Welcome to The Stables Certified Site

Quiet and Peaceful campervan & caravan camp site inbetween Saunton and Braunton, near to both the village of Braunton and the beaches of Saunton and Croyde. The site is just off the Saunton Road opposite Lobb fields Caravan park. The site is set in 7 acres of beautiful hay meadows. The site is a 3/4 acre level site set in a young fruit orchard & hay meadow. This is a 5 van site for a max of 5 campervans or caravans who are members of the club. The site is licensed by the camping and caravan club, but you can join the club on the site. (Not a member don’t worry, you can stay on this lovely site and just test it out to see if you want to join at a later date. Just take a joining leaflet home with you after your stay.)

We can accept tents although we have no toilet or shower facilities currently, so you need to bring your own toilet & washing facilities. (We have a small portable chemical tent toilet & basic portable camping tent shower for hire @ £2.50 per night). For those on the hiking the coast path who want to stay a night see below

The site is near to the sand dunes of the UNESCO Braunton Biosphere and you can hear the crashing waves when the surf is up, just by opening the door. The site is near to ocean and has a wonderful ocean light and in summer the fields are brimming with wild flowers. The nearest beaches are close by at Saunton and Croyde. You can also access the beach over the sand dunes by parking in the Sandy Lane car park which is nearby or the car park at Saunton Beach 1.5 miles along the road. There is a very efficient bus service 200m from the site which will take you to all the nearby beaches & places of interest. The site is near to the art studio of popular local artist and author Pete Caswell. View Pete Caswell’s paintings
