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 with access to eco facilities in the heart of woodland. 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 24/05 to 05/06 and 13/06 to 26/10.

A note from the site themselves...

We are delighted to be able to share Barhams Woodland with you. The 16-acre site is tucked away off the A38 but feels like you could be a world away from the hustle and bustle. There is a warmness to the woodland which almost feels like a big hug and as the landscape of the site is so unique.

We in turn have created 13 unique tent pitches and three campervan pitches that are nested away to give every guest a feeling of peace. We hope to greet you soon, Annie

Small Tent - Non Electric Forest Floor Tent Pitches (Four Person)Oct 2023

The most beautiful little hidden gem in beautiful rolling hills. Each pitch is nice and private and nestled away, making it feel as close to wild camping as possible. Fire pits were an absolute winner too and the location is prime for everything you need including shops, entertainment and activities and pubs and restaurants. The owners are absolutely delightful and the booking process and communication from them was outstanding. I highly, highly recommend Barhams Woodland Camping! We will be back without a doubt!

Lovely people, lovely little site, very clean. The location was great, the owner has ideas for expanding, we gave ideas for groups such as scouts and letter boxing type of games for the kids. As it is, we just can't recommend enough. Thoroughly lovely, will definitely go again and again.
