Barnstaple 2 bedroom safari tent

Liked: The glamping safari tent at ruda was great. It was clean, affordable, comfortable and well supplied so that we could rock up and just unpack no need to build a tent or set up a van! The view was great and located so close to the beach!

Disliked: The wind shook the tent a lot and some storm straps could have been useful as it was loud at night. Also as the tents are near eachother you can hear others, but it didn't bother me too much though my partner lost some sleep over it.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked: Excellent customer service at reception. Quickly relocated to be next to family and another query dealt with excellently. Good access to all facilities. Gorgeous views and quick access to the beach.

Disliked: Touring block showers were quite tired and often mucky but we did see regular cleaning. Littering appeared to be an issue.

Croyde Burrows powered grass caravan site

Liked: Lovely walk to the beach and into Croyde - can’t beat where the site is situated

Disliked: Shower block needs major updating. They were clean but the showers were awful - had to keep turning back on virtually every 30 seconds! Also the water sprayed the back of the door instead of coming straight down !

Clean and tidy site, especially the shower block. Everything you need…

Barnstaple 2 bedroom safari tent

Liked: Clean and tidy site, especially the shower block. Everything you need on site. Excellent proximity to the beach.

Disliked: Entertainment was a bit weak, but I understand it was midweek and out of season. Some free facilities closed too early for my liking I. E. The Boathouse closing at 22.00 but I understand the reasons why.

Local attractions

Don’t miss the chance to explore the Devonshire coastline surrounding Ruda Holiday Park. Recommendations include a walk to the headland at Baggy Point where you’ll be rewarded with outstanding views; a saunter along spectacular Saunton Sands, and a delve into the dunes at Braunton Burrows. Croyde is a perfectly pretty village of thatched cottages, tearooms, pubs, restaurants, cafés and (but of course) surf shops. There are umpteen visitor attractions in the area, particularly for animal enthusiasts, who can come face to face with life-sized model dinosaurs and a host of their living, breathing descendants at Combe Martin Wildlife Park; practise their trout pouts on some fishy friends at Ilfracombe’s aquarium; or get hands on with the animals at the Big Sheep, the area’s most eccentric day out: sheep racing and stunt ducks, anyone…?
