Comfortable eco-friendly glamping in Devon, with bell tents and a lakeside cabin.

Bellbrook Meadow is a secluded and sustainable glamping site quietly tucked away in Tiverton, hosting well-equipped bell tents and a lakeside cabin. Bellbrook's goal is to provide guests with ample 'Green Time', letting you shut off completely from your emails and Zoom meetings but still giving you access to amenities you don't often get in other eco-friendly campsites. And it works. Reconnecting with nature has rarely been so comfortable.

The bell tents at Bellbrook Meadow are equipped with proper beds, coir matting, and rugs, along with a wood burner for those chillier evenings. Alongside them are hand-built cabins—constructed with locally-sourced larch—housing a bathroom and well-equipped kitchen (the former with a hot shower and flushing toilet, the latter with a fridge, hob, and a bunch of biodegradable essentials). And, if you don't fancy living under canvas there's always The Lake House; a lakeside cabin, sleeping up to six with everything under one roof.

It's the little things that make a Hipcamping trip special, and Bellbrook features a number of special touches. A welcome basket boasts local Devon produce, while organic and fair trade tea, coffee, and hot chocolate are complimentary, plus the kids are given bug hunting kits to explore the region from a different perspective (usually on their hands and knees in the mud!). A few maps point out the best places for panoramic views, along with walking routes through the woodlands that start directly from your tent. For a good daytrip, meanwhile, Devon's top beaches, including Instow and Minehead, are around a 45-minute drive.

Bell tent · Sleeps 5
Campion is the first tent in our gorgeous meadow so it's perfect if you don't want to walk too far! It has stunning views across rolling farm land and is a great spot for some star gazing. It has a small decking area outside the tent with a bistro set. Inside Campion is furnished with antique rugs and modern metal beds. There is a king size bed, two single beds (all proper mattress and sustainable bedding) and a large chest of drawers for storage.

Meadowseet

Bell tent · Sleeps 5
Meadowsweet is the most whimsical and flexible of our tents. It has been furnished to echo the colours of the meadow in soft pinks and greens. As well as a very comfortable king sized bed there are two futons which can either be made up as beds for the children or provide relaxed seating for the evening if it's just the two of you. For storage there's an upcycled ottoman and 2 chests of drawers which are used as bedside tables. Meadowsweet enjoys beautiful views across the meadow. Like all the tents it has full coir matting, a dining table and chairs for 2, a log fire, private kitchen and bathroom, BBQ, fire pit and outdoor furniture.

From the host
Bellbrook Meadow has been set up with the aim of encouraging guests to spend more outside, indulging in the restorative power of Green Time! There are beautiful views and the most amazing sky as well as an abundance of wildlife. It is an exclusive site in a quiet & rural location. It is not suited to parties or groups of adults. Whilst there's a great deal of nature & space around we don't have any cafés or shops in the area, the nearest are in Bampton (5 miles). We love it but it's not everyone's cup of tea. However it's perfect for those who truly want to get away from it all and enjoy the great outdoors. We have provided guests with activities and ideas of things to do in the meadow which includes a communal mud kitchen and bug hunting kits for the kids. There's also lots of quaint Devon attractions to explore within 30 minutes drive from museums to canal barge trips and pony treks across Exmoor and as we are only 2 miles from the North Devon Link Road beautiful beaches are easy to reach as a day trip. For our foodie guests there are also several very good gastropubs within 15 minutes drive and some great farmers markets locally. Bellbrook Meadow is a sustainable and ethical holiday destination. The hand built pods are made from local larch, the furnishings are sustainably sourced and the power comes from renewable sources and there are recycling facilities on site. All our cleaning products and toiletries are environmentally friendly and refilled so there's no single use plastic. Our boutique Glamping experience combines nature and comfort. The tent is pitched on a wooden base and has full coir matting as well as rugs. Each tent has the luxury of its own private and beautiful bathroom and kitchen pod which is just a few metres away. The bathroom has full sized shower, sink and WC. The bijou kitchen area is well equipped and has a phone charging point, a full sized fridge, a 2 ring gas hob, and hot and running cold water (from our own spring so perfect for drinking). It is enclosed on two sides and has a roof so cooking in the great British weather won't be a chore! Each tent has it's own character and layout but they all sleep 4, are lovingly furnished and have storage (bedside tables or chest of drawers or reclaimed ottomans) and a toy box. Each tent also has a small table and two chairs. All the tents also have a wood burner, fire pit, BBQ and reclaimed outdoor furniture. We provide a complimentary basket of local wood. Additional wood and local, sustainable charcoal can be purchased onsite or ordered before arrival at £10 a bag. As we are a sustainable site we strongly discourage the use of disposable bbqs and bottled water (our water is delicious and rigorously tested). We also ask that you use our biodegradable toiletries if at all possible. This small site is home to just a handful of campers at a time and to keep that sense of space and privacy we have set each 6m tent approximately 25m apart. There is no vehicular access to the field but there is parking for one car per tent in the car park. Campion is the nearest tent and is approximately 25m from the parking area. We provide wheel barrows for transporting luggage. Guest access is restricted solely to the Glamping Meadow, which is several acres. The adjoining fields and farm are private and this is clearly marked by green signs. We provide towels, bedding, tea towels, cloths, washing up liquid, fair trade tea, coffer & sugar as well as Faith In Nature toiletries. We suggest you bring wellies and torches. As there is no electricity in the tent it is lit by a rechargeable lantern which can be charged in your kitchen.
