  • 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.

What customers say

This working farm campsite offers spacious, level pitches with lovely countryside views. Visitors frequently praise the extremely friendly and helpful owners, the well-stocked farm shop offering local produce, and the on-site cafe serving excellent breakfasts. The farm animals are a significant draw for families. Facilities are generally clean, though some noted the showers require payment and are a walk from some pitches. Some minor untidiness was mentioned, but overall experiences are overwhelmingly positive, with many guests recommending and planning return visits.

Liked The owners were very friendly and helpful, the site was very well kept and most of the pitches were flat. There is a farm shop on site for all your needs, including raw milk (stunning taste). The on site cafe served food with locally sourced ingredients. We tried the cakes and breakfast which were all delicious.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Fantastic farm shop, pricey but the quality and taste of food is worth it. The site was quiet and staff friendly. Grass for site is short and well kept.

Disliked Toilets needed a clean and some rubbish scattered around on site near dog poo bin and where I had parked. Long nettles near the chemical disposal point and I stung myself. Bins and showers aren’t near the field itself, worth keeping in mind for logistics of your stay. Signs stating that driving vehicles down the path required to the showers not permitted before 7:30am. No obvious signs for water fill up and didn’t find water taps on the field I was parked in with the toilet block. Might have missed these! Grey water is disposed of where chemical disposal is and no drive over drain suitable, also worth keeping in mind if people have an under slug grey water tank.

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.
