About Chapelcombe Caravan and Motorhome Site

Andrew and Tracey’s family ran Chapelcombe as a five-pitch Certified Location for more than 40 years before it became so popular that they went independent and added more pitches. It still has the friendly, secluded feel of a small farm site, spread over two acres in the South Devon National Landscape, and it has been rated 10 out of 10 on UKCampsite.co.uk.

There are 20 pitches, part grass and part hardstanding, each with an electric hook-up and wide-open views over the South Hams countryside. On site you’ll find ladies’ and gents’ toilets and showers, free WiFi and chemical waste disposal. The farm sells its own fresh eggs and preserves when available, along with frozen beef and lamb packs, complete with a freezer box for the journey home.

Dogs are included in the standard pitch price along with electric, water, an awning and one car. Please keep dogs on a lead around the site. There are plenty of walks straight from the gate, including routes that link up with the South West Coast Path, and Andrew and Tracey recommend Wonwell Beach and Ayrmer Cove, both a short drive away, as the places to head with a dog. Bigbury Beach itself has a seasonal dog restriction between 10am and 7pm from 1 May to 30 September, so save that one for out of season or early and late in the day.

You won’t need to go far for supper. The Pickwick Inn and the well-stocked Holywell Stores, with its post office, are both 200 metres away, The Oyster Shack is three quarters of a mile down the road, and Burgh Island with the Pilchard Inn is close by. Modbury is four miles away, Kingsbridge eight and Salcombe twelve.

One tip from the owners: avoid following a sat nav to the site unless it’s caravan friendly, and use the directions on their website.
