Elvan Farm Campsite

Positiv Nice location with ok facilities stayed 1 night. Clean shower . Bins on site.

Negativ We stayed 1 night leaving early next morning however Although it’s not the campsites fault the field was full of tics. Found 3 on me 1 on my girlfriend and 7 on the dog. Very unfortunate however worth noting it’s next to a working farm. Shame as made the stay uncomfortable. Not sure if there’s anything you can do to control such problem but definitely worth noting.

Portaloo Toilets were extremely overfilled however was a bank holiday Monday.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your feedback.

Unfortunately, when I popped over to check the site, you were out at the time, although I think believe we bumped into you at the farm gate, with your dog and asked if all was ok.
I can only apologise regarding the toilets, we had an extremely busy weekend, and they were emptied Tuesday morning.
I do my utmost to ensure they’re as clean and tidy as can be.
Going off this, we will look to get extra toilets for bank holiday, if we choose to open again next year.

Thank you for visiting 😊

Positiv A paddock on Dartmoor, with basic shower and toilet facilities.

Right next to a short walk to a beautiful river pool.

Lovely owner.

Look forward to staying longer next time.

Positiv It's a good basic no frills campsite. Has everything you need, and lots of space to pitch. It was quiet which is what we wanted with a special needs kiddo. I didn't use the shower but the kids said it was ok. Portaloos generally ok but when we arrived on the Sunday they were pretty full and fragrant, however this resolved after they got emptied on the Monday.

Negativ Toilets - I know the site is limited by planning etc. not sure what the solution is, maybe an upgraded model of portaloos. TBF it was only the one day that they were particularly unpleasant.

Positiv Its outdoors.

Negativ Steep field, found a pitch that was relatively flat at bottom of field near boggy ground, the generator someone had running might have been annoying, then both tent poles broke and i took it as a sign to leave, on the way out someone was pooping in the bushes.

Positiv I loved the low maintenance feel, enough facilities but not over blown.

Positiv Lovely company, beautiful views, amazing walks. There is also a natural water pool next to it. Took us about 15 mins or so walk and it was just out of this world my family loved it. Toliets where clean.

Negativ Toliets where portuterloos i would rather have compost toliets.
When driving into the field you pick and space I would rather have a pitch. Grass was a little long.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hello,

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Thank you for your feedback.

Just to explain regarding the toilets, we have tried to get planning, because we are in Dartmoor National Park, for proper, functioning toilets and shower cubicles, however we were turned down. It’s really difficult to get planning accepted in this area. But it is something that we are going to look at trying to do again.

Also, the field was cut as we opened, but have been busy since so haven’t had the opportunity to cut it again.

Hope this can give a little insight, and thank you for visiting 😊

Positiv A lovely quiet field. Freedom to have a camp fire. Very clean portaloo and hot, clean shower. Hayley could not have been more kind or helpful. A very pleasant stay! Thank you!

Negativ Nothing to dislike!
