The Hen's Dens at Orchard Organic Farm: Camping

General

  • Glamping pods on a peaceful organic farm a mile from Stokeinteignhead
  • A mile from a sandy beach and the South West Coast Path
  • Firepit, kitchenette and private bathroom for each pod

Cosy pods in a peaceful spot among the cobnut trees and looking out to an organic apple orchard… it’s quite possible you’ll want to nest at The Hen's Dens at Orchard Organic Farm for some time…

Grab a perch at this family-friendly site in the south Devon countryside, 15 minutes from Newton Abbot, and you’ll be in for a comfy break without having to cart a load of kit around. Each of the dens is equipped with beds (you just need to bring your sleeping bags and pillows), heating and electrical supply; a short trot takes you to your own personal lockable amenities area with toilet, shower and a little kitchenette (kettle, microwave and fridge – perfect for sorting brekkie).

A few lungfuls of fresh air may well tempt you out into the open for meals, so it's handy that there are picnic benches, firepits and barbecues provided to keep you fed and toasty while you take in the rural views, the sunset or the starry skies. If the weather doesn’t approve of such antics, take refuge in the local pub, a mile away in pretty Stokeinteignhead.

Free-range folks will find plenty of roaming to be done in the area: Maidencombe beach and the South West Coast Path are a mile away and Torquay’s a 15-minute drive. Exeter and Dartmoor National Park are both within 35 minutes.

    Peaceful location with excellent facilities. Showers were great and fab to have use of fridge/kettle/toaster. Scenic walk to the village pub however check opening times before you set of off as it was closed when we got there. Decided to drive to Maidencombe instead (realised afterwards we could have walked, don't know why Google maps sends walkers round the houses?) Beautiful place for a coast walk, sea dip and pub lunch. Highly recommend this followed by a stay at Orchard Farm - perfect weekend!

  • Liked: 

    Loved this place..stayed on Bramley pitch surrounded by the apple trees in the orchard. Bought a bottle of their apple juice to drink with breakfast and a few to take home, really good. It was a super base for visiting friends in nearby Teignmouth. Facilities are brilliant, everything you need and very clean. Loved having a toaster to use. We didn't meet the owners, but met the very friendly and welcoming farm dog Teddy! Planned to stay 2 nights but extended to 3 as we loved it so much.

Very peaceful site with immaculately clean facilities25/04/2023

  • Katy fully-serviced grass tent or campervan pitch
  • Recommend to friends   Visit again
  • Liked: 

    Very peaceful site located in beautiful surroundings. The sites facilites were excellent and immaculately clean. Showers are amazing, the best i've ever used on a campsite. Eco friendly with nice little touches including access to fire pits, a fridge, washing machine, microwave and games room. Perfect for a relaxing stay to unwind. Great bus routes into Teignmounth and Torquay, only a 5 minutes walk for £2.

    Disliked: 

    These did not affect our stay in anyway and are not dislikes, but thought i would mention them. The pitches are not perfectly level, so make sure you have levellers if you want it perfectly level. For us, it just meant we had to reposition the van to find a spot that work for our levellers, which are not that big. The pitches are quite narrow as well, so wont be big enough for units with large awnings. We have a Vango Faros, which just fit on the Katy pitch on my VW T5.1. It wouldnt fit on the Gala pitch, so we asked to move. They were very accomodating as well, which was brilliant. Other pitches looked narrower than the Katy, so just check if you are looking to bring an awning. There were no hand towels or dryers in toilet areas, but again, these were kept immaculately clean, so you just need to remember to take your own towel to dry your hands when using the toilet. There wasnt a chemical disposal point from what i could see either, so had nowhere to empty portaloo or waste water container. You are no further than 30 seconds from a toilet anyway, but just in case you need to use one in your van.

From the manager...

Hi Andrew and co
Thanks for the comprehensive review, really appreciated and really value the feedback, thank you. Towels is a fair point we may look to include.

    Had high winds during one night of our stay and the ground was soft. Our tent was leaning considerably as there wasn’t much in the way of shelter. Not a fault of the location… just British weather!!

Directions


Please note: All distances on this page are calculated "as the crow flies" - please check actual distance depending on your mode of travel using the Get directions button above.

Local attractions

Being a mere mile from the south Devon coast, you’ll no doubt be wanting to get down there, whatever flavour of seaside sojourn you favour. Get your boots to stride along the scenic South West Coast Path, or totter along to quiet Maidencombe beach, a mile away, for sandcastles and sea paddling.

No need to restrict yourselves to one beach though – there are plenty of gorgeous specimens along this stretch of coastline. Try Ness Cove (five minutes away by car) for fishing and rockpooling or Teignmouth (10 minutes) for traditional amusements along the pier and prom. Babbacombe Model Village and Paignton Zoo Environmental Park are both within a 20-minute drive if you need a break from the beaches.

Active types may like to head north to Dartmoor National Park (35 minutes) for all sorts of walks and bike rides, plus horse riding, climbing, canoeing and wild swimming. Folks with more of an eye for history and culture will want to wend their way towards Exeter (half an hour) instead to take in the cathedral, museums and 600-year-old Powderham Castle.

Must see

  • Living Coasts (3.8 miles)
  • Paignton Zoo Environmental Park (6.6 miles)
  • Buckfast Abbey (11.3 miles)

National Trust

  • Compton Castle (4.4 miles)
  • Greenway (9.4 miles)

Cycle routes

Find local routes on the National Cycle Network - over 12,000 miles of cycling routes.
