Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2022

This is a simple farm site with the basics - all you need for countryside comfort. The toilet trailer is clean and efficient, the showers and washing up facilities more than adequate for this small site. There is lots of room for youngsters to play ball games or on their bicycles and sheep and goats to admire. It is situated just up the road from the National Trust properties of Hardy's Cottage and Thornecombe Wood - easy walking distance.

Nice tent with comfortable beds at a friendly farm

Bell Tent - Bell TentsJul 2022

We enjoyed our stay here very much, with our two daughters aged 10 and 12. We stayed in a glamping tent which was equipped with four beds and a fridge and a little storage space. Next to the tent was a picnic table, that was sheltered. There was a cooking stove with two burners, as well as a fire pit with complimentary wood. The camping is on a small farm and our pitch was right next to a field with horses, sheep and goats, who loved to come and be petted in return for fresh handpicked grass. Next to the farm is a large forest which I used for 10K runs. The owners of the farm are very friendly and made sure the facilities were kept clean. In particular I would like to mention the showers, which were better than normal in my experience. All in all a great stay, we would be happy to return.
