  • Award-winning park in a wooded valley and wildlife haven
  • Within 15 minutes' drive of Ilfracombe, Woolacombe and Croyde Bay
  • Play parks overlooking gardens and lake
If life’s little stresses are getting you down, flee and hide away in this award-winning park in a Devon wooded valley. From your doorstep at Hidden Valley Park all the highlights of north Devon are within easy reach: the famed beaches of Ilfracombe, Woolacombe and Croyde Bay are no more than 15 minutes' drive away, and family days out at The Big Sheep are about half an hour from the site. But this pretty place is so secluded you'll feel like the world outside doesn’t even exist (which is always a win…). There's no need to leave the grounds until you're fully perked up, with plenty of peaceful options including wandering along the stream running through the park, lazing about the lakeside area, or taking a woodland walk to spot kingfishers and otters. Take a tramp through the forest then come back to relax around the gardens and lake – there’s wifi access too so you can load up your phone/tablet and studiously avoid catching up on work. Which is also a win… Kids and dogs can hide away too, as there are two play parks for the youngsters and the park is dog-friendly. Amenities include luxury shower and toilet blocks with hairdryers and underfloor heating, full disabled facilities, a reception with tourist information, a licensed shop and a launderette. Once it’s time to venture off site, a bus stop is just outside the entrance to the park.

What customers say

Beautifully kept, tranquil woodland site with a stream. Guests love the spotless, modern ablutions, big pitches, and super helpful staff. Great for exploring the North Devon coast. Occasional road noise noted but not bothersome for most. On-site eatery gets good reviews. Highly recommended for a chilled getaway.

Electric optional grass touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch (large)

Liked Me and my partner have come to this site 2 years in a row now. We love how we requested a specific pitch and the staff accommodated this. The showers are cleaned regularly, there is washing machines and tumble driers for a small fee and bins stationed throughout the site. The whole place is just beautiful; not an ounce of litter, the grass is kept and the trees are maintained which is lovely as the site is surrounded by them! The staff are wonderful and really helpful. We cannot forget to mention Kit Kat, whom is a long term resident at the site - she is purrrrrfect.

Disliked The restaurant could serve food slightly later than 7pm. Although, this is a personal preference as people who eat later.

Electric optional gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked A peaceful site with great amenities and space. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Perfect for couples, families and those with pets who don't mind getting back in the car to get to any of the wonderful local beaches.

Disliked We could hear the road traffic from our pitch, although this was only slight and we were in the closest row of pitches to the road.

Lucy S. 1 review

Electric optional gravel touring pitch (small)

Liked We stayed here for 3 nights. A large campsite with a good range of pitch options. Good location (no narrow roads to get there) We had plenty of space - both grassy and hard standing, water supply and metered electric hook up. The reception team were very helpful. Toilets and showers were immaculate and the site was well organised for waste disposal. A nice cafe/bistro on site which sadly was not serving hot food during our visit as we picked the nights the chef was off! Plenty of space and marked trails to walk the dog!

Local attractions

Hidden Valley is four miles from two of Devon’s best-known beaches, Woolacombe and Ilfracombe, five miles from the surfing mecca of Croyde Bay and six from a family day out at the beach of Saunton Sands. The areas around all these are well worth a look, but the Victorian harbour town of Ilfracombe is a must for bucketloads of boat trips such as punts out to nearby Lundy Island, the seafront with the Landmark Theatre, and St Nicholas Chapel on Lantern Hill, where a light has shone over the harbour for over a thousand years. Bring a torch for a walk to the Ilfracombe Museum and Tunnels beach, reached by tunnels through the cliff. Many family attractions close by for all weathers, including Exmoor Zoo (25 minutes' drive) and The Big Sheep (30 minutes), while sprogs will probably also like spotting ponies in the Exmoor wilderness, getting creeped out in the dungeon labyrinths of Watermouth Castle (20 minutes) or taking to the skies in the rides at the Milky Way Adventure Park, 45 minutes away at Bideford.
