About Harford Bunkhouse and Camping
Enjoy a relaxing and authentic stay in the glorious Devon countryside, where you can discover something new every day in the surrounding Dartmoor National Park, or just relax and take it easy away from all the hustle and bustle. There are 40 non electric grass pitches for tents and trailer tents measuring up to 8m x 4m and are set on a sloping hill. For glamping, there are two pods, one has a double bed and a set of bunk beds, and the other has two double beds and a bunk bed. The cabin sleeps up to four with a double bed and a bunk bed.

A maximum of two dogs are welcome per booking but they must be kept on a lead at all times.

Pros and cons

We stayed for three nights in the 'Glamping' Cabin. When we arrived, it wasn't ready for us, but we were early. The lady stopped what she was doing and went down to get it ready for us, which was very kind of her. The location is very quiet and you can't hear a thing during the night. It's close to the A38 as well. The showers were well pressurised and nice and hot. The toilets were always clean. The fridge in the wash up area was clean. Unfortunately, there were several negatives for us during our stay. Very little privacy in the shower block. Just plastic sheeting covering the entrance & a couple of shower curtains to stop people wandering down. No changing room there, just a bench on the outside. No power in the cabin. There is a light, but no electric for guests. No access to a kitchen. No hand soap in the gents. There is a lack of rubbish bins on site. One in the cabin might be useful, or at least one in the washing up area. We could only find one in the toilet blocks. The light in the washing up area is minimal & will only come on at night or when it's dark as it's on a sensor. Lack of washing up facilities in the washing up area. Whilst there was water, there was no soap or cloth to wash with. There is a lack of decent signage to try to find the site.
