Reviewer: Kirstyam 1 review from this member

 The site was in a perfect location, a few minutes walk to the beach and town. We had a hard standing fully serviced pitch - it was a large pitch perfect for the kids to spread out, the other pitches seemed to be a decent size also.

The facilities were very clean and tidy. The site was quiet and peaceful.

The kids loved the play area. The staff were well friendly and helpful, they obviously cared about keeping the site tidy.

Our only disappointment was we had only booked 2 nights - next time we will stay for longer.

Thank you Newberry team.

 Stayed at newberry valley for the first time for two weeks and could easily have stayed longer.

The site was immaculate and constantly being kept tidy by the friendly helpful staff. The pitch was the biggest we have ever stayed on. Toilets and showers were very clean.

The site was very busy but very quiet just what we wanted. Short stroll to a dog friendly bay was perfect for a dog walk every morning and lots of places to visit locally both on foot and by car.

We will definitely be returning

 We had a lovely 5 day stay at Newberry Valley Park, the toilet /shower block was kept clean and the showers were more than adequate.

The pitch was nice and flat with a good level of privacy and the site was the most quietest we've ever been to, the town was very close by with everything you need so all in all a top site to visit.

Thumbs up to the staff for trying to encourage everyone to follow the covid rules.

 Lovely site and we had a big pitch. Showers/toilets/facilities/site always clean. Only issue is although it is a dog friendly site (not a problem even though both don't have dogs but have in past) is that one particular visitor's dog would bark at any other dog that went past at anytime (even thought the other dogs didn't). "He isnt normally like this".

Whilst it's sort of fine daytime (even though a lot of times during the day) it was supposed to be a restful time for me having been through what we have all been through recently. First thing in morning and later at night is not good.

Perhaps a reminder on booking site / sheet to ask that owners who have dogs that may not be reasonably quiet or do this perhaps should consider booking elsewhere - I am aware of the fact you are dog friendly but this was a bit too much at times - other people and dogs whilst smiling did avoid going past.

It is a gripe rather than a complaint otherwise area lovely, your staff very friendly, other visitors all friendly just that bloody dog (and its not really its fault).

We would definitely stay here again.

 What a beautiful friendly campsite. It was immaculate, and the facilities were first class.

We went just after the site reopened from Covid and was very pleased with the standard of cleaning and safety measures in place.

Only a 5 minute walk to the beach and Combe Martin. All the staff were helpful and loved to stop and chat to us.

I can't wait to book again.

 Very pleasant site, with very sensible and practical Covid 19 arrangements.

Beautiful fishing lake, but the big carp were hard to tempt.

Bins overflowing when I first went to dispose of rubbish.

Quiet even though quite busy.

Helpful and pleasant staff.

Reviewer: Nikkiwitch 2 reviews from this member

 Nice big pitches, friendly staff, quiet in the evenings, ie no big groups or parties all night, excellent clean facilities, cant really fault it.

It felt like a more premier campsite rather than your average field and I think this is reflected in the price.

I liked the eco aspect, little herb garden for your bbq needs and abundant wildlife.

 Well maintained site and nicely laid out giving privacy. Facilities very good even a bath should you wish one! Nice view of alpacas and chickens. Good fishing lake on site.

Easy walk to beach and village with shops and restaurants. Literally on the SW coast path so excellent for walking.

Very helpful and friendly site. Hope to return some time.

Reviewer: AandJ 23 reviews from this member

 What can I say about this camp site, it was just wonderful.

Nice large paved hardstanding pitches, and a picnic table per pitch, with well kept grass. Lovely friendly staff, who even helped us manoeuvre our van into place.

Our pitch had the all-in-one facility, a tap, electric point, night light and grey water drain all built in, very convenient. Lovely clean showers, with large family rooms. Wasn't that impressed with the surrounding area, pleasant enough but lacking somehow.

Coombe Martin is a sweet little place, nice chip shop by the little car park. Ilfracombe could do with a makeover, a bit tired. Barnstaple is better and a good day out, nice town. Croyde and Saunton Sands are beautiful.

Tried the on site fishing and caught nothing. There is apparently a 30 pounder in the pond, but no sign of a carp when I was there. £6 a day ticket.

There's also Mill Park, a few minutes up the road toward Ilfracombe, they have day tickets, same price, better fishing there.

 Newburyvalley is a great little find in Combe Martin really friendly staff with nothing too much trouble for them.

The showers are clean with plenty of hot water, there is a great indoor vegetable chopping area and separate washing up area which is great when the weather isn’t too good.

There is a book swop area and items left from previous visitors to use if you forgot your bucket and spades etc.

They have even done a herb garden for you to help yourself free and you can buy free range eggs

Well worth a visit

 We don't normally do large sites but this one was a pleasure. The site was over a large area and terraced. Views of countryside all around. Facilities spotless and very customer friendly. Showers ace.

Just across the main road was a footpath down to Combe Martin. A really lovely site and location. Thank you.

Reviewer: Gibsoneerja 22 reviews from this member

 Having chosen the site based on a combination of its' location, excellent environmental credentials and the universally acclaimed bathroom facilities, it was a real shame that we were deprived of making full use of the latter by a problem with the hot water for the last 3 days of our stay. At times, there was no hot water at all and we resorted to boiling the kettle on our camp stove in order to do the washing up. Arguably we were unlucky but it's not the sort of service you expect when paying premium rates.

Personally, I'm also not a fan of allocated pitches unless the site is genuinely full or sold out which it definitely wasn't. Particularly annoying when a flatter and larger pitch in the same section of the site remains empty for the entire duration of your stay.

That aside, the site is generally well maintained and the location itself is excellent. It's just a few minutes walk to the beach and into Combe Martin with almost direct access onto the South West Coast Path. Handy bus service to Ilfracombe which is a lovely resort and well worth a visit. Very small shop on site and a convenience store in the village - nearest supermarket is Tesco in Ilfracombe.

Loads to do in the surrounding area - walks on Exmoor, beautiful Lynton / Lymouth and its' extraordinary water-powered railway, great beaches and coves, plenty of activities (kayaks, coasteering, wake-boarding etc. ) and we'd definitely come back, just not to this site.

Reviewer: Two plus dog 25 reviews from this member

 One of the best sites we have stayed on. A Premier site so it's expensive but well worth paying for the facilities and location. We've stayed at sites just a few pounds a night less and had no real facilities to speak of.

It's a 10 minute walk into Combe Martin via a footpath that avoids the main road. The site manager advised this. It's a large site spread out in sections in three tiers.

The facilities were first class, two newish blocks with private toilet and washrooms, and shower rooms, there are no communal toilets/showers so you have complete privacy. However hubby tells me there is a communal urinal. The washing up and laundry facilities are excellent, spacious areas. But we are finding that campsites are charging quite a bit for use of washing machines and driers and this was no exception.

We chose a Premier hardstanding pitch which was in a section with just a handful of other campers so it felt quite private. However there are other parts of the site which had larger capacity so it would seem busier if you were located there.

The only negative that I can mention is that the tier just above us was primarily for tents and due to the close proximity they overlooked our pitch and unfortunately we were kept awake each night by a very loud snorer.

Combe Martin is a lovely little coastal village with beautiful bays, one beach is dog friendly.

Highly recommend the Dolphin Inn, excellent food and very friendly staff. Dog friendly downstairs and there is also a bistro upstairs if you prefer quieter area. There are regular buses to Ilfracombre which is about 4 miles away.

We will definitely come back to this site for all it offers on site and in the surrounding area. Maybe not in the school holidays.
