Access statement

Introduction

Ladram Bay is a coastal resort situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty. It is surrounded by hills and has its own private beach. The nearest public transport is approx half a mile away. The majority of facilities are situated on reasonably flat level areas as are the static holiday homes for hire. Camping and touring caravan areas are located on level rising tiers that may not be suitable for persons with mobility problems without some form of mechanical transport.

Pre-arrival

Our colour brochure and website provide detailed information on the accommodation and facilities, that are offered, further details can be obtained via e-mail or telephone.

Arrival and Car Parking Facilities

A private road brings you down a steep hill with a controlled public car park at the bottom on the left. We operate a 10mph speed restriction throughout the park. All static holiday homes allow for a car to be parked to the door side of the unit. There is a 5 metre width between units and a minimum of 10 metres length. All tent and touring caravan pitches allow for one vehicle to be parked alongside. Extra vehicles must be left in the public car park. Windscreen stickers or car park hangers are issued to all guests for security and control of our parking facilities.

Main Entrance & Reception

The main entrance to the park is via a private road leading off from a narrow country lane. It is very clearly sign posted. This road leads you down to the park (approximately 500 metres). Reception is situated opposite the public car park and at the entrance to the static holiday home hire fleet. There are a limited number of spaces for cars to park outside the main reception including disabled parking bays for blue badge holders. Entrance to reception is a flat walkway and through a set of double swinging doors 1.5 metres wide. The area inside, approximately 3 metres by 10 metres, is level and hard wood flooring with seating and a large selection of information pamphlets on places of interest and tourist attractions in the South West.

A long counter 1.08m high and 7 metres long allows four guests to conduct their booking in process at the same time, this process takes only a few minutes and all guests are handed a welcome pack along with their keys, car passes and directions. On the right hand side of the counter is a lower desk, measuring 70cm high.

“The staff here are the best we have ever encountered at a holiday park. The pool is amazing and lovely and warm and the children’s entertainment was the best we have experienced. Thank you Ladram Bay.

Mrs M

Fantastic holiday, so much to see and do. I have been coming to Ladram for over 40 years and it never disappoints. Beautiful beach lovely location. Great entertainment and amazing fish and chips. If you visit once you will want to come again.

Jane C

The drive over the top is breath taking seeing the sea as you come past the Ladram Bay park sign and driving down to the main gate. Absolutely perfect location, brilliant friendly staff and absolutely great for value! The photos and views you can get from right in your van or lodge is insane. Even more so from the private beach only a minute or so walk away!
