Tarka Trail Camping

A aimé Location to Tarka Trail.
Toilet and shower block good.

N'a pas aimé Nothing nearby apart from Tarka Trail/coastal path.
Microbrewery is a basic, cold shed/building with a very rude and obnoxious owner. Should not be used as a selling point for the site.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you, we appreciate you taking the time to write a review and always take comments on board.
It was nice to speak with you on your stay and glad you liked the location and facilities on the campsite.

The adjacent Micro Brewery ( separate to Tarka Trail Camping ) is indeed Querky and eclectic which adds to its charm.

Lawrence the Micro Brewery Owner is also a Basil Fawlty type character who is like Marmite ( love him or hate him ! ).

There are also lots of Bars, Pubs and restaurants within a mile of the campsite including Instow with Stunning views, delicious food and glorious Sunsets.

A aimé Location is fabulous with a gate on site leading directly on to the tarka Trail.
Excellent toilet/
shower facilities kept immaculately clean.
Bench tables provided on all pitches
Micro brewery around 100 yards from the reception with a highly entertaining host /barman.

A aimé Such a beautifully kept site! We had a warm welcome on arrival and were allocated a really lovely pitch, right on the edge, overlooking a field with far reaching views of the estuary and beautiful sunsets. The site is on the Tarka trail with easy access from a gate with a key code for re-entry. It was really quiet when we were there, pitches are well spaced and the grounds are so well kept and maintained. You can really see that the owners are keen to make sure you have a pleasant visit. The bathrooms were pristine as was the wash up area and also the waste zone.
We had a lovely walk to Fremington Quay and had lunch at the pub there sitting on the deck in the sunshine. We also walked into Instow one day and then cycled on another occasion using the trail, which is so good for cyclists. A few could do well to use their "bells" to warn you that they are coming, but in the main people were really friendly. You can access the South West Coast Path from the site, a small section towards Fremington is unavailable to people with dogs so do be aware however, if you walk a little way down the trail towards Instow, you can access the SWCP from there with your dog. They do ask that you keep them on lead to protect the wildlife which is perfectly acceptable. We were lucky enough to see a really large buzzard and a kestrel giving chase on our walk. We had a day trip to Saunton Sands, which is the most magnificent, dog-friendly beach. Had a wonderful lunch at The Beachside Grill with fantastic service and a superb meal. Well worth a visit! Also a visit to Northam Burrows. You pay on entry for the day and the parking is easy with a motorhome. Lovely beach and there is also a cafe if needed. North Devon is absolutely stunning and Tarka Trail Camping is very likely to see us again!

A aimé Site was spotless, pitches were good size, free Wi-if and staff were welcoming. The site is in a good position for the Tarka Trail cycling or walking or even catching the bus. The micro bar was also an excellent touch.
We really enjoyed a holiday on the site and would definitely recommend.

A aimé Spacious pitches and good facilities.

N'a pas aimé Although it was quiet when we were there, I would imagine that there would be queues for the 2 showers in the men’s block during peak times.

A aimé Spacious pitches, great location on the coast path close to Instow, fantastic facilities, superb access to the Tarka Trail. We have just enjoyed a wonderful two-night stay at Tarka Trail Camping and would definitely return.
