Beautifully kept, welcoming site with amazing ocean vistas & roomy spots. Praised for top-notch amenities: clean showers, great shop, tasty food. Perfect for coastal exploration. Dogs welcome with large field. Minor road noise/facility waits noted, but overwhelmingly positive with many wanting to return.

Anonymous Valley primitive grass campsite
Liked Beautiful view overlooking the sea. Large well maintained pitch.
Close to the pub & on site bar
Disliked The toilet near the Ocean view field were too small for the number of people camping in that area, they were dirty and didn’t match with the same standard as the other facilities

Valley powered grass campsite
Liked Well maintained site, with spacious pitches. In our eyes we had the perfect pitch! Great amenities with plenty of showers, toilets, hairdryer, washing up and laundry facilities.
They have a bar and food options every night (apart from Thursdays for food) which looked great - we didn’t have the opportunity to sample but would’ve if we had the chance.
There’s also a pub 2 minute walk away which was lovely.
Would definitely come back!

We had a fantastic, no clock watching time in beautiful surroundings.
Anonymous Valley powered grass campsite
Liked We arrived quite late but having informed reception that we would be late, they were very accommodating and the map of the site provided was very clear and useful.
Our pitch was a good size and we had a lovely view of the sheep and goats, who were not noisy at all!
There is an exercise field for dogs and dogs are welcomed anywhere as long as they are on a lead. Our dogs really enjoyed their stay.
The site is in a really good location for sightseeing, you can easily walk to Ilfracombe or Combe Martin and the South West Coast Path. We used the path a couple of days and it is well signposted. There are many coves nearby to explore, the view from the top of the site over the water and the headlands is spectacular.
All the staff were so friendly and helpful, the entire site is kept immaculate and both the toilets and showers were always clean.
The shop is well stocked, we needed a few bits and it was great to get a hot drink in the morning.
Every night they have a different type of cuisine on offer and the food is excellent, there's also a bar and plenty of seating around that area, it was nice to sit and chill while people watching.
We had a truly wonderful, peaceful break and were sorry to leave. But we will most definitely be back!

Amazing family run camp site, with great facilities.

Liked Always a great stay at Watermouth Valley. The facilities are great and always kept clean. The staff couldn't be more helpful and friendly. I've been going here for a few years and it will remain my favourite place to camp in north Devon.
Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Liked Location was great, had a view of the sea. Very good facilities. Food kiosk and bar were a bonus. Excellent pizzas. Cost average for good campsites these days. Would definitely return but only out of school holidays.
