home, there is a simple, off-grid bunkhouse cabin. Sleeping up to four, the cabin includes two double beds (bedding not provided), a table, chairs and a battery powered lamp. The pitches are dog friendly, with up to three dogs allowed to join you for your stay. There is even a designated walking field where they can be let off the lead. Do note, the cabin is pet free. Evenings can be spent enjoying a BBQ, just please ensure it is raised from the ground. Open fires are not permitted.

Little Meadow Campsite is open from 20/03 to 30/09.
