About the site

Perfect for family fun and seaside adventures, this lively holiday park sits just five minutes from Woolacombe Beach on the North Devon coast. It's packed with entertainment and activities for all ages, from a wave surfing simulator to bowling, arcades, high ropes, tennis courts, and adventure golf. Plus, there are regular live shows, kids' clubs, and evening entertainment! For campers, there are eight electric grass tent pitches (3m x 4m), each with handy electric hook-ups and parking nearby. Tourers can pick from a range of all-weather gravel pitches. The electric touring pitches (average 10m x 10m) include 16 amp hook-ups, while the super fully serviced pitches (8m x 6.4m up to 11.7m x 9m) also have TV aerial points, drinking water, and waste disposal right on pitch. Each has on-pitch parking and a night light, ideal for caravans, motorhomes, and campervans. There's also a wide choice of holiday homes, villas, apartments, and caravans across the park. There are even accessible and pet-friendly options, and some villas include private hot tubs for a bit of extra luxury. When it comes to swimming, everyone can enjoy a splash. Indoors, you'll find a heated pool with Swan Paddlers for little ones and a sauna for adults. Outside, in the summer months, there's another heated pool with slides, splash pads, and the exciting surf simulator. Families will love the wide range of activities available. Try your hand at footgolf, climbing, or boules, or let the kids explore Digger Land, the pirate adventure golf, and the fishing lake. There are also kids' clubs, craft sessions, and teen activities like zorbing and foam darts, so no one misses out on the fun. Guests can have breakfast, lunch, and dinner at The Beach House restaurant, or pop into The Old Mill Freehouse for a carvery, live music, and local ales. Harry's Bar is the spot for live sports (and it's dog friendly), while the American-style diner and Waves Creative Cafe are great for family treats and pottery painting. You are also welcome to cook up your own dinner, with raised BBQs allowed, though fire pits are not.
