About Broad Park Camping and Glamping Certificated Site

The site is a peaceful place to relax. Feed the pygmy goats, horses and alpacas, cook up a barbecue, toast marshmallows over a fire (baskets and logs available to hire) and chill out under a sky full of stars which, on a clear night is breathtaking due to low light pollution. Conveniently, this base is roughly a mile from the A39, with outdoorsy options like the Tarka Trail and coastal path easy to reach and Bideford only five miles away. Pitch your tent or trailer tent on any of the ten grass pitches or choose one of the two hardstanding pitches for campervans, single axle caravans, and motorhomes only. Electric is available. Two cosy Shepherd's Huts are also available for glampers, complete with kitchenettes and double beds. A private ensuite shower room and bedding are included. Dogs on leads are welcome, please note this site does not accept breeds and cross breeds listed in the Dangerous Dogs Act. This is a Freedom Camping Certificated Site, but non members are welcome to stay.

Grass pitches are available from March to September. Hardstanding pitches are available all year.

VW-Type Campervan - Hardstanding Pitches (Optional Electric)Aug 2024

A lovely, peaceful site in a good location. Self check-in, all very easy. Very clean. Would book again.

Site's response

Thank you for coming to stay. Sorry, you thought our service wasn't great. As we are a small site, having a reception wouldn't be practical so we can't offer arrival service, as people come varied times throughout the day and evening, so sending a check-in text is the best option. We are around the campsite a couple of times a day and our phone numbers are on the board if you need any help with anything, so not really sure how to offer more of a service than that for a small site site. 😊

Hidden gem!

Medium Tent - Grass Tent Pitches (Optional Electric)Jun 2024

The most wonderful campsite! The facilities were kept clean throughout, the honesty items was such a cute addition! We absolutely loved waking up to see the goats, alpacas and horses, and you could hear so much wildlife! The owners were lovely and friendly! As a gay couple, we both felt really safe and welcome! We loved the fact it didn't have loads of pitches so our whole stay was so peaceful! We are already looking at when we can return!

Site's response

Aaaww thanks so much for the lovely review. Really glad you enjoyed your time here, thanks for coming to stay 💖
