Nice site, room for improvement facilities wise

This was a nice site located in a great part of North Devon with easy access to beaches and countryside (do follow directions from site owner rather than sat nav). Pitches are wide and well spaced and back on to a really quiet lane so a very peaceful stay. Toilet... Show more

Just spent six nights with Elizabeth and Robin on their well-managed farm and CL. Pitches are wide enough to maintain privacy and close enough to be neighbourly. Elizabeth was very welcoming and concerned that you knew where everything was and that you had sufficient information to enjoy your stay. Centery Lane... Show more

Hillcrest Farm CL

Easy enough drive down the single track road to the farm entrance, but care is needed when coming back onto the A3123 as you are near to a bend. Nice welcome from the owner who greets you on arrival, but we saw no one else after. Very large site with... Show more
