Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: We absolutely loved our stay at farleigh, we love to camp and small quiet campsites where we can have a fire and the dogs can relax without being on top of other campers. The facilities are great, clean compost loos and a lovely hot shower.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Lovely quiet location, and exactly as advertised, hosts were helpful and pleasant. The owners young daughter did a lovely job of welcoming me. Facilities were very clean and in very good condition. No light pollution so views of the night sky were amazing.

Disliked: Some of the pitches can be a bit more exposed and windy in bad weather, but I was there in September so to be expected and I did have the option to move to a more sheltered spot. I extended my stay so it wasnt anything that put me off, just worth noting when you choose your pitch if the forecast isnt great

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Location was just a mile from the pub, and it was a good pub for food and drink.

Disliked: Unfortunately the showers were temperamental and we did not end up using them as they were not working when we were ready to use them. The small roads around the site were very busy so not great to walk on without getting involved in traffic. For a remote location that was a shame.

From the manager: Thanks for your review. Unfortunately there was a small glitch with the shower, which was an error not caused by us, and we did let you know as soon as it was fixed (within 10 minutes). I’m sorry this affected your stay. In the summer months this is a fairly busy part of Devon and I’m sorry the lanes weren’t as quiet as you had hoped.

Friendliness of Steph and her family. The peace and quiet. Lovely views…

Local attractions

Here for the hikes and bike rides? The South Hams District (10 minutes’ drive) is a splendid setting for all that, as is Dartmoor National Park (15 minutes). The River Dart (20 minutes) will make a fine introduction for watersports if you feel like getting your hair wet – and if that has you wanting more, Dartmouth (20 minutes) is a destination for surfing, kayaking, paddleboarding and coasteering. Perhaps you want to get into the rural spirit while here – meet animals at Pennywell Farm (20 minutes) and Totnes Rare Breeds Farm (25 minutes). If it’s the historic stuff you’re really interested in, Totnes (15 minutes) has a castle, museum, brewery and market. Dartmouth Castle (25 minutes), Dartington Trust (20 minutes) and the South Devon Railway (20 minutes) steam train are some other old haunts. Adults are likely to love the Sharpham Wine (20 minutes) vineyard, while families are well catered to at Woodlands Family Theme Park (10 minutes), Dartmoor Zoo (half an hour) or with boat trips on the Salcombe Estuary (half an hour).
