- How We Prepare the Park for a New Season
A little polish, a lot of care, and the odd bucket of elbow grease With only a short while until we reopen, there's a steady flow of activity going on here at Newberry Valley. This is the part you don’t see, but hopefully feel when you arrive, kettle (or bottle of wine!) in hand, ready to relax. Preparing the park for a new season is a bit like waking a sleeping giant after a long hibernation. There’s cleaning, checking, testing… and plenty of grunting and groaning too, as well as the occasional moment of “will we be ready in time?” (Yes, we will.) A Deep Clean from Top to Toe Because sparkling loos don’t clean themselves Before the first caravan rolls in, every facility gets a thorough deep clean, and we mean thorough . From floors and tiles to doors, showers, and every hook and handle in between, it’s all scrubbed, polished, and made guest-ready. It’s not glamorous work, but it’s deeply satisfying. There’s something very comforting about standing back at the end of the day, admiring a spotless wash block and thinking, yes… that’s how it should be. Water Safety: The Not-So-Exciting but Very Important Bit Legionella testing and peace of mind Behind the scenes, we carry out full legionella testing. It’s one of those jobs you’ll (thankfully) never notice, but it’s vital for keeping everyone safe. Every tap, shower, and water system is checked, flushed, and monitored so that when you turn on the hot tap after a long journey, it’s just comfort that flows, not worries. Fire Safety Checks Prepared for everything… except burnt sausages All fire extinguishers are tested and serviced, ensuring they’re ready should they ever be needed. It’s another one of those jobs that sits firmly in the background, reassuring, responsible, and essential. Fire bells checked and fire drill practised. Thankfully, it's rarely called into action, and we wouldn't want it any other way. Electrical Safety Across the Park Because peace of mind should come as standard Our electrical safety checks cover hook-up points, systems, and infrastructure across the park. Everything is inspected and tested so you can plug in, put the kettle on, and settle into holiday mode without a second thought. It’s all part of making sure your stay feels effortless, even though a lot of effort goes into it beforehand. The Little Jobs That Add Up Fences fixed, paths checked, hedges tamed (mostly) Alongside the official checks and tests, winter is full of smaller tasks: repairing fences, tidying paths, checking signage, and keeping the grounds in good shape. Nature has a habit of doing its own thing over winter, and we gently nudge it back into balance come spring. All the while, the woodland ticks along quietly, the lake reflects the changing sky, and we’re reminded why we love this place so much. If you’re already dreaming of spring mornings and peaceful evenings by the lake, now’s the perfect time to start planning your next stay. We’ll be ready and waiting. Just so you know we re-open on 20th March 2026... save the date!
- When the valley grows quiet: Winter reflections
There’s a particular kind of hush that settles over Newberry Valley once the gates close for the season. It isn’t empty, far from it, but there's a sort of unhurried feel. The rush of summer voices gives way to birdsong and the gentle sound of the wind rolling through the valley. Reflections in the winter sunshine Winter light arrives gently here. On my morning walks with Remy, I occasionally spot a heron standing perfectly still at the water’s edge. On mornings like these, I wander in wonder at how amazingly resilient the resident birds and animals are, with temperatures dropping to zero and below. Remy loves to follow the scents and prints from the badgers and foxes, tracing their stories across the damp grass. Life continues, just at a different pace. Yet plenty to do... Nevertheless, this is the season of job lists and preparation. A repaired fence here, a cleared path there. Time to check the shepherd’s huts, to make plans, to imagine laughter returning to the fields when spring arrives. There’s a quiet satisfaction in these months. The kind that comes from caring for a place when no one is watching. The woodland feels especially alive. Without summer’s leafy canopy, the ancient oaks show their full character — twisted, strong, unapologetically themselves. Walking beneath them, it’s hard not to feel grounded, reminded that everything moves in cycles: busy and still, full and resting. For those who work here, winter is a pause and a promise. A gentle holding of space until the doors open again and the site fills with familiar faces, wagging tails, and the quiet joy of being outdoors together. Until then, the valley rests, perhaps invites us to do the same, reminding us that there’s beauty in slowing down, listening closely, and letting nature’s quiet moments stay with us a little longer. Just so you know, we re-open on 20th March 2026... save the date!
- Your Family Holiday Itinerary: We've Done the Planning for You!
At Newberry Valley, we aim to help you as much as possible, so we've taken the guesswork out of your family trip with this useful itinerary to keep the whole family happy. Day One Arrive at Newberry Valley Park and set up camp for the week. If the kids are more of a hindrance than a help during the setup process, send them off to the play park to make new friends, and then later walk to Combe Martin for an afternoon of beach fun. Day Two Head to Hele Beach or Ilfracombe Watersports Hub for pre-booked coasteering / SUP / kayaking activities, and then spend the late afternoon in Ilfracombe Town, browsing the shops, arcades, and enjoying crazy golf, bouncy castles and play areas. Day Three Get up and out for a full theme park day. Choose The Milky Way, enjoying shows, rides, play and indoor & outdoor activities (collect a return voucher for your next visit.) For a closer alternative option, visit the Wildlife and Dinosaur Park for animals galore and soft play too. Day Four Explore the Valley of the Rocks for a while, then park up in Lynton and take the coast path down to Lynmouth for a wander, then catch the Cliff Railway back up again. Make the most of the scenic route home and stop off for a cream tea at the National Trust cafe at Watersmeet. Day Five Today is a beach day at Woolacombe for sun, sand and sea, with options for surf hire or lessons, or horse riding. On a Wednesday evening, you can even stop for the sheepdog & falconry show on the way home Day Six Get your adrenaline fix at Keypitts Off Road Adventures in the morning. Recover your energies with an afternoon boat trip departing from Ilfracombe - there's a variety of options available from the harbour. Then finish the day with fun at the slip 'n' slide Day Seven Get your animal fix today at The Big Sheep with plenty to entertain, then go for some retail therapy at Affinity shopping centre close by, or choose to finish your holiday with water fun at the Ultimate Adventure Centre. Day Eight Pack up after an action-packed week, and if time allows, take the scenic route home with a drive or even a walk over Exmoor. To make the most of your holidays, it's a good idea to book at least a couple of days in advance for each activity. Before you do, many of these activity providers offer discounts to Newberry Valley Park customers! Once you've booked your pitch or hut, we'll send you the access details to our site app, where you will find the discount details.
