Revisited the site for one night after a visit in early 2014. A bit of an early season try out for the camping gear: I found I had forgotten my EHU lead, but no problems, the helpful lady in the office lent me a spare lead. The site seems just as nice as I remember.
Facilities are not very big, but very clean. My partner found the ladies showers good and well arranged, though no seat or stool in cubicle. Free wifi gave a good strong signal, and an extra aerial has been installed. Majority of pitches are hard standing with grass pitches in middle of site.
A path way across grass to facilities would be handy when the grass is wet, if you are pitched on the south side of site, or you need to make a detour around the gravelled track to get there. As observed in previous reviews there is noise from bikers and other vehicles on road to north of site, especially at weekends and Sunday afternoon: the evening seemed OK.
Recommended site, but try to pitch on south side if you stay over weekend.
Stayed here last year for a couple of nights as a stop over for a journey to Cornwall, we were so impressed we thought we would come back for a longer stay,
firstly the site is very well kept and clean, hard standing and grass pitches are available also ehu, the owners are very friendly and help full and are I mind of information,
the only down side is the traffic noise from the road at the weekend and bank hols, it is used by motor bikers as a test track the noise is unbearable from quite early to late evening, also there is a barking dog in the distance that just won't stop,
toilets and showers are clean and well kept, small shop on site with the basics, also there is a children's play area,
I would use the site again as the owners are very helpful especially when we asked to be moved to another pitch further away from the road,
so to sum up get a pitch on the furthest side from road or take some ear plugs with you.
Spent a long weekend at Barley Meadow in early September. Lovely site which is very well maintained by the franchisee. Each pitch has ample space, the toilet/washing block is in the middle of the site and although the building is a bit old all the facilities are excellent and clean.
Whilst the site is very peaceful and quiet, the only niggle was that the road that the site is on seems to be used for the occassional 'speed test' for motorbikes, which does break the peace for a moment or two.
Ideal location for exploring Dartmoor, great pub in Drewsteignton closeby.
A lovely little site, with lovely people running it, who are very helpful. However, what spoilt our weekend was the continuous barking of a dog nearby that was non-stop for a number of hours one evening.
How anyone can remain content with such annoyance into their lives is beyond me.
It is for this reason alone that I rate this site low.
Award-winning camping and glamping on the edge of Dartmoor National Park near Tavistock, Devon. 40 grass and hardstanding pitches for tents, touring caravans and motorhomes with optional electric hook-ups. Choose between the scenic Daffodil Field with moorland views or the sheltered old walled garden. For those preferring a bit more comfort, the park provides camping pods and mega pods.
Immaculate facilities with free hot showers, toilets, hairdryers, underfloor heating, laundry, dishwashing, games room, small shop, WIFI and playground. The onsite manor house hosts a dog-friendly restaurant and bar serving evening meals. Surrounded by mature woodlands with direct access to Dartmoor, with Tavistocks amenities just a short drive away. Perfect spot to explore Devon and Cornwall's main attractions Find out more here
We used this site as a stop off for a couple of nights on our way to Cornwall.
We had a very friendly and informative welcome and were given the choice of pitch with a walk round with the warden. The ground was quite soggy and as we had a grass pitch we were a little worried as the chocks sank into the ground but there were no further worries!
The site has a small shop selling all the usual essentials as well as some very useful walking maps/guides. We had a lovely walk to Fingle Bridge which has a reasonably priced pub, as well as a walk the next day to Castle Drogo which is well worth a visit.
The nearest pub is at Drewsteignton selling guest ales and is a true 'traditional' pub, but we decided it was a little far to walk in the evening at about 40 minutes hilly walk.
The site had good facilities, though the hot tap for washing up is to be treated with care!
Rather open site on high ground. Convenient for Castle Drogo National Trust property, which can be reached by footpath and lanes on Two Moors Way. I found the road quiet on a Friday evening around 5. 30 pm, and only saw two vehicles and one service bus. Walking west along road, which is quite wide, after half a mile you reach the path which takes you south.
The facility block is rather small, but quite usable. Note about wifi: I was unable to pick up a connection near the far corner of the site.
I'd like to return here to do more walking. A good site to get away from urban bustle, but Exeter is less than half an hour's drive away.
Barley Meadow is a franchised C&CC site on Dartmoor, Devon.
It's a relatively small site, but immaculately maintained with friendly helpful owners. We were there over the August bank holiday and thought that the facilities might be overloaded, but we never had to queue.
We had to move from a nearby site and were pleased to discover that this site was both cheaper and, in my view, better organised.
An unexpected bonus was the excellent free WIFI that was available on our pitch.
Plenty of interesting places to visit nearby, we stayed for 7 days and enjoyed safe cycling along the Tarka and Drake's Trails. There are also a few very interesting NT properties in the area. Coleton Fishacre is superb, once the home of the D'Oyly Carte family - a magical house, garden and location. Exeter is a lovely city, with cathedral and interesting waterfront.
I have only scored the location as 8/10 as there is some noise from the adjacent road, not a major problem and hardly any traffic after lights out. Further we were not confident about cycling on this road, and had to use the car to reach more satisfactory places to ride. Not a deal breaker by any means!
We used this as a stop of for a couple of days before heading into Cornwall. The only mistake we made was not booking for longer and we will certainly return.
This is a great site with very friendly and helpful wardens who go that extra mile to ensure you enjoy your stay.
The site is well laid out with plenty of space between caravans. Jenny the owner ( it is a franchise for c&c club) was wonderful taking us around the site and allowing us to pick a pitch. She also assured us she would make sure our friends arriving the next day could have the pitch next door. We were shown a booklet they have done themselves showing the many places of interest in the area. A copy of this is kept in the information room.
One real bonus was free wi fi as we have never known any site before not to make extra from this.
This is a quiet and peaceful site, the facilities though dated are spotless and more than adequate.
Spent 2 nights at Barley Meadow Site. Owners very welcoming. Small site, adjacent to a fairly busy road so there is some traffic noise. This site is on the very edge of Dartmoor and wherever you go you do need to drive.
We tried to walk to Fingle Falls but it's quite a distance and when you leave the site you are on the main road as mentioned above with no pathway.
Buses and HGV's use the road regularly so it's not ideal for walking if you want to access the Two Moors pathway. The site doesn't have a dog walking area.
The toilets are very clean although they need updating. Good hot showers but no where to hang clothes and towel etc except for 2 hooks on the rear of the door.
There is full laundry facilities available. I do think however the site is slightly overpriced for what you get, but it's a nice clean site, and you are made to feel welcome.
Their saving grace is the free WiFi they provide. TV Reception is also good. I think if I visited Dartmoor again, I'd try to book somewhere more suitable for walkers avoiding the main road situation.
Overall though, a good site with helpful and friendly owners.
