Ilfracombe Club Campsite
close panel

A very warm welcome and a level pitch in the second field, furthest from the entrance. The site is elevated and although there were no views from the pitch, it is an open site and at the time we stayed, was not busy. A well laid out dog walking area and the usual waste and rubbish disposal areas all kept clean and tidy.
The wardens clearly work hard to keep the site looking good, with well cut grass etc.
There are no loos or showers on site, but it is actually quite pleasant to use the on board facilities in the motorhome for a change! We will stay here again.
Caravan broken into on Seasonal Pitch and Gas tanks stolen
We visited the site a couple of weeks ago and liked it so much that we decided to apply for a seasonal pitch. The Wardens are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. We like the location as it is near Ilfracombe and it is peaceful and quite. Lots of Rabbits.
However we have had a phone call from the Warden to let us know that a couple of Caravans included ours were broken into in the early hours of Monday morning and our gas tanks stolen.
So beware.
We are gutted and we are due to start a 12 day holiday at the site on Wednesday. Now we have to sort this out. Not sure what damage has been done to the front panel, as it was locked before we left last weekend.
So have to ring the site this morning for the crime reference no. then the caravan club, and then the insurance co. It is for the reason I have given the site a 3 star rating, otherwise it would have been a 5 star.

excelent
This is our favorite club site. We have been coming here for a good 10 years and enjoy it each time. Quite handy for the beach at woolacombe and of course Ilfracombe.The price has crept up a bit in recent years but still well worth it. Cant give 5* for facilities as there arnt really any apart from water and toilet disposal but cleanliness and wardens are second to none.Hope to be back again soon.

A Gem of a Site
We have visited this site numerous times over the years,which we find perfect for our type of caravanning which is we like the site which has views,piece and quite,and we only require electric water.This year we have visited 3 times because the area is beautiful with the roads not too busy.The site has been looked after by 2 great wardens who take pride in their site and look after the visitors.Its all grass which is cut to a very good length.In the village there is a very good community shop and the Crown pub does excellent food Sunday lunch is like home cooked and take some beating
An excellent site
Just got home having spent 4 nights here, wish we had been able to spend longer. An ideal spot which is well situated to explore the area. the site was not particularly busy, even in August meaning we had plenty of space and didn't feel squashed in as you do on some sites. I guess the lack of toilet facilities on this site is the big bonus which puts a lot of people off but keeps the site perfect. The wardens work very hard to keep the site immaculate which is a real credit to their hard work. We were due to arrive on their day off so they took the time to phone us the previous day, explaining that it was there day off, what we should do when we arrived and to call in the office the day after to settle up. They were very helpful when we spoke to them. Looking forward to visiting again.
Really good site
Really excellent site and really bargain price. Enjoyed watching the birds swooping over the spacious site. Wardens worked hard to keep things looking lovely. Lovely views and close to some good beaches. Will be back next year.
Peace and quiet
First visit , stayed 4 nights , wardens take a pride in this site , grass mowed , service points spotless. Need a car , as site is remote .
Ideal site for kids to ride bikes, as it was while we were there , as school holidays , at £14 a night cheap for parents .

Little Gem
Great clean and welcoming site, with very friendly wardens. Our electric was tripped on the post, and the wardens came without a delay in resetting it for us, rather than letting us wait until later which some complain that some on other sites do. Would certainly return.
What a gem
We took our two grand daughters, (aged 5 and 10),
for their first trip in the caravan. We decided on a four night stay, in case they got bored or homesick, at Ilfracombe. What a good choice we made, the site was clean, pitches well spaced, wardens superb
and what a beautiful area, with all facilities within easy reach.
Our grand daughters? neither bored or homesick, "when are we going again grampy" was their reply when I asked them if they enjoyed their trip.
My wife and I will certainly return to this wonderful site, why do people need washrooms and toilets when they have them on their vans? They miss out on gems like this.

I can only echo the comments of the other reviewers. Great site who needs facilities. There is a recreation field set aside for ball games, kite flying etc.. the site is quiet but in school holidays the kids love riding their bikes around the site so please keep to the speed limit. Well kept site thank you. Oh also there is a nice doggy area for our canine friends. enjoy.
