The Heart of Exmoor

Tyckte om Beautiful remote location. Nice views over the North Devon hills. Quiet and peaceful. Great views of the night sky. Free firepit with wood available to purchase. Composting toilet was clean.

Just be wary of the midges in summer, as they were out in force and biting.

Tyckte om Really quiet place, beautiful views, owner was super helpful.

Tyckte inte om Drive down to the camp site was a bit rough, especially for my lowered car.

Tyckte om We loved the peaceful surroundings and friendliness of the owner (Serena), aswell as the other campers.

There were free firepits to use and logs weren't expensive to buy onsite either.

Loads of room and the eggs were amazing.

Tyckte inte om Although we managed to get down the lane in fairly low sports cars, it took a fair bit of navigating so as not to tear our undertrays off.

Im not marking the site down because of this though.

Tyckte om Fantastic site, lovely an peaceful with lots of space. The toilet facilities where a plus along with options for a fire pit and wood. The views are stunning and if you get a clear sky during the night then it becomes even more spectacular with an amazing veiw of the stars. We where lucky enough to see two shooting stars and several star constellations.

Från föreståndaren: Thank you so much for your lovely comments and taking the time to add photos. I'm so pleased you got enjoy being at the heart of a dark sky reserve. Have a fab Summer.

Tyckte om Brilliant communication from the owners. Text and email so the information wasn’t missed which was very helpful. Very friendly people.

Fantastic compost loo. Probably the best I’ve ever seen. Equipped with 2 seats (helpful when travelling with children) and very spacious so you’re not bumping into everything when you’re in there with your child. A box inside the loo for charging your phone and to provide light for the toilet. Smelled very fresh and was super clean. Plenty of spare toilet roll.

Great location. 5 minute walk and you’re on the moor!! Very close to Exford for pick your own organic blue berries and a great park for the children.

Loved the facilities for fires which is a priority for us when camping. Bricks and slabs available. Spare fire pits available to borrow and wood available to buy from an honestly box or BACs details.

We didn’t buy any eggs as we’d brought our own but that would have been great if we’d stayed longer.

Where we pitched up was very gently sloping so was fine for us and didn’t lead to any slipping sidewards in our tent.

Beautiful hilltop with a cracking view. Lovely stay. Will DEFINITELY stay again when there’s another meteor shower.

Från föreståndaren: I'm so glad you appreciated the campsite, it was lovely to meet you - you had a pretty amazing set up - pizza oven to top it off!

Tyckte om Beautiful, simple campsite which, funnily enough, is in the heart of Exmoor. Firewood available and was given to us free two nights in a row. Probably the nicest compost toilet I've ever seen. We turned up on the first day of its availability and had the site. Semi-wild feel but at no point would you require 4WD.

Från föreståndaren: Thank you for being my first campers of the season, it was lovely to meet you and your family. I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay! Have a lovely Summer.

Tyckte om This is the most fantastic campsite. Its nearly wild camping and yet everything you need is there and the views are amazing. If I lived closer I would be there every weekend!

Från föreståndaren: I am so pleased that you enjoyed the campsite, we are regular nearly wild campers and it's exactly how we love to camp.
