Little Roadway Farm Campsite
Little Roadway Farm Campsite in Woolacombe is a long-established family-run, family-friendly campsite nestled on the edge of the beautiful North Devon coast
Owners: Kerry and Tim White
Actions to date:
Vegeware cups for any takeway coffee cups but encourages campers to bring their own
Swapping all cold drinks to cans and trying to minimise any single use water bottles being sold by encouraging campers to refill at the campsite taps
No plastic straws are used and they are trying to minimise anything with a straw attached i.e. cartons
Wooden knives and forks available but they encourage campers to bring their own
Big pump bottles are used for sauces
Offers a 10p discount for bringing your own coffee cup
Recycles all cardboard, cans, glass and plastic. They also send their milk bottle lids to a charity to raise money
They have areas set up on site where people can leave items that they no longer need, or want to take home, and others can use, for example buckets and spades, bodyboards, bbq’s, books, magazines, cool boxes, tents and wind breaks
Any soap left at the campsite is sent away to be recycled and any shampoo that is left is used to wash the alpaca fleece which Kerry’s mum knits and spins into yarn to knit with!
Working on:
Trying to create as little waste as possible!

“As our business we started our plastic free journey last year, by introducing the vegware products and making sure all of our teabags, coffee granules go to compost and waste veg goes to the chickens, (from the takeaway side of the business). As a family and as a business we feel really strong about reducing waste.
We are working with our suppliers to reduce plastic as much as possible but what we are hoping to achieve this year is to find a company who will take and reuse any damaged old tents, air beds, and help spread the ‘plastic free’ pledge amongst our campers.”
