Surf kit hire and wave condition reports on site

Of all the activities one could fill one’s time with on hols, it’s likely that sitting in traffic jams won’t figure terribly high up on the list. Park up at Cherry Tree Farm Campsite and you can chuck the car keys away for a bit, for this Croyde site is in prime position for driving-free Devon days. Getting out and about on foot is a cinch from here: having glimpsed the sea from the site, wander to the beach in around 10 minutes for surfing or swims (all watched over by trained lifeguards), or hit the coast path for walks to Baggy Point and beyond. It’s a 10-minute stroll to the village’s pubs, cafés and shops too, and plenty of activity providers that can set up days of coasteering, bike hire and other seaside goings on. Cracking coastal views lend themselves well to peaceful stays, and that’s a vibe that the site owners are keen to maintain with their respectful requests to keep the hubbub down to a gentle hum, with no noise at all after midnight. Partly that’s to keep the peace for other guests, and partly to avoid disturbing the wildlife – hares, badgers and pheasants are among those that call this area home (and whom you might just spot if you settle quietly for a while). Backing up that easy-life atmosphere are a bunch of handy facilities on site: smart shower/toilet blocks, recycling facilities, ice pack hire and exchanges, and phone charging facilities (yours for a small donation to the charity box).

Local attractions

Surf’s up pretty much any time along this stretch of coast – Croyde’s famed for it. Experienced wave riders can do their thing at the beach 10 minutes’ walk away, or check out the conditions at Putsborough beach (five minutes’ drive north) or Saunton Sands (10 minutes’ drive south). Kit hire can be had on site, and there are several instructors in the village if you need a hand to get on your feet. Skip the surf and there’s still plenty to keep you busy: activity centres in Croyde are ready to sort coasteering, sea kayaking, beachy horse rides and climbing, and there’s a golf course 10 minutes’ drive away. Stretching your legs on a stroll to Baggy Point (half an hour on foot) is a fine idea too. If you can locate the car keys, you may like to plan an arty afternoon at Broomhill Sculpture Gardens (half an hour), sea safaris, diving and fishing from Ilfracombe (20 minutes) or kid-pleasing trips to the Big Sheep theme park or Combe Martin Wildlife & Dinosaur Park (both 35 minutes or so).
