The first thing you hear at Ocean Pitch is the gulls and the wind coming straight off the water — that particular coastal quiet between the calls.

This is a straightforward spot for tent campers and campervan tourers who want to be near the sea without too much fuss. It suits couples after a simple escape, dog walkers (though you'll need to check the current policy when you book), and anyone happy to keep things low-key. The pitch types are classic — grass for tents, hardstanding or level ground for vans — and the location puts you firmly in coastal walking and beach-combing territory.

Facilities cover the basics: showers and toilets onsite, which is all most people really need for a few nights under canvas or in the van. Campfires are worth asking about on arrival — policies can shift with the season or the weather. The vibe here is quiet and unshowy, the kind of place where you fall asleep to the sound of the tide and wake up to salt air. If you're after bells and whistles, look elsewhere; if you're after the coast and simplicity, this delivers.

South West Coast Path (Section 5: Woolacombe to Braunton)

Follows Devon's dramatic coastline with moderate to steep climbs over headlands and dunes between these two popular seaside towns.

Woolacombe Community Trail

Loops through Woolacombe village and surrounding coastal paths, mixing gentle pavements with moderate climbs up to viewpoints overlooking the beach.
