  • Scenic adults-only dog-friendly site in Dartmoor National Park
  • Haven for hikers and bikers, 20 minutes from Exeter city centre
  • On-site shop, information centre and secure off-lead dog area
Escape from messy desks, busy inboxes and fume-filled commutes with a peaceful fresh-air stay among grownups only at Barley Meadow Touring Park, a dog-friendly site under five minutes’ drive from the Devon village of Crockernwell. As it's in Dartmoor National Park, this is a top spot for hikers and bikers with a yen for exploring far-off places: the 117-mile Two Moors Way (which stretches from Ivybridge to Lynmouth) passes 10 minutes’ walk from the site, and National Cycle Route 27 and the Granite Way walking trail can be joined 15 minutes’ drive away in Okehampton. Closer to home, you can stroll next door to the farm shop to select goodies for your dinner. There’s plenty more to investigate around splendid Dartmoor, but of course… but not before kicking back for a bit on site… Stock up on snacks in the on-site shop (open subject to demand) while letting canine chums run off-leash in the dog area, or plan outings and pick up ideas for local walks, activities and visits in the little information centre. All sound a bit too rural? Never fear, as the site’s central and easy to reach: it’s just off the A30, and there’s a bus stop right outside the site entrance for trips to Exeter and Bude. Eco-friendly drivers can charge their electric vehicles using the EV point on site too.

Aires overnight (roadside) power optional cement/asphalt RV campsite

Liked Nice and clean pitch. Very clean facilities. The greatest dog area ever.

Disliked One could smell the septic area at the pitch.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. So on arrival you were told to reverse into the pitch so that your habitation door would be facing the other direction. You choose to ignore this information and drove into the pitch which meant your door was facing the tank. We have had the hottest year in a very long time, adding in the volume of people we have had on site especially during July and August, this means that sadly the tank does have a smell. However we are pleased to see that you enjoyed our dog area. Best wishes from Leigh and David.

A lovely adults only site in the countryside near a farm.

 John P. 8 reviews

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Quiet location, lovely sized grass pitch. Nearby farm shop selling tasty freshly made sausages and bacon. Good size shower cubicle and nice toilet block. Adults only. Wi-Fi very good and free

Disliked The shower head is fixed and water sprays everywhere. Push button shower. The floor squeegee doesn't really work very well so cubicle floor stays wet with debris still on it.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Many thanks John for your review. With regards to the shower head you can move the nozzle. We provide a mat outside for people to wipe their feet to minimise any mess. The squeegee is more to help push the water and soap towards the drains. However we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. Best wishes from Leigh and David.

 Andy S. 3 reviews

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Went for a weekend of solo camping. Absolutely wonderful site. Facilities are first class, some of the nicest showers I've ever used at a camp site, and toilets were spotless every time I used them.
The site is well situated for walking - I didn't need to use my car all weekend. The local village is around a half an hour walk and has a great pub. Castle Drogo was just over an hour which was a nice afternoon out.
The site itself was very conveniently located 5 minutes off the A30, so despite being in a very rural area, you don't have to drive down any tight roads to get to it. But the noise levels were mostly fine - just the odd boy racer.

Lots of animals and wildlife - sheep, donkeys, birds! And very dark skies at night, great for stargazing.

I'd definitely go back!

Local attractions

Devoting a few days to rambling explores of Dartmoor National Park is a must hereabouts, with plenty of stunningly scenic spots to include in itineraries. Start with the nearby Teign Valley and the can’t-miss Lydford Gorge (the deepest gorge in south-west England) – don’t forget a camera to snap some shots of the spectacular White Lady waterfall and the Devil’s Cauldron whirlpool. There are more ways to explore Dartmoor National Park than on foot or by bike too: adrenaline junkies can try out whitewater kayaking or canoeing along the River Dart, or head into Okehampton to sign up for scrambling through gorges. History buffs are well served around these parts too: jaunts into Exeter come with possible pitstops at the city’s famed cathedral, medieval guildhall and Tudor-built House that Moved (that one deserves a quick internet search), while rural travels lead to stately manors including Powderham Castle, Castle Drogo, Killerton House, and Buckland and Buckfast abbeys, all within an hour's drive. Poke around England’s last working water-powered forge at Finch Foundry and visit the Museum of Dartmoor Life near Okehampton, or step back into the present day with some kid-friendly fun at Crealy Adventure Park or Diggerland Devon, both around half an hour from the site.
