A small, peaceful campsite in the heart of the Devon countryside A quiet place to get away from it all, with just six caravan pitches and a choice of tent pitches. Plenty of space, fresh air and easy access to the coast, Dartmoor, Bodmin Moor and the towns and villages of Devon and Cornwall. Shepherds Rest is on the edge of Halwill Junction, where groceries, hot food and other everyday essentials are readily available. Evergreen Farm, our son's business, supplies their fresh meat, sausages and bacon. A post office, hairdressers and fish and chip shop are all within one mile along with the Junction Inn pub/restaurant, a Baptist and a C of E Church. Further afield there is a great choice of places for dining out. Fancy exploring via public transport? There is a bus stop right outside the site, with four buses a day running between Bude and Okehampton. During the summer, a Park & Ride operates just outside Bude, which we recommend using during the busy season. The bus takes you directly into the town centre, close to the shopping centre and lifeguarded beaches. Or, why not take the bus to Okehampton and then the train to Exeter where there is an even wider selection of things to do, for example, to visit the Cathedral.
