Beautiful scenery. Out in the middle of nowhere.

Not disliked, but narrow road down to camping site.

It was just a beautiful wild camp destination that is well worth a visit.

Awkward to find but I guess that's a bit part of the adventure. Maybe a little sign on the gate may help a little though

Beautifully unspoilt shaded spot with its own swimming pit and under an iconic viaduct.

The location is fantastic for access to Dartmoor, Meldon reservoir and the viaduct. Meldin lake is beautiful and good it's only available for access by campers.
We had a campervan, pitches generous and our friends a motorhome and we shared a fire pit between the two vans. Plenty of firewood too.
Campsite owner Phil and family all very friendly and would stop for a chat communication all round excellent especially the instructions on how to get to the campsite.
Great for dog-walking, fishing, wild swimming, paddleboarding and sitting around the campfire.

Beautiful site, can walk directly from the site, will definitely come back.
Great to swim in the quarry.
Loved the firewood.
Great to drive on site and be next to our car.
Very quiet site.
Very close to other walking places.

A toilet would be great, but not essential.

The peace and quiet as well as being able to pick our own spot around the lake. Existing fire pits made it a lot easier however this is not for the light hearted as no running water or toilets so take a shovel!

That previous campers hadn't taken all their rubbish

We've got a 3yr old and a 6yr old. We all loved Meldon Lake and Woods. The children especially liked paddling in the stream and collecting some wood for a fire. We did a little evening walk up to the top of the dam. It was lovely to be able to have a camp fire, toast some mashmallows and listen to the owls at night. The site was quiet with only a handful of other like minded campers. All in all a perfect getaway! We didn't find the lake an issue for the children

The lane down from the farmhouse to the campsite was a little tight for our van (Citroen relay) but we managed it, and it was worth the effort.

Perfect camp site by a lake with good walking trails.

Lots of animals shit but it’s a farm so to be expected.

It was an absolute gem of a place with beautiful surroundings and the lake to swim in. We couldn’t of asked for more.

It’s wild camping so no toilets unless you walk 10 minutes to local car park at the quarry! Obviously expected.

Quiet, wild and great views. Beautiful place to wake up and explore from.

Tip more than a dislike: Take something to protect your tent. We had some picnic blankets which we put down as the ground can be rocky in places. This will help protect your ground sheet.
