VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Tent or Campervan PitchMay 2024
A lovely peaceful couple of days, only three camping pitches and each with their own private bathroom at the farm which was a bonus. A really spacious and private pitch from which we could watch an owl fly back and forth feeding the owlets in the tree next to our field. Pedro the peacock made regular visits to check we were OK. Chickens roosting high up in the nearby trees was a first for us. Nice friendly owners showed us around the facilities and happily advised on local walks.

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Tent or Campervan PitchSep 2023
Fantastic pitch, ideally located to see Exmoor and the Devon coast but feel worlds away on your secluded pitch.
Only 3 pitches make this an exclusive site. The en-suite facilities are a 3 minute walk and there's a magical walk around the farm.
We had our campervan and dog.

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchAug 2023
We loved our stay at Huxtable Farm.
Just 3 pitches spread out around the farm gives each plenty of privacy. Location was great for us, with plenty to do nearby. Each pitch has its own bathroom, which is clean and spacious, although a little walk from the pitches (being at the main farm buildings). There is a washing up room with fridge and freezer, toaster, kettle and microwave, which is very useful. There's a little games room and some home-made produce, which is delicious.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will return 😊
