Brimstone non-electric grass and gravel tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch (private bathroom amenities, secluded)
Liked: My children loved running around the exclusive campsite and the composite toilet was easy to get used to. They like the robbins entering the site each day and the bats flying around at night. We could also hear a tawny owl each night, which was great. I liked the level pitches and during a heavy down pore, the site was not water-logged and drained well. We had some initial issues with the shower settings but the owner quickly resolved them in ten minutes. Which was really great and my kids continued to get showered for the day. Location-wise it's a quick drive to the beaches at Bude and Widemouth Bay.

Liked: Independent local family farm with personal touches and friendly hosts. Quiet and beautiful countryside location, only about 10/15 mins to Widemouth Bay and Bude, 40 to Tintagel. Lovely shower facilities, firepit in every pitch etc. Beautiful swallow nest in toilet/communal area, amazing to see them flying in and out

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Large pitches, well spaced apart from each other. Basic loo and shower completely sparkling and a washing up station in the simply camping field. We loved the fire pit and buying a bucket of wood was a great price. Our host was lovely very helpful and very friendly. Campsite is secluded but a quick drive from Bude. Perfect place to stay for a warm weekend in August.
Disliked: Nothing
