Quirky, back to basics site, with thoughtful, responsive hosts.

Aug 2026

Liked Great location , close to Exeter but with a feeling of being totally out of the way. We stayed monday - Friday as a family of 5 , with childeren aged 5 and 10. The road to the parking is rocky, but no major issue, short walk from the carpark to the safari tent we stayed in. We'll equipped with everything you need , cooker, water container , seating. Kids loved the hammocks and being able to explore the woods. Clean and tidy when we arrived, although the compost able toilets did need seeing to. Once I informed the hosts they got on that and apologised , however this wasn't a massive issue as they were very responsive. The hosts daughter had left a ball in the area and they said our boy could play with it too, they also apologised to the kids for the toilet with sweets which went down well and was very generous. We like the wheelbarrows to take things to the tent. Although we had the place to ourselves for a couple of nights , when other campers joined we barely saw them and didnt feel like we were on top.of anyone. We also had family local who came to see us , which the hosts welcomed. This was very nice for us. It is a back to basics site with lovely showers, which is friendly and welcoming and a reasonable price. We would stay here again ! Thank you for having us.

Disliked No real dislikes as such, however minor things - the compostable toilets are slightly difficult for smaller bums , but they did manage ok. I think it would be better with clearer signage outfront as we drove past the first time. The sign for rainbow retreat was facing the other side of the road rather than being visible driving up or down the road. There is a great communal kitchen with a pizza overn, however the handle on the pan for the pizza oven detached and we lost a pizza!!! All small things , but no reason not to go back!!!
