We don’t have a convenience store on site but there is a Tesco, on Manteo Way in Bideford (approximately 9 minutes away by car).

There is also Hedden’s Farm shop on the road to Bideford at Woodtown. Open 8 a.m. till 4 p.m. it offers milk and bread plus homegrown meat and veg. Petrol station at Roundswell, Barnstaple and Bideford.

For larger superstores we recommend Barnstaple or Bideford.

We do encourage supporting small local shops where you can as it is so critical to the local economy. Great butchers and bakers can be found in the market towns of Bideford and Barnstaple.

A mile down the road is Hedden’s.

Most lodges have a washing machine and there is a laundry shed on site that offers an additional machine and a coin operated dryer.

All rooms are cleaned to a high standard with appropriate cleaning products.

Beds are made up according to the number of guests booked and spare left in the wardrobe should additional beds be required. Each guest has a bath towel and there is a starter pack of household necessities inc. toilet roll.

Free Wi-fi is available and most lodges get a good service  BUT is slowest in Kingfisher, Otters Holt and Hunters Lodge due to the nature of the site. Speeds do vary depending on lodge location and demand, but a basic service should be available.

Most mobile phone providers provide a service here but it can sometimes be necessary to move around the site a little.

Lodges have a brick BBQ close to the lodge.

No disposables BBQ allowed. Portable BBQ’s are allowed but must be placed on either concrete surfaces/hardcore area with safety in mind.

If the weather has been very dry for a long period, we do have to ask for safety reasons that BBQ’s ARE NOT LIT (This rarely happens but it is best to let you know).

Each Lodge has space directly outside the lodge for one car. The larger lodges offer 2 spaces. Additional cars can be parked elsewhere on site if required.
