Bell tent

Liked: - Warm welcome upon arrival from the host - Bell tent with included air mattress was comfortable and withstood heavy winds and rain - Lots of activities and attractions in the local area, including a circus performance - Fire pits, benches, and firewood provided on-site - Brand new, clean toilet and shower facilities - Accessible outdoor washing up area - Quiet location with a lovely pond This campsite near Bude, Devon, provided a wonderful glamping experience. The bell tent was cozy and well-equipped, with electricity and a comfortable air mattress that held up even in heavy winds. The host gave a warm welcome upon arrival, and there was plenty to do in the surrounding area, including the opportunity to see a circus performance. On-site, the campsite offered all the essentials - fire pits, benches, and firewood for cozy evenings. The toilet and shower facilities appeared to be brand new and very clean, almost as if we were the first to use them. There was also an easy to access outdoor washing up area. The location was quiet and peaceful, with two lovely ponds at the bottom of the field. Overall, this is a fantastic campsite that I would happily return to in the future. Highly recommended for those seeking a comfortable glamping getaway in Devon.
