Around the site

  • Peaceful and secluded farm site with views of Dartmoor
  • Over 30 acres of farmland with woodland walks from the site
  • Wildlife haven: spot red and roe deer, badgers and buzzards
Searching for a Devon getaway close to the beach and to Dartmoor and where the whole family is welcome? Look no longer… make tracks for Hollocombe Hideaway, a family- and dog-friendly site half an hour’s drive from the coast at Widemouth Bay and with views of Dartmoor from the grounds. The site covers over 30 acres of woodland, including woodland walks where the owners regularly spot red deer, roe deer and the resident sett of badgers. The tall trees next to the site stream are home to buzzards that frequently soar overhead. Off site, the farm’s setting down a quiet country lane five minutes from Hollacombe and Holsworthy is in rural countryside with walks along fields starting directly from the grounds. It’s 15 miles from the farm to the sands of Widemouth Bay, for sunbathing, swimming and lunches or afternoon tea at the nearby cafés as well as picnics at the secluded bays along the coast from here. Just along the bay from Widemouth is a beach where dogs are allowed all year round. The site’s also within easy reach (25 minutes’ drive) of the seaside resort of Bude, with its wide sandy beaches gently sloping to the sea. Bude beaches are lifeguarded in high season and are a popular destination for family surfing as surf schools offer lessons and kit hire. Inland, Dartmoor is half an hour’s drive away and Tavistock with its weekly markets, art galleries, museum and independent shops is within 45 minutes.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Lovely view, lots of space, and a very friendly owner.

Disliked Not much shade, we were concerned to see fires burning in braziers on the site during a very hot dry summer. Two days later the government banned such!

Powered grass site

Liked Loved the simple, laidback and relaxing atmosphere - surrounded by animals and panoramic views - the perfect setting to chill and a perfect setting for the kids to play safe and nearby.
Amazing host who was always available when we needed her, with a friendly face!
Toilet and shower facilities were basic but all we needed - always clean and had additional homely touches.

Disliked It bit further away from Bude than we expected but away from the hustle and bustle of a town - nothing was too far away with a small drive - Will definitely be back!

Liked Super owners, lovely views and a great location! We had a slight mishap when leaving the campsite and Natasha and Ady were brilliant and so kind. The campsite had such a lovely community that so many other campers checked on us and offered us help. A brilliant place to stay- definitely recommend. Once you come once, you will be back!

Liked Wonderful place, spotless site, thoughtfully designed and layed out space, easy to find and great communication from the site owner. Natasha couldn’t have done more for all her guests - readily available for anything you need, friendly, hugely personable and made the experience even better.

Local attractions

If your holidays are incomplete without a beach day or two, you'll be well chuffed with this location. The site is 25 minutes’ drive from the nearest beach (Summerleaze, in Bude), and other sandy stretches at Crooklets and Sandymouth Bay are within half an hour; all three are good picks for surfing, sea fishing, swims and sandy strolls. When a break from sea, surf and (perhaps) sun is needed, stick around Bude to wander along the canal towpaths, call in at the castle – where there’s a history museum and art gallery – or have a taste tour (self guided) of the town’s many eateries. Days in urban environs aren’t limited to Bude either… There are plenty of scenic villages worth exploring up and down the coast, none more so than the privately owned, blessedly car free and most pretty cobblestoned village of Clovelly, 40 minutes from base. Nature-filled hours are a cinch hereabouts too: the site is 35 minutes from the edge of Dartmoor National Park and – for a bit more order – RHS Garden Rosemoor is within half an hour. A little stuffy for younger tastes? It’s 20 minutes’ drive to the Gnome Reserve and Wildlife Garden in West Putford.
