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?

The Shepherdess Hut

1 unit · Glamping15 acres · Ilfracombe, Devon, South West England
Set in a hilltop near Ilfracombe in North Devon, Fullabrook Farm Retreat is home to The Shepherdess shepherd’s hut. Based on a family-run working farm, this romantic hut is ideal for a couples’ holiday amid spectacular woodland views – plus the chance to have the place to yourselves – apart from the grazing sheep in nearby fields of course. Built from scratch by the site owners, the hut is decked out with a kingsize bed, dining and living space, plus an en-suite bathroom with a powerful, hot shower. Thoughtful extras here include robes and toiletries, plus a TV for chilling. There’s a gas oven and hob in the modern kitchenette, alongside a fridge with freezer and a stylish Belfast sink. There’s no danger of you feeling the cold on chillier evenings, as the hut has its own central heating. For those sunny evenings, the private patio has a barbecue, tables and a firepit, so you can dine outside and cosy up around the fire as the night sets in – look out for some spectacular sunsets and starry displays on clear evenings. If you can manage to drag yourselves from this lovely little spot, the local village is West Down (five minutes’ drive), which has a community-run shop for stocking up on barbecue essentials, as well as a foodie pub if you fancy a change of scenery.

Shepherd's huts near Polzeath with wifi provided guide

Overview

Some of the warmest weather in England makes camping near the seaside village of Polzeath in Cornwall a popular summer activity. From waterfront tent pitches, campers can head into nature and explore Dartmoor National Park and Exmoor National Park on wild hikes across the moors. Keep a logout for wildlife like otters, bats, and Exmoor ponies. A trip to Penwith Heritage Coast brings campers to Land’s End at the southwestern tip of the country. Explore wild camping in the moors or book a stay in a cosy glamping pod to discover more of the valleys, rocky rivers, and sandy beaches near Polzeath.

Where to go

Dartmoor National Park

An hour east of Polzeath is Dartmoor National Park, where deep river valleys cut through granite landscape. Join the otters for a splash in one of the many rivers that run through Dartmoor, or hike through the woodland valleys where dormice and bats make their homes. Rustic camping is popular in the park, with plenty of tranquil tent pitches that offer a view of the starry night skies. Campervans are welcome, although small roads may restrict larger vehicles.

Exmoor National Park

From England’s highest cliffs to winding trails through wide moors, Exmoor National Park offers one of the best walking parks in the UK. Trails range from rugged to easy, with some specially marked for accessible adventures—free from steps and stiles. Landowner permission is required for wild camping in the park, and accommodations ranging from tent camping to glamping and lodging offer a way for everyone to have a comfortable stay.

Penwith Heritage Coast

Discover the southwesternmost tip of England with a visit to Penwith Heritage Coast, where towering cliffs give a view over the Celtic Sea. Stroll through Chysauster Ancient Village and discover local history inside its 2,000-year-old walls, or wander the First and Last Trail for a spectacular finish at Land’s End. Local tent pitches and caravan parks offer easy access to the trails, with amenities like electric hookups and water standpipes.

When to go

Polzeath’s beachside appeal makes it especially popular as a summer camping destination, when crowds flock to the waterfront for sunny days in June and July. Spring and fall still offer pleasantly warm weather, with slightly fewer crowds at tent pitches. Some campsites remain open in winter and are ideal for a tranquil escape, though campers should be aware that sea storms and inclement weather may close some destinations on short notice.
