Hi Derek and Mary
A slightly belated thanks very much for the hire of your
caravan at Easter. We had a great week, with some pretty
decent weather on the whole. The caravan is probably the
best equipped one I have ever been in – everything we seemed
to need was to hand! I think we’d got the best position on
the site and handy parking too!! The site is great –
especially for walks and we did plenty of them! Both Bucks
Mill and Clovelly were lovely – enjoyed the donkeys, but a
steep climb back up the hill – we got the bus home that day
– Izzie wasn’t impressed!!
We even managed a paddle on the beach at Instow on the
one day – really beautiful and seems untouched by mass
tourism. I wanted to go and see the gnomes, but the girls
wouldn’t let me!! Do you know where I mean? We nearly went
on that Climbing/High Wire thing by the Big Sheep, but wimped
out when we got close to it and saw it’s actual size!!
Best wishes to you both. Hilary, Tim, Katt, Liz and Izzie!!

Hi Derek and Mary,
We wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful holiday, the
van was in excellent order, very fresh and bright with a
great view of the sea - it made the holiday! the site was
great with lots of walks and friendly staff in shops etc.
Great time was had by all, Many thanks Paula Calum, Mia and Max

Hi
Derek and Mary.
I have just e-mailed to thank you for the use of your
holiday caravan it met all our expectations it was lovely and clean
just like home from home. We enjoyed our weeks holiday in
North Devon, managed to visit all the places we had been to
before we got married 35 years ago. Buster our dog loved
the walks through the woods to Bucks Mills. We took in
Clovelly, Hartland quay, Bude, Appledore, Bideford
Westwood-ho, And Torrington they brought back many happy
memories. Diane even managed to do some retail therapy at
Atlantic Village designer shops one very wet morning. Many
thanks we would certainly recommend your caravans to our
friends.
Best Wishes Geoff, Diane and Buster.

Just to let you know that we had a lovely time at
Bideford Bay. Your caravan was ideal, just far enough away from the club, which we
made good use of and all the facilities on the camp. We enjoyed lots
of walking- I don't think we have seen so many hills before! and the weather was great. We will
definitely recommend you to our friends and family and look forward
to booking more holidays with you.

We would like to take this opportunity to let you
know that we had a fantastic holiday in your caravan, which was very
clean and comfortable. The location was not only beautiful but
central for all locations we visited within Devon and Cornwall and
we have come back with some breathtaking views on camera.
Thanks again. Ian and Jean Keir.

Hi
Devon is a lovely part of the country and this was the second
time we have been there, the last time being without children.
The caravan had all the comforts of home. I took along my laptop
and the kids watched DVD's on it to amuse them while we were
cooking, etc. Clovelly is a lovely little village which we did visit but it is
really only a half day trip but we finished it off by going onto the
beech at Combe Martin and the kids had great fun looking for shells.
Woolacombe had a lovely beach and I think that the kids could
have stayed there for the whole week.
We tend to travel around when we are on holiday and visit lots of
places, Exmoor Zoo was one of them, it is not very big but very
enjoyable, we visited Bude and Ilfracombe to look around the shops.
Dartington Crystal was very good as we had hand prints of the
children done there at a very reasonable price you could also paint
glasses and lots of other bits.
There was lots of other thing to do there but with Sally being
only 2 yrs she was a little too young.
I hope this information is helpful and we intend to keep your
card handy and maybe hire the caravan again in the future.
Michelle Pearson.

Hi
Just had to write to let you know how very much we enjoyed our stay
in your caravan at Bideford Bay 3-10th June. If we hadn't made
other arrangements for the following week we'd have been ringing to
see if by any chance it was available for us to stay on!
Everything was so efficiently dealt with from start to finish, the
caravan park was so pretty, and you even arranged brilliant weather
for us!
Thanks again for a really super holiday.

Dear Derek & Mary,
I just wanted to thank you for giving me the opportunity of taking a
much needed rest in Devon. It was a lovely break for me away from home, a very good time of the
year to
go to Devon as the weather was very pleasantly sunny warm and no rain
and proved to be so much warmer than in the north. I am new to caravan holidays and would say that it really is a lovely
caravan that is equipped with lots of homely things; and I must admit to
being pleasantly surprised at the level of comfort, equipment and extras
that were available, such as the books (I left one behind for the
library)
and the extensive choice of music CDs. You have some really nice easy
listening music there. I loved the TV I did not need my glasses to watch
it or read the text! Now I know what to expect having visited that caravan and the area I
hope to
be able to book again, probably later in the season after the main
summer
break. I may even be inclined to more exploring on foot next time (must
get
some walking boots). I did get to see some of the countryside but mostly
from the car and would like to get around more next time. Once again thanks for providing a super ‘home’ for my week away.
Best wishes
Lorraine

Hi Derek and Mary, we are Jean and Bernie, but yes, everything was fine thanks.
We used the double bedroom and found it very comfy and everything was lovely and
clean. We loved the area and found the week went too quick so we may come back
again another week. Thanks a lot for a well equipped and cosy holiday home.

We must have chosen the wettest week of the year or decade!
Having driven down in glorious sunshine, as it had been for the
previous 4 weeks, we arrived at Bideford Bay. The site and the caravan looked lovely in the May sunshine,
with
views across the bay, Your caravan was really comfy and cosy, even with the rain
lashing outside. Despite the weather there was lots to do very
near to the site, all within 10 minutes drive. The Big Sheep
was lots of fun for a full day (and mostly under cover!) and
great for all ages, we especially liked the lamb feeding and the
beer tasting! Clovelly was so picturesque and the
silversmiths, near the visitor centre is well worth a look,
as
they have some unusual pieces, at reasonable prices. We had a trip out to the Eden project which took about an hour
and half, where we pretended we were in sunnier climates for the
day, and returned via the chip shop at Woolsery, which we'd
recommend. We had a few meals out and would recommend the Thatched Inn,
which is signposted, off the second roundabout into Bideford
which served a tasty selection of large portions at reasonable
prices. This was our first time in North Devon, but it certainly won't
be our last. There's much to see and do in all weathers
around Bideford Bay. We hope to return, in the not to distant
future, to sample more of the lovely walks around the caravan
park.
Regards
Chris. Andy and Family.

Hi there,
It has been very rude of me not to have got back to you sooner, I
can only apologise as things have been hectic.
We had a very lovely holiday and your caravan was really nice and
comfortable. The only trouble we had was that the TV kept slipping
away from the channel a bit. Will probably contact you again about a
future holiday but not whilst we still have my mother with us. Our
dogs were no trouble at all!!!

Hi,
just a note, albeit a bit late, to say
we had a great time at Bideford bay and the park exceeded our
expectations. It was far better than the Haven park we went to in
Weymouth last year.
Kind
Regards

Hi, Its Rachel
from Poole we hired the caravan on 15th July 2006. Just to let you know
the caravan was lovely and the site was just right for us. Will keep
your card. Thanks.

Hi Derek and Mary,
Just a line to say
what a great holiday we had at Bideford Bay. The caravan was
extremely comfortable; we really appreciated the picnic bench on the
patio, it was lovely to chill out and have our meals alfresco also
had a few bbqs. Other people were quite envious of the bbq area.
The park was great too, small enough to be friendly but with plenty
to do for all ages. Sian appreciated the walks in Buck Mills woods,
and we were able to go on all the local beaches. The food at the
Farmer’s Arms at Woolsery was very tasty and a good selection (just
a warning for those over 5’10” watch your head on the ceiling in the
bar!). Enclosed a couple of photos if you would like them in your
gallery. Will hopefully be booking again in the future.
Best wishes
Lyn, Bob, Steven
Charlton, Rachel and Peter Donnison and not forgetting Sian

Dear Derek &
Mary,
We have
just arrived back home from a weeks holiday in your caravan at Bideford
bay, 16 The Glade, Bucks Cross. I am just
writing to confirm that the caravan was left in a clean condition as it
was found. While I am
writing I would just like to commend you on the condition of the van and
its contents. The caravan is obviously one of the older models on site
but it is still very
well presented and has been well cared for. With
the small details that made us feel at home on our arrival, this in my
opinion is the way privately owned caravans stand out head and shoulders
above site vans.
Best
Regards.
Kenneth
Giles.
