Rural site two miles from Croyde beach and the South West Coast Path
A 15-minute drive from Woolacombe beach and Saunton Sands
Communal firepit and flower farm on site; pubs and shop nearby

A day in the surf or strolling along the South West Coast Path, before gathering around the communal firepit – sounds good? Crowborough Farm is a peaceful site within 15 minutes’ drive of the lively Devon beaches, Woolacombe beach and Saunton Sands. On an organic farm, the grass wildflower meadows have views of the sea and Lundy Island, as well as excellent sunsets. It’s a proper back-to-basics set-up, all about being in the countryside. The farm has mobile compost loos made bespoke by local tradesmen using local materials. There is also a shower block with hot water. The communal firepit has wooden benches; you’ll need to bring your own firewood or arrange some with the owners. On site, there is also a sustainable (and colourful) flower farm where you’re welcome to wander around. The farm is a short five-minute drive from Croyde, where you can then walk to the beach or the South West Coast Path towards Baggy Point (popular with climbers). This area of Devon is a World Surfing Reserve, so there are plenty of surf schools a short drive away from the farm too. The local village, Georgeham, is under five minutes’ walk from the farm. It has a village shop with produce such as fresh bread, local eggs, vegetables and dairy, and a post office. There are two pubs in the village (serving excellent food) that often host live bands in the evenings.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The location is absolutely brilliant. 5 - 10 minute drive from amazing beaches depending on traffic and less than 5 minutes to the village (shop and pub). Nice field with a really wild feeling. Shower was lovely.

Disliked: Sink being by the toilet was a bit smelly and we didn't know if it was drinking water.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: This campsite felt like going back in time when camping was wild and free. We loved it. Lovely views, friendly people...the local village has two lovely pubs (walkable). We will be back, we had a great time.
