Why stay here ...

Owners Andy, Nicky and two sons Tom and William look forward to welcoming you to our 5 CL site which is located 5 miles from Combe Martin, near to Blackmoor Gate.

Being motorhome users ourselves, we have tried to include everything we look for on a CL when we get away.

We have a level site with 5 hard standings pitches all with grey water waste, water and 16 amp electric hookup.

The CL has lovely views overlooking farmland with Wistlandpound reservoir in the near distance.

Nearby bus stop at Blackmore gate, if asked the buses will usually stop outside our gateway for drop off and collection.

New washing up area added 2021.

Drive over motorhome service point added 2021

Our up-to-date toilet block is heated all year round, has ample toilets and showers with free hot water, drying wall, fridge freezer and information desk. We also have a washing machine and tumble drier should you need to do any washing, this is worked on an honesty box. You are also welcome to collect your own free range eggs from the hen house.

During high season we have a small help yourself shop, with honesty box, selling our home produced bacon, sausages, burgers, chops and steaks.

We are a working farm and will happily show you around and introduce you to the animals, the pigs particularly enjoy having visitors. During lambing time, around the Easter break each year, you are welcome in the lambing shed where there are often tame lambs to feed.

We now have access, though the fields, to the footpath that leads to Wistlandpound Reservoir. For keen walkers there are plenty of footpaths from here, through the unspoilt North Devon Countryside.

We are very well located for exploring the North Devon coast including the villages of Lynton and Lynmouth and the beautiful Exmoor National Park.

A short drive will take you to the National Trust property of Arlington Court with many lovely walks around the wider estate, the house and gardens themselves, and the National Trust Carriage Museum.

Other local attractions include Lynton and Barnstaple Steam railway at Woodybay, Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway, Exmoor Zoo and of course the beautiful North Devon Coast.

The two Pannier Market towns of Barnstaple and South Molton are a 20-30 minute car drive away.

Nearby Bed and Breakfast and glamping options for other friends or family members.

Fantastic site

We had 4 great nights at this CL at the end of March. Nicky and her family were so welcoming and encouraged us to visit the barn at any time, which we did. That was a lovely experience as a cow was in the process of giving birth,... Show more

An amazing stay!

We have just returned from 4 nights at this site and it was fantastic! We knew it was lambing time and were hoping we could experience some of this and it far exceeded our expectations. We were given a warm welcome by Nicky who always seemed unrushed and ready to explain things... Show more

One of the best CL's, if not the best

This was my 2nd visit to this lovely CL site with very easy access off the main road with far reaching views from all pitches over open countryside & Wistlandpound reservoir in the distance. The road is at the rear of the pitches but did not disturb me at all,... Show more

Updated review

Updated from previous review... We have now received our refund for the unused nights - which we're grateful for. Whilst the noise from the road was still too much for us, there are plenty of positives about this site as others have mentioned, so we have upgraded our review.

What a great CL Site

Westland farm is the one of the best CL sites we’ve visited. Nicky and family are lovely and welcoming. They have great facilities and even can pick fresh eggs for breakfast from the hen house! Home bred burgers and sausage are available to buy - I can definitely recommend. Lovely... Show more

Very Disappointing

Sadly, this was one of our worst experiences of a CL. The pitches are good, but are right beside a busy A-road. Whilst it got quieter at night, there was still regular traffic that kept us awake and disturbing during the day. Having booked for 4 nights, we decided to... Show more

Lovely stay

Had a lovely stay here, Nicky very friendly and welcoming. Facilities are fabulous and so are the views. Would recommend the sausages, burgers, eggs direct from the farm. Plenty to do in the area. Would definitely return to this site.

We have just left this fabulous site today and could not fault it. Clean and level hardstanding pitches with wonderful views over the pig pen, chicken house and rolling hills and reservoir. There is a road at the rear but it did not disturb us in any way... Show more

Lovely CL, dearer than most!

We have just visited Westland Farm and it was an enjoyable visit. The pitches are fairly small I can imagine when it is busy there would not be much space at all but fine at this time of year. There are lovely views across the field towards the reservoir. The... Show more
