Passaford Meadow Campsite is a peaceful spot open to cyclists, walkers and anyone looking for a back to basics countryside experience. This off-grid site's pitches are totally car-free for extra relaxation, with traffic-free trails such as the popular Tarka Trail accessible just a short distance away. You'll be pitching up on a level field of just under an acre, with facilities that include two basic composting toilets and a simple shower set-up. There's also a washing-up sink outside, plus a fresh water standpipe. As this is a remote spot without any lighting, please bring a good torch to help you get around after dark. The site is about 10 minutes' walk from the little town of Hatherleigh, where there are two pubs and a café to explore. Hatherleigh also has a small but handy supermarket, a Tuesday market and local buses which can take you to Okehampton, Bideford and Exeter, allowing you to relax and leave the car behind. Passaford Meadow Campsite welcomes barbecues.
