Treyhill Farm

Gostou A really well equipped shepherd's hut in a beautiful country location with an awesome sea view.
Loved the hut and the outside space, everything we needed for a short getaway.

Gostou We stayed in the Hirondelle shepherd hut - we liked that we were able to make the last minute change and we loved everything about it - it was very pretty, had its own private outdoor space with a sea and countryside view, the dog didn't want to go home and neither did we...

Gostou Beautiful little place. We loved all the little touches dotted around the place.
Chickens, pigs and peacocks.
We loved that the hosts left us to it but were there if need be
My child really liked the rope swing and ladder to play on

Não gostou The showers could have been cleaner and are in need of a spruce up.

The noise from the dual carriageway was quite loud at night (we understand this cannot be helped)

Do gerente: Thank you for the lovely comments of our farm, we always try to do our best to make the place special and create a home from home experience.

We are sorry you felt the showers needed more of a clean, they are an older shower block system but we are looking to get this updated this winter ready for next year. They are cleaned as regularly as possible, but during busier periods it can be difficult to keep it constantly spotless.
Yes the carriageway is something we cannot change, but its only slightly nosier during the peak busier times in the day and is quieter in the later afternoon/evening.
I am sorry this little things have stopped you from not wanting to return that is a shame, but we really appreciate you coming to stay.

All the best,
alice.

Gostou Super little campsite. Friendly people and very helpful. I would stay here again for sure if I wanted to go back to the area.

Gostou Lovely glade with only a few tents so peaceful
Use of firepits and easy access/payment for logs, kindle and fire lighters when you wanted them
The walnut tree and ropes plus space in the middle of the glade for kids to easily play together and make friends was brilliant
Seeing the sunset from the gate with a view over the sea
The beautiful peacock hens and chickens
Use of microwave, kettle, cutlery, washing up stuff etc was very handy!
Hot showers (three of them seemed enough)
Dogs are allowed (we don’t have one but it was nice seeing them all and they were on leads)
Swallows nesting and singing around the toilet area were wonderful

Não gostou Only two toilets/basins and one was slightly awkwardly next to people washing up. The other was in a nice bathroom though. One more would be ideal.
Slight sound of traffic
No wheelbarrow to help carry your heavy stuff from the car (although not terribly far, it would be nice to have this)
Slight slope for tents (though very common for most campsites in the area)

Do gerente: Thank you for the wonderful comments about the farm, we really try to make it special for all guests. While giving that home away from home feel.

I am sorry you felt the toilet and basins were awkwardly placed, we are a very old farm and its very very difficult to re-structure everything this is something we can't change i am afraid.

Sorry there is no wheelbarrow, we do not really offer this as it's less than a minute walk from the parking to the camping area. However my number is located in numerous places, so if i had none i would have been more than happy to help any way i can :)

It is a shame you would not return form these small things, but we really do appreciate you coming to stay with us.

All the best,

alice.

Gostou Camping has a lot to do with personal preferences. The camping ground itself is relatively small compared to most. It is a small, enclosed field with a scattering of various trees (walnut, oak, cypress, cedar and a few large monterey pine). There is a rope swing and tree ladder on the walnut tree and the tree itself can be easily climbed. There are 3 glamping units on the field (2 bell tents and a gypsy caravan). The remainder of the field is given up to non-electric grass pitches, where you are able to set down your tent anywhere you like. There are also a scattering of hub wheels that are used for burning wood. The showers, toilets, drinking water and wahing up facilities are located off field around the back of the main house. You will have to negotiate a couple of gates to get there, but the walk is minimal and it's quite pleasant and the gardens and buildings have a lot of character. The farm keeps chickens. There's a coop on the main field and also at the entrance to the house. There is also an allotment at the top end of the camping ground. There is free use of a microwave and kettle if needed, and you can purchase wood and kindling at your pleasure. The owners have a couple of very friendly dogs, one of which is called Luna, and she loves a stick being thrown for her.

We loved our stay, as it was quiet, off the beaten track, friendly and well maintained. An idyllic location.

Do gerente: Thank you so much Gary for such wonderful review and such a beautiful description of our farm. It really is so wonderful to know people see the beauty that we do in our home.
Thank you for coming to stay and we look forward to hopefully welcoming you back in the future :)

all the best,
Alice.

Gostou The campsite is amazing, beautiful views, no cars in the camping area, contained space with quirky activities for my freerange kids to play and explore. Chickens and fresh eggs were popular. The amenities are spot on, love the cupboard of things you've forgotten and can borrow. Having campfires set up and plenty of wood (honesty box) made evenings fun and sugar fueled with marshmallows. Easy access to Bideford and Westward Ho! My Mum lives locally, I've known the area for 40+years and this is a hidden gem. There are stars for WiFi, it's camping, so unplug. But signal is great. Only dislike was leaving, we will be back. 10/10.

We look forward to seeing you again in the future :)

Gostou The meadowview bell tent was great. It's really big inside, easy to stand upright in and warm and dry , even in the drizzly rain.
It's in a nice , quiet, tidy little field, and we enjoyed having a fire pit at night thanks, that was great fun. It's not too far from a shopping centre.

Não gostou The showers and toilets could have been a bit cleaner. The cooking facilities are ... well.. pretty bad- No fridge, untidy area and dusty. Appreciated the helpful text before arrival but the young people , perhaps just working on this farm were very reclusive once there! Be friendly and welcoming, it really helps.

Do gerente: hi ros,

thank you for your review.

I am glad you liked the bell tent and the fire bit.
I am sorry that you felt the toilets could have been cleaner, i try to clean them daily when i can but when we have busy periods they can become dirty quite quickly. Regarding the fridge, we do state there is no electric in our bell tents or camping, hence why the price is low, If we were to add electric the price would be a lot higher to cover our electricity charges. However my partner did offer for you to store your fridge items in our fridge if you needed.
I am really sad that you felt we were not friendly... both me and my partner work 40 plus hours in our own jobs as well as running the campsite and we always try to be friendly to our guests despite that.
i appreciate your concerns and how you felt your experience was, but we do work so hard to make the best stay possible for people, and as we are such a small business we would really have appreciated if you came and shared your concerns to us and we would have done our very best to help you.

We are sorry you would not return again, but wish you the very best.

thanks,
alice.
