Our campsite has now been running for several years and is popular with both new and regular visitors. We are keen to help the environment and have provided recycling facilities which we hope will be used by our campers. Our charges for 2008 are £7.50 per pitch per night plus electric hook up £2.50 Apr-Oct, £3.00 Nov-Mar. We welcome dogs, though we ask that they are kept under control as we are a working farm.There is plenty of room for a kick about, but also plenty of space if you want some peace and quiet either on the site or on our farm wildlife walk.The site is suitable for those with disabilities in adapted caravans or campervans. However due to the terraine of the land the walks would not be suitable for wheelchairs.The views are lovely from most areas of the farm and can be enjoyed from our farm wildlife walk which covers a large area of the farm.Dartmoor and Exmoor are both within 45 minutes drive. The historic town of Great Torrington is 10 minutes away. There you will find the RHS Rosemoor gardens, Torrington 1646 the Civil War experience as well as Dartington Crystal.The town has a good selection of shops catering for all needs plus plenty of places to eat, be it a small tearoom or pub. There are also Fish & chip shops, Chinese and Indian takeaways.We are within easy reach of a wide range of attractions both outdoor and undercover. Barnstaple,Bideford and Holsworthy all within 20 - 30 minutes drive where you will also find a wide variety of shops and places to eat. For those who wish to travel further afield the Eden Project can be reached in about and hour and a half as can the cities of Plymouth and Exeter.Bring your bike, or hire one locally, we are only 3 miles from the Tarka Trail where you can ride for miles without having to worry about cars and lorrys.How to find us.From Torrington take the A386 towards Hatherliegh after approx 3.5 miles turn right at The Gribble signed posted for Petersmarland.
