Coombe View Farm
FavouriteWe have two mobile homes with sea views and small enclosed lawns (ideal for small children and pets) to let on a small campsite that's ideal for children with plenty of space to play. We have space for touring caravans and motorhomes, with electric hook-ups and space for camping.
The campsite is on a farm in a rural position, yet only approximately one and a half miles from the beach and the Jurassic Coast, acclaimed as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
We keep a small flock of sheep and the lambs are a delight to see in the spring. We have a herd of Exmoor ponies, which foal in May and there are pigs, geese, a variety of chickens and three goats. There is an assortment of wildlife in the fields and hedgerows, not to mention an abundance of birds. There is a good bus service about five-minute walk along the lane, and the X53 service goes from Exeter to Bournemouth two hourly.
Nearby attractions and activities
The pretty village of Branscombe is spread out along the valley. There are attractions such as the Old Forge, The Old Bakery, Water Mill and the Church. There is a pub at each end of the village providing good ale and food. There are many lovely country walks, including the coastal footpath to Beer or Sidmouth via Salcombe Regis. Branscombe beach has a café providing snacks, ice creams and gifts.
Beer is an attractive fishing village with a sheltered beach and limestone cliffs, a real suntrap, with good café with all day breakfasts. Fresh fish is sold on the beach. Pecorama provides gardens/play park and train ride, besides model railway display. Beer Quarry Caves have interesting guided tours.
Seaton has an open beach, a small supermarket and other useful shops including the Axe Yacht Club and the harbour. There is a tram which runs beside the river Axe to Colyton which is well known for the variety of birds to be seen in the estuary.
Sidmouth is a delightful seaside town approximately seven miles from our campsite. Sidmouth is host to a Folk Festival each year, usually in the first week of August, when the town is buzzing with people from all over the world, cinema and the Manor Pavilion for live theatre.
Exeter is approximately 20 miles away. This historic cathedral city has many interesting sites to visit and has all the usual high street shops.

Liked: clean, owner friendly. Disliked: washing facilities although reasonably clean were basic and in need of modernization. bare concrete floors in shower rooms, bit like a stable block. A bit too remote for the kids. |
