Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked It was very peaceful and lovely views, I liked the basic facilities. It was lovely for it to be so quiet. But still near the beach in a car.
Disliked no hand soap in toilets! Otherwise, nothing.

Simple, pleasant, well run and good location
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The weather was fabulous which made our short trip so enjoyable. The site and location attracted the relaxed clientele.
Plenty of space no rules on the size of the pitch. Little walk to the toilets/showers/freezer and USB charging. The showers were good but the constant pressing the change in temp was annoying but fine. Toilets ultra clean. Unchlorinated fresh water from the borehole very nice. Friendly chap operating the site in his van - did the loop twice a day.
Recycling bins including used batteries gets a huge tick from me. Sounds of the cockerel, sheep and cows reminds you your in the countryside another bonus.
Walk down to Coombe Martin either along the the steep road or pathway. Walk back was pretty tough but more enjoyable than parking near the beach. Coastal path walking/running great. Trip to ilfracombe/Lynton/Croyde all easy drive. Lovely coastline and the verges looked cleared of rubbish. Smashing part of the country.
Coombe martin is a lovely little village, silver mining history. Great farmshop which we supported. Nice deli for cake. Finding Supermarkets were a little more of a challenge highly recommend doing research and bulk buy before arriving as not an option to pop out and get real food. Fresh meat can be sourced from the village in standard hours.
Yes, I would return but not the kind of site you want to frequent in wet weather very much fair weathered site at excellent value.
Disliked Camping adjacent to road can be noisy at night. Temp control on the showers could be temperamental.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked What a beautiful site with stunning views, short distance into Combe Martin. Plenty of room to pitch. Both fields have toilets & showers also washing up area's as well. Owner has made areas where you can charge your phones etc and even put a freezer in the shed too so you can refreeze your ice blocks.
Relaxed set up, owner pops by and check ins.
Disliked Nothing to really dislike. Sadly we has noisy neighbours late at night, who were not worried, During quiet hours on site.

From the manager: Thank you for your review and wonderful photos. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay, sorry about the noisy neighbours.
Hope to see you again.
