What customers say

This small, well-kept campsite offers flat pitches and great access to Braunton's shops and beaches. Guests love the friendly, helpful owner, Alan. Showers and toilets are always clean. While some found the facilities basic, most highly recommend this site and plan to revisit.

Louise B.

Powered grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Quiet and peaceful but close enough to walk to pubs and restaurants.
Excellent beaches close by. We particularly loved Saunton Sands and dogs are welcome all year (a must for us as we have a 10 month old lab).

Disliked Would have liked a couple more toilets and showers during the busy bank holiday but it wasn't a big deal.

From the manager: Thank you very much for your kind comments and so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Look forward to seeing you next year.

Powered grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Good sized level pitches.
Easy walk to local shops and pubs.
Good showers that stayed on rather than the usual ones that you have to keep pressing the button to turn on.

Disliked Could do with some additional toilet/washing up facilities.
Only Two toilets with sinks inside the cubicle caused issues as people would stay in there longer in the mornings brushing teeth, washing etc.

Urinal right by the washing up area was a little odd.

Lovely spot. Close to beaches in all facilities

Liked A lovely little site . Lovely friendly owners. I'm walking distance to all the shops and pubs you need.

Disliked Not really dislikes just just comments ..More showers than toilet s can be a bit competitive in the morning for your visit to the loo . And what's with the urinal right by the washing up? 😂 Also a little bit narrow. Hard to swing your vehicle in without going over someone else's pitch ...

Powered grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Very friendly welcome from Alan. The site was clean & well looked after, with plenty of space on the pitch. The cricket club next door was great & well priced. Just a few minutes walk from pubs, takeaways & shops in Braunton. Direct access to a public footpath into the fields to walk the dog. Saunton Sands just 5 minutes away with easy access to Woolacombe & Ilfracombe.

Clean basic facilities…plenty of toilet roll!
The owners are genuinely nice people and go out of their way to make you welcome.

Local attractions

Away from north Devon’s surfing beaches, Lynmouth (40 minutes’ drive) is packed with cutesy fishing cottages and arty boutiques, and connected by a steep cliffside funicular railway to its smaller twin, Lynton. It’s also well worth checking out harbourside Appledore (35 minutes), known for its ship-building traditions and the North Devon Maritime Museum (a great rainy day option). You’re well placed for day trips around the rocky crags and moorland of Exmoor National Park (30 minutes), or pottering around the narrow streets of pretty, seafront Clovelly (45 minutes). Ilfracombe (15 minutes) is the departure point for boat cruises to spot puffins and seals on Lundy Island, and for big nights out, try out the cosy pubs and indie restaurants in Barnstaple (15 minutes) for size. Travelling with younger kids? Take them to meet farm animals at The Big Sheep (30 minutes), see the model dinos and feed sea lions at Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park (25 minutes), or let them safely run off energy on Saunton Sands (five minutes).
