Cracking campsite with amazing views over to Dartmoor. We had a great time relaxing and walking. Showers are nice and hot, facilities clean and the little shop is well stocked. Declan and Sara are really lovely and helpful. We also had an archery lesson with Declan which was great fun and very reasonably priced.

Lovely site, everywhere clean and tidy with good facilities. Well stocked shop for essentials. The hedging makes it feel more secluded. The hosts Declan and Sarah couldn't make you feel more welcome and Declan was so helpful, thank you. As for roaming chickens and George the pig ❤️😊 Lesly & Steve
