What customers say

This is a very clean and well-maintained campsite with excellent facilities, including modern shower blocks and useful extras like hairdryers and freezers. It boasts a fantastic location, offering easy walking access to Croyde village and the beach. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful. While most guests praise the quiet and peaceful atmosphere, a few mention noise from traffic or nearby village venues. Some minor points of improvement include occasional queues for facilities and wishes for warmer showers.

From the manager: Hi,
Did you not find the large new showers through the washup area and turn right?
They are individual, lockable, and completely private, open to anyone on site.

Rachel S.

Electric optional grass campervan or trailer tent pitch (maximum 6 metres)

Liked Location excellent.
Lovely flat pitches.
Nice simple touches like washing up liquid provided and bin bags etc.

Disliked No music policy. Whilst I respect this and the reasons, I feel some low level music in daytime hours (as long as it’s within your camp space volume) wouldn’t be an issue.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks Rachel. I appreciate your feedback. I tried low level music to start with but people will be people and it all went south really quickly. So no music at any time was the only way and in general it's the best thing, considering tents don't contain sound. See you soon. Stu.

Hayley T.

Electric optional grass campervan, trailer tent or tent pitch

Liked Everything, we had a nice big pitch. Plenty of room for us and the car. The showers, toilet block and wash areas were always kept clean. There was hairdryers and straighteners in the women's shower rooms which was a good bonus.
It was a short distance to local shops and pubs and a short distance to the beach.

Disliked Nothing

Electric optional grass campervan or trailer tent pitch (maximum 6 metres)

Liked Stu was fantastic, we arrived early and he allowed us to pitch up early.
He was so accommodating and as this was our first ever camping trip he was so helpful.
Facilities were always clean and close to our pitch, which was great. Its a quick ten minute walk to the beach. The village is only a 5 min walk away for any entertainment. We will definitely be booking again.

Hannah B.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked This is a lovely friendly, family run campsite. The pitches were of a good size and nicely organised by staggering them on a hill. They were level and we had a great view of the countryside from our pitch. The facilities were great; they were always clean and tidy and there were nice touches like hair dryers and straighteners so that you can pack a bit lighter. I also liked that the well maintained wash up area which had washing up bowls and washing up liquid dispensers. This was great as we forgot ours!

Location was perfect with a 10 minute walk to the beach and a few minutes into Croyde. While staying we enjoyed horse riding at Woolacombe riding stables; a surfing lesson with Surf South West and a nice meal at The Thatch in the village. We had a beautiful walk along the coastal path which is great for walking and running.

The campsite was really quiet most of the time.

Disliked Nothing to dislike about this site. The pitchup site didn't make it clear that electric hook up was added or how to add this when booking. This meant that I had an extra fee to pay when I arrived that I wasn't expecting. This is an issue with the pitch up website rather than the campsite.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi and thanks so much for the 10 out of 10 review.
I will raise the issue again with Pitchup.
We do have new lockable showers with a bench, hooks, and room to change in complete privacy. They are accessed through the washup area, near the entrance to the ladies. I am sorry you didn't know that they were there, they are new and popular. Stu.

Local attractions

So… the beach? Thought so. Croyde’s one of those fab places that’s equally good for a paddle, a swim or a surf. Experienced boarding types can usually find some good waves down here, and there are shallower sections where newbies can find their feet (with the help of one of the village’s surf schools, ideally). For a rest from the waves, take a walk out to Baggy Point (about 45 minutes on foot), join a game at the village’s beach volleyball school or drive for 10 minutes to the rural pursuits at Borough Farm Sheepdog and Falconry Displays. Alternatively, make it all about the sea with a coasteering day from Croyde, a ride on the beach at Woolacombe or a sea safari from Ilfracombe (both 15 minutes’ drive). The beaches at Putsborough and Saunton Sands are both about five minutes’ drive away and there are some cracking walks to be had on the South West Coast Path around here too.
