We have just returned from this site a day early, some of the reasons were the weather, but also the following things (1) having been told that they had only 1 pitch left we thought we were lucky to get in , it was on a bad slope and there were loads of free pitches on other fields and level ones at that ! (2) Teenagers roaming the site at 2am and 4am in the morning ( I know there parents needs stringing up) but the site should be able to sort them out. (3) It is very much a typical resort where they are heavy into commercialism charging £30+ per night then charging for every other function on the site including £1.25 for swimming pool. (4) JCB and diggers going up and down the road even on a Saturday ! Positives were very clean toilet/shower facilities and friendly staff.We will not revisit this site again we do like sites which are slightly quieter and less hectic, although this is a really popular site there are 5 or 6 fields full of touring caravans
A big site but could not fault a thing was a bit apprehensive being a big site but could not resist the offer of a week for £39-95 for over 50's every-thing inc--we had a great time--the showers were brill water always the same temp.(just right-)-lots of wash-up sinks water always hot even a cloth for wiping round the sink when you had done--every thing was spotless at all times--but it was-a quiet time & we silver surfers are considerate campers!- the site was well laid out & tidy @ all times the wooded walks were nice the pool great cant recommend this place enough we had a very good holiday
A fantastic site and excellent facilities. Pitches were very big, which gave us a lot of privacy. The site wasn't too overcrowded which was good. The swimming pool was brilliant with cubicles showers,lockers and even a shop. The kids loved the horse riding and for 1 hour it was £14 which was very reasonable. The toilets and showers were basic but there was only 7 showers and in the mornings you can imagine how full it would be.(a bit of a queue). Very well stocked shop, lovely fish and chip shop and the pantry served excellent food. Will be returning again.
Pitched up in the wind and rain, possibly becasue of the sites location but even when the sun started to shine there was still quite a lot of breeze. We visited this site with my family and we found they had excellent facilities for my nieces and nephews. Our pitch was a good size and ideally located for the toilet block. We found all the facilities excellent on the site (pub, shop, swimming pool, playground etc) The staff were friendly, especially the ladies in reception.
All attractions were a car journey away, but we spent most of our time in Woolacombe anyway which was fantastic! Bearing in mind we had torrential weather for two days, the toilets and showers were kept as clean as they could (lots of grass and muddy puddles were constantly creeping in!) The water was hot and there was never a long wait to use the shower. All in all we had a great stay and we would definitely visit this site again.
This is the second visit we have made to Stowford. My children loved the site just like last year. The kiddie cars, crazy golf and swimming pool were brilliant. The sites are spacious. It is the perfect place to explore North Devon. The shop is really well equipped and the takeaway serves delicious food whether it is pizza or fish and chips.This is a fantastic site for children.
Despite this, we won't be rushing to return to Stowford. Last year we had a peaceful holiday although this year we were disturbed in the middle of our last night by rowdy teenagers shouting at the top of their voices to the point where I was worried they might come onto our pitch. In fact they were on next doors pitch. (could have been drunk??) It was at 1 o'clock in the morning. We have noticed how there are alot of teenagers hanging around the pub and games room which is fine, they were perfectly nice. But, when I heard the rowdiness on the playing area behind our pitch I felt the site had disappointed me. The site owners should be checking this. I feel the site is too big now to control who is on the site and to check everyone is abiding by their rules to not spoil the enjoyment of others.
The toilet blocks seemed clean most of the time but badly kept with weeds growing and cigarette butts. I thought this might be better kept. Even though the blocks probably need refurbishing the showers were nice and hot.
All in all we still had a nice holiday. Hopefully what we experienced was a one off. I hope this site doesn't go down hill as it is a lovely place.
This award winning Adults Only campsite has a working 17th century watermill in a peaceful wooded valley within the Exmoor National Park. Grass and hardstanding pitches, all set beside the River Exe or the sparkling mill stream, with electric, water, drainage, and TV hook-ups. A leisurely stroll up to a weir, and an area where dogs may run free and splash in the river.
Facilities include the beautiful dog walk, free wifi, fishing, modern toilet and shower block, dog wash, working watermill (tours on most Sunday mornings), salmon pass on the weir, shop, bus service, and excellent pubs in the locality. The site has beautiful views, an abundance of wildlife and many footpaths leading directly to the Exmoor woodlands and rivers. Find out more here
We visited this site over a long weekend from 28th July to 31st July for our first visit.We were a party of three families consisting of 13 of us,and all of us had a wonderful time. Greeted at reception by friendly staff who explained all amenities available on this huge site. We camped on field three with a electric hook up, level pitch and plenty of space. Shower/toilet block immaculate with plenty of showers,sinks and toilets. Showers turned on by sensor which is good idea, also each shower cubicle had small stool and two hooks for hanging clothes and towels on. Hot water first thing was quite hot and not suitable for kids to shower in but cooled down when demand increased. Plenty to do on site and never seemed over busy. Swimming pool had excellent facilities and was like jumping into a warm bath. Pool attendant very friendly. Shop had good range of provisions and magazines, visited shop one early morning kids had nice surprise and were given free gifts by shop staff. Site restaurant okay but rather small for size of site, we had to sit at three separate tables. Devon countryside is our piece of heaven and would revisited and recommended this site to all.
I am due to visit again after a fabulous holiday at Stowford last year.
The facilities were great. The pitches were very well kept. The play area was great and the pool was lovely. The changing areas were beautiful and the showers were great too.
The shop stored everything you wanted and the caravan accessories shop was also useful. I would strongly recommend the fish and chip shop. The pies and fresh fish tasted beautiful.
This is a fantastic site for the children. The shower facilities and toilet blocks were clean, however, sometimes the cleaners occupied all of the blocks together when cleaning which meant you couldn't find a vacant loo easily.
The area is lovely and we weren't far from Woolacombe which was great, although parking for the beach was very expensive.
We can't wait to return again in August this year!
When we arrived it was very windy and we seemed to be located on the highest point on the site! But once the wind lessened the pitch was great, large and good views.
The facilities are good, we took our 14mth old son and so found the family bathroom very useful. It is easier if the baby facilities are unisex so both my husband and I could do the bath task!
Swimming pool is excellent, showers,lockers, changing cubicles.Staff are very friendly and helpful.
Location was nice, as it was on a large site in countryside, but this did mean it was a drive to shops and attractions. Be careful if using the narrow lane to Barnstaple, right from the campsite, then right at the corner,it is quicker but we met a large tanker and it was quite a squeeze!
We have just spent a fantastic week at this site over the half term holiday. We arrived in torrential rain and thought we were in for the usual treatment from the British weather! However, we awoke the next morning and never saw another cloud all week. The site is on a slight slope and all the pitches drained very quickly.
For a relatively large site, all the pitches were spacious and well spread out. We were also surprised at how quite the site was (except for us I suppose!)
The facilities (toilet blocks, pool, bar, restaurant, shop, riding stables etc) were all in fantastic condition and never over subscribed.
We also found the found the staff friendly and helpful, which always helps for a relaxing holiday.
All in all a great site. I dont usually like to return to the same site twice, but this is definitely one I would return to.
This site was lovely. Pitches are much larger than other sites we have visited. The staff are very friendly. Very clean toilets and showers facilities, which is very important when you have young children. There were also plenty of toilets and showers and we never had to queue. Very easy to find using directions from their website. Very beautiful part of the country and would definitely visit again. They also have a beautiful woodland walk as part of their campsite, which I would recommend, it was beautiful and also very peaceful. The swimming pool and changing rooms were impeccably clean and the pool was like stepping into bath water, really warm. The campsite on the whole had so much to do, it's definitely worth staying.

We visited this site the last weekend of April (May Bank Holiday). We booked due to the good reviews it has received on this site - and we weren't disappointed. The pitch felt spacious (on a slight slope) and the wash room facilities were clean and plentiful. We went with our baby who is under one and found the on site facilities very hand - the pool and shop were surprisingly large and offered good value.
When we first pulled up on the site we were a little disappointed. It was so windy, the toilet/shower blocks were cold, the showers were cramped and most of the facilities were not running (this was the first week of the Easter holidays). But...After we'd settled, the wind dropped, we found a better, more modern toilet block on field 5 and the sun came out, it didn't seem too bad at all. In fact we really enjoyed our stay there and even had a go at horse riding!
We have decided that we will go back again sometime next year as it's in an ideal position to explore the North Devon coast. It's advisable though to check what facilities are available outside of peak season if you have young children to entertain, i.e, swimming pool, games room etc...
This is a well run site but it is BIG. So big that people drive to the toilet block and don't always turn off their engines! This can be a nuisance at night if you are near the block. Also, there is construction work going on which results in a constant background drone of heavy machinery/tractors and the like from 8 a.m. to about 5 p.m.
Very nice site. Our first electric hook-up on a massive pitch. Satisfactory facilities (washrooms, shop, pool, club rooms). The site is big. They even have a field for your caravan storage (as well as a caravan maintenance workshop), impressive. The petorama for the kids makes a pleasant diversion.
The locale itself is okay, but for those with young ones be prepared for a hot and sticky drive down B-roads to your choice of beach. Woolacombe, a family favourite is superb. Car parking takes the pee a bit.
A well organised site, spacious, and clean. But, you will do a lot of driving.
What a week! Weather was the worst you could ever imagine, that said it was great. We were lashed by gales and swam the whole week as the ground provided our very own swimming pool.
But for the out of season offer we couldn't complain. Staff were so friendly, would like to think they were this friendly in peak times. Swimming pool was great, and very welcomed due to weather. Petorama brill. We did the attractions we didnt want to do in the summer, as the beach took priority. The big sheep great fum for all, especially the indoor fun palace. However i would give the dinosaur park a miss, although we did get a refund, i would not go with pushchair! Will definatly return at the same time next season
