Adults-only north Devon caravan site for CAMC members only
On the edge of Exmoor National Park, three miles from Combe Martin
Dogs welcome, with dog exercise area on site

Hiding away at Higher Twitchen Certified Location is an excellent choice for those hoping to explore Exmoor National Park and the gorgeous North Devon coastline. This small adults-only site is a peaceful place indeed – and it's one reserved for members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club (CAMC) only. This is a fine location for a break that mixes up countryside and coastal days – it’s just outside the western edge of Exmoor National Park and about three miles from Combe Martin and its beaches. Ilfracombe, Croyde and Woolacombe are all within 20 minutes’ drive too, for more seaside action. All of this means it's easy to fill your days with walking, cycling, surfing, horse riding, sea kayaking, fishing and all manner of other outdoor activities. Boat trips to Lundy, animal spotting at Exmoor Zoo and trips to National Trust locations can also be on the cards, as can laidback outings to local pubs and cafés. It doesn't all have to be action packed, though – the chilled-out rural atmosphere of this site means it’s also a great place for simply kicking back with a barbecue and a couple of beers. Essential facilities like a water tap, grey waste point and Elsan point are all provided, and there’s a dog walk area where any four-pawed travellers can have a good run around.

Local attractions

There are lots of ways to get out and explore Exmoor National Park, including hikes along the South West Coast Path and inland trails. Some of the popular spots include Haddon Mouth (20 minutes' drive), Valley of Rocks (25 minutes) and Tarr Steps (40 minutes). Cycle trails and horse riding outings are also good options, or you may prefer to take it easy with a ride on the Lynton & Barnstaple Steam Railway (15 minutes). Combe Martin (five minutes) is a watersports hub where you can hire kayaks and paddleboards to explore the fairly sheltered bay around the village. For surfing, meanwhile, you’ll want to head a little way west to Croyde, Woolacombe or Saunton Sands (all within 20 minutes). Other favourites along this stretch of coast include the historic village of Clovelly (45 minutes), and the seaside town of Ilfracombe (10 minutes), for the Tunnels Beaches and boat trips to Lundy. Inland, Arlington Court and the National Trust Carriage Museum (15 minutes) makes a nice day out.
