About Barhams Woodland Camping
Get back to nature and be awoken by restful birdsong. This peaceful, almost-wild campsite covers almost 16 acres of Devonshire woodland, within easy reach of the magnificent Dartmoor National Park. All the pitches are tucked away in their own part of the woodland on the forest floor, each with a complimentary fire pit for toasting marshmallows or cosying around the campfire. There are a total of 13 pitches suitable for tents, five 6m x 6m (four person), and eight 6m x 8m (six person) that also allow for multiple tents. If you are coming with your campervan, you are also catered for with three 4.5m x 7.5m pitches, suitable for up to four people. Each has access to facilities including flushing toilets and warm showers. With a laid back vibe, this is the ideal place to kick back, unwind and soak up the fresh air whilst spotting the visiting wildlife. For cooking up a delicious dinner, be sure to bring along your BBQ, just please ensure it is raised from the ground. Due to the woodland, there is no vehicle access to tent pitches, but each pitch does have it's own allocated space in the car park, only one vehicle is allowed per pitch. Dogs can join you for your stay too, with up to two allowed per pitch. There is no electricity on site.
Barhams Woodland Camping is open from 25/05 to 05/06 and 14/06 to 22/09.
The site has three flushing loos, two showers, a pot wash station, and a drinking water point. All pitches also come with their own designated firepit area and fire pit ready for use.
For a pub, The Union Inn is a five minute drive or a 20 minute walk away. If you need to pick up the essentials, there is a Co-op and One Stop ten minutes away.

Nice campsite, most pitches are isolated from others. Facilities were nice and clean, however, their pump broke down for the showers and washing up station. They did notify us straight away and ensured there was water for drinking and washing up. Overall, would recommend and stay here again.
Gorgeous campsite

What a lovely campsite! So peaceful and has everything you need! The little details in the facilities really make this campsite stand out, without a doubt the best off grid campsite we have stayed at! Will definitely be returning to stay here again! Just beware of the very narrow lanes to get there!
Beautiful place
