Mystery Woods non-electric forest floor tent pitch (no pets, wild)
Liked: We were welcomed by the owners and shown around the pitch. Access to multiple compost toilets around the sites, showers had hot water. We were wild camping in the wooded area. It was so nice and secluded.
Disliked: The only down side was we couldn't park near to where we were camping meaning having to drag everything to the wild site, but the owner let us borrow a wheel barrow.

'Sunset View' non-electric grass pitch
Liked: A beautiful campsite where the “sunset view” pitch really lived up to its name. The site was very tranquil and we enjoyed a wonderful sky at night, complete with shooting stars! Stacey and Richard were very helpful, and we appreciated all their efforts to make the site as eco-friendly as possible. The site is well located for access to Dartmoor and Okehampton. We’d definitely all like to stay there again.

'Sunset View' non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Location, great site, compost loos and great showers. The owner is obviously committed to caring for the environment.
Disliked: It's a shame children are ruled out from the glamping. We would have paid extra to upgrade in poor weather. We have done this all over the UK with no issue.
