Benton Springs Shepherds Hut

1 unit · Glamping14 acres · England

Our beautiful shepherd hut is situated right on the edge of Exmoor with fabulous views up to the moor and also down to the sea. Our hut is lovingly handcrafted, fully insulated with cast wheels and is the perfect place to unwind and relax. There is no running water in the hut but access to it is a short walk. Also the shower/ toilet block is about 20 meters from the hut. The little log burner provides enough heat to heat the hut in winter or as an additional heat source on cool summer nights making it the ideal holiday no matter what time of year. If it’s spring, summer or the depths of winter you’re sure to have a wonderful stay with us. There’s so much to do here… You can get out into the countryside or help with the animals on the farm. Or, if you just want to take it easy, you can do absolutely nothing, take advantage of the blissful peace and quiet and relax. Our location also makes an ideal base for exploring North Devon, sandy beaches and rugged coastline being only a short drive away.

Northcombe Farm Shepherds Hut

1 unit · Glamping21 acres · Beaworthy, England

Whether you’re planning on darting down to Dartmoor National Park for hikes and the like or exploring sandy beaches and surf hotspots on the Devon coast, you’re going to need somewhere cosy to stay that’s within reach of it all. That’s exactly what you get with the shepherd’s hut at Northcombe Farm, just half an hour’s drive from Dartmoor National Park, 35 minutes from Bude and 40 minutes from Widemouth beach. That’s not all – the shepherd’s hut also has stabling facilities available for one horse, and with three bridleways nearby, there are plenty of options for outings. With two private fishing lakes, you’ll be free to spend the morning fishing for roach and tench if you wish. The river Wolf also runs through the site’s boundaries. It’s likely you’re already aware of the excellent beaches along the south Devon coast, but fab views can also be caught from the ferry or boat trips that operate around the coast. Soak up all that spectacular scenery from the South West Coast Path too, along with splendid seaside towns along the clifftop route. South Devon has three areas designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, as well as a World Heritage Site, a selection of national nature reserves, Sites of Special Scientific Interest, forests, woodlands and parks. They’re all mighty good places to appreciate nature at its finest. Beaworthy (10 minutes’ drive) first, perhaps, for granite tors, standing stones and ancient woodlands? Or Dartmoor’s ponies, stannary towns and peaceful villages?

Shepherd's huts near Fowey with wifi provided guide

Overview

With its pastel-painted houses and rows of fishing boats flanked by forested headlands, Fowey paints a pretty picture. Perched on the edge of the Fowey Estuary, this small port town makes a strategic base from which to explore and has a choice of seafront campsites. Hike along part of the South West Coast Path, take in the views from the seafront St Catherine’s Castle, or enjoy bird-watching around the estuary. Looking to get on the water? The beach at Readymoney Cove provides sheltered waters ideal for swimming, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding, while boat cruises set sail along the Fowey River.

Where to go

Cornish Riviera

Golden beaches and picturesque Cornish towns hug the shores of the Cornish Riviera, which stretches west of Fowey. St Austell and Falmouth are the main towns, where you can visit the Eden Project, enjoy bird-watching around the Fal Estuary, then stop at a café for a traditional Cornish cream tea. Beach lovers have endless choices—Carlyon Bay, Par Sands, and Porthpean all draw crowds in summer, while the hidden coves around Polkerris and Portloe offer a more tranquil experience.

Bodmin Moor

North of Fowey, the rocky tors and wild moorlands of Bodmin Moor provide a dramatic backdrop for hikers. Discover Bronze Age ruins, spot wild ponies grazing on the heathlands, or enjoy a picnic looking out over Golitha Falls. Camping here is all about getting back to nature, whether parking your campervan on a working farm or pitching your tent on the hills.

North Coast

If you’re looking for some of the UK’s best surf, you’ll find it along Cornwall’s windswept Atlantic coast. Newquay and Bude are the main hubs, with waves to suit both seasoned surfers and first-timers. Nearby, discover the evocative ruins of Tintagel Castle, tuck into delicious seafood in Padstow, or check into a campsite by the beach in Perranporth or Port Isaac.

When to go

Peak season in Fowey is June through September, when the waters are warm enough to swim, and the coastal breeze keeps it cool enough for hiking. This is peak season for campers, so book in advance to avoid disappointment. Winters in Cornwall can be wet and windy, so tent camping is off the menu, but off-season visitors can benefit from fewer crowds, dog-friendly beaches, and free parking at St. Catherine’s Castle.

Know before you go

Fowey has a few camping and outdoors stores where you can pick up supplies for your camping trip.
Fowey has public transport links to many of the surrounding towns, but it is handy to have your own transport, especially if staying at rural campsites.
Most campsites require advance booking, and many ask for the full payment in advance. Be sure to check opening dates, as many campsites close in the winter months.
Wild camping is illegal throughout Cornwall.
