Liked Absolutely brilliant stay at Gidleigh Wood, fab location for exploring the moor and easy access to Chagford on foot and bike. Mark and Karen were very friendly and generous hosts always available to help with any queries. It was our first time camping in our new campervan, so we were very much ‘all the gear and no idea’ but our camping trip here has given us so much more confidence, thanks to Mark and Karen and the perfect small but beautiful site. So lovely to be off grid, the facilities were clean, compost loo better than expected (no smells) and the giant fire pit in the woods magical. Thank you.
Disliked The only slight downside was the slope, which we knew in advance. There are some places you can get level though, especially if you have levellers.

From the manager: Thank you Jules for your kind words and rating Gidleigh wood campsite a 10! We really appreciate it. So glad that your first camper van trip was a success, and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Cheers Mark and Karen
