  • Countryside park on 500 acres, 15 minutes' drive from Woolacombe
  • Woodland walks, nature trails, pool and riding centre on site
  • Two on-site bars and a takeaway; play park and miniature golf
Life’s little stresses getting you down? Want to stow yourself away for a countryside break where everything is close to your pitch? Come along to Combe Martin’s Stowford Farm Meadows in north Devon for a bit of de-stressing in a rural setting: the park is a mile from the main road down its own private drive and is a well-placed base from which to explore the best of Devon. Set among 500 acres of Devon woodland and meadows, Stowford Farm Meadows falls into the category of ‘very large’ sites – but fear not if your tastes tend towards the more solitary, as the park is divided into five separate fields and feels like several small sites rolled into one. The overall size means there are heaps of facilities and activities for you to try your hand at, from cantering around on horseback with the help of the on-site riding centre, to driving the kids crazy with your swish moves at the crazy golf. Looking for something a bit quieter? There are marked woodland walks into the wildlife-rich Bittadon valley, with nature trails starting and finishing on site. A heated indoor pool is available for a small extra charge; some days, there are also activities here like the aqua inflatable run and 'aqua paddlers' sessions for kids (both at an additional charge). For putting feet up or letting hair down, the site has two bars (with evening entertainment in peak season) and an on-site takeaway. For supplies, Stowford Farm Meadows has a licensed, well-stocked shop for your caravan and camping accessories. And finally? Even the dog will de-stress here, with a friendly welcome and a spacious dog-walking area on site…

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Toilets and showers clean, plenty to do, beautiful location.

Disliked Staff, sat with dirty plates in the pub for well over an hour, reception late opening, no lights in the men’s showers in the swimming pool, tried to call reception just rang, tried for over 40mins. Told bar staff she said don’t know what I can do. Women crying in reception because she complained about her meal and the chef gave her a hard time about it. Tried to call and book in for swimming pool engaged for the entire afternoon and following morning told receptionist wasn’t interested. The staff really let this beautiful site down. Waited at the bar to order for ages with 3 staff in the back room. Observed this for many people also.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Did'nt bother staying went to another site instead where a premium pitch is actually a premium pitch not a bed of gravel on a patch of grass on the furthest part of the site

Disliked Did'nt bother staying went to another site instead where a premium pitch is actually a premium pitch not a bed of gravel on a patch of grass on the furthest part of the site. To state that it's a premium pitch is laughable.
Be warned!! check out the professional sites such as Smythem manor or woodovis Tavistock, a million miles from their interpretation of a 'premium' pitch. Even their receptionist googled the other sites and agreed how different their pitches are. Shocking and extremely dissapointing. And as we used Pitchup.com to book, no chance of any sort of refund, to be honest I never thought there would be .. be warned!!

Camping pod

Liked Great camping pods with lots of room compared to other pods we have tried with a double bed, bunk beds, a table & chairs and electricity points. A lovely, quiet area for the pods with its own large, clean toilet and shower block. The site is huge and has all different types of accommodation but it does not feel big and it is very quiet and peaceful. There is a big pool, shop, fish & chips and bar.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked It was a great big pitch
Very isolated
Nobody near us.

Disliked Not much stock in the shop.
No entertainment day or night.
Bar Resterant was very poor.
A lot of the meals were not available.
I had to order 5 times cos they didn’t have the meal I ordered off the menu .
Said it wasn’t peak season, but it is July.
Anyway it’s gone down hill, so we won’t be back.

Local attractions

The highlights of north Devon are a pebble throw away, with Combe Martin on the doorstep and the famed harbour and seafront of Ilfracombe a few miles away (if you forget your wetsuit, the clever sorts at Stowford sell them in the on-site shop). Take little monsters to the animatronic dinosaurs, train ride and 250 species of wildlife at Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park where they can help feed the lions or see the birds of prey, or along to Exmoor Zoo for yet more species to see. Not thrilling enough? Let them see stars at the Milky Way Adventure Park with the tallest rollercoaster in Devon, or whirl about the rides and play areas of The Big Sheep.
