Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: The views were amazing! On site facilities were clean; toilets, showers, external hot and cold taps and a converted carriage which housed a table, arm chair, fridge and plug sockets. Very handy! Good value for money too. The site is off the beaten track so there's no disturbance from traffic, though the roads were a little bumpy for a mini Cooper!
Disliked: The site, as expected, is exposed. The price you pay for the amazing views is the exposure to the elements. It happened to be a particularly wet and windy weekend for us but this is no fault of the site. If we could choose the weather, we would go back in a heartbeat!

Liked: Amazing view from the camp site and from a range of walking routes nearby. Good facilities for basic needs in common areas - toilets, showers, fridge, plug sockets. Nice pizzas on Saturday night. Helpful, friendly hosts.
Disliked: Tracks to/from the main road are a little tight in places. Water from taps in the toilet block come out very forcefully! And, given the location, just be aware that obviously it can get quite windy and cold.

Liked: This site was right up my street. Pay for a pitch go where you like. Shower and toilet on site. £20. Beautiful views, sunsets, sunrise. Sounds of sheep, horses and wildlife. The staff were brilliant. On some nights you can order a homemade fired oven cooked pizza... which was probably the best pizza I've had in years... I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here while paddle boarding at Coomb Martin beach.

Unpowered grass campervan site
Liked: You’d find it hard to get a better location. The view of the hills and sea is beautiful as is the sunset. A downhill walk into Coombe Martin is easy, with the option of a taxi back (£7)
Disliked: The toilet and shower are unisex and only two of each. Was ok for our stay but may get busy in peak season. Washing up facility is outside so if wet May not be pleasant. My only other niggle is that dogs are requested to be kept on a lead at all times, which is fine apart from the owners dogs who run free. Twice they went to toilet on our tent! 🤣

Liked: We received a warm welcome upon arrival and were able to pitch where we wanted. The views were lovely and access to the SWCP was fantastic, we did the Great Hangman's walk into Combe Martin. The site is somewhat exposed to the elements and you have to pitch around the top edge of the field if you want to sleep level. Showers were super hot and the facilities were clean. We were able to order pizza for Saturday evening which was delivered straight to our pitch and it was absolutely delicious. There were also options for breakfast baps and local sausages etc.
