  • Stunningly scenic glampsite with ocean views towards Lundy Island
  • South West Coast Path five minutes’ walk; Clovelly 15 minutes drive
  • Pre-pitched bell tents with kitchenettes; watersports kit hire on site
Seeking beachside days and scenic strolls along cliffs? Fancy days swimming, sailing or surfing? Get yourselves to Livit Adventures Glamping, surrounded by greenery in the grounds of Westacott Farm, five minutes’ drive from the Abbotsham village in Devon. A top destination for coastal breaks, this family-friendly glampsite also has spectacular Atlantic views to Lundy Island, and is only five minutes’ walk from the South West Coast Path. Pretty much all the basics are provided in spacious, pre-pitched bell tents, which come in two options – basic and deluxe. The luxury glamping tents are named after landmarks you can see from the site (Clovelly, Lundy, Baggy…) and sleep up to four; they come set up with king-size proper beds, bedding, towels, table and chairs, and each has private decking where you can put your feet up while admiring the sea views. Individual kitchenettes, firepits and barbecues are provided too. Also sleeping up to four, the basic pre-pitched bell tents are supplied with camp beds, camp chairs and a central light so you can see what you’re doing after dark. If you go for this option, you’ll need to bring bed linen, towels and cooking equipment from home. Be sure to bring plenty of bedding as North Devon can get chilly overnight – in fact, the units all have flooring and rugs to add a little comfort and warmth underfoot. There’s a shared cooking shelter for creating camping meals (using your own equipment) if the weather is being particularly British. Otherwise you can hire firepits if you fancy a bit of alfresco barbecuing – and there are pizza nights on Saturdays too. Toilets, hot showers and washing facilities are found at the entrance to the top field, so everything you need is within easy reach.

Bell tent (basic, three person)

Liked: This was an amazing place to stay, clean, friendly, dog friendly & Sarah & team were very accommodating & helpful. Loved the grub hut,, with an awesome breakfast & pizza’s on Saturday evening. It’s also just down the road from the aqua park, which was epic, Milky Way, for younger ones & big sheep adventures, great location for beautiful beaches too. Overall definitely a place to stay. 🥰

Disliked: I actually had no dislikes about Livit adventures, yet I believe 2-4 shower/toilet cubicles in top field would be nice, for middle of the night or busy season,,, not a complaint yet a suggestion ♥️

Local attractions

Once you’re settled, you’re all ready to get out surfing and kitesurfing in Westward Ho! (10 minutes’ drive), or wakeboarding at the North Devon Wake Park (15 minutes). There’s no need to haul a heap of kit along with you, as the glampsite also owns an activity company where you can hire surfboards, wetsuits and paddleboards. Abbotsham village, home to The Big Sheep theme park, is five minutes’ drive; Bideford’s steamship, museums and galleries are a touch further at 10 minutes’ drive. The Milky Way Adventure Park, another day out to enthral the smaller humans in your life, is 10 minutes away too. Join the Tarka Trail for long-distance biking and walking on a 32-mile path running from Braunton to Barnstaple, then turn sights to Exmoor National Park (40 minutes) for meanders across misty moorland, keeping eyes out for the famed wild ponies as you go. If gentler activities appeal, scenic strolls can be had in the traffic-free village of Clovelly (15 minutes), around the gorgeous flower displays at RHS Garden Rosemoor (25 minutes) or through Arlington Court and the National Trust Carriage Museum (40 minutes).
