Electric, optional tent pitch

  • Peaceful site on a smallholding five miles from Bideford
  • Wakeboarding park, surf lessons and amusement parks a short drive away
  • Alpacas, goats and horses to meet on site
Park yourself here for easy access to smashing Devon beaches, the South West Coast Path and the Tarka Trail cycle path, plus watersports lessons and kid-friendly visitor attractions such as The Big Sheep, The Milky Way, Atlantis Adventure Park and Quince Honey Farm. Set within a properly peaceful smallholding, Broad Park Camping and Glamping is a warm and friendly park five miles west of the handsome and historic harbour town of Bideford, where there are independent shops, restaurants serving up local produce, and a pretty riverside quay. While the site lies a handy mile or so off of the A39, it's quiet around this splendid spot. Amenities are well thought out: there's a kitchenette with a microwave, a kettle, a toaster, a fridge and a freezer, in a room with cards, board games and tourist info leaflets. Milk, fizzy drinks, bottled water, chocolate and locally made luxury ice creams can all be bought at the site's small honesty shop. Foodwise, if you want to grill up a gourmet feast, barbecues are allowed; fire baskets are also available for hire, and kindling and logs are available to buy on site for toasty campfires under the north Devon night sky. Friendly dogs are welcome here at Broad Park but must be kept on a lead at all times; for a list of all the dog-friendly beaches nearby, just ask your cordial hosts, who'll be more than happy to oblige.

Liked The area was amazing, so much scenery. Easy to find and not far away from day trips, beaches and entertainment for the children! Lovely little on site farm which the children enjoyed feeding the animals. The amenities shop was perfect for a quick snack and a nice place to sit and relax. We enjoyed it so much we asked to stay for another night. The toilets and showering facilities were amazing, cleaned regularly and lovely hot shower. The owners were very accommodating. Clear and precise communications.

Liked Everything! The pitch set up was fab, with 2 pitches per area and a picnic bench at each one. Nikki's message before we arrived made everything super clear and was very welcoming. All the communal areas (showers, toilets and amenities room) were always clean and tidy. The amenities room was a pleasant surprise, there was a toaster, kettle and microwave We could use. Also the fire bowl hire (before the government alert) snacks, soft drinks, and goat feed with honesty box/Bacs was a lovely addition. We loved being able to feed the goats too. My youngest was constantly next to them when we were on site. We will definitely be back and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone. Thanks Nikki for a wonderful week!

Disliked Sometimes there was a bit of a wait for the toilet as there was 2 women's, 1 men's and one family/unisex loo with 2 toilets in. But it wasn't a huge problem and certainly wouldn't prevent us returning.

Liked Amazing couple of nights! Was so peaceful and had everything we needed
The site is just wha we wanted and our kids was so happy to be able to see and feed the animals which ticked an extra box for us.
We will definitely be booking a few more trips here!

Local attractions

Be sure to bring your buckets, spades and beach towels, because you're going to be getting a lot of beach action with a stay here: just outside the Hartland Heritage Coast, the site gives you very easy access to miles of spectacular coastline and award-winning beaches – a short drive will bring you to the sands and sea of Clovelly, Westward Ho!, Appledore, Hartland and Saunton Sands. Also nearby is North Devon Wake Park, where you can get wakeboarding lessons and bounce, slip, slide and clamber on the aqua park’s trampolines, slides, logs, running mats and climbing frames. Surfing lessons can also be had over at Westward Ho! nearby. There’s a wealth of fun places to take little bloomers to within easy reach too: The Big Sheep, The Milky Way, Atlantis Adventure Park and the buzztastic Quince Honey Farm, where you can investigate the lives of bees through interactive exhibits housing more than 20 colonies using bee cams and looking glasses. If you’re into long walks along scenic coastline, Broad Park Camping and Glamping is near the South West Coast Path, or if you're more of a pedally person the Tarka Trail is nearby too; bikes are available to rent locally if you don't bring your own.
