Home description
This is a privately owned chalet, on the edge of Bideford Bay Holiday Park, with a stretch of grass in front, then nothing but steep wooded cliffs between the chalet and the sea. In season (easter - end october) the site has many facilities including a shop, indoor and outdoor heated swimming pools, all weather sports court, reception, launderette, children's play area, adventure playground, crazy golf, and organized activities and entertainment.
Out of season it is a nature lovers and walkers delight, the surrounding woodland is managed by the Woodland Trust and the Park itself has a David Bellamy Conservation award. Site facilities are closed from November to late March and the site is very quiet. A shop and post office are available at Bucks Cross when the site shop is closed.
