Nights stayed: 3 Travelling as:  Other
Reviewer: JBandLB 7 reviews from this member

 Beautiful setting, with a safe, shaded pool in the river for our grandsons to cool off in. Boys were intrigued and unfazed by the composting toilets.

Being such a small site, other campers were friendly and owner was welcoming.

You need to be well prepared for the lack of facilities, such as a place to wash-up, and make sure you have all the food and equipment you need for your stay, as the nearest shop is miles away.

We were lucky that the weather was good during our stay - being in a camper van with two young boys would have been difficult if it had rained.

Definitely worth downloading the ‘what three words’ app - hard to find the place otherwise.

Great place for unwinding and exploring Dartmoor.

 Easily one of the best wild camping spots I’ve found on Dartmoor.

The views across the moors are incredible, especially at sunrise, and the stargazing at night is unreal.

Having the river running right through the site is amazing.

Plus, it’s only a short walk up to Avon Dam for a proper wild swim. Brilliant hikes right from the Campervan.

Definitely coming back.

 We loved this campsite! Our pitch was perfect. It felt so secluded and private.

The kids loved playing in the river and ‘fishing’ in the pond and there was SO much space for them to run around.

Riley the campsite dog was the big hit of the weekend- he is such a lovely boy!

Sarah was lovely and friendly and we had a really quick responses to emails asking questions ahead of our stay

 Reddacleave Farm Buckfastleigh devon Is amazing, our host was amazing, this is an ideal spot for a fabulous chill out.

You can simply walk out onto the moor, home made jam on the farm, and eggs from free range chickens, you can even try your hand at a wild swim.

Only one thing wrong is that my week was too short, thank you

Peter and will.

Reviewer: Jac and Dunc 2 reviews from this member

 Just returned from my 3rd stay at Raddacleave and already looking forward to going back.

If you like a basic campsite with peace and quiet and amazing views you can’t go wrong here. Each wild camping pitch is set in its own field with a compost toilet, picnic bench and fire pit. You have total privacy.

If you want electric hook up or not be so remote the pitches next to the farm house are a good size and next to the river. Wherever you camp its lovely.

There are so many great places to visit locally and you can pop into South Brent for all your supplies including camping gas.

The lanes around the camp site are very narrow so not really suitable for larger motorhomes but my camper van was fine( you definitely need to be able to reverse to drive around the lanes).

 A beautiful setting for peace and tranquility. My pitch backed onto the river, my dog had the time of her life! Dogs on leads around the site due to the free range chickens. A very friendly lab lives here too and you will need to play with him in the river otherwise you will get the hound dog puppy eyes.

The fields and space took my breath away. All I could hear were birds and the river, I felt like I’d been away for three months not just a night.

Thank you, cannot wait to visit again!

 WOW! This truly was a beautiful site, exactly what we were hoping for and more.

Hiking from site on to rugged Dartmoor, we walked to Princetown, Avon Dam is the nearest tourist location.

Hot off grid shower was amazing and extremely clean compost toilets.

Space away from other people, this is a true gem …

Reviewer: BaldrickNwinston 3 reviews from this member

 It’s not often that I’m moved to write a review but this site deserves every five star review and then some.

Each area is out of site from every other. We could have had five acres of lush grass to ourselves or it could have been ten.

A wave from an occasional fellow camper, driving past to their individual field, and that’s as intense as it gets, once we may have heard another dog bark, and this, an August Bank holiday with a good forecast.

We made a point of popping in to say thanks and goodbye to the farmers, we bought a few preserves, and smiled as we left. We were still relaxed, still smiling this evening as I write this.

A few friends in ‘vans, we went climbing at the nearby Dewerstone, one day, and walked on the Moors to the nearby Avon reservoir - the best man made waterfall we’ve ever seen.

Follow the river for a couple of miles then back around in a circle, a beautiful day out, great fun for the dogs. For the dark skies, the very best of good times.

Thank you

 What a total gem of a site.

Well spaced large pitches in stunning surroundings.

Easy access to the moor.

I never relaxed so much on a camping trip, we will be back.

One step away from wild camping, with the benefit of your own compost toilet!

Just gorgeous!

Reviewer: 6GentsFromTheLab 1 review from this member

 Absolutely stunning camp site - perfect for reuniting with a few old friends.

The communication with Sarah was easy and the 'nearly wild' pitch we booked was drivable meaning we really could rock up and camp.

There was a large picnic bench which was unexpected but very welcome with good, discreet toilet facilities and a lovely firepit with kindling provided (own logs required).

My friends and I had a wonderful time and can't wait to make it an annual occurrence.

Our only regret is that we didn't buy any of the host's jam!
