Watermouth Valley Camping Park Reviews

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.

Great campsite, fantastic location

Really nice campsite, lots of great facilities for people of all ages. Amazing location with a wonderful walk to Combe Martin. The campsite had a nice chilled vibe to it. Unfortunately Broadsands beach is closed until November 2025.

Fab weekend

We had a lovely weekend. Great views, peaceful, lovely food from the site takeaway.

Ocean view campsite

Great campsite. Lots of amenities and everything was clean!

Perfect

My friend and I were walking the South West coastal path and it was a perfect location but will go back with my husband for a quiet weekend too.

Camping

Lovely campsite, would definitely recommend 👍

Great Capsite

Great campsite. Would definitely stay here again.

Facilities spot on

Pizza to die for, cocktails made with love. Excellent showers, plenty of toilets. Amazing staff. Motorbike friendly. Pub 5min away. Flat ground for tents. Clean. Well looked after site.

Lovely stay!

Had a brilliant stay here! Had a beautiful sea view, and large spacious pitch. Services on site were brilliant, pizza night was our favourite! Would highly recommend and will definitely be staying here again!

What a great site on the North Devon coast

The site was ideally located as the South West Coastal Path runs around the border - meaning you are just a few minutes away from walking along the path. There is a lovely bar that has a decent selection of alcoholic / non-alcoholic drinks, at very reasonable prices. The on-site food offering changes daily, but would recommend a Sat night stay just to sample the pizzas - home-made, low prices and so enjoyable. There are two separate toilet / shower blocks, which is fine when the site is less than half-full.

Site's response

Thank you for the kind words, does mean a lot to us as a family and we will pass on to Darren and Amanda who do the food for us. Next time visit the 3rd shower block to complete the set!

Happy camping

Lovely site, will definitely be back.

Highly recommended

We have enjoy the campsite a lot. Highly recommended.

Excellent family site

The site is in a prestigious area with a fire pub/restaurant within 300m and Watermouth Bay Café within 300m in the opposite direction. On site food, bar and well stocked shop make this an easy site to stay at for camper vans and motor homes. The site is well laid out and in some areas has magnificent ocean and harbour views. Sadly the Ocean View area has no electric hook ups and the areas close by that do place you some 150 yds up a steep grassy bank from the ablutions and toilets etc. There is a slightly less demanding road route of about 200m. For those less agile a trip to the loo can be quite testing. The lower pitches in the valley are close to the amenities but put you on the main commuter route for the site. Also, the sun moves off earlier than the hill side pitches. All pitches are of generous proportions and grass, and there is an excellent children's play area within woodland by a stream.

An amazing stay

The location of this site is perfect. The owners and those that work onsite go above and beyond to ensure an amazing stay, and it is certainly that 🙂 It's very clean, the pitches are generous, the showers and washrooms are superb. The shop onsite is great vale for money which provide BBQ's and fire pits for a cosy night around your pitch or, if you prefer, the food provided onsite is very tasty. You can also treat yourself to a tipple or two from the bar they have there, again, both reasonably priced. Thank you all for a wonderful stay (our second visit) and we will definitely be back again 😎😎

Ideal location

Loved our stay. Probably my favourite campsite. Lovely location. Couldn’t fault my stay.

Excellent!

Absolutely faultless in every aspect. The gentleman at reception and his sister were helpful and charming at all times. I can't recommend this site enough!

Excellent site

Excellent site, wasn't expecting it to be that good for the price. Very clean, staff brill and in the middle of everything. Will definitely book again. Very family friendly.

Fantastic site on the coast path

Great site, big but not overfilled, and with plenty of facilities. Owners were very helpful and friendly.

Excellent campsite

Excellent! Lovely facilities, great location 😊

Fantastic site

So pleased with this campsite, really clean and the staff and owners were great. Facilities spot on especially with the addition of the pop up food and bar. Most importantly the kids loved it, the play area is brilliant. This was our 7th NCT friends camping trip, we will definitely return.

Great location and views

Great site with fabulous views from the top field. Fantastic facilities even had a pop up bar in high season with food available to order. If we had to nick pick, the path down to the facilities was grass and steep, so we chose to go round the longer route to avoid slipping. It did not deter from our overall experience and would definitely use again and recommend.
