Liked: 2nd time at this campsite, last time in a tent this time in a campervan. Great site, fantastic views across farmland. Quite family and dog friendly site with the added bonus of planes taking off and landing. Lovely beaches nearby. Amenities are excellent for showing and washing up, with a utility room that holds fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer. We definelty will return again.

Liked: Loved our stay at Branscombe campsite. Everyone was so welcoming and incredibly helpful as we arrived in very stormy conditions! The showers and toilets were lovely and clean, and the utility room with a wash machine and tumble dryer came in very handy after my little boy fell over in the mud! The kids loved the games room, and the playground. The grown ups loved how peaceful the site was 😊
