Non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked: Relaxed feel, lovely views, plenty of clean, non smelly compost wcs, showers and washing up areas. Level grass pitches. I was the only camper the night I stayed. You can walk to the river and water meadow through the farm. I didn’t use any of the facilities in the barn but they looked comprehensive. Carol and Steve helpful and friendly

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: What a great site. We were greated by the owner Carol to show us our pitch options. The compost toilet was and showers were clean and lots of hot water. There was a sink area for washing up and a barn with charging point lockers and microwave, fridges. Also logs to purchase for onsite fire pits. My twins loved the ice creams we could buy. The urn of hot water was handy in the bad weather to get a hot drink quickly. There was lots of land to walk around and explore nature. The owners were easily contactable with any questions or concerns and lots of info left out about what's local to visit which was great. The twins loved seeing the baby shallows in the barn.
Disliked: Only that we made the decision to leave early due to the high winds but you can't predict the weather. We were offered a warm dry space if needed due to the bad weather which was so nice of the owners.

Non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked: Fantastic facilities for an eco camp: good warm showers, compost loos + Campfire pits and picnic benches. Beautiful views over the valley and plenty of open space for the children to play. 24 hour Access to kitchen area with hot water, freezer, fridge and toaster. Free locker charging station available 24/7 Small shop for camp essentials. Carol on hand for any help needed
Disliked: A little rural and out the way, which could be seen as a benefit!

Liked: We were the only people on the campsite which was lovely. Carol was extremely friendly and helpful, explaining where everything was and offering advice on places to visit nearby. The facilities were very clean, eco-friendly and well-designed. We would really recommend the 20-30 minute well-signed walk along the bank of the River Torridge which runs at the boundary of the farm. We bought a dozen fresh eggs at a very reasonable price and were very well looked after. Thank you Carol and Steve!

Non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked: 12/10. Would recomend. Down a small country lane there's your own little hillside paridice. There's the stunning evening view over the small valley, no noisy neighbours (if you don't mind the sheep), the cleanest and best looked after amenities (showers untested but looked awesome), a communal fridge and kettle for those desperate moments, a handful of levelled (and adorably named) pitches, local produce (I can vouch for the sausages). While I didn't have time to explore the area I have it on good authority it's interesting and well looked after. Carol and Co have done a wonderful job. This will be my go to campsite for the area.
Disliked: Should have stayed longer

Non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch
Liked: peaceful apart from the wind-rustled trees and distant sheep :o) with level ground for the tent and a wood burner if needed, with a good sized bag of logs plus kindling and fire-lighters for about a tenner from reception, as well as a range of things that may get left at home, lockable phone-charging boxes and all the info you need. The walk down to the tree-banked river on freshly mown paths through wild meadows is very relaxing, and the one large area at the river's edge is perfect for a picnic. The toilets and shower and sinks are all eco-style and very well looked after, well the whole site is! A lovely place, cheers!
