NORTH DEVON CAMPING

Campsite Rules

Ocean Pitch is a cosy campsite within touching distance of the beach.

Our pitches are close together, and we do our utmost to offer a first-class camping experience; therefore, we have a few strict guidelines.

Ocean Pitch — Campsite Rules

Before you book · Croyde Bay

A few rules that keep it good for everyone.

We’re a small site and the pitches sit close together, so a handful of guidelines make the difference between a great stay and a noisy one. Here’s all of it, up front.

The rules in full

  • Please Portable speaker hanging from a tree at a campsite

    External noise

    We do our best to keep the site peaceful, and we ask everyone to keep noise to a respectable level on the pitch. Croyde Bay is lively in peak season, so the area just outside can be noisier than the campsite itself.

  • Conditions apply Campers gathered around a contained fire pit at night

    Fires

    No open fires. Small fires are fine in a designated fire pit or a bucket raised off the ground, and they need putting out with a bucket of water before you turn in.

    • Raised off the ground
    • Out before bed
  • Not permitted Golden retriever sitting outside

    No dogs

    We don’t permit dogs for campers staying over. They’re welcome to visit the site with their owners when you’re grabbing takeaway from the street food vans.

  • Not permitted Row of caravans on a grass field

    No caravans

    We don’t hold the licence for caravans, and the site is too small to host them without affecting other guests. What we can take:

    • Tents
    • Campervans
    • Motorhomes under 6.5m
    • Trailer tents
    • Roof tents
  • Please Wheel of a classic VW campervan

    5mph speed limit

    Please stick to 5mph coming in and going out. It keeps everyone on site safe, kids included.

  • Until 9pm Acoustic guitar propped against a tent

    Audible music

    Chilled music on your pitch is fine at low volume, turned off by 9pm. We reserve the right to withdraw this if it’s abused with loud music during the day or after 9pm.

  • Not permitted Large group of friends together at a campsite

    No large group bookings

    Including hen and stag parties — the site is small and it changes the feel for everyone else. Not sure whether your group counts as large? Get in touch and we’ll tell you.

  • Good to know Ocean Pitch reception building

    Check in / check out

    Check in any time after midday, check out by 10:30am on your day of departure. All new arrivals need to check in with a member of the team at reception.

    • In from 12pm
    • Out by 10:30am
  • Good to know Family camping together on the site

    Under 18s

    Every booking needs at least one adult aged 18 or over staying on site.

  • Check before booking Tents pitched close together at Ocean Pitch

    Choosing the right pitch

    Our pitches sit right next to one another, so picking the right one matters. Exact sizes are shown during booking — check your tent or van fits comfortably first.

    • Sizes shown at booking
    • See the campsite map

Not sure whether something’s allowed? Ask us before you book rather than after you arrive — we’d much rather sort it out early.
