Rainbow Retreat

Liked The camp site was really nice, perfect time of year to visit. The ground wasn’t muddy. Owners are really friendly. I happened to accidentally burn myself whilst on site and they’re stocked with a first aid kit and supplied me with aloe Vera to help. Always offering to help carry things up and down and offer wheelbarrows to help carry everything too.

Liked The wild camping feel but the luxury of a toilet and shower. Fire pit and loads of wood available. Lovely kind hosts that checked in on us the day we arrived and kindly helped on the day of departure with the transporting equipment up to the car park. The compost toilet had no smell at all. The outdoor kitchen so handy and lots of handy bits and shelter to cook if it rains, which it didn't whilst we were there. So quiet and peaceful, just lovely and relaxing.

Liked Just stunning. Set in a little woodland it was peaceful, clean and the safari tent was well equipped. The hosts were so helpful. Will be booking again next year

Liked Absolutely everything. The cabin was well equipped and the beds were comfortable. Our fire pit area was fantastic and we enjoyed both evenings sat around the campfire, cooking and playing card games. The community kitchen area was also very well equipped and clean. This is where we found lots of activities for the children to do as well. The compostable toilet was clean and again well equipped with toilet roll and hand wash. The showers were clean, warm, spacious and again well equipped with eco friendly shampoo & shower gel etc. Sammie and Luke were the perfect hosts, really friendly and very welcoming. We spent our days playing family games, cooking on the fire and making lots of nature mandalas. It was a perfect stay to escape a fast paced life. We can’t wait to return.

Liked Le Rainbow retreat est un camping rare dans le sud de l'Angleterre par sa situation dans les bois dans le respect de l'écologie. Les emplacements sont très généreux et permettent de passer un séjour tranquille en pleine nature (on a vu des écureuils, un faisan... malheureusement pas les cerfs). Les douches sont chaudes et très propres.

Bien situé, ce camping permet de découvrir le massif du Dartmoor et la côte jurassique avec toutes les facilités de la proximité d'Exeter.

Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Sammie et Luke qui ont tout fait pour que notre séjour se passe le mieux possible. Leur projet est vraiment très sympa et le camping va gagner en fonctionnalité, en confort et en convivialité au fur et à mesure des années. Nous y reviendrons avec plaisir.

Disliked Un peu galère avec les toilettes que certains usagers du camping n'utilisent pas correctement.

Liked A lovely peaceful site with everything we needed and really friendly and welcoming owners. Pitches were far enough apart to feel like you had the whole woods to yourself!

Liked Just got back from a stay at this woodland campsite and honestly, it was exactly what I needed. Super easy and stress-free from the moment we arrived — no hassle checking in, and setting up our tent was simple with loads of space to spread out.
One of the best parts was how quiet it was. The campsite wasn’t busy at all, which made it feel really calm
If you’re after a chilled-out break surrounded by nature, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Disliked No toilet roll does say to ring number and ask for anything but by time we realised there wasn’t any it was quite late and didn’t want to disturb anyone

Liked We spent 2 nights here, could have stayed for longer had it not have been for work commitments.

We stayed in the hideout for comfort as we put a lid on DIY camping a few years ago.
What a great lovely place this is.

Luke was responsive to messages the day before and we were greeted with a warm welcome on arriving.

The hideout was very well equipped and had everything we needed. It was so nice to have so much space inside and out.
Great cooking area with a double stove that heated water very quickly. Everything we could have needed to cook with - even had teabags and coffee 😍
2 double beds and a single with the option of an extra trundle bed that was stored under one of the doubles. All bed were kitted out with bedding.
A comfy 2 seater sofa, 2 comfy chairs with pillows and a blanket inside
A table with 4 chairs inside and a seating area outside on the decking.
The lights inside were cool at night, and we didn't need our torch.

We didn't make use of the communial kitchen area other than washing up (we had everything we needed to hand) but it was resourceful and a great space for campers.

The showers were hot and had enough space to get dry and changed.

The eco toilets were very clean and as a first timer using them, I was impressed.

The fire pit was great which was located within the woods and at the back of the hideout - had a table and 4 chairs. Great space to enjoy a bbq and fire.

Loved using the wheelbarrow to get our things to and from the car, what a clever idea. Luke offered to help with our things on arriving and leaving which was lovely, but it's a must to do it yourself and no more than a few to a 5 min walk.

Recommend to take wellies for the shortwalk if the weather is wet.. we stupidly wore our trainers on day 2 as we left our wellies in the car.

Luke spoke briefly about his plans moving forwards with this site and upgrading it - putting wood chip on the path and their plans with different areas of the woodland. I wish them well with the planned work and I hope we get to visit again soon before this gem of a place is hard to book up.

Daughters review - "I liked how spacious it was and the beds were comfy, can we go back?"

Disliked Having to leave.
