Camping @ Croyde Bay

Ik was blij met Close enough to coast

Ik was niet blij met Small pitches, rather crowded

Van de manager: Dear Jan. I am sorry that we didn't reach your expectations on this occasion. It is our busiest time of the year with family holidays and great weather. Solo female campers usually rate our quiet safe site and nice clean facilities. However, I understand that camping amongst family groups in high season is a different thing. I hope you are able to visit again out of school holidays when there is a different vibe. All the best for now. Stu.

Ik was blij met Location

Ik was niet blij met Very cramped campsite - had to listen whilst trying to get some sleep to a party of Londoners loudly enjoying themselves without thought or consideration to anyone else until 11pm (at the earliest) cars blocking entrances to pitches , surly of the surliest teenager at reception. Wi-Fi unusable due to lack of capacity.

Van de manager: Dear Adam. Thank you for your stay. I wanted you to know that you have been heard and I will take action on the issues you raised. In slight mitigation, it is the busiest week in August (and the WiFi is free) But that is no excuse. I hear you. We can do better. Regards. Stu.

Ik was blij met Quite, no dogs, no music. Great showers and facilities. Great location.

Ik was blij met The toilet/shower block and washing up area is nice and very well equipped and clean.
Only £5 for 12pm check out.
Close to Croyde bay and Baggy point.
Friendly and helpful staff

Ik was niet blij met Right on the main road so could hear traffic and theres a tree with a lot of birds in close by, but that only effected us one morning, and the site can't do anything about that.
Would have been nice to have a space for the kids to play but its not a massive site so they dont have space. Again nothing they can do about that and we spent most of our time at the beach anyway where there is plenty of space.

Van de manager: Thanks Hannah. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. We do have a new area now for kids to play. It's not yet on the map. I can also recommend a pitch further in next time so you are away from the road. See you another time soon. Stu.

Ik was blij met The campsite is lovely. We stayed for 2 nights. It's so quiet at night and just a really nice atmosphere. It is very close (walking distance) to everything all the local bars restaurants and beaches. The facilities have been updated since we last stayed. They are always kept really clean and tidy. They have family shower rooms which are really handy when travelling with children. They also have washing up soap at the sinks, they have hair dryers and straighteners in the shower rooms which is amazing!!! We would definitely come back.

Ik was blij met Very clean campsite.
I liked the quietness of the site, considering the bustling atmosphere of Croyde in August this site felt very relaxed.
Staff were friendly and helpful.
The pitches were very level and considerable effort had obviously been made to terrace the land.
Pitches were a good size.
Location was pretty good. Better for town than the beach, though only a 15 mins walk to the beach.
Shower /loo block was clean and well designed.

Ik was niet blij met It's quite Costly for a pitch. But this is more of a comment on camp sites in Devon and Cornwall in general, rather than specific to this one.

Van de manager: Thanks for the great and honest review. I will take on board what you say about pricing. Whilst I am nowhere near the most expensive in Croyde (Croyde being very popular and my campsite being consistently fully booked) what I have found is that I get the best customers (such as yourself) and perhaps pricing plays a role in deterring the rowdy element. I will keep this constantly under review and endeavour to give value for money, whilst keeping the site family friendly and riffraff free as a guiding principle.
I am grateful for the feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon. Stu.
