Bring your canine companions for a back-to-nature getaway in this glamorous camping destination. Ideal for families or friends looking for outdoor adventures in the beautiful Exe Valley, it boasts a children’s play area as well as a veranda with views and a private firepit for toasting marshmallows under the stars.
The safari-style tent blends rustic character with the practical comforts of hot, running water, electricity and Wi-Fi. Take the steps up to its raised deck and pause to appreciate the panoramic vistas over rolling hills and trees. Inside, the open-plan living area boasts comfortable seating and a wood burner – ideal for sociable evenings after long walks, with your dogs lazing at your feet. The compact kitchen includes a gas hob and a small fridge/freezer, and the sturdy dining table stands ready for serving tasty meals. In this space a cute cabin bed makes a snug hideaway for children or adults. Two further bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, complete the sleeping arrangements, and they all share a family shower cubicle at the rear. Your veranda offers uninterrupted views, perfect for watching the sun set while dining in the fresh air, sheltered from the weather. You also have the option of gathering around the fire pit for some late-night storytelling. The site’s shared facilities include skittles, boules, a children’s play area, a seven-acre, riverside meadow and a car park, where you’ll have dedicated space for two cars.
Take your hounds to stretch their legs with a walk along the nearby Exe Valley Way, or venture 12 miles to the Exmoor National Park, where trails will take you through tranquil moorland and deep valleys with tumbling streams. Four-legged friends are also welcome on the narrow-gauge railway at the Devon Railway Centre, just 50 metres or so from your door.
