FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Good overall layout, everything you would want as a camping stop over.

Disliked: Pitches close to each other as motor home put with caravans and they park there cars at front of pitch restricting you from leaving and returning so easy if your motor home is 8 meters long.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Clean showers and toilets with ample hot water. Friendly receptionist.

Disliked: Sadly we had very little sleep - all night long there was very loud construction work going on within a few hundred meters. No reference was made about this upon booking. I would not recommend this campsite if you wish to actually physically sleep at night. Came away feeling drained and exhausted.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Friendly, helpful, staff; shop and bar have a pleasant atmosphere. Lovely, spacious, clean shower /toilet facilities. The park was fairly quiet when we visited and we enjoyed a peaceful riverside walk.

Disliked: Pitches are spacious but feel closer together as there are few dividing hedges.

Liked: The site was clean and staff were helpful. The shop was also well stocked. We loved the stream running through and the fact we could pitch up right by the park for the children to enjoy. We can’t wait to come back!

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Nothing

Disliked: The pitch was very small and we had to move to fit the caravan on, dog mess on the pitch when we arrived. Toilets and showers were filthy and we could not use them, in the three days and two nights we stayed out of six they were not cleaned at all . We had teenagers with torches shinning through the window at us. We left after two nights having paid for six.

Local attractions

If you'd prefer something more active than fishing, it's a 15-minute drive to Exmoor National Park for miles of scenic walks, mountain bike trails and lots more outdoorsy antics. Canoeing at Wimbleball Lake and beginners' climbing at Valley of Rocks are among the popular picks, as are pony treks and horse riding days through countryside and along the coast. Speaking of the coast, there's much to enjoy here too: head west for the surf beaches around Croyde and Appledore, or north to Ilfracombe for more beach, the aquarium and boat trips to the island of Lundy. It'll take you 40 minutes or so to hit either stretch of coast. Kid-friendly days out nearby include heritage rides on the Lynton & Barnstaple Railway (half an hour's drive), animal encounters at Exmoor Zoo (20 minutes) and Combe Martin Wildlife & Dinosaur Park (half an hour) and easy pedals along the traffic-free Tarka Trail from Barnstaple (15 minutes).
