Sandaway Beach Holiday Park stands on a low cliff at the very edge of the ocean with breathtaking sea views. Three minutes walk down a picturesque stepped path brings you to Sandaway Beach, privately owned by us, a rocky foreshore and a sprinkling of sand but a real sun trap and haven of peace and quiet, but beware of the tides. A short scramble over the rocks takes you to our secret spot, Mermaid's Cove, this is truly a place of magic and tranquillity for that really quiet swim or sunbathe. Relax with a cool drink in our Smuggler's Bar, take in the superb sea, and Exmoor views. Enjoy excellent pub grub, and basket meals from our Chef's Corner, and view our nightly family entertainment in our clubhouse. A feature of Sandaway is our lovely kidney shaped swimming pool. There is a well stocked shop, take-away meals, pool table, amusements, a special indoor children's soft play area and an outdoor playground.

Hello Cath Thank you for taking the time to write such a fantastic review. I am thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed your stay and how helpful and friendly the staff were. We take great pride in the standard of all grades of accommodation and our customer care. It’s brilliant that this isn’t going unnoticed. Your comments will be passed on to the housekeeping team. It is rare to get a poor review about the catering, in fact yours is the first this year. However, we can all have vastly different opinions about the same subject and your thoughts have been noted. We hope that you will come back to see us again very soon. Our returning customers are so important to us. Pat Guest Relations Manager

Amazing weekend

On arriving we were made to feel so welcome by Denyse Gummow one of the managers. She showed us to our brand new luxury three bedroom caravan. 1st class. It was warm and welcoming. The beds were so comfortable. The club house was lovely with comfortable chairs and sofas.…

Weekend break

It was great. We had a lovely time on the site, the accommodation was clean and tidy, and the entertainment in the clubhouse was top notch. Matt and Phoebe were great as hosts and the games ie: Bingo, play your cards right, and kareoke were very entertaining.

Would like to up grade our caravans. We Have two booked for this weekend (Friday 31st til Monday) Is this possible? We have a 5 month old baby in the party and think a newer caravan would be better. Can you please let me know if this is possible. Many thanks.

Hello Eleanor This is a public forum. Your best bet is to phone the booking office on 01271 866766 and they will be pleased to help. Pat Guest Relations Manager

Sorry if this has been asked a million times before. Are there buses that run nearby? If so where to, and are they regular or ‘once in a blue moon’? Thanks

Hello Lady Luck To Ilfracombe and about every 30 minutes. There are timetables on reception Pat Guest Relations Manager

Hi I have booked a static through Hoseasons, can you park by the vans? If not where is the car park and are the spaces fairly big? Thanks

Hello Lady Luck Yes, you can park by the van, although the question "Are the spaces fairly big" is a little worrying. I hope you have nothing bigger than an SUV. If you have give the park a ring the day before you come. Pat Guest Relations Manager

Considering booking this holiday park for next summer. Was wondering if any grades of accommodation have outdoor seating /decking at all?

0 Votes Hello Nat I love reading the answers some of our guests give on these open questions, but you need to be careful who you believe. Andy is quite correct - the lodge is the only one with decking. "GJE" is nearly there in that it is a beautiful place and you won't be disappointed. Some changes are being made to the park over the winter months which may or may not include decking - feasibility studies are being made. We won't actually know the answers until February or March.
