Airstream caravan

  • Sustainable and peaceful glamping site in rural south Devon
  • A 10-minute drive from Ashburton and Dartmoor National Park
  • Composting toilet; private hot tub for each unit for an additional fee
Nature is very much at the fore at Wilderhus Glamping – this South Devon site is in a stunning natural setting surrounded by gorgeous greenery. It has been set up to be as sustainable as possible, using ethical producers and bringing in eco-friendly facilities like compost toilets, and has even won an award for its eco efforts. There's also an adventurous access to the site via a seven-minute walk across a field. One huge highlight is surely the Scandinavian-style wood-fired hot tub (with firewood provided) at each unit, which is only available for an additional fee. The hot tubs are all completely secluded, too – so you'll be able to unwind in the warm water while looking up at the sky or skinny dip in peace if you so wish… There’s a real feeling of calm at this rural location – it’s a fabulous spot for wildlife spotting, birdwatching and evenings of stargazing, and the 'tiny homes' have been well placed around the site to make sure that all guests have a good of space and peace to soak up the atmosphere. The units here are all completely individual, characterful and self-contained – each one has its own composting toilet a short distance away, a small kitchen area and a barbecue, plus handy extras like a cool box, lighting and towels. All the units are run by solar power, which can be temperamental if the sun is lacking. Heading out and about, your nearest town is Ashburton (10 minutes’ drive, and something of a haven for foodies with its independent shops, eateries and famed cookery school), with Totnes and Newton Abbot 20 minutes away. For those seeking more nature, the walking trails, wild ponies and ancient stone circles of Dartmoor National Park are just a couple of miles away. Water on site is from a borehole and springs, so guests may want to bring their own drinking water.

What customers say

Guests enjoyed amazing views, cosy and clean accommodation, and a peaceful getaway. The airstream and shepherds hut were well-equipped and comfortable, with log burners adding to the cosy vibe. The hot tub was a highlight for many, offering a special experience under the stars. The farmer promptly resolved an unexpected visit from cows. However, some found the location difficult to find, particularly in the dark, and experienced issues with the hot tub being dirty, the shower temperature, and electrics. Some guests felt the accommodation was not worth the price and reported a lack of helpful staff. The manager has since addressed issues with signage for easier access.

Airstream on-site touring caravan (hot tub)

Liked We really enjoyed our stay at the airstream had a lovely get away, the drive there is a bit tricky the country lanes are tight, it was a bit tricky finding the entrance but once your there it is just you and the nature 🌳 we had a visit during the night which surprised us in the morning the airstream was surrounded with lovely cows my partner had a great surprise for his birthday 🤣 the farmer came and sorted it out straightaway! We did really enjoy ourselves and the bed is super comfortable, log burner is just a bonus makes the stay really cosy, would visit again!

Disliked Shower was warm for 5 seconds then would go back to cold straight away
