Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: A lovely site with amazing view over the farmland and a bit of the moors. We could see free roaming ponies and sheep on the hills. Very friendly owner too who went out of her way to send us screen shots of OS map which allowed us to do a fabulous 5 hour walk from the site. You can also stay as late as you want as there are not check in or out times! Facilities are simple (ie composting toilet and washbasin only) but extremely clean.
Disliked: Just a note. We had a great pitch but I could see that some of the land is sloping.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hey, it was great to catch up with you both and hear of your travels. I'm so pleased that you managed to make use of the map screen shots and enjoy a walk :)
Perfect escape for 'nearly wild' camping.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: Hilltop location, stunning views, quiet and peaceful, lots of space, no set pitches, dog friendly, amazing night sky (campsite in the middle of the Dark Sky Reserve,) access to fantastic walks in every direction, lovely owner who came over for a chat, new and clean composting toilet, access to water and purification tabs, thorough and easy welcome info and directions, and no restrictions on the time you can arrive and leave!
Disliked: Most of the site is on a gentle slope but there are still lots of suitable areas to pitch. Not a dislike but more just a consideration!

Liked: My friend wanted to go stargazing, we found Heart of Exmoor through PitchUp.com and booked. Serena sent us a detailed email with directions and guidance. Arrived and set up tent really well, road is a little bumpy into the site be careful! We were welcomed by Serena and talked through the facilities available. Had a lovely night camping, stargazing and relaxing in the tranquil environment. Will definitely come again.

From the manager: It was great to meet all of you all, I am so pleased that you were able to enjoy a night under the stars. Maybe see you again!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Quiet location. Friendly owner. Arrive and depart any time. No charge for dogs
Disliked: Design of the compost toilet. Used them before but this one you have to sit far forward to urinate in a small hole meaning more than just your bum cheeks have contact with the toilet which I personally found disconcerting.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hey, It was lovely to meet you and your dogs! We've had lots of really positive comments about the compost toilet so I'm sorry you disliked it, thank you for your comment. Serena
nice friendly owner plenty of space…
