  • Quiet site with lots of space on a working farm: campfires allowed
  • On the edge of Exmoor National Park 10 minutes' drive from the beach
  • Visit the farm animals and gather freshly laid eggs for breakfast
Venture towards Devon's north coast for splendid stays on a working farm, on the edge of Exmoor National Park and 10 minutes' drive from the nearest beach at Combe Martin. Westland Farm is a small working farm in north Devon, half a mile from Blackmoor Gate and well placed for days roaming around the moor or adventuring and surfing around the coast: Ilfracombe and Woolacombe are 20 and 25 minutes' drive away. The farm's mission is to offer back-to-basics stays with plenty of space, where guests can sit by a campfire outside their tent, beer in hand, to watch the night sky. For junior guests, there's loads of green space to run around in, as well as farm animals to meet and say hi to: guests are also welcome to gather the farm hens' freshly laid eggs for breakfast. Although this is old-school camping, Westland Farm doesn't skimp on the amenities: a luxurious heated toilet and shower block is to hand for guests, and there are electric points to charge phones in the laundry room. The farm is half a mile from its local pub, which serves food all day.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We had a wonderful stay at this working farm campsite and couldn't recommend it highly enough. One of the absolute highlights was being able to feed and interact with the animals each day – it was such a special experience and something both of us will remember for a long time. Who would have thought chickens love tangerines!!

The campsite itself was beautifully maintained, with lovely facilities that were clean, modern, and clearly well cared for. Everything we needed was available, making our stay comfortable and relaxing from start to finish.

The combination of a peaceful countryside setting, friendly farm atmosphere, and excellent facilities made this a truly memorable camping trip. We left with great memories and are already looking forward to booking again! Mara and Karl

Drovers shepherd's hut (hot tub)

Liked A brilliant farm stay. The kids loved learning about how a real farm works.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It was lovely to have you stay at lambing time. I'm glad you and the children enjoyed seeing the lambs being born and helping to bottle feed lambs.

Thank you for pointing out that it is not clear the accomodation is off grid, although we do have flushing loos and hot showers. I will review our listing and make sure it is clear.

Great NYE escape!

Local attractions

Weeks' worth of adventures and attractions start in two directions from the farm: Blackmore Gate and the entrance to Exmoor National Park are under a mile to the north west, and spectacular north Devon beaches, surfing and other watersports are accessible from Combe Martin and beyond, 10 minutes' drive away. The kids will probably clamour for the beach first, so take them to the three splendid Victorian seaside towns close by: Combe Martin, Ilfracombe and Woolacombe (possibly have a separate day for each as there's loads to see and do). At Combe Martin, the dino express, animatronic dinosaurs, meerkats and animal experiences of Combe Martin Wildlife & Dinosaur Park should prove a monster hit; Ilfracombe is particularly famed for its Tunnels beaches and its harbour, and Woolacombe is the most famed north Devon spot for surfing. And then to Exmoor… access it within walking distance to stride off over the moor, or drive in to reach the closest information centre, Lynmouth (15 minutes), and gather armfuls on info on Exmoor's hiking, horse riding, events, wildlife and towns and villages. In the other direction from the park, it's a mile's walk to the boating, birdwatching, trout fishing and nature spotting of Wistlandpound reservoir, and 15 minutes' drive to a day's shopping and sightseeing at Barnstaple. The team also recommends Arlington Court and the National Trust Carriage Museum (10 minutes), and, further afield at 45 minutes, the famed RHS gardens at Rosemoor.
