We were meeting family in Torquay so needed a campsite near, we happened to come upon it when searching, and so glad that we did. We were greeted by the owner, a lovely young man, he showed us where we were to pitch our tent, then showed us the facilities. The bathroom was very quirky, a free-standing bath with a shower then also a long sink. There was hand soap and plenty of loo roll. There was an outdoor kitchen which the owner had made, it had a microwave, toaster and a little cooker. It also had a fridge freezer and a dining table. We purchased some fresh eggs and had them for breakfast. There were 3 tipis on site also, which we were allowed to see. There are Alpacas, Peacocks, Chickens, Cockerels, and 2 beautiful dogs. We will definitely be coming back to this amazing place, which is only 20 minutes from Torquay. Thank you for a fabulous weekend xxx

Brilliant site, so close to Totnes. There's a great pub (Tally Ho) under 10 minutes walk. Great views. The facilities are basic but very clean and easy to use - the shower was great. The Alpacas stole our hearts and it was a pleasurable experience all round. No negatives whatsoever.

Thank you for your kind review. Just so you're aware next time, as I think you missed it, there is a lovely, luxury shower and toilet room available after 9.30am once the tipi tents have finished. This was all in the welcome pack and email I sent you and as the tipis were not used on your stay- you had full use at any time. You were using the extra camping shower.
Great stay
