Difficult site to find on narrow Devon country lane -one overgrown sign in hedge (house name only )
Very rough track to camping areas
Hook up is extension cable provided by owner
No easy access water for refill
General dilapidated feel to site
Very limited shower / toilet facilities
Decided against risking damaging our motor home on the rough access and poor pitch facilities so after a walking inspection decided not to stay and headed for a CL nearby which is delightful via mobile
A beautiful location with fantastic walks and lots of wildlife right from the site.
Unfortunately the facilities were lacking and looked like it was the family bathroom or in use by the permanent residents. We chose not to use the shower as it seemingly had private shower gels and a razor in it.
Roger and Wendy were lovely and personable.
If you're totally self sufficient then fully recommended. via mobile
I enquired using the form on here and got a swift reply saying they had availability and the cost which was £16. 50 for two adults, one dog, the campervan on a choice of pitches. However upon arrival we were charged £15 for the night as it was out of season.
They could do with putting a new sign up as we drove past it first time and the roads are quite narrow when it comes to turning around.
Upon arrival I met the owner who was lovely and walked us around the site and showed us the available spots to pitch. The meadows looked nice, with great views but as it was December it was too wet for the campervan, so we opted for the secluded pitch with it's own shelter, rope swing, seats and firepit.
The pitches are all quite close to the main house which houses the toilet, shower and fresh water. The toilet and shower are in one room, and are old, but they work. We struggled to get hot water from the shower, but it was late in the day when we showered, so maybe it had all run out.
Walking from the site is great, you have to do a short bit on the road before joining the footpaths and woods and you can take you for miles in all directions. As it was late in the day, we did not walk as much as we would have liked, but I would not want to be out there after dark and lost!
The area is so dark, so at night we were treated to an amazing night sky with many stars and a few shooting ones too.
We did not venture out into the area much as we were using it as a stopover, but there was a village 10 minutes away, and Exeter was only 20 minutes. But this is on the edge of Dartmoor, so you have all the delights of the moors on your doorstep.
There was very limited phone reception with no EE or GiffGaff service, but we got a bit of Three reception, enough to stay in touch with home.
This is a quirky site with lots of weird and wonderful spots and things to see and I would stay again.
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
A camp site with a difference and not all as good as previous reviews state. Single mucky toilet and shower. Sloping horse pooh ridden fields. Electric hook ups that leave a little to be desired.
The good points, Tranquil setting. Great location for extended travel. Lost in time. Use of camp fires. Eccentric and friendly owner, but we wouldn't go again.
Very rustic, camping in someones back garden or their paddock. Toilet facilities are shared with the house on a 'Jack and Jill' system, adequate when I was there.
Owners very friendly, if a little eccentric, but a nice setting. Felt like camping in the wilds, all sorts of tweets and twitterings.
Campfires allowed, but bring your own wood.
Some good walks along the River Teign, down to Dunsford and up to Castle Drogo.
Beware very narrow lanes with few passing places.
However, 2 wonderful nights in the middle of nowhere!
I stayed at Sweet Meadows for a couple of nights in July. It's in a delightful setting not far from the Teign, with miles of riverside and woodland walks nearby.
There are a few options for camping: the garden, a small field behind the house and a larger paddock beyond that. We opted for the garden which was sheltered and secluded.
The facilities are on the basic side (a toilet and shower attached to the owner's house) but perfectly adequate for the size of the site, and totally in keeping with its remote setting.
There are lots of narrow lanes leading from the site to nearby Drewsteignton, Dunsford, Chagford and Moretonhampstead, so be prepared to reverse!
From reading other reviews and after staying there for two nights with the family in June 2012, whether you will enjoy your stay or not depends on what you want from a campsite.
The facilities are basic and cannot cope with more than 8 or so tents (1 toilet, 1 shower, 1 sink). However, if you want to stay in the back garden of a lovely, friendly, local couple and enjoy the delights of the area then this is for you.
Gorgeous river walks just down the road. During our short walk in the late afternoon a family of deer crossed across the path perhaps 50 yards in front of us - breathtaking. The owners are very relaxed and our boys loved the campfires we had every night as well as a short ride on the horses.
Lovely pubs to eat in or have a drink within a 15 minute drive.
People should know that this isn't really maintained as a campsite in the usual sense of the word. It's someone's back garden and spare loo that they make available to campers.
It has a rather run-down feel and one gets the impression that improvements are highly unlikely in the near future - the owners are not in the first flush of youth! On arrival we were unable to make contact for over half an hour even though we shouted our heads off, yet there was someone in the house all the time.
The single toilet is shared with the occupants of the house via a double entrance which was confusing. There is only hot water (and thus shower) at certain times of day. Prices have increased substantially for 2012 and do not, I feel, reflect the service provided.
All that said, the owners were very welcoming (once they heard us!) and helped generously with various items. The location is superbly remote with fantastically dark skies, so great for star gazing if you get a clear night.
The Teign valley is a grand area for walking, and Dunsford has a good pub and occasionally a great tea shop.
