Crossways Country Park

Crossways Country Park sits about three miles from the market town of Barnstaple, in the rolling countryside of North Devon near the village of Landkey off Blakes Hill Road. The park offers electric and non-electric touring pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes, plus a Shepherd's Hut for anyone who fancies turning up without their own kit. On site there is a launderette, a washing-up area, washrooms and a dedicated dog-exercise area, and well-behaved dogs are welcome throughout. A ten-minute walk reaches the Jack Russell pub, named for the reverend who bred the first Jack Russell terrier locally. Crossways Country Park makes a practical base for the Tarka Trail, the long traffic-free walking and cycling route across North Devon, with Exmoor National Park a short drive north and the surf beaches of Croyde, Saunton and Woolacombe within easy reach. It suits touring families and couples wanting a quiet countryside pitch rather than an entertainment-led holiday park, as there are no on-site bars or pools. Booking is handled online, so confirm seasonal opening dates and current pitch prices before you travel.
