Family-Run Branscombe Airfield Campsite Combines Aviation and Adventure in Devon

Branscombe Airfield and Camping, located near the charming seaside village of Branscombe, offers a unique camping experience that appeals to traditional campers and aviation enthusiasts alike. 

Situated approximately 150 miles southwest of London, this campsite features its airfield and runway, providing visitors with an unforgettable adventure in the heart of Devon.

The campsite offers 25 power pitches near the airfield, providing prime views of aircraft landing and taking off. For those preferring a more traditional experience, there’s a large section dedicated to non-electric tent camping

Pricing ranges per night, depending on the pitch type and season, with additional fees for dogs, children aged 5-15, extra cars, and gazebos.

According to an article published by Devon Live, Branscombe Airfield and Camping is a family-run enterprise managed by the Hayman family. They pride themselves on offering a personal touch that larger commercial sites often lack. 

“We have plenty of wide open space with views of rolling Devon countryside and distant sea view. Our pitches are extra large, powered, or non-powered. We have a safe, enclosed play area for children with plenty of space to play football and other outdoor pursuits, as well as a small indoor games room. For our dog lovers, we have a dedicated exercise area,” Branscombe Airfield and Camping stated on its website.

Safety is paramount at the campsite, with strictly designated areas ensuring visitors don’t get too close to the runway. The site offers amenities including free showers, a spacious dog walking area, and an enclosed play area for children. For indoor entertainment, there’s a small games room, and a shop on-site provides essential supplies.

Branscombe Airfield Campsite also offers a range of services and amenities designed to enhance camping experience. Accommodations include a two-bedroom established static home, perfectly situated for privacy and featuring distant sea views. This home is equipped to comfortably host two adults and two young children, boasting essential amenities such as a TV, kitchen appliances, BBQ, and quilts and pillows.

In addition to its accommodations, other amenities include a BBQ, quilts, and pillows, limited Wi-Fi, freezing capabilities, phone charging stations, a chemical disposal point, and tourist information.
