Fantastic Site
It has all be said about the approach roads, and the Wardens being terrific, but I have a little tale to tell. We stayed in our motorhome (6.55 m length) and decided to go to Bigbury on Sea having researched the beach car park on Google Earth for any height restrictions. It looked ideal as it is a large car park with plenty of turning space. We travelled the few miles, meeting lorries,cars in the narrow lanes with passing places. When we arrived at the beach the car park was only a third occupied and I selected a suitable two bays that are marked as 5m length bays. I anticipated paying for two bays at £4 each for the day at this incredible spot on a hot and sunny day. To my dismay when I read the conditions of parking board it clearly stated that no campervans, motorcaravans and motorhomes in excess of 5m were permitted to park. I again anticipated paying for two bays but was told that this was not permitted as the bye law clearly states that no vehicles over 5m in length were permitted. The farmers field up the hill was closed ( he opens up at weekends only at a cost of £4) We left very disappointed and drove to the village of Modbury where the car park board stated that 'if your vehicle does not fit into the marked bays (5m long) then parking is not permitted'. We found an on street space up a very steep hill but didn't stay long because we felt unwelcome.Motorhomers beware!!! Great site, great wardens and great weather.
