Secret Spot Camping

A aimé We stayed at Secret Spot Camping for 2 nights on a tent pitch and absolutely loved it. On arrival, we met the owner who was so welcoming and friendly. They gave us a tour of the site and plenty of great recommendations for the local area.

The site itself is fantastic, with a choice of three spacious fields. We picked a quiet spot and enjoyed total peace and relaxation. The facilities were excellent, with clean toilets and shower blocks that we never had to queue for. There is also a kitchen and lounge area with plugs for charging, fridges and microwaves, although we did not use these. The gardens are gorgeous, with lots of different areas to sit and relax, and even a fire pit that guests can use.

The location could not be better, tucked just behind the dunes, less than 5 minutes from Braunton centre with brilliant surf shops, cafés and the surf museum, and only 10 minutes from Saunton Sands. It is also just a short drive to Croyde and Woolacombe.

We had such a wonderful stay and cannot wait to rebook. Highly recommend!

A aimé Stayed with friends and was pleased to have a choice of field (we chose the first one). Nice wide space and not limited by pitch boundaries, so could pitch up wherever. Water tap close by, really clean toilets and showers and great communal area for boiling kettles/charging phones etc. these touches really made the difference.
Also, campsite nice and close to lovely beaches and local town. Will definitely be back!

We have created the 'Campers Shelter' with all lt's free facilities.. (Phone Charging/WiFi/Microwaves/Kettles/Toaster/Fridges/Freezer) as EHU is not currently available in the camping fields. Everything has been done so that campers really only need a light and maybe a coolbox.

Latest cost appraisal (this year) for EHU to pitches is in the region £30,000. This involves installing cabling across 2 fields (that do not belong to us) - in a 6ft deep trench that we must dig ourselves - on neighbouring land, followed by the on-site installation.

Never say never as we like a challenge but we may have to win the lottery first!

A aimé The facilities were perfect, very thoughtful with a comfortable inside area, kettles, hot water bottles ect. The owners were friendly and even come with two dogs! Which are obviously a highlight.
The campsite was very peaceful and perfect for families or anyone looking for somewhere to relax and enjoy the outdoors.
I couldn’t recommend this campsite high enough and definitely would come back.

A aimé Almost didn’t want to write a review as we don’t want anyone else to know about this little gem…!!
A superb campsite…really lovely hosts, very friendly and caring.
Excellent facilities…super clean and well-equipped with cleaning supplies.
Lovely open spaces, and quiet hideaways…in an idyllic setting…walking distance to Braunton and a little drive to Saunton and Croyde.
Will definitely stay again.

A aimé This was one of my fave campsites ever and I have stayed in hundreds. Came as a lone female and felt really safe and relaxed the whole time. The owners were so nice and helpful throughout. The toilet and showers were the cleanest I’ve ever had and the showers were great. The indoor area with a microwave, fridge etc was ideal. Would always stay here when in North Devon from now on! It’s a perfect location to beaches, shops, pubs etc. 10/10

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank You for your Review..

The terrible wind and rain we had when you were here has now passed.

Location.. perhaps look at a map when selecting a campsite to make sure it is suitable for your needs?
Accommodation.. You brought your own! - Are you rating your own tent??
WiFi.. Works great in the Campers Kitchen/Lounge, does not reach far from there.
Customer Service.. Its our own home so we live on site and are available 24/7 if you need us.
Facilities/Activities.. All listed on Pitch-up - where you booked.

Hoping your next camping trip- wherever it may be ls more successful for you!

A aimé Epic campsite very quiet. Owner allowed me to set up where I wanted. Was shown around the campsite showing the fields, showers, toilets, campfire area also the lounge area hub, which included freezers fridge and microwaves. Lots of charging points there as well. The hosts were super friendly and very knowledgeable for the area. Braunton and five min drive, has good number of shops including a good butchers. About a five min drive or 15min walk there is a farm called the spud shack which does an epic Organic milkshake, Also other good produce.
Nearest beach Saunton sands is about a ten min drive and reasonably priced. Saunton dunes ( sandy lane carpark is less than 7 mins drive £2.50/park ) are good place for a walk but be prepared to climb a lot and great for dog walking. Be aware with Woolacombe as parking is really expensive unless your staying for the whole day (£14) if your a NT member then free parking is available just outside Woolacombe.
There is an excellent cycle hire in Braunston which good for the Tarka Trail and reasonably priced as well.
The whole stay was one of the best I have had in N Devon and I will be returning.
Just be aware there is no EHU but plenty of charging points in the hub. This def a secret spot. There is no wifi but I had no problem with mobile data and got 5G with 3 in the top field.

Please note that there is WiFi in the Campers Kitchen/Shelter.
The password is on the wall in the Kitchen section and again in the Lounge section!
Plenty of free sockets for phone/small device charging right there too.
Glad you enjoyed our site and the area.

FYl.. National Trust recently purchased Marine Drive at Woolacombe so if you are a NT member you can now get free parking at Croyde and Woolacombe.
