What customers say
Well-kept, clean, spacious site with helpful staff. Level, roomy pitches for kids to roam. Facilities good, with hot showers and loos, though some noted minor issues. Great spot for beaches and towns. Good value, many say they'd come back.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews














Great, need to be better prepared for lack of places to visit on foot
Electric grass pitch
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.

Electric grass pitch
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.

Electric grass pitch
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.

Non-electric grass pitch
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.
