Hardstanding pitch

  • Large level-grounded working farm site in the Devon countryside
  • A 10-minute drive from Roadford Lake; opposite a forest with trails
  • On-site farm shop selling fresh and local food; country pubs nearby
Your adventurous side may very well rear its head once you touch down at Evergreen Farm in the Devon countryside. This large level-grounded site is in a rural patch opposite a forest, 10 minutes’ drive from the watersports haven at Roadford Lake and 35 minutes from Bude’s beaches and Dartmoor National Park. Fancy like some fresh produce to start off your day? Well, you won’t need to stray far, as there’s a farm shop on site selling free-range eggs and locally produced meats. This is the place to get your hands on a hot brew and a savoury or sweet treat, as there’s a selection of pies, pasties, sausage rolls, cakes and hot food available daily – plus local ice cream, cream teas and cups of tea and coffee. Once you’ve got all that energy in your veins, it may seem natural that the large forest opposite the site is next on your to-do list. Packed with wildlife and plenty of opportunities for kids (or adults) to let off steam, there are trails for walking and cycling and places to mash together a den. When you’re looking to stock up on your supplies, there are gas bottles available on site and local shops within four miles of the site. Holsworthy, Okehampton and Trethorne Leisure Park are all under 25 minutes’ drive away from the site, so you’ll be well within reach of leisure centres and golf courses too. And when you’ve got more food on the brain, there are several traditional country pubs serving food within 10 minutes’ drive of the site.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Simple yet effective, had everything you need for a one night stay like ours, hot powerful showers, plenty toilets, lots of space. Job Done!

Disliked: Not a dislike, just could have done with an extra sink to wash dishes. Bit of a line.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Lovely campsite! It’s so difficult to find a fairly priced campsite these days but these guys have pulled off the ultimate value for money experience without compromising on quality. We’ve done lots of camping this summer with our large family and this has been our favourite by far. The toilets and shower facilities are wonderful nice hot showers and sparkling clean! Really welcoming and friendly owner and the farm shop is filled with deliciousness. It’s spacious and there’s a calm and friendly atmosphere. Woke up in the morning to see cows grazing in the next field, which delighted my toddlers. We will definitely be returning for a longer stay next year it’s just such a wonderful and laid back atmosphere. Exactly what we look for in a campsite.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Lovely little site. Spacious, level and well cared for pitches. We are long standing customers of Evergreen Farm's delicious meat and have been meaning to come up and stay for a while. Despite the rainy bank holiday weekend we had a great time and will be back next year as there is lots to do in the area. Peter and his family are really friendly and welcoming. Our boys had a great time watching the tractors and cows as its a working farm, we even heard owls hooting at night!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: We had an absolutely fantastic time here, the facilities were kept immaculate and well stocked. The addition of a washing machine was great, unfortunately we didn’t get the chance to use it, as it was a busy weekend. Farm shop was great when it was open, the meat was phenomenal as well as the eggs! Site was great for the kids to just run, we actually added an additional night as we didn’t want to leave! Nothing was too much hassle for the hosts.. we cannot wait to return, you were our first proper camping trip and we cannot wait to continue with the camping bug! Thankyou for having us… see you again soon :)

Disliked: Only thing I could pick out is maybe putting in a freezer for iceblocks…

Local attractions

So, you’ve got a thing for the outdoors… if so, Roadford Lake (10 minutes’ drive) should make it onto your activities list, as there’s walking and cycling on the shores, and out on the lake you can try watersports from kayaking and canoeing to craft-making (fingers crossed it doesn’t sink). Of course, Dartmoor National Park (35 minutes) is all about being in wide open spaces. Naturally, that may mean getting a bit mucky… horse riding, cycling, climbing and canoeing are all on the go here. Those of you specifically wanting to barrel around on bikes will want to set off to Sourton (20 minutes) to get onto the Granite Way cycling trail (there’s bike hire, too, for those of you without your own). After all that activity, perhaps you’ll want to round off the day with a cream tea in the ancient stannary town of Tavistock (35 minutes). The sugar rush might revive your senses – and that’s OK too, as you’ll have all the more energy for the historic Dingles Fairground Heritage Centre (15 minutes), the large Ashbury Hotel Golf Courses (20 minutes) or Bude’s beaches (35 minutes).
