About the site
This award winning tent-only site is set in the beautiful Wray Valley within the Dartmoor National Park, midway between the picturesque village of Lustleigh and Moretonhampstead. There is direct access to the Wray Valley Trail via a small footbridge over the site's own stretch of the Wray Brook. The Hay Meadow camping field slopes down from the car park to the river. Camping in the Hay Meadow is on terraced pitches separated from each other by wide biodiversity corridors. Camping on the nearly wild pitches is on a flat area in the woodland with the river nearby. The Stables Eco-Bothies are perfect for couples, friends and small families who want somewhere dry and warm with a triple bunk bed (double and single), and open space for one more. It sleeps up to four and is equipped with insulated wood fibre that retains heat, a log burner, a dining area, and an n eco-conscious 12V solar-powered battery system. Outside enjoy your own undercover kitchen area for an alfresco experience. Please bring your own bedding and camping stove. The site is also situated on the Dartmoor Way cycle route and is a frequent stop for those attempting Lands End to John O'Groats by bike. Wonderfully located in the middle of Devon, you can enjoy access to the A38 and the A30, great for exploring the whole county and wider south west. Campfires and BBQs are encouraged and wood-fired pizza evenings are run on dry days in the summer. Due to the sloping nature of the site, motorised vehicles on the pitches are not allowed. Dogs are permitted but must be kept under control at all times so as not to disturb the wildlife, the chickens, and other campers. Sustainability is at the core of the business, being a previous winner of the Green Tourism Gold Award, Devon Tourism Ethical, Responsible and Sustainable Business of the Year and Devon Women in Business Eco-Friendly Business of the Year.
Open all year round for members of the Nearly Wild Camping Club and organisations with their own camping exemption certificates, e.g. Scouts. The Hay Meadow is open between April and October.
