Brackenhill Glamping

"We had a lovely stay during mid September with good weather to match the wonderful scenery and setting. The location is excellent just a short drive from A38, local towns and villages. The owners really have considered everything, accomodation immaculate, with lots of additions and equipment to ensure you can self cater in a very relaxing manner. With numerous farm shops en-route we stocked up and enjoyed a cooked breakfast on the BBQ every morning. The wood burner is a great addition and really ensures a cosy evening whilst taking the chill out of the night, combined with comfy and warm bedding. Logs, kindling and charcoal is available onsite at a reasonable price, so no need to bring your own. We made use of the guidebook and map provided for some wonderful walks and wild swims in the area, all within a short drive though if you wish to stay put for the day, the site could entertainment young explorers in the field, stream and grassland. Boardgames also provided. The village has two pubs and also visited weekly by the mobile fish and chip van, pre-booking for all local catering is essential. Shops are nearby in Ivybridge. We would absolutely return to relax and also continue to explore the wonderful coast and countryside in the area."

"If a holiday home could come close to perfection, Brackenhill might just be it. The setting (the view across the valley and the hills behind, with the church tower at its centre) is stunning; the seclusion (the field is overlooked only by buzzards by day and bats at night) is both calming and deeply affecting; the safari tent itself is an aesthetically beautiful thing, but also practical - spacious, sturdy, comfortable and spotlessly clean; the family who own and run the site are the very best of people, attentive but never intrusive, they genuinely want you to love the place as they do and go the extra mile to make it so. As for practicalities, the facilities in the tent are excellent and there is a wood burner within and fire-pit without; parking is safe, spacious and easy, the honesty shop is a godsend (the village at the bottom of the hill has two pubs but no shop), and Ugborough is perfectly placed between the moors and the sea. We will definitely be coming back, again and again."

"A super glamping experience. We stayed for 5 nights and the safari tent is situated in lovely spacious countryside and fully equipped and clean for a comfortable stay. We stayed with our two young boys who enjoyed visiting the beach everyday, fishing and playing a game of cricket next to the tent. The breakfast box was full of tasty produce, especially the black pudding and sausages! The place to stay in Devon!"
