What customers say
Ashbourne Woods provides a tranquil, natural woodland retreat with a "wild camping" vibe. Guests rave about the friendly, helpful staff, clean facilities, and spacious, private pitches. It's a great base for exploring Devon, and campfires are a big plus. A few guests suggested updating the showers.

Beautiful forest campsite
Power optional grass tent campsite
Liked Beautiful setting, peaceful, large pitches. Nice reception area with kettle in the kitchen. Clean toilets etc. Let me stay an extra night for free when my car had broken down. Would love to come back one day.
Disliked Would be nice if more forest pitches had electric. Shower water flow not fantastic and only stays on for seconds, but facilities were nice and clean.

Primitive gravel and earth campervan campsite (woodland)
Liked Loved our stay at Ashbourne Woods and will definitely visit again!!
The camping is amazing (not really wild though haha). Loved the lay out, the way a busy site still felt private. The store had a few really convenient things-even vegan butter! The pub is a 10min walk away and served excellent food with the best service we’ve had in 6 years in the UK!

Primitive gravel and earth campervan campsite (woodland)
Liked This campsite has a really unique feel to it with pitches cut into various areas of woodland, giving you plenty of privacy but still with a good size of pitch.
Very friendly hosts/staff and thoroughly enjoyed the vibe that the campsite offered - was sad to only be staying for one night!
10-15 walk to the local pub in Rattery which is dog friendly and serves excellent food!

Primitive gravel and earth campervan campsite (woodland)
Liked Just loved the peace, quiet and space that this pitch had. Great having our own water tap too. The lady at reception was really friendly and helpful and the facilities were great.
The site was really well located, not far off the A38, but still felt quiet and tucked away. We will definitely be back for another visit.
Disliked All good.
