Cannamore Camping Reviews

Set on the edge of Dartmoor, Cannamore Camping offers almost wild camping on grass pitches over two fields. You'll enjoy access to the beautiful South Devon coast, a 25 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 unfurnished bell tents and a glamping shepherd's hut are available too.

VW-Type Campervan - Grass Touring Pitches (Optional Electric)Aug 2023

A really gorgeous campsite with very helpful owners Matt and Roy (and Claire who welcomed us when we arrived slightly early). It was great having our own loo! Very good showers. Beautiful views and we thoroughly enjoyed camping right next to the wildflower meadow. Would definitely return. About 20 mins walk on to Dartmoor. Another time we may bring our car too and just park it so we can explore further afield easily as we had our campervan this time. Will definitely return and have already recommended it to friends.

Many thanks for your kind review! We have 10 loos on site and do try to allocate one to pitch to one loo where possible. It is just nicer that way! There are some really nice footpaths and lanes around the edge of the moor to explore on foot or by bike. All around South Brent, Owley and Aish. Quite hilly though being Dartmoor! Many thanks from all at Cannamore Camping.

Awesome little campsite

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2023

The campsite is good, with a beautiful view. It is on a hill but the pitches are quite level. Toilets and showers were clean. Not many other facilities available but it is a minimalistic campsite. We really enjoyed our stay.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2023

Campsite owner (Ron) very polite and welcoming. Toilets and showers kept to a lovely standard and seemed to be cleaned daily. Completely accessible water and bins and the campsite is located next to a field with cows (if you think cows are cute) so major bonus. Had a very enjoyable stay!!

Site's response

Thanks for your kind review, I'll pass that on to Roy (Ron)! We can't guarantee cows as they can be quite seasonal but there are often some to look at. Many thanks!

Lovely visit, will come again

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJul 2023

Stayed for 2 nights, we turned up, found a pitch and set ourselves up. It was wonderfully quiet and very peaceful. Highly recommend. The shower and bathroom were clean and the water was warm and lovely.

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJul 2023

A very special and beautiful spot right on the edge of the moor with pitches spread out effectively for lots of privacy, and views of rolling countryside. There are lots of clean toilets and showers. The owners were very friendly. Lovely local pub just down the road.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2023

What a fab site, felt like we were wild camping but with the comfort of a shower and a loo! Spotlessly clean showers and toilets. Lovely warm welcome from Roy, who clearly loves what he does, keep up the great work. Fantastic views across Devon rolling hills. We met Anita on our way out after packing up our tent, she was preparing the Shepherds Hut for the next guest and was equally enthusiastic and offered to show me the Shepherds Hut, a great alternative in the cooler months, very quaint and cosy. The only negative - we were unable to get hot water for pot washing, but this did not spoil our stay at this wonderful site.

Site's response

Thank you for your kind review! I will pass on your feedback about the hot water, it's a challenge on an off-grid site and we'd like to find an eco-friendly solution! Glad you had a good time otherwise! Many thanks.
