South Devon family campsite five minutes’ walk from Hope Cove beaches
South West Coast Path five minutes’ walk; Salcombe 10 minutes’ drive
Spacious grass pitches with eco-showers; pubs five minutes’ walk

Time for a chilled outdoor adventure with the kids in Devon? The spectacular countryside of the South Devon National Landscape is yours to explore at Cove Camping, a family- and dog-friendly pop-up site 15 minutes’ drive from Kingsbridge and five minutes’ stroll from Hope Cove beaches. This small and relaxed campsite is set on a Devon working farm where sheep are your closest neighbours. You’ll have your own spacious pitch and access to simple eco-friendly facilities on the side of the field, including compost toilets, gas-heated showers, a washing-up station and a rubbish/recycling area. There’s also a mains-water supply that you can use. From the camping field (it has some inclines), you can discover gorgeous South Hams towns like sailing-mad Salcombe (10 minutes’ drive), access the South West Coast Path (five minutes’ walk) or head for Hope Cove (also five minutes) to languish on one of two beaches or have a recce around the village’s pubs and restaurants.

Local attractions

The kids will be spoiled at Cove Camping, for there’s a brace of sand-and-pebble beaches to choose from in Hope Cove, both within five minutes’ walk. Not content with two beaches? There’s a sandy expanse at South Milton (10 minutes’ drive) with a landmark rock arch just offshore, and a surf school and kayak hire at popular Bantham Beach (20 minutes), which attracts food trucks in the summer months to keep hungry families well fed. If you’re keen to get out on the South West Coast Path (five minutes’ walk), turn east for Bolt Tail’s Iron Age hill fort (20 minutes) and carry on for clifftop views over the English Channel from National Trust - Bolberry Down (50 minutes). There’s another National Trust property at Overbeck’s Garden (15 minutes’ drive), where you can amble among palm trees and peer over the spectacular Kingsbridge Estuary to Salcombe (10 minutes). A visit to this pretty waterside town turns up lots of indie shops, seafood bars overlooking the yacht harbour or rum and gin distilleries for tours and tastings.
