Cannamore Camping offers almost wild camping on grass pitches over two fields. Dartmoor is easy to reach by car, bike or on foot and you'll enjoy access to the beautiful South Devon coast, a twenty minute car ride away. Choose your pitch in a wildflower meadow with wide-ranging views of the rolling South Hams countryside or pick a spot on the lower field, a more secluded alternative. Cosy bell tents and a glamping hut too.
Friendly camping and glamping site with easy access to Devon and Dartmoor
Spectacular views over the neighbouring countryside from your pitch
Just five minutes from Dartmoor National Park, great for keen walkers
About Cannamore Camping
Whether you're looking to surround yourself with nature or kick back and immerse yourself in the rolling Devon countryside, this almost wild camping and glamping site is an ideal base to set up camp! Facilities are modern and well specified with flushing loos and good hot showers giving that little bit of luxury where it counts. Tents, smaller campers, trailer tents and caravans are all welcome on the select range of unmarked grass pitches. You could spend all day looking at the view and listening to the birdsong or pick up one of the several nearby footpaths and explore the countryside across fields and down almost forgotten shady lanes and tracks. Alternatively, you can opt to stay in one of the spacious bell tents, sleeping either four or five - they are also ideal for couples looking for a private yet roomy glamping escape in the countryside. Interior is unfurnished so don't forget to bring your gear. Your bolthole for two might be the shepherd hut, furnished with a comfy bed, kitchen area and more. It has electric and is pet friendly. Nature is never far away with bumble bees, dragonflies and butterflies all attracted by the wildflower meadow. If you are very lucky you might even get an early morning or late night glimpse of a Roe Deer or two - although they are very shy so you'll need to be very quiet! Dogs are welcome onsite. The site is licensed by the Woodland Champions Club, helping landowners create and manage woodland for the public to enjoy.
Cannamore Camping is open all year round.
Facilities here include six toilets, each with its own external door, as well as two combined toilet and shower cabins. Guests in the Shepherd's hut enjoy complimentary cereal and cooked breakfast ingredients.
Dartmoor National Park is just a six minute drive from the site and it's ten miles to the coast.

Just a lovely campsite to stay at. If you want peace, quiet & fantastic scenery, this is the place to go. The facilities are fantastic and so clean. Never seen campsite facilities kept so clean. You have your own toilet with a key. The owners are also lovely people, nothing is too much trouble. Can't wait to go back.

As you enter the wooded tunnel entrance it felt like you were in a fairy tale. At the other end we were greeted with a big warm smile from Roy and the beautiful camping meadows he has created. Pitches were well placed and cut out in the long grass. Main facilities are in the top meadow and were clean, well maintained and the shower was lovely. There were also toilet facilities in the lower meadow. At Cannamore it’s all about peace, nature and appreciating the importance of the meadows and the wildlife they attract. Thank you Roy and team for this amazing place and for making us feel so welcome. It was great chatting with you about the area and finding out about your family’s farming history as well as your continuing good work regards the meadows and wildlife pond.
