Lane Barton Farm cracks open the Devon countryside, and it's not without its creature comforts… well-suited to couples, this cosy, off-grid site has bell tents near Holsworthy, ready for guests to chill out in the outdoors without the constant buzz of the busy towns and cities as a distraction. It’s quiet here, but that doesn’t mean that you won’t be able to make a splash down on the coast. Summerleaze Beach, a hotspot for everything watersports, is 35 minutes’ drive away from the site, as is a National Trust beach and Roadford Lake – just one of two lakes nearby with walking, cycling and watersports (Tamar Lakes, 25 minutes’ drive away, is your other choice). With pre-pitched bell tents as your new hidey-hole, you’ll be happy to find little comforts including a firepit (perhaps you could go stargazing at the same time) and access to a wonky shower shack and eco loo. The shower has hot water, although it’s sometimes temperamental. Aside from admiring the countryside views, another activity some of you might want to get to is on-site fishing (a license is required for this activity). There are countryside walks locally too (or Dartmoor’s trails 40 minutes’ drive away), but before you get going, you’ll likely want to charge your batteries with food from the local farm shops, pubs or restaurants within 10 minutes’ drive of the site.
