  • Peaceful site on a smallholding five miles from Bideford
  • Wakeboarding park, surf lessons and amusement parks a short drive away
  • Alpacas, goats and horses to meet on site
Park yourself here for easy access to smashing Devon beaches, the South West Coast Path and the Tarka Trail cycle path, plus watersports lessons and kid-friendly visitor attractions such as The Big Sheep, The Milky Way, Atlantis Adventure Park and Quince Honey Farm. Set within a properly peaceful smallholding, Broad Park Camping and Glamping is a warm and friendly park five miles west of the handsome and historic harbour town of Bideford, where there are independent shops, restaurants serving up local produce, and a pretty riverside quay. While the site lies a handy mile or so off of the A39, it's quiet around this splendid spot. Amenities are well thought out: there's a kitchenette with a microwave, a kettle, a toaster, a fridge and a freezer, in a room with cards, board games and tourist info leaflets. Milk, fizzy drinks, bottled water, chocolate and locally made luxury ice creams can all be bought at the site's small honesty shop. Foodwise, if you want to grill up a gourmet feast, barbecues are allowed; fire baskets are also available for hire, and kindling and logs are available to buy on site for toasty campfires under the north Devon night sky. Friendly dogs are welcome here at Broad Park but must be kept on a lead at all times; for a list of all the dog-friendly beaches nearby, just ask your cordial hosts, who'll be more than happy to oblige.

What customers say

This is a small, peaceful, and immaculately kept campsite with beautiful surroundings and views. Visitors consistently praise the clean facilities, helpful owners, and animals like goats and alpacas, a hit with kids. The amenities room, honesty shop, and fire pit rentals are also popular. Wi-Fi can be spotty and the approach road is narrow, but feedback is overwhelmingly positive, with many eager to return.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked We were really happy with our stay here. It’s a very small, cosy campsite, which we loved because it was quiet and there weren’t many people around. There were only a few children playing, so it had a really peaceful atmosphere.

We also really enjoyed being able to feed the animals. The tents are nicely spaced out from each other, so you don’t feel like you’re camping on top of your neighbours.

The toilets and showers were clean, and the location was very good for exploring the area. We were also impressed with the facilities — there was a fridge and freezer, a washing-up area, and even a microwave, toaster and kettle, which was very handy.

Overall, we had a lovely, peaceful stay and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a small, quiet and cosy campsite.

Disliked Nothing really

PS, not sure what’s going on with the Wi-Fi, we do pay more to have a premium Wi-Fi that should cover the whole Campsite, we will need to look into that, sorry you had a bad experience with it

Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The area was amazing, so much scenery. Easy to find and not far away from day trips, beaches and entertainment for the children! Lovely little on site farm which the children enjoyed feeding the animals. The amenities shop was perfect for a quick snack and a nice place to sit and relax. We enjoyed it so much we asked to stay for another night. The toilets and showering facilities were amazing, cleaned regularly and lovely hot shower. The owners were very accommodating. Clear and precise communications.

Local attractions

Be sure to bring your buckets, spades and beach towels, because you're going to be getting a lot of beach action with a stay here: just outside the Hartland Heritage Coast, the site gives you very easy access to miles of spectacular coastline and award-winning beaches – a short drive will bring you to the sands and sea of Clovelly, Westward Ho!, Appledore, Hartland and Saunton Sands. Also nearby is North Devon Wake Park, where you can get wakeboarding lessons and bounce, slip, slide and clamber on the aqua park’s trampolines, slides, logs, running mats and climbing frames. Surfing lessons can also be had over at Westward Ho! nearby. There’s a wealth of fun places to take little bloomers to within easy reach too: The Big Sheep, The Milky Way, Atlantis Adventure Park and the buzztastic Quince Honey Farm, where you can investigate the lives of bees through interactive exhibits housing more than 20 colonies using bee cams and looking glasses. If you’re into long walks along scenic coastline, Broad Park Camping and Glamping is near the South West Coast Path, or if you're more of a pedally person the Tarka Trail is nearby too; bikes are available to rent locally if you don't bring your own.
