The Hen's Dens at Orchard Organic Farm Reviews

Great campsite

Great campsite just off the main road so no long drives down long winding lanes and all the local towns a short drive away.. Loved the six individual pitches at the end of the fruit trees. Three seperate shower/toilet combinations with an extra toilet. All spacious and clean with everything you needed. Fabulous washing up area with washing machine, microwave, kettle and toaster. Even had an undercover chill out area with sofas and bar football. Owner was very relaxed and freindly, always walking around and talking to guests. All in all a fantastic campsite that I would definitely recommend to others.

Brilliant small campsite in great location

This was a delight to stay at. We came here as part of a group some camping and the rest in the chicken sheds. We all loved it and will be back. The location meant you could walk to the beach and local pub but also easy to drive to Dartmoor and lots of other beaches. Highly recommended!

Hi Caroline Great to meet you guys and thanks for the review, glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again. Jerry The Hen's Dens at Orchard Organic Farm

Everyone was happy here...

The couples in the cabins were thrilled with their cosy facilities, and the diehard camping families loved their separate pitches alongside the Orchard. The comfy shelter was great when it rained, and we enjoyed the firepit area for a shared BBQ. We appreciated the ability to still be all together, and the proximity to the lovely Maidencombe Beach (with it's Cafe Rio) and the Coastal Path. The apple juice was scrumptious!

Lovely, quiet, generous site

Recently back and can't wait to go back. Lovely, quiet, scenic site. I said generous because it has great facilities. I didn't shower, but my sister said they were super hot and good power. Appreciated heated facilities and even soap and hand towel. Very near local coastal walk and other great places.

Happy campers

We had a really nice stay at the Hen's Den campsite. Close to the coast path and a bus stop for Torquay etc. Very friendly owners. Great pitch, with electric, at a reasonable price. Clean and plentiful amenities. No issues with this site.

Fabulous stay and immaculate facilities

We actually stayed 2 nights in our campervan with electrical hook up. As it was half term in February, we had the campsite to ourselves. The location was ideal for walks down to the coast and along the coastal path. The toilets, showers and kitchen area were immaculate with loads of hot water, and very warm heating system. As you would, expect it is a bit hilly whichever way you walk, but we were expecting this. The food at the local pub, The Thatched Tavern, was excellent, and about a 15 minute walk. If you don't want to drive, then literally at the top of the road is the bus stop, with buses every hour either to Shaldon or Torquay. The Shaldon bus was only £2, which no doubt is cheaper than paying for parking. Overall, a really lovely campsite, great location and we will be back.

VW Camper stay at Hen’s Den

A perfect spot for an over-night stay in a campervan. We explored Maiden coomb Beach in the morning which is only a 10/15 minute walk away

Great winter trip

A lovely location with a faultless setting. The Hen's Den had it all. Great showers, communal facilities and a very quiet location. Would recommend for anyone, whether solo or with a family.

October

A lovely small campsite, set in the real countryside, on a farm and orchard. Very accommodating and hospitable owners. Super clean facilities with added extras. I was especially fond of the soft shower mats and other charming details. Fabulous eggs & apples.

Great little site

A very nice and quiet site. Pitch was level and with electric hookup for tent. Toilets and showers were clean and had use of washing machine, microwave, toaster and kettle. Perfect as a base for a holiday.

Hi Paul, glad you enjoyed your stay and thanks for the review. Hope to see you again. Thanks, Jerry - The Hen's Dens at Orchard Organic Farm.

Amazing place

This is a great place to stay, the pod was plenty big enough for my family of 5. We really like that all the pods had their own individual bathrooms and small kitchens. Also that they were sectioned off and you had your own space with a picnic table. The kids loved the little chill out zone/games room.

Weekend break with 2 adults and 2 eleven year old kids

We had a very pleasant stay at the Hen’s Dens. The short walk to Maidencombe beach and the Thatched Tavern pub meant the location was perfect for adults and kids.

Thank you Tom and co. Lovely to meet you and thanks for the review. Hope to see you again. Thanks, Jerry - The Hen's Dens at Orchard Organic Farm.

Will visit again!

Beautiful views and area with really nice hosts. Whole farm looks great and all facilities are kept nice and tidy. The hen's dens which we stayed in are surrounded by trees and bushes which gives some privacy. I would definitely recommend that place for couples but also families as pods are quite roomy! We had an amazing time and definitely will come back :)
