The gentle rustle of ancient Devon hedgerows and the distant call of woodland birds greet you at this peaceful rural retreat, where morning mist often lingers across the rolling fields before giving way to soft West Country light.

This straightforward campsite welcomes tents, campervans and caravans year-round, making it a practical base for families and couples exploring Devon's diverse landscape. Whether you're venturing to the dramatic north coast, the gentler southern shores, or the wild expanses of Dartmoor, you'll find this a convenient spot to return to after days spent discovering the county's varied terrain.

Facilities are kept simple with toilets and showers provided, while the campfire policy requires checking on arrival—always worth asking if you fancy an evening under the stars with flames crackling nearby. The year-round opening means you can experience Devon in every season, from bluebell spring through golden summer to crisp autumn and quiet winter months. The overall atmosphere is unpretentious and low-key, appealing to those who appreciate countryside camping without unnecessary frills.

Woolacombe Community Trail

Loops through Woolacombe village and surrounding coastal paths with gentle to moderate inclines and some steeper sections near cliff edges. Suitable for older children who are confident walkers, but uneven terrain and proximity to cliff paths make it unsuitable for buggies and require supervision. Dogs welcome on leads, particularly near livestock and clifftops. Rewards you with stunning Atlantic views, rockpools, and a proper taste of North Devon's dramatic coastline without committing to longe

South West Coast Path (Section 4: Combe Martin to Woolacombe)

National Trails logoNational Trails

Tackles dramatic clifftop terrain with steep, relentless ascents and descents—this is one of the toughest sections of the South West Coast Path. Not suitable for buggies or young children due to challenging gradients and exposed sections. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near livestock and cliff edges. Rewards with stunning coastal views across the Bristol Channel, wild headlands, and the descent into beautiful Woolacombe Bay makes every climb worthwhile.

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

National Trails logoNational Trails

Follows dramatic clifftops from Woolacombe's sandy beach eastward to the Taw-Torridge estuary at Braunton, with steep ascents and descents throughout. Stunning coastal views but challenging terrain makes this unsuitable for buggies and tough for young children. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth it for sweeping Atlantic panoramas, secluded coves, and the contrast between rugged headlands and Braunton's tranquil wetlands.

Tarka Trail - Croyde to Saunton Circular Route

Loops through classic North Devon coastal scenery with a mix of sandy paths, quiet lanes and beach stretches. Mostly flat with one gentle climb out of Croyde village. Ideal for families – the beaches at either end are brilliant for kids – though buggies will struggle on sand sections. Dogs welcome year-round on the inland path, but check seasonal beach restrictions (usually Easter-September). Worth it for sweeping views across Saunton Sands and rockpooling opportunities at Croyde Bay.
