Nestled in a peaceful valley near Ilfracombe, Hele Valley Campsite offers an outstanding camping experience with beautifully maintained facilities and a stunning location. Guests consistently praise the exceptionally clean toilets and showers, which are spacious, modern, and often feature private cubicles. The site provides well-laid-out, spacious pitches, many with water taps and grey waste drainage, and some with full hookups and privacy hedges. Secure barrier access and friendly, helpful staff contribute to a welcoming and safe atmosphere. The campsite is ideal for families, with a children's play park, zip wire, nature trail, and outdoor exercise equipment. Dog owners appreciate the dedicated wash facilities and waste bag dispensers. Additional amenities include laundry, recycling points, a freezer for ice packs, and a telephone box for swapping items. The location offers easy walking access to Hele Bay, Ilfracombe, and the coastal path, though the return walks are hilly. Free WiFi is available, but speeds can be inconsistent during busy periods. Minor criticisms include push-button showers with brief water flow, narrow access roads for larger vehicles, occasional road noise on some pitches, and hard ground on certain pitches that makes tent pegging difficult. The washroom block closes daily for cleaning, which some find inconvenient. Overall, the park earns top marks for cleanliness, staff friendliness, and value, making it a highly recommended destination for families and nature lovers planning return visits.
