The herdwick hut in the paddock awaiting guests

The evening sun shining on the herdwick hut

Rural site three miles from Barnstaple
Easily accessible from main roads and by public transport
Near Exmoor National Park and surfing beaches of the north Devon coast

There's easy peasy access to and from Crossways Country Park in north Devon: it's simply reached from main roads and – although peacefully rural – is close to piles of Devon attractions and activities, as well as Barnstaple three miles away. Buses from the stop outside the park entrance run to South Molton and Barnstaple. A dog exercise area is at the park and footpaths and country lanes are close by for walks off site. Exmoor National Park is about 12 miles away for longer walks and other activities such as cycling, horse riding, climbing and fishing; it's also a short drive from here to the beaches and famed surfing spots of the north Devon coast. Facilities include a launderette, a washing-up area and washrooms with toilets and showers. The site's a 10-minute walk from the food and drink of the Jack Russell pub, known for its connection with the Rev John Russell, breeder of the first Jack Russell terrier.

Liked Well maintained and peaceful site. All facilities were kept extremely clean. Good location base for visiting the local area. Short drive to local pubs and shops. Site manager was very friendly, and ensured we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Would definitely stay again, and recommend to friends and family.

We will definitely return to this site!

Liked Lovely quiet, level site. Dated toilet and shower block, but very clean! Nice dog walk area and the wardens were really friendly and helpful. Perfectly situated to explore North Devon and to come back and relax.

Disliked Nothing.

Liked Always a warm welcome from Deon and Lesley. Extremely friendly and do the little extra things that matter.. like sorting a taxi contact for us to head down to the pub 😊

The site remains spotless and spacious with great facilities in a beautiful setting. Inclusive of rolling hills and a gorgeous walk(dog walk) in the pastures behind.

Lovely hosts. Site was level and on hard standing due to…

Liked Lovely hosts. Site was level and on hard standing due to the fields being inaccessible from the heavy rains recently.
The enclosed dog exercise area was a benefit especially with all the wildlife around. Lovely views. Basic but clean shower/toilet block.

Disliked The mostly wet weather. 🤣

Excellent site!

You can hire bikes in town to explore the Tarka Trail cycle route, running from Barnstaple to Exeter on one of the country's longest traffic-free bike and walking paths, or stick around into the evening to catch a show at the Queen’s Theatre. Strange structures including a giant stiletto shoe can be seen six miles away at the Broomhill Art Gallery and Sculpture Garden, and vintage conveyances at the Arlington Court and the National Trust Carriage Museum within 10 miles. If it's animals you're after, Exmoor Zoo is 12 miles away. Access heaps of walking and cycle trails as well as other activities including horse riding, fishing, canoeing, climbing and sea kayaking at Exmoor National Park, also 12 miles away, or travel 15 miles to the fab beaches, excellent surfing and surf schools of Croyde, Saunton and Woolacombe.
