  • Grass pitches at a north Devon campsite facing the Atlantic coast
  • Five minutes’ drive to Hartland Abbey, and 15 minutes to Clovelly
  • Information point and direct access to South West Coast Path
The folk who own Stoke Barton Farm Campsite know a thing or two about the area – they’ve farmed around this part of north Devon for generations and specifically at Stoke Barton for over 40 years. It’s also fair to say they know a thing or two about splendid family-friendly breaks – that’s what you get when you set down on these grass pitches facing the Atlantic coast. There are coastal views across the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to kickstart the holiday vibes. The information shed – which is kitted out with kettles, microwaves, a freezer and power points – is a handy source of useful knowledge as well as tending to your tummy, and only down the lane by the farmhouse. For all your food and drink needs you can go to the pubs at Hartland – five minutes’ drive or a half-hour walk. A local shop is also nearby and deliveries can be arranged. Since Stoke Barton Farm Campsite is on a working livestock and arable farm, you’ll see sheep grazing in fields neighbouring the pitches. There are 12 acres across the site in total, including plenty of space between pitches so you’ll never feel crowded. It’s wonderfully family friendly too, with facilities that include a football pitch where kids can let off steam, charging for devices (that’ll keep the teens quiet) and a launderette to keep everyone looking their best.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked Beautiful site, quiet, lovely walks, immaculate facilities, friendly owners, huge pitches, peaceful!!! Showers were clean. A bit of a walk but we expected that from previous reviews and understand why being near the house. Loved every second despite the on/off weather and windy nights.

From the manager: Thank you for your review Ron. As a rented property we do the very best we can and I suggest that in future you stay on a holiday park and not a rural farm campsite.

Well maintained site with clean facilities in a lovely location.

Mary L. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked The entire site is very well maintained and a credit to the owners.
Ample space to pitch with a very helpful map provided at reception to show the different fields and amenities available.
Lovely modern toilet block and washing up facilities. Always found them clean and well stocked - they are checked on a regular basis throughout the day & evening.
Great information room and indoor rest area. A lot of thought has gone into the needs of long distance walkers.
Access to the Coast Path is quick & easy with permissive routes direct to camp site.

Disliked Nothing ... not even the distance to shower block, which has come under criticism on previous reviews. With the benefit of more space on a large site you have to expect a longer walk to amenities.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Oh wow Mary ! Thank you so much for such a lovely review. We are now adding a small shop which I have to say is tempting as we have proceeded to fill it with all sorts of goodies. Hope to see you again one day. Many thanks.

Friendly, nice facilities, great local walks

Local attractions

How to begin your break in north Devon? With a long jaunt across the South West Coast Path, which can be accessed directly from site? More clifftop walks around Hartland Quay (five minutes’ drive), followed by a tasty pub meal? Clovelly (15 minutes) is another splendid seaside scene with cobbled slopes and a row of small fishing boats. To investigate more of the coast, you might want to check out Bude (half an hour) and its many surfing beaches. There’s more surf at Welcombe Mouth (20 minutes), along with a waterfall to seek out. Speke’s Mill Mouth Waterfall (five minutes) is another waterfall closer by, and with a nearly 50-metre drop, it’s bound to be pretty impressive. What of some particularly peaceful places, then? St Nectan Church (five minutes’ walk), named the Cathedral of North Devon, is one. Hartland Abbey (five minutes’ drive) or The Gnome Reserve and Wildflower Garden (20 minutes) are others. To get to wildlife-packed Lundy Island, visit Bideford Quay (half an hour). If it’s kid-friendly attractions and farm animals you’re after, The BIG Sheep (25 minutes) has all of that.
