Where are we?

We are in Westward Ho! on the North Devon coast, a small, friendly village nestled beside 2 miles of award winning blue flag, sandy beach. The South West Coastal Path runs in front and beyond the holiday park and is a true wonder, with cliff top walks and stunning beaches to explore.

When are we open?

Our park is open all year round including Christmas and New Year.

Do we accept single sex parties or groups of young adults at the park?

Our Holiday Park caters primarily for family and couples holidays. To make a booking with us the lead name – the person responsible for the booking and all members of the party – must be aged 21 or over.

Bookings from all female or all male parties will only be accepted at our discretion. If you wish to book a single sex party you must inform us of this and of the ages of all members of your party at the time of booking.

We reserve the right to retain the keys for accommodation if this condition is contravened. We also reserve the right to refuse or terminate a booking where we feel that the comfort of our guests may be put at risk. We may also cancel any online booking that we reasonably believe does not meet this criteria.

Cots conform to current EC standards and are suitable for infants up to 12 months. You will need to bring your own bed linen for cots. In some accommodation, cots will need to be placed in the lounge area although many of our caravans do have a bed which folds away allowing room for a travel cot in one of the twin bedrooms.

Can I bring my dog with me?

Dogs are welcome in selected accommodation at the Park. There is an extra charge of £40 per booking with a maximum of 2 dogs permitted.

We regret that if pets are not in attendance we cannot refund this charge.

If you arrive into a Holiday Home that does not accept pets and if you arrive without advising us that you have a dog with you then you may be asked to leave and will be charged an additional fee to cover additional deep cleaning in the accommodation.

Other pets (eg cats, birds, hamsters etc) may be accepted at the discretion of the Park General Manager.
