Longview Camping

At Longview Camping you and a group of up to 8 people can experience complete seclusion in Devon with stunning views of Exmoor. This small and peaceful site was designed with families and friends in mind, located on a smallholding and intentionally surrounded by bushes and hedges for total privacy.

The camp is fitted with 2 separate dwellings, the main being a 14 ft yurt complete with bedding, solar shower, cookers and more! For extra sleeping quarters, there is also a vintage scout tent too (which requires your own bedding).

Amenities onsite include a composting toilet, solar shower, gas hob and cold water sink, as well as a firepit perfect for cosy evenings. The site is accessible via private road, with space for 2 vehicles, and is within range of many superb North Devon beaches the likes of Saunton Sands (40 minute drive).

For walkers and cyclists looking for some adventure, both Dartmoor and Exmoor offer plenty of possibilities. Alternatively, the local town of Torrington can be reached in 5 minutes and has indie food shops and takeaways, local crafts and even a pannier market on Fridays and Saturdays (for foodies!). For a bite to eat during the day, there is a great farm cafe just 10 minutes’ walk. Finally, there are plenty of rustic pubs in nearby villages such as Beaford (15 minutes’ drive), Weare Gifford (15 mins), Kings Nympton (25 mins) and Chittlehampton (20 mins).

If you arrive by train, it may be possible to arrange collection at Umberleigh Station – so don’t miss out on this unique and exclusive camping experience with Longview Camping!
