Stowford Farm Meadows

Kedvelték Large pitch size, location

Nem kedvelték Shower/toilet facilities need drastic updating

Lack of swimming availability

Lack of tokens for tumble - reception and park warden exceptionally unhelpful regarding this

Not enough glasses in the bar areas, lager supply low & flat

No snacks - crisp etc available in bar areas could only purchase from shop

General social areas - entertainment for kids, bars etc need deep clean as very dirty

Paid for wifi - still didn’t work and no refund offered - weather was blamed for poor service

Wouldn’t recommend or visit again without major refurbishment

Kedvelték Clean and well maintained toilets and shower blocks. The site is clean and well maintained. There are plenty of facilities on site and you can park next to your pitch,

Nem kedvelték The free wifi is incredibly poor and it drops you off very frequently (every 5 mins or less) and that is if you can get online at all - and then invites you to pay £8.75 for 24 hrs of admittedly far better wifi. In the times in which we live, charging every pitch over £8 a day to access the internet feels wrong to me. £2 would feel better - still £60 a month per pitch isn't it. There is patchy mobile signal. We resorted to moving the car halfway between the wifi transmitter and the tent and then leaving a mobile with a power bank attached so we could wifi off it as the signal was ropey to say the least. The onsite shop is overpriced and stuffed with low quality goods, Tesco is just up the road so this helps. The out of hours line is not answered out of hours.

Kedvelték Grounds were well kept. On arriving we asked for our family to be pitched together which was sorted for us.

Nem kedvelték The bar areas were understaffed and tables not cleaned. There was a lack of glasses for drinks (usually pint glasses). The ladies toilets/shower blocks were not checked regularly and soap dispensers as were empty over the whole weekend. We needed to use the tumble driers (due to bad weather) only to find that there were no tokens available (or had been collected from the machines by the following morning) seemed like the attitude of some staff at their busiest week and at a time of bad weather was ‘it’s not our problem’

Bits of the park was broken.
Didnt feel overly safe for kids.
Needs more staff.

Kedvelték We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Stowford Farm Meadows and found it was good value for money. Check in was very efficient and staff that we met were friendly and helpful. Toilet and shower facilities were plentiful and we found them always to be clean with hot water. Also had sinks for dish washing.
Facilities onsite were good - children's play areas, swimming pool, mini golf and bar/restaurant entertainment area.
Site was well maintained and nicely spaced out.
Great location for visiting Woolacombe and Ilfracombe (15-20 minute drive to each).

Nem kedvelték Many of the arcade machines/change machines were jammed or not working.
Shop onsite had limited stock (although this was said to be as a delivery had not come in)
Bar service was not very efficient early evenings with long wait times when it wasn't that busy.
Chalkboard in the stable bar was still advertising the animal show from the week before which was not on during our stay.

Kedvelték Well kept maintained site. Huge campsite with plenty of activities to keep you occupied.

Showers/toilets and washing facilities all clean

Wi-Fi at extra cost

Kedvelték Site was clean, easy to peg the tent into the ground. Shop staff were helpful and friendly. Lounge bar was nice

Nem kedvelték Reception manager was rude, showers needed more water pressure and bigger cubicles. Clothes and shoes got wet while showering. Drinks and food on site were expensive. Shop shut to early and opened late. Chip shop was shut most of the time. All tent pitches were on a slant.no cider on tap at any of the drinking venues. Restaurant not big enough to cater for the amount of people on site. People had to wait 1.5 hours for meals. No phone signal or WiFi on site. Waste bins not emptied enough or signposted

Kedvelték Location is good.

Nem kedvelték Unfortunately found this campsite very noisy at night with no warden to be seen at night time. We as a family who camp lots are very used to the general noise rules to be quiet after 10pm but there didn’t seem to be this rule in place or anyone monitoring noise levels at the camp site. We have young children who thankfully are pretty good at sleeping but as adults trying to enjoy the evening, to have to listen to kids (and adults) play fighting and playing football way past 11pm was not our ideal for a nice relaxing evening. To add to this we were pretty close to some season pitch holders in their caravan who were smoking marijuana pretty much 24/7. The smell was incredibly strong and with young children around and myself being 25 weeks pregnant it was very unpleasant.
If there had been someone patrolling the site this would have definitely been smelt by them. We didn’t feel comfortable complaining at the times as we’re worried about the backlash this may have caused from these season campers.
Facilities weren’t very clean.
Entertainment was honestly awful. Same every night with the games played by the hosts and the younger guy was so unprofessional. He seemed to like playing up to and joking with the older children while often just ignoring the younger ones. The games played in the early evening often felt unsafe for the smaller children or unattainable for them. One evening he played a game where they had to create a park with their bodies. This group of children who were no older than 7 had no guidance from him and instead of helping he just stared at them and said “well I don’t know what’s going on here, I’ll give you more time” So then myself and another parent jumped in to help the kids so they didn’t feel humiliated. I wish I could remember the guys name because he seriously needed more training!
