Butterfly Meadow

The gentle rustle of long grass and the hum of bees drifting across wildflower patches set the scene at Butterfly Meadow, where sunlight filters through hedgerows onto a quintessentially Devon meadow. This is a site for those seeking simplicity and space, with room for tents, campervans, and caravans to settle into the south-west countryside without the trappings of heavily manicured pitches or resort-style facilities.

Devon's rolling landscape provides the perfect backdrop here, with the region's famous coastline, moorland walks, and market towns all within reach. It's a base for explorers who want to return to somewhere peaceful rather than bustling, where the evening chorus comes from crickets rather than entertainment programmes.

Facilities are straightforward—clean toilets and showers serve campers who appreciate the essentials done well. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so it's worth asking when you get there if you're hoping for an evening around the flames. The overall feel is unhurried and natural, a meadow that lives up to its name with butterflies weaving between the guy ropes on summer afternoons.
