Point de vue / parking désigné. Petite aire de pique-nique avec une vue imprenable sur la côte. 5 minutes de ilfracoobe.

Designated view point/car park. Small picnic area with amazing view of the coast. 5 mins from ilfracoobe. Just off main road. With a Sun set over the ocean.

Stayed last night and found it to be peaceful.

Kleiner Parkplatz direkt an der Straße. Aussicht durch hohe Brombeerhecke verdeckt. Ende August war es sehr voll und laut. Schlechter Internetempfang (4 versch. Anbieter).

    nice little picnic spot. enough space for a few vans including longer ones. 2 others stayed when we stayed. quite at night but dose get busy. there is a small no overnight parking sign or the entrance but we stayed for the night no issues. good grass area and sea views. lovely bay just down the road.

  • 4/5

    Nice views and a simple stop for the night with a few benches to sit on.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here Easter Sunday for the night. Great views and very quiet.

  • 4/5

    Stayed here this weekend, no camping signs, but wasn't bothered by anyone, the views are good but the hedge has grown quite high and blocks any view from inside the campervan,

  • 4/5

    I've stayed here quite a few times and my dog and I really enjoyed it. It says no parking overnight but everyone does it and I've not been stopped. Really lovely little village and tea cafe in a water mill must be visited!

    Arrived late at night, a few vans and cars already parked but we found a spare flat spot. Seemed quiet during the night and when we woke everyone had gone. Some great views and the village you can see down the hill has some great walks and interesting places to go on the rocky beach. There’s a Premier shop just down the hill which is great for topping up supplies.

    Stunning views and quiet although beside an A road. Unfortunately there appeared to be a couple of long term stays that had set up camp.

  • 5/5

    6 vans in total, friendly bunch. stunning views, picnic benches amd grassed area, ideal if u have a dog with you and only a 5 min walk to toilets which are open 24hrs although a bit grotty. 10 min walk bk up the hill. Nice pub within walking distance, petrol station and Londis also in the village. sign does say no overnight parking

  • 2/5

    Busy car park on the main road. Locals thought it was prudent to sound their horns as they drive past in the early hours. Would not recommend for that reason.

  • 5/5

    This was a great spot. But now there is a no camping sign. Still great to park up during the day and walk into town

  • 5/5

    Amazing sunset views with our van parked near the picnic area. Really quiet with toilets just a 5 min walk down into Hele. We stayed 1 night and no issues, would recommend!

  • 5/5

    Real nice location. We stayed here in a Motorhome. Beautiful spot with picnic benches, perfect to enjoy the sun set with a glass of whisky. Although it did say no sleeping overnight. We kept a low key and we not bothered. A short walk and you get to a little cove where we had seen others having a fire on the beach.

    Stayed here for a night there were 3 other campers / converted vans there. It does say no overnight parking but no one disturbed us. It was quiet except a few cars driving past. Great view to wake up to. There are no toilets in walking distance but a 5min drive away so not far!

  • 5/5

    Great spot for the night, road is quiet at night. Public toilets available across the small bay. Pub in the village is great for food and a few pints.

  • 5/5

    Great spot, a bit crowded with other vans but great location, close to town and view at the tip of the green area nearby

  • 5/5

    Great spot with an amazing view from the grassy picnic area which has a few benches. Had phone signal all night. Ground was mostly flat but with the tactical use of a pothole the van was almost perfectly horizontal. Occasional sound from the road (not too loud) Free Toilets down the road in a large car park next to swimming pool

  • 4/5

    There is a sign saying no camping but there were 2 other campers a motor home and my T4. very peaceful. good view and you could hear the waves just. very peaceful. small carpark though with a picnic bench. it's free so cant complain

  • 4/5

    Quiet no fuss parking. Stayed one night, 3 other vans. Nice grassy area with benches for breakfast etc. Not easy to go for a secluded number 2. Car park past Hele town has a toilet block though.

    Quiet at night. Great spot for see the sunset and stars. Stunning views if you walk to end of car park. Uneven tarmac and sloping ground. We had a great nights sleep and no bother.

    Lovely quiet place!!

  • 3/5

    Beautiful spot, lots of vans staying overnight, very popular now! At least 10 other vans when we stayed.

  • 5/5

    Very nice place with panoramic sea views. Can get busy in summer months.

  • 5/5

    Amazing location for over night stay. Also incredible sunset views. Stayed 4 nights. Two of nights other campervan was there. Few dog passerby’s. Sometimes cars come for 30mins and go. I would recommend this place.

  • 5/5

    Good place to stay we stay here lots, just wish vans and Motorhomes would park more respectfully to allow more space for others. Yes it’s near the road but not really noisy.

  • 2/5

    Laut (direkt an der Straße), voll, nicht die Beste Aussicht. Schlechter Internetempfang.

  • 5/5

    Good location, great sunset, 4 other motorhomes here.

  • 4/5

    Nice views! Good location !

  • 5/5

    Great night stop over. Lovely views, very quiet at night you can hear the sea. Slightly sloped but plenty of room. Well worth a stop over, when we stayed there were 5 Motorhomes with plenty of room between.

  • 4/5

    Gorgeous place. With sun rise over the hills and sunset over the ocean. Slight slope. Little noise from road, totally worth the view and sea noise. Little windy. BettieBus :)

  • 3/5

    Great night stop over. High winds so van rocking but safe. Road not busy. Fantastic views. Slopping site. Can hear the sea

  • 2/5

    Uneven and with road noise but okay. Can imagine the views being decent when the weather is good.

    I was just about to add this spot to the app when I realised it’s already on here. Stayed here recently. Great spot. We used the local swimming pool for a swim and shower. It was only £3 odd for a swimming session.

  • 4/5

    Perfect spot for an overnight. Little uneven and a little windy but worth the view in the morning. Very quiet and peaceful. Felt very safe

  • 2/5

    Straße recht stark befahren. Parkplatz uneben. Windig. Für ne Pause gut zu gebrauchen

  • 3/5

    Stunning views, short walk into town.

  • 3/5

    Very uneven. Ended up leaving due too feeling uncomfortable by some others in a car

  • 5/5

    Parking le long d'une route peu fréquentée le soir. Le parking est un peu en retrait de la route. Nous y avons passé une nuit paisible avec trois autres vans. Toilettes gratuites et ouvertes 24h/24h sur la plage en contrebas (5-10 minutes à pied). Belle vue sur la plage de Hele. Aucune restriction sur le stationnement de nuit, ni de restriction de hauteur ou de largeur.
