What customers say
This well-kept, clean, spacious campsite has friendly, helpful staff. Level, well-spaced pitches offer ample room for kids. Facilities like hot showers and toilets are praised, despite minor gripes about hooks or queues. Great location for exploring beaches and towns. Excellent value, with many saying they'd return.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Great, need to be better prepared for lack of places to visit on foot
Powered grass campsite
Liked Not too busy, spacious plots, friendly staff. Ideal shower facilities.
Great for my dog. She had space to roam without too many other dogs around.
Disliked No where to walk to as campsite is off a very busy road.We had a camper with attached canopy, so once set up, couldn't go anywhere.
No shops on site so partner had to walk the dangerous route along the busy road to the next campsite which had a shop. It was a 10 minute walk, but very risky along that road. Would visit again, but only with detachable awning so we could leave the site in the van.

Great budget campsite
Powered grass campsite
Liked Small quiet camp, onsite toilets & shower block plus washing up facilities. Basic but very cheap compared to most other local camps.
Camp is set within a few minutes drive from both Ilfracombe and Coombe martin so perfect location.
Disliked Set shower temperatures, although probably great for most personally found them quite hot especially for the younger ones.

Powered grass campsite
Liked Nice campsite and clean, quiet location. Had all the facilities we needed their including the electric hook up and showers. The pitch was plenty of room for the side tent. 10 min drive to Ilfracombe, would definitely visit again. It was good for the dogs and dog friendly.
Disliked Was no one to great you as your arrived, so was unsure what to do when we got their. I could not connect to the Wi-Fi as the camp site said Wi-Fi was available on site.

Powered grass campsite
Liked The space between each pitch, facilities where adequate.
Location perfect.
Disliked Not the sites fault, how other campers think it's ok to walk past the front of our pitch, I had my neighbours children walking past front of my van, a little to close for my liking.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked Easy to get to, flat pitches, good vibe about the site. Great value for money.
Disliked Long walk to toilets (which could have been a little cleaner). Not clear where the drinking water was at first (right at back by dog walking field). Right next to a main road, which is fine but worth noting.
