Dog-friendly glamping in Haldon Forest

·

More than 3,500 acres of woodland await adventurers at Haldon Forest, and nature lovers will be in their element. Explore miles of forest trails on foot, by bike, or on horseback; climb up to hilltop lookout points for views over the Exeter countryside; or find a shady picnic spot beneath the trees. Up for a challenge? Test out your map-reading skills on an orienteering course, zip through the woods on a Segway, or take to the treetops to tackle the GoApe high ropes and zipline course. There are no campsites in the park itself, but you’ll find holiday parks within a 10-minute drive.

South facing orchard surrounded by young woodland and rolling hills your camping stay with us will be filled with peace and tranquility while beautiful beaches and Dartmoor are within easy reach. We pride ourselves on our acessibility for people with disabilities incluidng the yurt and pond. We welcome diverse people. Camping is away from the hubbub of this small agroforestry site and we will only have very few people at any one time. This year we can also offer a 6m yurt with a fire. Foraging on site is fine, as are controlled fires. A local conservation area in a valley with a cold water pool are within walking distance. Even at the height of summer this place is a haven because we are on a culdesac road. Nearest neighbours at least 500m away in every direction. Children welcome. Wheel chair accessible compost loo and shower. Please note: our site is only available for week long bookings during August.
