VW Camper Van Rally visits Woody Bay

Visitors to Woody Bay on Saturday morning, 25th May, were greeted by the unusual sight of 24 VW Camper Vans in the car park.

A Rally, visiting various parts of North Devon, used the station as a convenient stopping-off point, resulting in good business for the tea rooms and a full load of passengers on the 11:30 train. Known as Type 2 vans, most of these were the classic “split-screen” versions, dating from the 1950’s. They made an impressive sight in the glorious Bank Holiday sunshine.
