What customers say

This peaceful, private woodland site has well-spaced pitches & fire pits. Clean, thoughtfully designed facilities match the eco ethos. Friendly owners create a welcoming atmosphere. Despite challenging rural roads, the serene, nature-filled setting is worth the drive for a comfy "wild" camping feel.

Liked Lovely wild camping feel. The kids (4 and 6) had a great time. The campsite was easily accessible with our wagon. Very clean toilets. The kids loved the fire pit. I would definitely go again.

Hayes M.

Primitive forest floor tent campsite (four person)

Liked We enjoyed our stay, and found the campsite well organised, clean, tidy and very peaceful. Thank you!

Disliked It is not a criticism, as we appreciate the site is still relatively new, but I suggest that it would be an improvement to more clearly separate the washing up area from the washing (toothbrushing sink). I used the washing up sink for toothbrushing, as there didn't appear to be anything dedicated.

Matthew J.

Primitive cement/asphalt campervan campsite (maximum 6 metres)

Liked The plot set up gave everyone sufficient personal space and privacy, the toilets and wash facilities were well stocked and in good/clean condition. Lisa and John were super helpful and really kind to our 4 year old even giving her some fairy doors to paint for the trees.

Disliked Temperature of the showers was inconsistent and often ran from hot to cold but for an off grid system this is likely expected and wasn’t bad enough that it put me off.

Sian D.

Primitive cement/asphalt campervan campsite (maximum 6 metres)

Liked It's a really lovely campsite, the couple who run it are super friendly and helpful. The pitches are really spread out and quite private and the site itself is so quiet and peaceful. The facilities are basic but really well kept, they are clean and everything is well thought out. The showers are hot. It's a real woodland gem, we had a resident robin visit every morning and he even sat on our hand to eat our granola!

Disliked The lane leading to the campsite from the main road is so narrow, we were in a VW campervan and had to pull the mirrors in, unfortunately we scratched our van many times coming and going from the site.

Trudy B.

Primitive forest floor tent campsite (six person)

Liked The location and authenticity of camping in the woods. The site is kept in pristine condition with toilet, shower and washing up facilities. Host were very welcoming too.

Disliked The roads to get there are very scary and definitely would not recommend if you wouldn’t like like your car scratched up or if you don’t like driving in reverse.

Local attractions

Fancy a walk? There are plenty of options around here, including moorland hikes in Dartmoor National Park (10 minutes’ drive) and gentler strolls in the River Dart Country Park (15 minutes) – the latter also with a bike park and an adventure park. If that’s all too strenuous, a ride on the South Devon Railway (15 minutes) will show you some of the scenery instead. For coastal days out, head to local beaches like Teignmouth (25 minutes) and Ness Cove (half an hour) or visit popular seaside towns like Torquay (half an hour) and Brixham (35 minutes). Kid-friendly days out are plentiful too – as well as all the beaches, you might like to meet cute animals at Pennywell Farm (20 minutes) and their more exotic cousins at Paignton Zoo (25 minutes) or feel like a giant at Babbacombe Model Village (25 minutes).
