$Overlooking ilfracombe$

Lots of room to set up camp with multiple tents and cars.

Farm park in Devon with sea views on three sides: pitch where you like
A mile from Ilfracombe, four from Woolacombe and 10 from Exmoor
Showers and toilet block

Take your tent to Mullacott Farm for pitching up with sea views, in the coastal preservation area of north Devon, a mile from Ilfracombe, four miles from Woolacombe and 10 from Exmoor… Guests have sea views on three sides from the camping fields at this family-run farm, overlooking Woolacombe and Lundy Island to the west, Lee Bay and Ilfracombe to the north, and on a clear day the south coast of Wales; you'll be able to spy countryside landscape from your tent too. Mullacott is a gently sloping and basic site, with simple but clean facilities including showers and toilets 100 metres from the camping field. Pitches are unmarked, so settle down wherever you fancy and get prepped to take in those three-sided Devon sea views.

Local attractions

It shouldn't surprise those who know a bit about north Devon that the setting of Mullacott Farm is handy to days (weeks) of things to do for all ages, abilities, tastes and budgets. One of Devon's most popular beaches, Ilfracombe, is only a mile away and has a Victorian town attached with a working harbour where fish can be bought from the quayside (and yes, Mullacott Farm allows barbecues). Several walks start from around here, including Capstone Hill, Hillsborough and the Torrs. Woolacombe, four miles away, is a surfing hotspot and popular family beach; it's surrounded by National Trust land and has miles of coastal walks and cracking scenery. The biggest nearby town is Barnstaple, 13 miles from base and with the nearest train station to the farm as well as the famed Pannier Market; the team also recommends a wander around the market town and weekly livestock market of South Molton. Exmoor is about 10 miles to the east and the villages of Lynton and Lynmouth just beyond, with the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway and walks along the flood site of 1952, the Valley of the Rocks, and the South West Coast Path and Tarka Trail.
