The soft rustle of canvas and the distant call of Devon birdsong drift across this unpretentious campsite, where mornings arrive gently and the pace slows to match the unhurried rhythms of the South West countryside. Wild About Campers offers that increasingly rare commodity: straightforward camping without the bells and whistles, just you and your pitch beneath wide Devon skies.

This is a site for those who find their contentment in simplicity—families seeking space to breathe, couples wanting to disconnect, solo campers craving quiet contemplation. Whether you're touring through Devon's patchwork lanes in a campervan, towing your caravan to explore the region's twin coastlines, or pitching a tent for a proper back-to-basics break, there's room here to settle in. The South West's wealth of beaches, moorland, and market towns lies within reach for daily adventures.

Essential facilities keep things comfortable with toilets and showers on site. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so there may be evenings spent around flickering flames depending on conditions. The overall atmosphere leans refreshingly low-key—no frills, no fuss, just honest camping in Devon's gentle embrace.

Traverses Devon coast-to-coast from the English Channel to the Bristol Channel, crossing varied terrain including steep climbs over Dartmoor's exposed moorland and gentler sections through rural farmland and river valleys. Not suitable for buggies or young children due to length, elevation changes, and remote moorland crossings. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near livestock. Offers dramatic coastal views, wild moorland scenery, and a genuine sense of wilderness achievement across Devon's most sp
