General
- Off-grid camping with secluded grass pitches in the Devon countryside
- Five minutes’ drive to Dartmoor National Park; Castle Drogo 25 minutes
- Swimming pool and sauna, plus shared barn with kitchen and games room
Set in 4.5 acres of gorgeous Devon countryside near Okehampton, Middle Corscombe Farm is a place that's just got a small number of off-grid grass pitches cleverly hidden away from each other in paddock and meadow landscapes. Each pitch is nicely secluded to give the feeling of an exclusive hideaway for large family groups, single families or loved-up couples.
Whether you’re after a rural stroll to spot the wildlife (look out for deer leaping across the meadow), helping the kids to build a den or enjoying a picnic by a gurgling stream, there’s plenty of room for everyone to lose themselves around the grounds. Kids can play Pooh sticks, and you can all watch the sunset together from around the campfire or eat alfresco on warmer days.
If the weather's behaving, have a leisurely dip in the swimming pool. On any rainy days, magic your cares away in the sauna, or simply drift down to the repurposed hay barn to cook and chat with fellow guests in the campers’ kitchen (powered by wind turbine and a solar panels, so eco-credentials are excellent here) and dine out on the covered decking.
Feeling idle? Laze away the hours on nattily upcycled denim sofas in the living area; if the kids get restless, send them to burn off energy with a game of pool or table football.
If you need to restock edible goodies, supermarkets in Okehampton (10 minutes’ drive) are your best bet.

Great family site, maybe a few tweaks but wholly enjoyable.
From the manager...
Many thanks for your feedback it is appreciated. In future can I suggest you check the details of your stay on the Pitchup site as it clearly states Kids fun hour in the pool is a good idea but not for us as we have other guests that we need to consider. However guests can combine slots with each other if they so wish The lane access - The lane down is about half a mile long and there are 2 ways to access from the South and North of Corscombe lane. As we are a small hamlet with only 6 dwellings, the likely hood of coming across another vehicle are slim but possible. Clearly we can’t do anything about this but it has its advantages in terms of feeling of seclusion and keeping car speeds down. The hedgerow either side of the lane also offer a great natural environment for wildlife. |

Many thanks for your feedback it is appreciated
The 3 paddock pitches are south facing so do get a lot of sun which is ideal for some campers, for those that like it cooler we have another 2 pitches in our meadow which is shaded by trees and next to the stream.
Campers can also bring gazebos to provide shade and we do have an 81 square metre barn which has seating and tables to play games and escape the sun on hot days and rain on wet days. In addition there is a a mezzanine for children to play pool, table football or air hockey.
We also have an acre wood which can be used by guests with a clearing at the far end.
All feedback is appreciated and will help us improve our communication for next year.
