What customers say
Barley Meadow Touring Park gets top marks for spotless cleanliness, friendly staff, and its peaceful adults-only vibe. Guests love the modern facilities, roomy pitches, and handy on-site shop. The secure dog area and nearby farm shop are big pluses. Minor road noise is mentioned, but most folks want to come back!

Overall stay was very pleasant and being and adults only site a bonus!
Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked The site was very welcoming as soon as we arrived at reception and checked in. Plenty of information offered regarding the site both in advance and on arrival.
All the pitches had good space for setting up.
Very clean facilities, plenty toilets and lovely hot showers.
Disliked The site is right next to a very noisy road, not constant traffic but many loud vehicles racing by at times!
On site shop very limited and farm shop closed Sunday and Monday which is a shame if staying long weekend.
Quite a distance from any large food shop suppliers.

From the manager: Many thanks for your review. We are pleased to see that although you have disliked so many things about our site, it has not stopped you saying you would still return. Just to clarify a few things: We are just a small campsite and we have a small shop which is for convenience for our guests. We are NOT a supermarket. The Farm Shop: This is completely separate to our campsite and feel it is unfair that you are reviewing them when you are meant to be reviewing the campsite. They are called Oinkers if you feel the need to review them. With regards to the road we cannot control what drives along it. This road gives you fantastic access and is on a bus route. If you want complete peace and quiet with no road noise then I suggest that you find a campsite that is in the middle of nowhere with narrow lanes to get to. With regards to being far away from places I suggest that in future you do your research to where you are staying. We are 3 miles away from the A30 which means you can be in Exeter in 20mins and Okehampton is 15mins. However we are grateful that you would recommend us to your friends. Best wishes from Leigh and David.
An amazing site with a very special atmosphere, can't wait to return.
Power optional grass campsite
Liked We can't praise this site and owners enough! We had a lovely greeting from Leigh and David who were more than helpful with checking us in and guiding us to our pitch. Fantastic facilities that are kept immaculately clean and the showers that are powerful and hot also amazing WiFi which for us is much appreciated. The shop on site sells your essentials which is a great addition to the site especially when I need of ice for your gin. There is a very short walk to a farm shop ( this is an independent shop not part of barley meadow) which sells your local veg and meat produce. We truly cannot wait to come back, we loved every minute of our stay just gutted our week went so quickly.
Disliked There is nothing we disliked, we LOVED our stay!

From the manager: Many thanks for your review. Sadly we do have some road noise as we do have the old A30 which runs past the site. This gives guest fantastic access and a bus route to Exeter and even Bude. Best wishes from Leigh and David
