Bay View Farm

Gostou This campsite was spot on! The views were spectacular! We watched the sunset every night. The facilities were cleaned regularly and there were two blocks for both ends of the park. The staff were very helpful, we had a little issue with our electric and it was sorted very quickly. Great shop on site for essentials, fish and chips on site too. The site looks big on the pictures but it's not which we prefer. Park was great for the kids, my son loved it. The location was great, a small village about a 10 minutes walk away and croyde beach about a 20 minute walk away. Woolacombe bay was literally a 15 minute drive away and furthest point we went to was about 45 minutes to Lynton and lynmouth. We can't wait to return next year!

Gostou Great views, clean facilities, friendly staff and a great location. Will definitely be back!

Não gostou Showers needed somewhere to put dry clothes and items, only one door hook. Had to hang everything else over the doors.

Gostou Not much

Não gostou Not being told that no bbq allowed before we left home we had planned a weeks worth of food so had to throw it away and spend rest of the time finding food and spending lots of money on restaurants which ruined the holiday . Asked one of the staff members where the beach was they responded have you got a map very rude . The pitches where not level as described so didn’t get much sleep. And showers although hot made everything wet as didn’t spray into tray just all over the floor.

Gostou Such a lovely vibe at this campsite, a very family feel. I like that the owners often drove around on a little tractor thing to check everything was all okay. Great shop with warm baguettes in the morning and very friendly staff. Shop was open really long hours too, 8:30am to gone 9pm, not sure on actual closing time. Reception was also open late which was great for us as we arrived quite late but it was nice someone was there to great us. Every morning we were there there was a crepe van which we ate at twice as it was so good! We didn’t try the fish and chips and pizza but they looked busy so sure they were great too and helpful having food available on site.

LOVE that it’s a dog free site and the local beach is also no dogs! Makes a change as usually campsites (in my opinion) can be ruined by dogs everywhere.

Walk to Croyde beach is very easy, literally cross the road and there’s a little footpath that is signposted down Sandy Lane, around 10-15 minute walk but very flat so easy to do. Croyde beach is stunning and has so many different food options around so you barely need a car whilst here. We nipped into Braunton for some food shopping but other than that everything can be within walking distance if you’re able.

It’s a big site with multiple fields but the shower and toilet block had plenty of them so never had to wait. There’s also an additional toilet block at the top end.

Great security onto site as only vehicles with a sticker you get given can get through the barrier which is fab! No code to remember as it opens automatically for you so quick and easy access.

The sunset in the evenings were amazing, we were in field D which I think was the best location as we could also see the sea, so we had a great view of the sun setting over the sea every night. Seemed like a really good dark sky area so the night sky was absolutely beautiful.

Não gostou Pitches are more close together than you get at other sites (that we’ve been to) so is quite cosy and you can hear everyone’s conversations around you so wasn’t overly peaceful in the evening. Not sure if there was a specific “quiet time” but as most places, a lot of campers didn’t stick to this unfortunately.

Pitches are very sloppy, was fine for us as we had blocks but if you don’t you’d really struggle so recommend levelling blocks or similar else you’ll be leaning to one side massively.

Totally understand why there was a ban on charcoal bbqs due to the recent weather but we weren’t made aware of it until we arrived. They said they posted it on their facebook but I did not look at that so an email would have been helpful. So a bit of lack of pre-arrival communication there.

Gostou We had a wonderful stay and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The owners were incredibly helpful, friendly, and always happy to assist with anything we needed, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The facilities were excellent, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. The location is perfect, just a 10-minute walk from the beach. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would happily return next year. Highly recommended!
