Set in one of Exmoor's most beautiful coastal locations, Caffyns Farm

Set in one of Exmoor's most beautiful coastal locations, Caffyns Farm offers peace, seclusion, space, and stunning panoramic views over the surrounding hills and valleys, the Valley of the Rocks, Lee Bay and across the sea to Wales. And yet we are easily accessible, less than ten minutes from Lynton and Lynmouth and close to all the North Devon and Exmoor towns, villages, tourist attractions, beaches and countryside. Camping here gives you the perfect base to do whatever you want...walking (South West Coast Path and Tarka Trails nearby), touring, riding (from our own stables), cycling (we have our own bike hire), or just relaxing in our acres of tranquil countryside. Within the 160 acres of Caffyns (over half of it flat), we have five main fields offering 50 pitches. Two of the fields are ideal for family camping as they are close to all facilities, well sheltered with mature hedgerows, and completely enclosed, giving children ample space to play, but allowing parents to keep an eye on them! We can accommodate large groups with absolutely no impact on other campers. We allow campfires in all our fields and polite dogs are also welcome. We are also very flexible about camping arrangements and will happily take visitors on a day-to-day basis. THERE IS NO NEED TO BOOK! While we already have good facilities - showers, toilets, fridge/freezers, washing up facilities and a good range of everyday camping supplies - we will also be adding extra facilities over the summer. Please visit our website for current prices.
