Small touring and glamping park near Branscombe, close to Sidmouth's coast path
About Kings Down Tail Caravan and Camping Park
Kings Down Tail is a small, quiet caravan and camping park in Salcombe Regis, in the hills between Sidmouth and the neighbouring village of Branscombe. It is a modest, low-key site by design, offering touring pitches alongside seasonal pitches with storage and a handful of glamping pods, making it a good option for visitors who prefer a smaller, less commercial park over a larger holiday centre.
The park's setting is its main selling point: it sits within the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, within easy walking distance of the South West Coast Path and the dramatic landslip landscape around Branscombe, one of the most distinctive stretches of the Jurassic Coast. On-site facilities cover the essentials expected of a traditional touring park, and the rural, sheltered pitches make it a comfortable base for walkers and those touring by caravan or motorhome rather than a destination in itself.
The park operates a defined season, generally open from mid-March to mid-November, in keeping with its character as a traditional English touring site rather than a year-round resort. Sidmouth is a short drive away for shops, restaurants and the beach, while Branscombe's beach, pub and bakery are within comfortable reach for those without a car keen on a coastal walk.
