- Small, family-friendly campsite on the Devon and Cornwall border
- A 30-minute drive to The Big Sheep, and 40 to Dartmoor National Park
- Farm shop with a food service; beaches, fishing and kids’ parks nearby
A small, family-run campsite in a quiet rural location, Tree Tops is surrounded by gorgeous countryside and has far-reaching views to Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor. Situated on the Devon and Cornwall border, this is a smashing base for anyone wishing to explore the whole of the West Country.
Pitches are fully serviced and provide a 16-amp electric hook up, fresh drinking water, a grey-water point for piped waste, and a water tap. Each pitch is at least eight metres in width and there’s hedging between each one so your stay here will be totally private.
The local town of Bude (20 minutes’ drive) has lots of indie shops and surf rentals. Here you can treat the family to fish and chips or a traditional Cornish pasty on the beach, or eat in one of the many cafés, pubs and restaurants.
Upper Tamar Lake (30 minutes’ walk) is well stocked with carp and bream for anglers, and there’s a watersports centre as well as a scenic walk around the reservoir. Lower Tamar Lake is a nature reserve and home to many wildfowl, with many peaceful ways around its shores.
Back at base, there’s a shop for essentials and picnic sandwiches ingredients – you can also order continental breakfasts (handy for your day of departure) and cream tea treats for an extra charge – and remember that as this is Devon, you’ll need to oput the cream on your scone ahead of the jam.

From the manager...
Thank you for your review. Sorry you didn't spot when you booked through PitchUp that we currently have no on site facilities. Our guests are always free to use and we do encourage the use of our adjoining field and the island for turning around to enable easy use of the site when manouvering vehicles. The phone signal (although some networks appear to work fine) and wifi are both something we are currently working on resolving. |

Excellent site with friendly staff and amazing local products

Very good sized private pitches.
From the manager...
Thank you for your review. It's good to hear you liked our pitch sizes but sorry to hear you didn't spot when you booked via pitchup that we currently have no amenities. We are a relatively new site and have not yet been open for 12 months, we do now however have permission to build new facilities for the use of future customers. |

Local attractions
Jump to it, surfing bods – there are numerous surfing and bodyboarding beaches including Sandymouth Bay (15 minutes) and Widemouth Bay (20 minutes). If surfing ain’t for you, why not try kayaking or rent a pedalo at Bude beach (20 minutes), have a go on a Segway (15 minutes) or book a pony trek through forest at the local riding centre (20 minutes).
There are some seriously cutesy coastal towns and villages on the North Devon coast. For indie shops and steep cobbled streets, head for Clovelly (25 minutes), while Boscastle (35 minutes) has pretty harbour views, and at Tintagel (45 minutes) there are fab sea views from its mysterious castle – and you’ll find plenty of foodie options in all these places too.
As a treat for well-behaved kids, there are family rollercoasters at The Milky Way Adventure Park (25 minutes), sheep racing (yes, that’s right) at The Big Sheep (30 minutes), and a day’s worth of water slides and inflatable courses at North Devon Wake Park (also 25 minutes).
