Broad Park

A small, immaculately kept North Devon smallholding where pygmy goats, alpacas, and dark skies do most of the selling.

Broad Park sits in quiet North Devon countryside near Fairy Cross, a mile off the A39 and five miles from Bideford. The owners have built something genuinely hospitable: 10 flat grass tent pitches, every one with a picnic bench, plus two gravel pitches for campervans and tourers. Two shepherd's huts with private hot tubs round off the offer for those who want a roof.

The smallholding's animals are the heartbeat of the site. Pygmy goats, alpacas, and a horse are resident and visitor-facing: there's feed to buy, clear signage, and a relaxed welcome for children who want to get close. The owners have also put together thick binders of local recommendations, and guests mention pre-arrival emails with arrival instructions as a mark of how cared-for the whole operation feels.

Westward Ho! Beach is 15 minutes by car, the Tarka Trail and coastal path are within easy reach, and Bideford offers the full range of shops and services. The site sits in low light-pollution country, and reviewers reliably report clear night skies in good weather. Facilities are spotless: showers, toilets, fire pits, BBQ, wi-fi, and shared kitchen equipment (kettle, microwave, toaster, fridge, freezer) in the amenities block.

Before you book

Dogs are permitted in some pitches and units only, so check when booking if you're bringing one.

“A well-run, owner-present smallholding that earns its reputation through genuine care, farm animals who are actually part of the experience, and dark skies that reward staying put after dark.”
