  • Grass pitches at a north Devon campsite facing the Atlantic coast
  • Five minutes’ drive to Hartland Abbey, and 15 minutes to Clovelly
  • Information point and direct access to South West Coast Path
The folk who own Stoke Barton Farm Campsite know a thing or two about the area – they’ve farmed around this part of north Devon for generations and specifically at Stoke Barton for over 40 years. It’s also fair to say they know a thing or two about splendid family-friendly breaks – that’s what you get when you set down on these grass pitches facing the Atlantic coast. There are coastal views across the North Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to kickstart the holiday vibes. The information shed – which is kitted out with kettles, microwaves, a freezer and power points – is a handy source of useful knowledge as well as tending to your tummy, and only down the lane by the farmhouse. For all your food and drink needs you can go to the pubs at Hartland – five minutes’ drive or a half-hour walk. A local shop is also nearby and deliveries can be arranged. Since Stoke Barton Farm Campsite is on a working livestock and arable farm, you’ll see sheep grazing in fields neighbouring the pitches. There are 12 acres across the site in total, including plenty of space between pitches so you’ll never feel crowded. It’s wonderfully family friendly too, with facilities that include a football pitch where kids can let off steam, charging for devices (that’ll keep the teens quiet) and a launderette to keep everyone looking their best.

Aleks L. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Lovely location, clean, well looked after facilities, luscious grass pitches. Friendly hosts, very good price.

Disliked: Nothing! But the only thing that would make it even better would be a small play area for the children so they can keep busy whilst you can relax!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hello Aleks, thank you for your lovely review, much appreciated. Regarding a play area, we always used to have one but sadly the powers that be decided it wasn't suitable and we had to get rid of it. They wanted us to buy hugely expensive professional playground equipment such as what a school would buy. Unfortunately I believe a lot of small sites like ours have had to do the same. But never say never, we may be able to look into it.

Wonderfully clean facilities, a friendly host with great local intel

Local attractions

How to begin your break in north Devon? With a long jaunt across the South West Coast Path, which can be accessed directly from site? More clifftop walks around Hartland Quay (five minutes’ drive), followed by a tasty pub meal? Clovelly (15 minutes) is another splendid seaside scene with cobbled slopes and a row of small fishing boats. To investigate more of the coast, you might want to check out Bude (half an hour) and its many surfing beaches. There’s more surf at Welcombe Mouth (20 minutes), along with a waterfall to seek out. Speke’s Mill Mouth Waterfall (five minutes) is another waterfall closer by, and with a nearly 50-metre drop, it’s bound to be pretty impressive. What of some particularly peaceful places, then? St Nectan Church (five minutes’ walk), named the Cathedral of North Devon, is one. Hartland Abbey (five minutes’ drive) or The Gnome Reserve and Wildflower Garden (20 minutes) are others. To get to wildlife-packed Lundy Island, visit Bideford Quay (half an hour). If it’s kid-friendly attractions and farm animals you’re after, The BIG Sheep (25 minutes) has all of that.
