What customers say
Highly recommended campsite with stunning sea views, friendly staff, and great, clean facilities. Guests loved the spacious pitches, on-site food, and family vibe. Road/wedding noise and busy facilities were minor points. Many plan to return! Perfect for coastal walks.

Anonymous Valley powered grass campsite
Liked A very well kept campsite in a lovely area near the sea with a shop, bar and food available every evening. The pitches are spacious and there is a very relaxed vibe on site. Loved the miniature goats.
Disliked The facilities were very clean but the campsite was quite busy and there were sometimes queues for them..

Valley powered grass campsite
Liked Just had a brief but oh so enjoyable stay at Watermouth Valley, or happy valley as I prefer to call it! Friendly helpful staff, great facilities, and a great evening on Saturday night with Steve Valentine.. my garmin watch thinks that I was swimming, when in fact I was dancing the night away. Cannot recommend it enough..
Disliked No dislike, but never did see if there is a grey waste disposal on site?

Anonymous Valley primitive grass campsite
Liked Great little site. Lovely to have a small shop and pop up food and bar. Also so close to Watermouth Cove and the Sawmills Pub. Views at the top great. Friendly staff. Site is very pretty and good sized pitches. The moles clearly liked it too 😃
NB bring cash for bar and food as it is preferred.
Disliked Many of the valley pitches are not flat, in the shade after a certain time and quite close to the road. There's not much to be done about any of these. There did seem to be less toilets and showers for the whole site than was ideal and people brushing teeth in the washing up sink was a bit unusual!
