North Thorne Glamping

喜欢 Such a lovely, peaceful place with amazing views and loads to see and do nearby. We especially loved the little forest around the reservoir just below the campsite – perfect for the kids to run wild and pick blackberries and raspberries. We stayed for eight nights and didn’t want to leave.
The safari tent was spacious and comfortable, and the facilities were great. We were welcomed with warmth – and even a delicious homemade cake, which was a lovely touch. Thank you!

喜欢 Very friendly welcome, and great communication throughout the booking.

Myself and my son stayed for a long weekend in Bluebell, the converted horse-box. It’s very comfy indeed. My son slept on the bed above the cab, which is effectively queen sized, albeit with limited head height. I had the slide-out sofa bed, also very comfy. All sheets/duvets were provided - clean and fresh. The living area is practical and has useful cupboards etc. There is an icebox space beneath a twin-gas burner hob, with gas bottle outside - a nice helpful touch!

Outside are your own garden chairs, log burner, BBQ, large bench, cooking console, and sacks of logs available to buy.

The private shower/loo/basin room in the main block is lovely - and the shower is a nice roomy walk-in, with plenty of hot water.

The large washing up area is quirky, friendly, roomy, and where you also find your own fridge, with a small integral ice freezer.

All-in-all a very well organised and equipped site. And the space between each pitch is immense - so much privacy, so much peace and quiet!

A beautifully tucked away farm location, with a nearby reservoir to walk around, and a friendly pub with food and pool table a mile away.

Thank you so much, a great place to stay.

ps don’t tell the owners, but we made VERY good friends with the ginger cat - we were sad to say goodbye!!

喜欢 Hidden gem! We booked a last minute August bank holiday stay in Bluebell the horsebox and what a wonderful holiday we had. The owners Sarah and Andrew were so lovely and welcoming and will help you with your bags from the car down to the campsite. We loved that no cars are allowed on site. The games barn /tennis court/goats, bunnies etc kept the children well entertained and there were plenty of other children for them to run wild with in the field. The hot shower was a real highlight! Each family is allocated their own bathroom which was way nicer than I expected and own fridge (it's little things like this that will mean I'll return - since I'm not a camper!!) The campsite is peaceful and safe and Bluebell the horse box was cute, comfy and everything we needed. I had the best night's sleep I'd had in a very long time. We travelled around to different beaches, it's a lovely area. Our highlight was a 3hr walk from Croyde to Saunton Sands (part of the tarka trail). We went to Putsborough beach on the recommendation of the owner Andrew and it was our favourite beach by far!! We're already thinking about booking for next summer...

喜欢 The campsite was great. Andy and Sarah were really helpful and friendly. It's a beautiful site, the tents are great, toilet/shower facilities were really modern and clean. Lovely to have your own, with a lock, so you can leave your stuff in. Wish we stayed for longer.

不喜欢 Not really a dislike buta couple of things to be aware that if you would like to change electronic devices, in my tent there were only USB plugs. I only had USB-c cables, but was able to pick up a cable in town.
Location is out of town, which is perfect for it's adilic location but the taxi's are very expensive and can be difficult to arrange.

喜欢 Had an amazing four day stay in the four person safari tent which was lovely. We were made to feel very welcome by Sarah and Andrew, who took the time to show us around the site and provided us with our own fridge and individual uniquely styled bathroom and toilet (they were all amazing). Our two boys loved the animals and felt very safe as they are both autistic and were very happy with the play barn. We will most definitely be returning and would highly recommend to friends and family.

喜欢 A lovely site with everything we needed for your stay. We stayed in one of the glamping tents and we could not fault it. They are basic, but this is exactly what we were looking for. The communal room was well kitted out for wahing up and storing our food, and the private toilet and shower areas were nice and clean. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this site.

喜欢 Fantastic sensory and setting. The owners were lovely and having a private bathroom was a really nice touch.

不喜欢 The sofa area turns into a bed. This is perfect as travelling with myself and three children but the sofa cushions are stained. Possible drinks or urine. We were given a duvet to put on top but it felt unclean.

No curtains covering the windows so it gave very little privacy at night when the lights were on. It made changing uncomfortable.

The grass is the softest, thickest most beautiful grass but is kept fairly long, even though it had recently been cut. The cuttings are left on the field, grass is everywhere, in our bed, shower, clothing etc. and even on dry days mornings and evenings the grass is wet. Being long it’s impossible to have dry footwear

来自经理: Michelle, Thank you for taking the time to give us your honest feedback. Without this we can’t continue to improve and provide a lovely experience for our guests. We do take your comments very seriously as diverse opinions can only make us better.

In respect of the grass, we have so far taken the view that we want the 5 acre field to be useable for kids to play football/games etc and have therefore constantly kept this mowed (using a ride on mower not tractor for a quality mow). Given the size of the field it’s impractical to collect all the clipping, particularly here in the South West where the grass doesn’t stop growing (although the luscious green does look beautiful). Grass cuttings do end up getting in the accommodation and shower rooms, so we may well decide to compromise and leave more of the field as uncut meadow with pathways to the accommodation. A good topic for an end of season survey - thank you.

For the sofa bed mattress cushion, this is hand stitched and fitted, rather than loose and removable. It’s scrubbed regularly as part of the change over process and we acknowledge there is a stain but we see no evidence this is urine related. We’ve felt that the hand-stitched fitted approach giving us greater choice of material to make more visually appealing was the way to go but it has its drawbacks and perhaps a looser more generic cover maybe better. The mattress topper provided is covered with a sheet, both of which are freshly laundered and bagged under the bed ready to use along with duvet and pillows for the sofa bed.

For the curtains, whilst the large double doors have curtains, the side windows do not and we’ll address this as well - thank you.

We hope you enjoyed your time at North Thorne. We are constantly looking at our price relative to our competition and their offerings and the feedback we get from all our guests and believe we are hitting the right level.

喜欢 Lovely holiday destination, the owners have put so much love and thought into their campsite. The safari tents are clean and spacious, with your own dedicated shower room and toilet and fridge in the communal block just for your own us.
Thank you for an amazing stay.
