Why stay here ...

Sadly, Ilfracombe Club Campsite has seen a decline in member visits over recent years, making it unsustainable to continue operations. As part of our strategy to focus on locations that better align with the requirements of the membership, we have recently acquired campsites like Lickpenny Matlock, enhancing our network in popular areas. While the closure of Ilfracombe may be disappointing, our UK Club campsite network now offers approximately 180,000 more available pitch nights than in 2018, across fantastic sites that cater to the interests of the wider membership.
