Little Shelfin Farm Campsite sits on an 80-acre working sheep farm near Ilfracombe, Devon, just ten minutes from Woolacombe beach. It's a small, quiet, family-run site offering large flat grass pitches, with 18 electric hook-ups and 22 non-electric pitches, plenty of space for tents, caravans or tourers, and room for awnings and cars alongside. Well-behaved pets are welcome throughout the season, and there's a dedicated dog walking area. On site you'll find a toilet block with showers, water taps and washing-up facilities. The Tarka Trail's footpaths and cycle routes are close by, Exmoor National Park is a short drive away, and a bus stop is within a ten-minute walk, with a supermarket and local restaurants a short drive from the campsite.
