We went to this site as Willingcott was full. I'm so glad we did as the site is beautiful. Well cared for grass pitches set out to maximise the lovely views. So quiet even in the summer holidays and great wardens. Having no toilet block made us realise that we don't need to pay for those facilities as we have everything onboard. Location was great for us. We did three cycle rides from the site including cycling to Braunton to pick up the Tarka trail all the way to Bideford (and back 40 miles). If you like sea swimming (rather than surfing) i recommend Hele bay near Ilfracombe.

Ilfracombe Caravan Club site has a magnetic quality which makes you keep going back! By the end of this season we'll have enjoyed more than five weeks at this truly wonderful site this year alone.
The location is fantastic, close to the towns and beaches of Ilfracombe, Woolacombe, and Croyde. A little further afield are Barnstaple, Bideford, Westward Ho!, Clovelly, and Lynton & Lynmouth.
The site is immaculate in every respect. The grass is always neatly manicured, and the refuse, water and waste areas are spotlessly clean. This site is made better by the absence of hard standings as it makes the site even more green and beautiful.
There are two touring fields, with access roads arranged in a figure of eight pattern. The first has some sloping areas, with views to the sea, and tends to be more adult oriented. The second is almost flat, with views towards a Combe, and during school holidays tends to be more child orientated.
There tends not to be many children on site, however the families who do visit the are always well behaved and it's a pleasure to see the children making new friends and playing together, just as we did as children.
The site is in a rural area and is surrounded by the sights and sounds of the countryside. This week the farmers have been cutting grass in the nearby fields, which is fascinating to sit and watch on a warm summer evening.
Last but not least, the Wardens deserve an extra special mention. Kath and Pete are the finest Wardens we've had the pleasure of meeting. Friendly, professional and always helpful, the passion they have for their job is reflected in this beautiful site, and it's magnetic appeal.
We're fresh back from at 16 night stay at this wonderful site, having arrived home a couple of hours ago, and we're already looking foward to our next visit. Highly recommended!
