Bowhayes Farm Camping

喜欢 Very quiet - couldn't see any other campers or any artificial light from where I was pitched!

来自经理: Hi Ned,

Really appreciate your review — glad you enjoyed the peace and quiet, and that you found a properly dark spot to pitch up! Not seeing other campers (or much artificial light) is exactly what we aim for.

It was great to meet you both on your cycling trip — Bowhayes tends to work well as a simple, quiet stopover for bikepackers, so it’s good to hear it suited you.

You’d be very welcome back any time you’re passing through and in need of a relaxed night in the orchard.

喜欢 I was warmly received by Howard and shown the facilities. He was happy for me to choose my pitch between the apple trees and offered to clear the apples away for me. Wheel barrows were available to borrow to move my camping equipment, but I chose not to use them. The shower was great, I had to hang my head torch on a hook to provide illumination because I showered at night. Howard was interested to know the reason for my visit and learned that I would be returning to the site in the early hours, so he left some lights on at the coffee bar. He also recommended a local pub for my Sunday lunch ,but I was unable to go. The farm cat would visit me when he wasn't too busy hunting.

Lovely to read your review, apologies for my delayed response..! Thanks for sharing the photos - they're great. I’m glad you enjoyed the freedom to choose your pitch in the orchard and that everything worked well for your stay, even with a late return.

Good improvisation with the head torch in the shower — not a bad solution! And I’m pleased the coffee deck lights helped when you got back in.

Thanks as well for your kind note about the Potter Round The Otter event — that’s much appreciated. It was a pleasure having you here, and you’d be very welcome back any time.

喜欢 Really beautiful setting in apple orchard. Howard and Fiona were so friendly and helpful. They recommended local pubs, walks and beaches which we loved. The site had great facilities including hot shower, clean toilets and kitchen.

Lovely to read your review... sorry my reply is so delayed..! Glad you enjoyed the orchard setting and made the most of the local pubs, walks and beaches. It’s always nice when people get out and explore a bit of East Devon while they’re here.

Great to hear the facilities all worked well for you too. It was a pleasure having you stay, and you’d be very welcome back any time.

喜欢 Everything! Beautiful setting among the Orchard, bed was super comfy! Bathroom was the most luxurious camping bathroom we've ever used and the kitchen area had everything you needed including milk alternative, oil for cooking and salt and pepper. The owner Howard was really welcoming and helpful (also sells delicious local ciders!) And we were greeted immediately by their lush ginger cat Simba who was so friendly and such a character! It's a great base to explore the local area - lots of suggestions for food, wildlife etc. Provided by owners) - just half hour or so to Lyme Regis and around 10 minutes to Sidmouth. Recommended 100%, we'd love to stay again!

不喜欢 Nothing! Well maybe the hill up to the tent but that's because I'm unfit and nothing to do with the site 😂 they provide a wheel barrow which was helpful to take our stuff up to the site too!

来自经理: Hi Emma,

Lovely to read your review — and thanks for sharing such great photos too. We’re really pleased you enjoyed your stay in the Michelin bell tent and that the comfort, facilities, and little touches all made a difference. Simba will be especially pleased with his mention!

It’s great to hear you made the most of the location as well. Being tucked away in the orchard within the East Devon National Landscape does give that balance of peace and nature, while still being close to places like Sidmouth, the Jurassic Coast, and plenty to explore locally.

Good effort on the hill too — it keeps things nicely tucked away and quiet, but we’re glad the wheelbarrow helped!

It was a pleasure having you both, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back — perhaps to catch Sidmouth’s Jazz or Folk Festival, or another season in the orchard.

喜欢 Very well thought out, incredibly friendly people, beautiful surroundings, facilities are great.

Great to read your review (sorry my reply is late..!) and thanks for sharing the photos, looks like you made the most of your time here!

We’re really pleased you enjoyed the quiet setting and that the space and pace of the site suited you. It’s always good to hear when guests get out and explore too — fossil hunting is a great shout.

It was a pleasure having you and your group to stay, and you’d be very welcome back any time for another couple of peaceful nights in the orchard.

喜欢 Amazing set up, very polite hosts, great at informing me of the local spots to eat etc. extremely peaceful orchard with well set up amenities.

来自经理: Hey Hannah!

It was our pleasure having you to stay. We’re so glad you enjoyed the set-up and found the orchard peaceful, and it’s great to know the local food tips came in handy too!

The orchard changes a lot through the seasons — spring blossom and autumn apples make it feel like a different place altogether — so you’d be very welcome back any time!

Thanks,

Howard

喜欢 Clear instructions pre-arrival, a warm welcome from the hosts, a beautiful & secluded pitch, our bell tent was perfectly clean and well furnished. The bed was v cosy & comfortable. The nearby camp kitchen was really handy, toilets & showers were clean. A firepit rounded off the whole experience. Location is great, lots of things to see & do nearby. We hope to be back!

来自经理: Hi Stuart,

Really appreciate your review — great to hear you found everything just right, from the welcome and set-up through to the comfort of the bell tent (a good night’s sleep is key!).

We’re glad you enjoyed the balance of being tucked away in a peaceful spot, while still having plenty to see and do nearby — whether that’s the Jurassic Coast, Sidmouth, or further afield towards Exeter.

It was a pleasure having you both, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back for another relaxing stay in the orchard.

喜欢 You camp in-between the orchard trees, it's very beautiful. Shower was amazing, it was wild with the luxury of hot water. Plum and pear trees dotted around. We saw some deers and heard owls, a peaceful break from everyday life. So much to do in the surrounding area. We would love to come back. Thankyou!

不喜欢 We pitched up on a bit of a slope, not thinking it was as much of a slope initially . We noticed this a lot at night time. However I accept this was 100% our fault.

来自经理: Thanks so much, Jordan — we’re really pleased you enjoyed camping among the orchard trees and that the wildlife, peace, and hot shower all helped make it a proper break.

Good spot on the slope — there are some flatter pitches tucked in between the trees, so if you come back just give us a shout when you arrive and we’ll help you find the best spot.

We’d love to welcome you back whenever you’re ready for another orchard escape.

Regards,

Howard
