You will need your car to get places from here

A great site, superb location in a very popular area for holidaymakers at peak times. Instead of focussing on the excellent on-site facilities you expect from a Club site I want to highlight the issues associated with getting anywhere from the site - realistically you will need to use your car for days out, going to the shops or going into Woolacombe. There is a very pleasant old railways track for cycles and walking into Ilfracombe, but at 5 miles it's not suitable for a quick journey by foot. Whilst there is a recommended walking route into Woolacombe, it involves going across fields where the path isn't really clear, and crosses a busy field of cattle which my wife flatly refused to attempt! We tried several options into Woolacombe, following the road route, but the problem is that there are no paths alongside much of the road. I really can't see where the local authority are spending the highways money - certainly not on safe paths. If you have younger children, don't attempt to walk - instead you will need to take your car into Woolacombe, park it at £4 for half a day (or £7 for a full day). We were surprised just how busy Woolacombe gets at peak times - if you do go down in your car, be prepared to be sat in a queue for the final bit of your journey. All the above sounds like a massive gripe and it in no way reflects on the efficient running and operation of the site. Willingcott is a lovely site, but it is not near a beach and at peak times I am sure families will get frustrated at how much time they will have to spend getting anywhere in the car I'm sure off peak visitors will not have an issue with the car problems
