  • Relaxed family campsite on the western edge of Exmoor National Park
  • Five minutes' drive to Ilfracombe; Woolacombe 10 minutes
  • Kids' play area and small-on site shop for essentials
For memorable breaks by the gorgeous Devon coast, turn to Sunset View Camping, a family-friendly site just to the west of Exmoor National Park. It's incredibly easy to get down to the coast from here, whether you're planning a spot of fish and chips in Ilfracombe (five minutes' drive), beachside wanders in Woolacombe (10 minutes) or surfing at Saunton Sands (20 minutes). Sunset View Camping is a relaxed spot, with views over a rolling Devon landscape of green hills and farmland. It's a modern site in terms of amenities, with well-maintained toilets and showers plus nice extras like a kids' play area where little explorers can burn off some steam. Handily, there's also a small on-site shop for essentials (open from 9 to 5 daily), while just across the road there's The Depot Eatery, a pub-restaurant highly recommended by the Sunset View team. Staying on site and barbecuing your own dinner is another possibility, as cook-outs (with proper safety precautions) are also allowed. Four-legged friends are welcome here, but please keep them on leads at all times and do not take them into the kids' play area or shower block.

Local attractions

The local area is packed with family-friendly activities, including Foot Golf North Devon, a nine-hole course a few hundred yards from the site where fans of football and/or golf can get the whole family involved. There's also a 'real' golf range (with a driving range) within five minutes' drive, as well as two shooting ranges and a quad bike course. And that's not even mentioning all the activities and attractions on offer a couple of miles away at the coast. Starting off in Ilfracombe (five minutes), there's a number of small, inviting beaches and an attractive harbour, while other nearby spots like Woolacombe (10 minutes) and Saunton Sands (20 minutes) have lot of space for sports like surfing or horse riding (head to the riding stables in Woolacombe). If you want to head further off shore, it's also possible to organise nature-spotting sea safaris or sea fishing day trips (both on offer in Ilfracombe; five minutes). Expeditions to windswept Lundy Island out in the Bristol Channel are also possible, with sailings departing from either Ilfracombe (five minutes) or Bideford (40 minutes) depending on the timetable.
