  • Friendly and traditional farm site with fantastic views over Exmoor
  • A 15-minute drive from Tiverton and half an hour from Exmoor
  • Small shop selling farm produce including free-range milk and meat
‘Traditional and uncommercial’ is how the owners of West Middlewick Farm describe their home, making it a champion choice for a chilled break in mid-Devon countryside. It’s also rather a pretty place to have a hol. On arrival, eye up the excellent views out over Exmoor National Park from the main site, a four-acre field circled by farm walks, then amble over to the carp fishing lake to angle for the afternoon. It’s not just about peaceful pursuits hereabouts, though – the Gibson family who own the site say there’s plenty to do, spanning from theatre and film to history and heritage, in the nearby area. Tiverton (15 minutes’ drive) is home to a castle and edges a canal, while Exmoor (half an hour) has walking trails, a cracking coastline and historic villages to explore. Back at the park, a small shop sells the farm’s produce – including raw milk and free-range meat – and stocks other locally sourced ingredients such as butter, cheese, ice cream, fresh fruit and vegetables, jams, chutney and Devon fudge too. Fancy picking up a souvenir? Homemade soap and sheepskin are top trinkets to take away. And as for food? Spread out on your spacious, level pitch for a picnic or pull up a pew at one of the nearby and order a freshly cooked meal.

Liked Nice quiet site with very friendly owner & staff.
Pitches are well spaced and while not perfectly level you do not need multiple blocks to set up.
Lovely farm shop.
Be aware this is a working farm.

Disliked SATNAV.
Travel via Tiverton, satnav may save you a mile driving, but the are a lot of single lane roads around this area.
B3137 is a good road but be aware of the minor roads around the area.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked We had a wonderful stay at this campsite. The pitches are spacious and have electric hook-up, making for a very comfortable stay.

The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The on-site farm shop is well stocked with a wide range of quality gifts and local produce, including fresh raw milk.

There are goats, donkeys, pigs, and cows on the farm, which adds to the lovely countryside atmosphere. We also enjoyed a first-class breakfast at the Hayloft Café.

The location is lovely, and the toilets and showers were very clean. We would definitely recommend this campsite and look forward to returning.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Peace and quiet, the farm shop, cafe/restaurant, lovely fresh produce, and the farm animals.

When you arrive, what you mustn't forget is this is a working farm.
The twice daily highlight for us is the milk run stampede (pardon the pun) being in the lower field.
If you want peace, quiet and tranquility, this is the place for you to visit or stay.
A little off the beaten track, being away from the major connerbations but supported on site by a really well stocked farm shop with great quality produce across all ranges including farm fresh and pastuerised milk daily from the herd.
All the staff are really friendly and approachable, any issues are sorted, they love to please.
The pitches available offer great value for the money, pitch sizes are enormous, 10 x 10 metres is common, but being quiet there is no maximum set for pitches.
The site offers pitches for caravans, tents and motorhomes, pods and lodges.
A very quiet site, with open views over the rolling hills that most will enjoy.
We stopped for 8 nights, and could have stayed longer.
WiFi is only available in the shop and the Hayloft cafe.
For the cost of the pitch, the quietness and vfm, it has to be 5 stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Disliked A bit out of the way, commuting to anywhere is a task.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked The cafe was nice and friendly but apart from that absolutely nothing.

Disliked We were told by the family owners that to get to the fishing pond which was advertised on the Website we needed to go under an electric fence and through a large field of cows , when asked about health and safety Policies and concerning the safety of access to the pond the owner then suddenly turned round said the pond was now closed ,they even told us that recently a gentleman with a young boy of 10 yrs carrying fishing gear actually had done the journey with no problems at all. There was no visible notices warning people of safety rules which I would expect even on a working farm. Also it was mentioned that there was a river on the farm as well which we then found that you had cross over a road, down through a field and across two other fields.. even a working farm needs to have standards, to use the Elsan point was only accessable through brambles,and stinging nettles.

Local attractions

Clip-clop around the countryside from The Rose & Crown in Calverleigh, which organises horse riding lessons (15 minutes’ drive), or take to Tiverton (around the same distance) to poke around the town’s castle and meander by its canal. Another place to peer at is Knightshayes Court, a turreted house and garden with a tearoom (25 minutes), while Bickleigh Mill – dating back to the 18th century and with a pottery studio for clay-based classes – is also worth a gander. If you’ll be keeping adventures alfresco, set off on the scenic Tarka Line rail journey, starting in Exeter (40 minutes) and finishing in Barnstaple. Or for more lovely landscapes, loop around Exmoor National Park (half an hour), perhaps up to the lush coastal villages of Lynmouth and Lynton and through the vast Valley of the Rocks (an hour). If sandy sunbathing sessions are more your bag, turn in the opposite direction towards Exmouth beach on the south Devon coast (also an hour), stopping by estuary villages like Topsham enroute for a pint at a pub with a watery view.
