A note from the site themselves...

Welcome to Coastal Valley Camp and Crafts, a family-run campsite that was born out of our love for camping. After decades of being avid campers, we understand what makes a great campsite and have made sure that we have everything you need to make your stay enjoyable.

At Coastal Valley, we pride ourselves on our stunning location. Being in the valley, we are completely surrounded by nature, a stream, and animals grazing on the fields. It's a peaceful and tranquil place to stay, with not a car or house in sight. Yet only 1.5 miles from a beach.

We've made sure that our site has everything you need. But what really makes our site special is the community of friendly and respectful campers like yourselves that we attract.

We look forward to welcoming you soon,

Tanya and Andy

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesApr 2024

I really enjoyed my stay. Thank you to Martin and Tara, who I met on site and who showed me around. I stayed out of season and the campsite was very peaceful. It is in an ideal location, very near the beaches and town. The site itself has good facilities. I had everything I needed and really enjoyed my stay. I will definitely visit again.

Site's response
