Liked Fantastic site, definitely one of our favourites.
Bridget’s (owner) is just lovely and a special thanks to the lovely Chloe from the ‘field coffee’ van for making mornings just perfect!
Sunsets are incredible, toilets are clean, showers are hot.
Fantastic rota of food vans throughout the week on site.
Play park for kids.
Never over booked even in peak kids summer holidays, site is quiet overnight, perfect place to relax and recharge.
Great base for north Devon and Cornwall, close to westward ho, Bideford, Bude, and great beaches- Saunton sands beach (40mins away) highly recommend-especially for disabled access.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Everything! Cows to the right, sheep to the left, beautiful sea views to the front.. watching the sunset directly over Lundy island. The play area for the children seemed a hit for my 7 year old, especially the football goals.. great visiting food vans/trailers regularly. Mini shop.no fuss booking in and pitching(pre booked).

Anonymous Electric optional grass pitch
Liked Me and my partner came to stay at this campsite from monday to thursday, the views are amazing, especially the sunset in the evenings. The tent size pitches were a really decent size, the toilets and shower blocks were very clean, and the campsite was very tidy!
The little onsite shop was very handy if you ran out of things, we bought some bacon, sausages and burgers, and cooked them on our bbq. They were delicious we must say!
Thankyou for letting us stay with you 😊
Disliked The only dislike me and my partner had was in the kitchen, there were cobwebs, full of spiders, flies and insects in the kitchen especially above the counter tops, a dead moth near the microwave and kettle, they've been there since day one of us being at this campsite, but either than this the campsite overally welcoming and good price for the money!

From the manager: Thank you Karenza for the lovely review of your stay with us.
I was disappointed to hear what you said about the kitchen in the Bay View field and my daughter has just been out there and cleaned it thoroughly. I will show your review to our cleaners so they are aware of what hasn't been done.
Hopefully we'll see you again one day.
