Book your half-term holiday at Ladram Bay.

We know that booking holidays can often feel like a stressful event, with so many options and things to consider. We’ve put together our top tips for perfectly planning your 2024 holiday. Plan around 2024 bank holidays Not only are long weekends at Ladram Bay the perfect escape from reality but booking a whole week off around a bank holiday means you get to save a day or two of your all-important holiday allowance and have a nice long (and well needed) break, too. Book for annual events Outside of the summer holidays, we host plenty of entertainment around the Easter holidays and Halloween to name but a couple. There’s fun for the whole family – from Easter egg hunts for the little ones to fancy dress parties for young and old. It’s always worth a visit to see what we’ve got going on! Check out or visiting acts, too. With a full entertainment programme all season long, there’ll be something you love. Book ahead Save on stress and plan your 2024 holiday well in advance. You’ll thank yourself next year! We offer a deposit scheme that allows you to pay the balance eight weeks in advance of your holiday, which gives you plenty of room to breathe. Look at off-peak dates We know the buzz of the summer holidays isn’t for everyone. For maximum R&R, look at dates outside of peak season when the weather is still warm but the little ones are back at school. Our season runs from March to November, so there’s plenty of time to explore the Jurassic Coast in a laid-back fashion. Check for last-minute staycations Not a forward planner and fancy a spontaneous getaway? Why not. It’s always worth checking availability online or giving us a call on 01395 568398 – you never know what will be available last-minute in your budget. Explore different accommodation types We’ve got lots of different accommodation types here at Ladram Bay depending on what kind of holiday you fancy. If you love being in the great outdoors, bring your tent or tourer and enjoy views out across the bay, or glamp in one of our Otterpods and experience the best of both worlds. If a little luxury is your idea of a holiday, our sea-view holiday homes and lodges can’t be beaten for the ultimate family getaway. Give it a try and have a holiday you won’t forget.

We’re sure you’ll agree they’re all superstars.  There’s been some famous faces here at Ladram Bay over the last few months. It’s been great to have been showcased on both ITV’s This Morning when we welcomed Josie Gibson to the park – airing in August – and Channel 4’s Best of British By The Sea earlier this year with Ainsley Harriott and Grace Dent. It’s wonderful to see our park get recognised nationally. It was also great to invite Exeter City Football Club for lunch as part of their pre-season schedule earlier this month. It never stops!

Throughout what has been a tricky couple of years we’ve all learnt lessons and introduced many new ways of working, some of which we’ve found to improve our offering such as leisure booking systems and the introduction of our app. As a result of changes introduced, we have also made the decision to keep the park closed to all day guests between March – November to allow you and our holiday guests to enjoy the best possible holiday experience.  Sales  Having had such a huge demand for holiday homes driven by staycation, we entered 2022 with over 20 new sales still pending from 2021, as well as releasing the brand-new plots/homes for 2022. Despite high demand, manufacturing, and availability challenges we have moved swiftly to secure an outstanding, although limited selection of 2 and 3 bedroom homes. Considering holiday home ownership?

It has been fantastic to see so many guests enjoying peak season, we can hardly believe summer has been and gone already!    Every department has worked so hard in keeping things going during what has been a challenging time for all. We’d like to extend a huge well done.    Summer 2021 has boasted many highlights. You may have spotted our feature on ITV’s This Morning as part of presenter Josie Gibson’s recent challenge to master the art of paddle boarding after a lesson from expert SUP instructor @beachy_becks. Following her charming showcasing of the bay, and desire to return for a summer stay, Josie was the perfect choice to cut the ribbon for the official opening of our new Adventure Playground alongside her lovely family.   2021 saw the launch of our summer street food festival. Culinary delights included seafood from Harry’s Kitchen, Indian dishes with Simon’s Kitchen, and woodfired pizzas from Dough Bros. We have been proud to host such creative and diverse vendors throughout the summer and do hope to include them in future October plans and the season ahead.   The August bank holiday attracts many excited guests to Ladram Bay and this year was no exception. We were happy to welcome a pod of dolphin visitors back to our waters and lucky Neil & Bev Sudgen captured some amazing video footage. Here’s hoping they become regular visitors! We’re delighted to have recently invested in 5 brand-new top-of the range washing machines to be housed within our main Launderette adjacent to the Reception building. In addition to a more reliable and efficient service, these impressive new machines now available will include a contactless option for payment.  A Sensational Team Our incredible team have time & time again demonstrated their commitment, determination, and superb skills. Summer superstars of our monthly #teamstar accolade include: May – Dina, Housekeeping  Always reliable and extremely loyal, cleaning both accommodation (more holiday homes than ever before to an exceptional level!) plus park facilities, it’s a pleasure to have her on our team.    June – Guy, Restaurant Supervisor Consistently a strong performer providing huge support to the Three Rocks management team and inspiring those around with a positive can-do attitude.  July – Toby, Maintenance Labelled as ‘Ladram’s Most Improved Team Member’ Toby’s knowledge and skillset continues to grow and grow, matching his contagious enthusiasm.   August – Ben,  Leisure Demonstrating an excellent work ethic and commitment to helping others; Ben’s determination and superb communication skills have been a fundamental asset to the team. After an outstanding 8 years of dedication to her role at Ladram Bay Holiday Park, we’ve waved goodbye to our wonderful Jobs Controller Jasmin Horne. Originally joining us in 2013 as a member of the Reception team, Jas has proved to be a loyal, talented, and driven team player, strengths which she will no doubt need in her new administration role. We’d like to take this opportunity to wish Jasmin all the very best for her exciting future and thank her for her hard work and commitment, we’ll all really miss her!   Joining the office team and taking over the helm from Jasmin in the pivotal position of Jobs Controller is Sam Brown. “I’m originally from the East Coast but mostly grew up in Gloucestershire. I’ve moved around quite a bit including Lancashire, South Devon and most recently just north of Bristol. However, the pull of the Devon coast has led me to find the stunning Ladram Bay and I’m looking forward to making this rather special place my home. After spending many years working in primary education and healthcare, I’m looking forward to working in a new environment and seeing people at their happiest. And who could be happier than being by the sea in a place like Ladram Bay, where I’ve already received the warmest welcome.”  Another team member to introduce: affectionally known as ‘Big Boy’ our brand new tractor, the John Deere 6100m, boasts a max power of 111hp. Perfect for essential jobs plus caravan and motorhome manoeuvres. We’re not sure it will stay this sparkly clean for long though! The Three Rocks     We are so happy to finally have a sense of normality and are able welcome people back through the doors with lowered restrictions. The investment in the booking system has greatly helped us in Pebbles over the summer in controlling bookings and the flow: please continue to book via the app or the website where possible.  Our complex team are the true embodiment of a united front, with this incredible group pulling together through several challenges thrown our way. From the ‘pingdemic’ to hospitality shortages, they have honestly been our greatest asset and have never failed to continually amaze us with their dedication and energy! We are so proud and lucky to have such a talented team working with us and happy to be moving into quieter days with the hope of getting some well-needed rest. Our Team Leader, Guy, deservedly achieved Team Star of the Month for August for his huge efforts and involvement in aiding the Management Team with the running of the Three Rocks through this eventful period. A huge shout out to Team Leader, Harry, who achieved a summer recognition in July for his outstanding performance in running Waves Bar and for always being a positive force! We wish him good luck, along with a few of our others who are now beginning their university journeys. As you can imagine, the kitchen team have been exceptionally busy with our new Head Chef Caroline thrown straight in at the deep end! Despite adjusting the menu through our challenging period, she and the team have continued to experiment with some delicious specials, including some enticing fish dishes such as the Seafood Linguini and the Pan-seared Seabass, as well as modern twists of classics including the Pork, Cheddar and Black pudding Scotch Egg. They are looking forward to creating some seasonal specials for the upcoming weeks so please keep an eye out on the specials board.  The bar team’s cocktail menu has been a hit over the summer, and they are excited to play around with some creative autumnal cocktails. Watch out for their newest inventions very soon.  Thank you to everyone who has dined or drank with us over the holidays – we are so grateful for your support. Entertainment Since the relaxation of the rules in July, we’ve been so happy to get you back where you belong: on the dance floor and enjoying many a night in Waves Bar with us!  We have been fortunate to have some absolutely fantastic live acts from bands, singers, comedians, wrestling & science shows, to PJ parties and fancy dress nights.
