The Bus microlodge
Liked: The bus was really cool and well kitted out (even fresh ground coffee, hot water bottle, small mirror, washing up kit) comfortable and warm - even in February. The manager was very helpful and available by phone if required. Great views, really quiet. WiFi available. Plenty of firewood available and the wood burner kept the bus really cosy and was easy to get cranked up.
Disliked: The bathroom was quite a long way from the bus. Only an issue for a wee in the night. But I gather there is a small loo on the site (near but not too near) the bus which is available in summer. We were there out of season (Feb). This wasn’t really a problem for us though. The road to the camp can be flooded and pot holed in winter - no problem in an SUV. Fairly typical and what I’d expect for country lanes in winter though but be prepared if there is a lot of rain around.

The Bus microlodge
Liked: The bus was incredible, such an awesome glamping opportunity and gave us the chance to really get off grid for a bit. Views were also amazing and the local town, Instow. was really lovely. The farm is also a fairly short drive from Croyde - which was great for coasteering, and the Bideford activity centre was really close and excellent fun for high wires and a really fun obstacle course.

Bell tent (XL)
Liked: Liked bell the tent very much It was comfortable with lots of space and well decorated. We locked the chickens and the the tree for kids to play in
Disliked: The bathrooms were clean however for 2 full bell tents, 4 tents, a bus and a camper van I’m afraid this was in adequate for the amount of people in bad weather esp little children only 2 toilets and 1 working shower Also bell tent was cold a wood burner would have made all the difference for the price Otherwise great stay

From the manager: Hello! Thank you for your feedback. We're not sure why there was only one shower working during your stay - for anyone reading this now please be assured they are all fired up and lovely and hot! As for the quantity you're right, the weather was particularly dreadful and it can make everything seem a little glummer, but I think it's worth noting for others reading this that we have successfully hosted two weddings here this summer where by brides, bridesmaids, flower girls have all used our facilities to get ready for their big day with no complaints - I guess it comes down to a matter of preference. Oh and as for a log burner in the bell tent, we did toy with the idea too but opted for safety first. Always happy to offer extra blankets if you let us know you're chilly. We're really pleased you'd love to return and stay with us however and look forward to seeing you again soon. Nikki & Tim
Good view and decent facilities.…

From the manager: Hello, and thank you for your time. We are interested to see that you've rated accommodation as 3/5 when you bought your own tent, but pleased to see you've rated the facilities we did provide as 5/5 for cleanliness - thank you! We have set our prices to reflect the fact that we are a small and more personal site than the busier, more rowdy caravan parks and sites, but we appreciate everyone has their own taste and preference. Best wishes, Nikki & Tim.
Simply wonderful!

The Bus microlodge
Liked: Absolutely loved the bus! Interior was lovely, had everything we needed. All the animals were a lovely added bonus. Great hosts and had a lovely time.
Disliked: Only things my son didn’t like was not having a lock on the bus door but we wedged a log in so no one could enter so it wasn’t really a problem and he would have liked curtains at the front (I think this may be tricky to do). Wouldn’t stop us booking again, would stay again in a heartbeat.

The Bus microlodge
Liked: Most amazing views, so peaceful and quirky.. loved having everything there (kitchen, bedding, home comforts) The small details- bus steering wheel, drivers chair, the family games and books… also the kids loved seeing the chickens and allotment onsite.
Disliked: With small kids, it would have been good to have curtains for all windows, to darken it down for bed time- but with such amazing views and complete privacy I can understand why you wouldn’t want to block it. Eco toilet also a little small
