10/10 site, perfect location for North Devon, we will return!
Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite (sea view, sloping)
Liked: The cleanliness of the bathrooms, each shower has a toilet and sink too which is fab and large enough to be considered family bathrooms.
The open field has amazing views over the ocean and the best views of the sunset. Only topped by the top of the dog field which again has even more incredible views.
Our 3 year old loved the play area and we thought the older kids play equipment was really novel - pretty sure we've not seen any of it anywhere else before! The free games in the game shack is a nice touch too!
Really lovely pitches throughout and the site is very well maintained.
Also it is super dog friendly!
Disliked: The open field is sloped, most of the flattest parts are on a 5 degrees slope. If we were in a tent it wouldn't matter as much but we had brought a van without chocks!

Love the bar and food shack. The pizzas are excellent.
The site is really pretty and grass pitches are really well kept.
Nice games area for the small kids and big kids!
The coastal path is on the doorstep and also great pub at one end of campsite.
Don't need to drive the car at all.

Excellent site with great facilities especially for younger children.
Primitive grass tent or campervan campsite (sea view, sloping)
Liked: The views are fantastic. The facilities for children are really great. There is an amazing play park and the best bit is the games room with table football, ping pong and pool tables all completely free to use. There is also a bar and food outlet onsite with a different theme each night. We had wood fired pizzas which were really nice and priced reasonably.

We loved it, very well thought out campsite, excellent facilities.
Powered grass campsite
Liked: Large separate pitch, spotless facilities, very welcoming owners/staff and the cocktail bar.
Disliked: A very very minor, road noise which was busier than I realised but did not in any way spoil our stay. It was noticeable but because everything was so perfect we ignored it.

Powered grass campsite
Liked: This is a fantastic site and the owners are friendly, welcoming and helpful. The pitches are a good size and the facilities were always nice and clean. There is an added bonus of a food hut (The Sunday Roast is a must 😋), and there is also a small bar. Also there is a bus stop close to the main gate too. Would definitely stay here again.

Good pitches, clean facilities, level pitches
Powered grass campsite
Liked: The scenery, the staff, the pitch, the food/drink options
Disliked: Beach closed off (not the camp sites fault though) just wish this was told when booking
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We are emailing all bookings to make them aware of the beach, we are sorry you dropped in between us sending and you booking. Pitch Up have taken an age to update the listing but hopefully this reflects now.
