Bowhayes Farm Camping and Glamping Reviews

Beautiful spot amongst the trees

Lovely spot nestled in the hills, in a cider orchard. Howard and Fiona are very friendly and helpful. Lots of space. You can walk to the pub in 15-20 mins. Very peaceful spot. Recommended!

Little heaven

Camping in an apple farm which was rich and there was a variety of fruit and trees. Lots of space between the pitches. There were toilets, showers, drinking water and even a little kitchen for the guests. The host is super nice and he has adorable dogs (he allowed us to take them for a small walk around his land ). Plus a friendly and fluffy cat that I fell in love with. We had amazing time! Highly recommended.

Hi Petya, It was an absolute pleasure meeting you both. So good to hear you enjoyed our little farm, you're most welcome to walk the dogs anytime! Simba (the fluffy cay) says 'hi'! Hope to see you back here again sometime. Howard

Escape to nature

We came to Sidmouth and stayed 3 days at Bowhayes Farm. We loved it, in spite of the inclement weather. Our plot was very green and clean and right amongst the trees, with nothing but birds and birdsong around us. Highly recommended and would definitely visit again :-)

Thank you so much for your kind review. I'm so glad the weather didn't dampen your experience of the Jazz Festival. It was lovely meeting you both - I hope we see you again next year, or perhaps for the Sidmouth Folk Festival!

We had a lovely stay

Beautiful and peaceful pitch in the orchard. We had a very friendly welcome and they were keen to share local knowledge which we appreciated. We were only there for one night so didn't really make much use of facilities but it seemed to have the basics that one would need. What a beautiful part of the country and how lovely to spend the evening among the apple trees!

It was lovely meeting you and to hear you had a nice stay Rachel. Hopefully we'll see you again - for a bit longer!

Well worth the stay!

We arrived from London at around 3PM and after a long drive we were dreading carrying our gear up to the pitch. Howard was very kind in offering to help tractor our stuff up for us. The orchard is beautiful with stunning views. The facilities were pristine. The night-time was very quiet and calm. Huge thanks to Howard and his family for making our stay memorable.

Thanks so much for your kind review David, very much appreciated. It was our pleasure to host you both - come and stay longer next time! I hope the drive back to London wasn't too onerous! Hope to see you both back here soon! Howard
