  • Family-friendly and family-run site with walks down to Lee Bay
  • Set on 27 peaceful acres a couple of miles from Woolacombe
  • Farm shop and e-bike/bike hire: trails straight from the farm
Traditional Devon farm stays are the name of the game at family-owned and -run Lee Meadow Farm a couple of miles from the sands and surf of Woolacombe, set among 27 acres with woodland views on one side and Devon hills on the other, and with views of the Bristol Channel towards Wales. There is a licensed farm shop here too, selling local free-range eggs and lots of fresh local produce. Just a few of the things on offer are hot breakfasts in a box, lunches, homemade cream teas, chocolate brownies and local ciders and ales, wine and beer. With a walk through the woods, guests can also reach a splendid pub in Lee which serves food. Easy walks and bike rides are simple to access straight from the farm, and the safe cycling of the former Ilfracombe branch line is just at the end of the farm lane. There's plenty of space on site for kids to run about too. Facilities are well kept and include free hot showers, flushing toilets and washing-up sinks; a disabled shower and toilet facilities plus a baby changing area and a token-operated hairdryer. E-bike and cycle hire is available on site. And finally, the two pubs within walking distance selling fine ales, cider and food are faves with the locals – always a good sign for pubs…

Maddy bell tent

Liked We loved how spacious and friendly this campsite is! We also loved the luxury of the glamping tents and the activities available to us.
We will definitely be returning.

Disliked We felt that the glamping tents should be situated closer to the showers/toilets etc. We would also have liked the option of electricity, even just to charge devices. With 2 autistic children, some downtime with devices is important.

Could possibly do with a play area for children.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely site with a great atmosphere. Pitches are really sizeable and there's loads of space for the kids to play. Lots to do on site including bike hire, bike track for the kids, zip wire, hot tub, cold tub and even a little spa if you fancy a massage or treatment! Walks surround the site and it's really well placed for Ilfracombe or Woolacombe etc. Site has a good shop with lots of food options and a cafe that serves food and coffee (the breakfasts smelt amazing!). Facilities are fairly basic but kept clean and tidy. You can hire a firepit for the evenings with wood to burn so the site looks so cozy after dusk. Super friendly team with a lovely welcome, really make you feel at home! There's a cracking sheepdog and falconry show at the next door farm each Wednesday teatime and just next to the entrance of the site (Lee Bridge) you can hop onto an off road cycle/walking track that is lovely and safe for the kids. If you're staying on the top field remember to bring levelling ramps and a good torch. All in all, this is a fabulous all rounder of a site with a perfect balance of action during the day and quiet recharge time at night. Well done!

Disliked Only downside (apart from not being able to stay longer!) is the road leading to it. There's around a quarter of a mile bit of road that is only wide enough for one vehicle with a few blind bends, and it's clear the locals aren't overly happy at having to share the space with caravans/motorhomes. I was moaned at twice in my week there with one 'gentleman' refusing point blank to reverse his car a little to let myself and the family behind through. Not the fault of the camp site at all but be prepared!! Otherwise nothing at all to dislike about the camp site, it was fabulous.

Local attractions

Seven miles of golden sand beaches, surfing, diving, kayaking and shore and boat fishing are all within a few minutes' drive of the farm; on land, mountain biking, hiking, golf, horse riding and quad biking are all available locally. Within a 10-minute drive are Croyde, Putsborough, Saunton Sands and Braunton Burrows, the biggest sand dune system in the UK and part of North Devon's Biosphere Reserve, Britain's first. The dunes are also a Site of Special Scientific Interest, a national nature reserve and a Special Area of Conservation for their 400+ species of plant: take a picnic of Lee Meadow Farm produce and see how many you can spot. The small fishing villages of Clovelly, Lynton and Lynmouth are also nearby, as are the dozens of old villages, scenic coastal walks, moorland and rivers of Exmoor National Park, worth at least a couple of days for its 620 or so miles of footpaths and bridleways, its cycle paths, its climbing, sea fishing, canoeing and kayaking.
