What customers say
This is a highly praised, peaceful, and scenic campsite with excellent owners. Visitors highlight the beautiful countryside views, quiet atmosphere, and clean, well-maintained facilities, including showers and communal spaces. While some describe the facilities as basic, they are consistently found to be more than adequate. Minor points for improvement include potential confusion with advertising and very narrow local lanes for larger vehicles. Overall, guests found it a welcoming and tranquil getaway, with many eager to return.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
We’ve stayed in many campervan / camping sites.. this is a favourite!
Non-electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked From Sue: loved the stunning location and the facilities were outstanding. Sharon’s communication was top notch and she couldn’t have been more helpful. Shower blocks were excellent and superbly cleaned and it was a nice touch having the communal area for washing up with all the mod cons provided
From Paul: beautiful scenery in an idyllic location. Access to a four ring gas hob in the kitchen and washing up shack was very useful when we ran out of gas onboard the van. If our fridge had broken down we’d have used that in the kitchen as well :-) …Sharon and Tom we’re truly lovely people who obviously care about the holiday makers staying at their site and do all they can to ensure your stay is just perfect.
Disliked What’s to dislike? Absolutely nothing. We loved our stay and we will be back.

From the manager: Thank you Sue and Paul for such a lovely review. It was lovely to meet you both and that’s what makes it all worth it. Thank you for staying and we hope to see you both again soon.
All the best. Sharon and Tom x
Amazing value for money.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked I honestly think this is one of the best if not the best campsite we've stayed on. The facilties were absolutely perfect and so clean, the showers were nice and hot and again absolutely spotless. The communal kitchen is such a lovely little touch and it's stocked with anything you need to cook a meal, make a cuppa etc. Even the washing up area is lovely, black bags if needed, tea towels etc. I always say it's the small touches that make all the difference and this is very true at Willow farm. Very nice views and listening to the owls at night was lovely. We will 100% be back. Sharon was very helpful in answering any questions I had. Both Sharon and Tom have made this site a wonderful place. Thank you to you both once again.
Disliked Nothing.

Great site in peaceful spot with lovely helpful owners.
Non-electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Very quiet and peaceful site with lovely views. Spotless facilities which were new. The washing up hut was great - it felt like being in someone's kitchen. Also, great communication with owners.
Disliked Nothing really.

From the manager: We’re so glad you enjoyed staying at Willow Farm. It was lovely to meet you.
I’m sorry you felt rushed at the shower. There are two separate toilets in the camp field but I think that weekend was particularly busy. Even so I’d like to think my guests could shower in peace !
We hope you will return and thank you for enquiring after Tom… he is home !! All the best. Sharon x

So peaceful, with a lovely view
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked So peaceful, with a lovely view of a neighbouring farm's sunflowers, and sheep (and you may spot deer or three in another field too).
You can choose your spot.
I felt very safe and even left my tent flap open for the whole night, to get the feeling of being under the stars.
A great short walk through a wood with a pretty stream to Stoke Abbott, a fascinatingly historical village.
Messages with the owners imparted a friendly, relaxed vibe.
I hope to return one day with more time to enjoy the local walks than I had on this occasion (1 night's stay).
Disliked The pitch I chose had a slight slope, which I only realised when I went to lie down, but it was solved by turning myself 180 degrees so that my head was a bit higher than my feet! After doing that I was no longer even aware of the slope.
There is no shower in the tent field area, but it seems you could pay extra to use the facilities of the hard-standing area. (I didn't, on this occasion). May I suggest a shower next to the toilets in the tent field, which could take coins or tokens?

From the manager: We’re so glad you enjoyed the camp site and would like to return 🤗
Regarding the showers.. there are 3 full bathrooms with showers for a small fee. And these are available to all campers at the site.
The fee just covers soap, cleaning, hot water & toilet rolls. And there’s a little hop over for the guests from the tent field to easily access them.
Hope this helps for future visits 🙂
All the best. Sharon and Tom x
