About the site
If you are searching for a restful getaway within easy reach of Exmoor and the coast, this small riverside site could be the ideal choice. Nestled on a farm in the North Devon countryside, guests can enjoy watching the grazing sheep, paddling in the river or spotting the visiting wildlife at the onsite pond. Tent and trailer tent campers are welcome across the 12 grass 6m x 6m pitches, whilst campervans have two 5.5m x 5.5m grass and gravel pitches. All of the pitches are non electric and allow up to eight guests. If glamping is more your style, the site also has two charming shepherd's huts. Willow sleeps up to two guests, and inside, you will find a king-size bed, TV, seating, a kitchen, fridge, and heating. Outside, there is a private back garden with outdoor furniture on a lovely raised decking area to relax, a fire pit, and a BBQ grill for al fresco cooking. Meanwhile, Olive can sleep up to three guests. Inside, you will find a double bed and one 6ft pull-out single bed, seating, a kitchen, fridge, and heating. Outside, there is a garden area with outdoor furniture and a BBQ grill for al fresco cooking. BBQs are also welcome onsite, with fire pits for hire and firewood available to buy. Spend evenings toasting marshmallows and looking up at the Milky Way on a clear night. Four-legged friends are also welcome, but the site ask if they can be on leads when there are sheep in the field next to the campsite, up to two allowed per pitch. Please note, the pitches by the river and the shepherd's huts are dog free.

We had a fantastic stay. Friendly cleaners and owner himself. We loved the dry tent and played dominoes, the slide and the space to run around our pitch playing tag.
Great camping
