The smell of breakfast drifting from the farmhouse on a misty Devon morning — that's how the day starts at Wessington Farm, tucked into the quiet hills around Honiton.

This is a proper working farm offering both traditional B&B rooms in the guest house and a camping pod for those who want their own space under the stars. It suits couples after a rural retreat, walkers tackling the East Devon Way, or anyone using Honiton as a base for exploring the Jurassic Coast and Blackdown Hills. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth checking ahead if you're bringing your four-legged companion along.

The setup is straightforward and year-round — guest house comfort if you want it, pod life if you prefer a bit more independence. Campfires are a maybe, so ask when you arrive. It's the sort of place where you wake to birdsong, farm sounds, and not much else — peaceful, unpretentious, genuinely rural.

Cullompton Honiton Walk

Connects two historic Devon market towns across rolling countryside with moderate climbs through farmland and quiet lanes. Expect varied terrain including field paths, bridleways and some road sections – generally suitable for older children but uneven ground and stiles make buggies impractical. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth it for the rural Devon scenery, traditional villages en route, and the chance to explore both Cullompton's wool town heritage and Honiton's famous lace-making

Broadhembury Circular Walk

Loops through classic Devon countryside around this pretty thatched village, mixing quiet lanes with field paths and woodland sections. Expect gentle to moderate inclines over rolling farmland – doable for older children but likely too uneven for buggies. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. The reward is timeless rural scenery, historic St Andrew's Church, and usually a pint-worthy finish at the Drewe Arms.

Exeter to Honiton Way

Follows a varied 16-mile trail from Exeter to Honiton through the East Devon countryside, with moderate to steep climbs over rolling hills and farmland. Not suitable for buggies due to stiles, uneven ground and significant elevation changes, though manageable for older children with stamina. Dogs welcome but expect livestock fields requiring leads. Rewards walkers with excellent views across the Exe Valley and quiet stretches through ancient woodland and traditional Devon villages.
