The crunch of gravel beneath your boots mingles with the distant bleating of sheep as you arrive at this working farm, where the rich scent of Devon earth and cut grass drifts across open fields. Morning light spills golden across gently rolling pastures, while evenings bring star-studded skies largely untouched by light pollution.

This is proper countryside camping for families and couples seeking an authentic rural escape in the heart of Devon. The farm welcomes tents, campervans, and caravans, making it accessible for various camping styles. You're deep in classic South West countryside here, where traditional farming still shapes the landscape and agricultural rhythms set the pace.

Facilities are refreshingly straightforward — clean toilets and hot showers provide the essentials without unnecessary frills. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so enquire with your hosts about bringing marshmallows and camp kettles. It's the kind of place where children can roam safely, adults can properly switch off, and everyone falls asleep to the soothing soundtrack of the Devon countryside. Simple, genuine, grounding.
