Alan Rogers Review
With sea views and within walking distance of Woolacombe’s lovely sandy beach, this family park has been terraced out of the valley side as you drop down into the village. Apart from its smart entrance, it has been left natural. The pond and stream at the bottom are almost hidden with gated access to the National Trust fields across the valley. The 200 terraced level grass pitches, all with 16A electricity, are accessed by gravel roads with some good up-and-down walking needed to the toilet blocks (may pose a problem for visitors with disabilities). Some 50 mobile homes and 14 bungalows are in the more central area, and tents tend to be placed on the bottom terraces.
