A holiday park that has won multiple awards and has been listed among the best in the UK has short breaks for families from just £49.
The park, which has features such as direct beach access and a huge pool with waterslides, is often listed among the UK’s best parks and its location on the Devon coast means it’s close to plenty of family-friendly days out too.
This sprawling park on the outskirts of Exmouth has 1,641 caravans and lodges, making it one of Haven’s biggest locations, and it’s packed with activities to enjoy both day and night.
Devon Cliffs Holiday Park can be found in Sandy Bay, known for its distinctive red cliffs that shelter its soft sand shores. The beach can be reached via a ramp from the holiday park, and there’s a beachfront café and bar where you can enjoy the views.
At the heart of the park is a vast complex where you’ll find the indoor and outdoor pools, with the latter open during the sunny school holiday seasons. The indoor pool has a shallow water area for kids, waterslides, plus plenty of space to swim, while the outdoor pools include areas for the little ones to splash around.
Next to the complex you’ll find The Jump, a sheer drop where brave kids or adults can take a leap and land on a big soft cushion. There’s also the Aerial Adventure, where you can climb through the treetops, and outdoor play areas, so there’s lots of adventure to be had.
In the evenings, you can enjoy dinner at one of the park’s restaurants, or its very own branch of J D Wetherspoon which opened recently. The Red Rock serves all your Spoons favourites right on the park. There’s also evening entertainment from the Seaside Squad, including a new Tiger Club Show which promises a “nostalgic 90s twist”.
The park is close to Exmouth where the River Exe meets the English Channel. You can follow the path from the town to the sea enjoying the traditional seaside vibes of the promenade. There’s also the long sandy stretch of Exmouth Beach which has rockpools that are uncovered when the tide is out.
From Exmouth’s marina, you can also take boat tours along the Jurassic Coast, enjoying the sights of this stunning and historic part of the UK. During the summer months, there are also daily cruises along the River Exe, where you’ll see miles of rolling Devon hills and the area’s unique wildlife including thousands of geese, and on occasion, adorable grey seals that relax by the edge of the water.
