Robert F.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked Facilities for kids is great and the things you have to pay for are very reasonably priced. The wave is well worth it and we didn't have a problem getting time slots we wanted. Evening entertainment wasn't terrible, obviously aimed at kids, but the bar is decent and the pizzas are ok. (didn't try anything else.)

Staff are all polite and friendly

Disliked The hard pitches are very hard! Unless you have the tools to get awning pegs in and out you'll find it tricky. Also felt like being in a carpark rather than a campsite.

Lots of dogs! I love dogs in fact we have one, but there are lots of dogs roaming about freely (regardless of what the rules say) and it gave the feel of being on a traveller's site rather than a holiday park.

Shower blocks weren't cleaned regularly and on more than 1 occasion got caught out with no loo roll.

WiFi. Paid for the site wifi which was intermittent at best. WiFi at the club house is good and free, but at the pitch was rubbish. Was told that they aren't happy with the set up they have and it's not living up to their expectations.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your detailed and balanced review! We're really pleased to hear the kids' facilities, entertainment, and pricing made your stay enjoyable—and that our team left a positive impression. It’s great to know you had a good experience with The Wave and found the bar and pizzas decent too.

We also truly appreciate your honest feedback about the hard pitches, roaming dogs, shower block cleanliness, and Wi-Fi issues. These are important points, and we’ll be sharing them with the team to help improve the experience for all guests. Your insights help us grow, and we’re grateful you took the time to share them.

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Roast dinner in the pub on site was lovely. Nice things for the children

Disliked No visible security parolling on site, no barrier and not manned on entry, anyone could enter the site. My grandsons bike got stolen whilst we were there.
Only two professional acts in the 7 days, the rest were the entertainment team, bit disappointing. Indoor Pool was not warm. Hard to get water for the motorhomes where we were pitched.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We're really glad you enjoyed the roast dinner and the children's activities, but we're very sorry to hear about the concerns you raised—especially the theft of your grandson’s bike. That’s deeply upsetting, and we take safety and security very seriously. We also appreciate your comments about entertainment, pool temperature, and motorhome facilities. Please do get in touch with us at customercare@verdantleisure.co.uk so we can look into this further and offer support.

Best wishes,

Electric gravel touring pitch

Liked Me and my daughters had so much fun, this was our return visit. The staff were amazing as usual. I booked lots of the activities, my girls had the best time. Plus it's a short drive to the beach.

Disliked Don't enjoy waking up early to book swimming. It's a shame you can't book on a system on arrival.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks so much for your lovely feedback! We're thrilled to hear you and your daughters had such a fun return visit and that our team and activities made it memorable. We appreciate your suggestion about swimming bookings—it’s helpful and will be shared with the team.

Liked We were on pitch 89 so was out the way.

Disliked The roads going past a long row of pitches was very dusty when cars were driving up & down. Needs tarmac & not chippings.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We're glad pitch 89 offered a peaceful spot for your stay, and that the onsite facilities were appreciated. We're sorry to hear about the dust from the road and the challenges with booking activities for your grandchildren—both are important points that we’ll be sure to pass along to the team.

Your comments help us improve the experience for all our guests, and we truly value your input.

Liked Excellent site for those with children. Lots for them to do. Outdoor pool area was excellent.- hour booking slots meant there was room Entertainment staff were very hardworking and all staff were friendly and helpful. Variety of activities meant there was something for everyone

Disliked Toilet block ( unisex) on touring pitch site was a bit dated and needs some maintenance ( toilet door locks not working) .

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked I stayed here with my 2 girls, I decided to go on a road trip from Essex, to Bristol, Devon and all the way to Cornwall. We loved it here so much we had to return on our travels back home. Amazing staff, the facilities were great, there was so much to do for my girls. Steve was fantastic, as a single mum I find towing the caravan and pitching a little daunting. Steve was fantastic on arrival he explained where my pitch was, including where all the facilities were. When leaving again Chris was so lovely I mentioned about coming back as the girls loved it so much, his line of work was above and beyond what a great asset you have their. When it come to booking the activities Aiden and Ben were fantastic.

Disliked The only thing I didn't like was getting up early to book swimming. If there was a booking system like the other activities it would be much better.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience—it’s heart-warming to hear how much you and your girls enjoyed your stay. We're thrilled that the team, especially Steve, Chris, Aiden, and Ben, made such a positive impact and helped make your road trip extra memorable. It’s great to know the facilities and activities hit the mark for your family.
We really appreciate your feedback about the swimming booking process. That’s a helpful suggestion, and we’ll pass it along to the team as we look at ways to make things even smoother for our guests.
Looking forward to welcoming you back again soon!
Best wishes,

Local attractions

Venture out and you’ll find loads to see and do in this part of North Devon. Clamber down the steep cobbledy streets to the fishing boats at the fourteenth-century quay in Clovelly (50 minutes' drive), or pay a visit to Barnstaple Pannier Market (25 minutes) to browse the local foodstuffs, arts and crafts, and antiques. Watermouth Castle (15 minutes) has dungeon labyrinths and a gnome land (anyone who thinks this sounds like the stuff of nightmares will be pacified by the dreamy views…). Nature lovers might enjoy an outing to the wilderness of Exmoor National Park to spot wild deer and ponies, choosing spots like the ruggedly gorgeous Valley of the Rocks (35 minutes) for wild goats and fossil hunting. For other days out, the kids can come face-to-leg with scarily lifelike dinosaurs and go swimming with sea lions at Combe Martin Wildlife & Dinosaur Park (15 minutes), or just get spaced out by the rides at The Milky Way Adventure Park (45 minutes).
