Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring PitchesSep 2025

Very friendly and helpful reception, site empty at end of season so allowed us to swap pitches. Ate in the bar on first night, food good and pleasant, clean environment The male showers were functional, but very worn, with many broken doors and it wasn't clear if they had been cleaned. Again, I guess it was end of season, so may explain wear and tear. The other toilets appeared cleaner. The shop appeared to be well stocked and there were a number of takeaways, as well as a main entertainment complex. Absolutely fantastic location, 5 minute walk from Croyde Bay beach. I would expect it to be heaving in the summer, but in autumn it was fine.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesSep 2025

We stayed for my birthday to get in some bodyboarding. The arrival was not what we expected, having said we would be arriving late approx 8:30pm, reception was closed and we drove round the site before having to phone to find out what to do. Eventually found security guards in the arcade who checked us in and gave us a map of the grounds. The location to the beach is amazing and all of the facilities were excellent, toilets, warm showers, hairdryers and outdoor wetsuit showers too. Unfortunately due to a massive storm that blew our tents down, we could only stay for the one night. Again, we did go to reception to inform them we were leaving, but it was closed at about 5:30pm. We would stay here again and recommend to others, but we feel that reception needs to be more regularly available.

Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2025

This was my first ever camping trip with my two young boys (age 11 and 9) for 3 nights. Location - excellent, right next to Croyde Bay beach literally 2-3 minutes walk and then a short 10 minute walk into Croyde (we visiting The Thatch pub a couple of times and a nice, pleasurable stroll) Value for money - pretty good, we used the swimming pool (The Cascade) a couple of times and also visited the entertainment one evening, which had various acts on - quite enjoyable) Standard of service - overall was good, a very few interactions with staff members but what I experienced was acceptable. Nothing above and beyond just standard service. One of the swimming team on reception was hard work to talk to but nothing too bad. Facilities - very good, shop and food outlets looked good and as I said entertainment was enjoyable. Cleanliness - I'm afraid this was the worst part. The showers and toilets were borderline unacceptable. Tiles falling off walls, dirty showers and toilets that didn't flush. I didn't see one cleaner throughout my whole time and given the volume of people that use the facilities, there should've been more done to keep them clean. A real shame, the showers need a desperate refurb, as do the toilets. Really disappointing and I didn't look forward to my daily routine at all.
