  • 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…

What customers say

Generally good reviews for this big, neat campsite. Spacious pitches, clean, friendly staff. Families love the pool, playgrounds, and dog walks. Facilities usually clean, though some find them a bit old or have water temp/pressure issues. Can be noisy when busy.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Out door grounds are nicely kept, friendly staff, big pitches. The woodland walk was lovely. The riding centre is a great bonus and all the staff there were great.
Lots to do on site and nearby.
It has the potential to be a fantastic site that we would visit year after year, unfortunately there just needs to be some extra care taken with cleaning the pool and certain indoor areas. Great site, just a bit unloved in places.

Disliked The pool was so dirty, murky with lots of debris on the bottom. There was a strong smell of urine around the pool area.
Showers and toilet blocks could have done with a deep clean.
We couldn't find any straightforward information about what children's activities were on offer, how much they were and when they were on.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely large pitches, not overcrowded and well kept grounds

Disliked Cleanliness of facilities wasnt up to standard at all, pretty sure they were only cleaned once a day and it wasnt sufficient for the amount of people using them. Swimming pool changing rooms absolutely stunk and was dirty nappies on the floor in the changing room

Recommend to friends Visit again

Great campsite for camping and touring. We will return again.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Option to check in on any day and not a minimum of so many nights stay.
We had a lovely pitch with open grass area near by for children to play. Hops walking distance to facilities and entertainment.
Our children loved the childrens entertainment they had great fun.

Disliked Shower areas weren't always the cleanest. But this would be down to other campers who didn't squigey the floors after their use. Maybe more could be provided in these areas rather than just one.

A wonderful friendly site - we’ll be back!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The activity center was good when it rained and Maria who was running it was fabulous with all the kids.
The archery was really good too.

The space for the kids to run around and have freedom was great.

Disliked I have never been to a campsite where things get stolen so fast.

One of our group left a jumper on a chair, returned 10 minutes later to discover it was gone. This was the same with a pair of shorts and a bottle of fairy liquid ( throughout the week)

When we asked the staff about it we were just told " not here mate" and then one member of staff said " it might be in the maintenance room but it can take weeks to be reported. Didn't even offer to have a look for us.

I also watched the cleaners enter the laundry/ washing up room, have a look and sign the sheet on the wall to say it had been cleaned when there was in fact mud all over the floor and sides.

One of our party had to leave one evening but was returning the next day to discover someone had put a caravan on his pitch and was told he would have to move pitches. He was then moved to a pitch that also had a caravan on it still but told to just use the space beside it as the staff couldnt remove the caravan until the next day.

Dogs were also pooing all over the grass pitches and where kids were playing.

Would recommend for all.

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.
