With a low carbon footprint, views to make your eyes water, homemade cakes and scones and a warm welcome for the pooch… it's no surprise that guests glow with warmth about the spacious Bales Ash Campsite near Umberleigh. Described by its amiable owners as 'a little green campsite in the heart of north Devon', Bales Ash sits up above the Taw Valley amid countryside of the beaut variety and fab views across to nearby Exmoor. The Tarka Trail is within easy driving distance and the (also fab) surfing beaches of north Devon are within about 12 miles. As you might expect from a site that endorses 'camping as it used to be', the vibe is relaxed and friendly. The amenities are kept to a spotless standard and include three hot showers, three eco-friendly compost loos, a shared portable toilet and outdoor Belfast sinks with hot and cold water. Wifi is available and guests can charge phones for free in the shower block. Water at Bales Ash comes from the site's borehole and is treated to provide pristinely clean fresh drinking water; tap water standpipes are also on each pitching field. All of the electric comes from 40 solar panels. There's also recycling collection. Teas and cakes can be baked on request (surely something to request as soon as you arrive) and the owners specialise in top-notch gluten-free baking. There's a shop selling cakes on site. And then settle down to stargaze or to sit by a firepit (for hire for a small charge): guests glow with warmth about the quiet of this place too.

Gjeterhytte

Likte: Loved our stay at the hut, it had all the amenities we needed and it was very tidy. The facilities were all very clean and the communication with the hosts was great. Great area to walk the dog too! Well situated on the map to visit popular places nearby.

Plass for telt eller bobiler på gressplen , uten strøm

Likte: Quirky, Nice hot clean showers, easy going, toilets are an experience, Freezer, washing machine and tumble drier. Also has a well stocked shop. Fire pits are a nice touch.

Likte ikke: Lots of dogs left off the lead and inconsiderate dog owners not cleaning after their animals. The lack of site rules means you can get noisy neighbours until ungodly hours

Fra bestyreren: Thanks for staying with us, we do publicise that we have compost separator toilets, they are such a bonus for the environment and smell far better than a portaloo. It was unfortunate that after your lovely quiet week with us your last 2 nights were the August bank holiday Fri and Sat where things can often be noisier. That large group at the top did quieten down after we spoke to them. I'm ever so sorry that you had an issue with dog poo, I do wish you'd told us. We always plan where we locate dogs carefully and we walk the site a number of times each day and hadn't been aware of an issue with this. I did speak to one holiday let visitor who I observed not picking up but we do find that dog owners are very respectful here.

Great place for the dog. Lovely big fields. Great showers. Lovely people.…

Likte: Everyone was so accommodating and lovely, especially Caro whom we had the most interaction with during our stay. We were very well looked after by all. Debbie the owner went above and beyond baking us a gluten free cake (due to being coeliac) for our sons birthday, was super yummy! The facilities were excellent and kept very clean, being able to do our laundry was a huge bonus too! The shop was stocked with gluten free bits and the basics you’d need. Being able to hire a fire pit&bbq on site was a huge help. There were a couple of hidden gems about 10/15 mins away that are great for families to do and explore. They also have a couple of football goals too which made our kids very happy!

Lokale attraksjoner

A number of scenic strolls are directly accessible from the site, such as the easy one-hour round walk to two local pubs, or the hike to Woodland Trust land on Kingford Hill. The north Devon stretch of the South West Coast Path is a little further away. Within easy reach by car, the scenic beaches of Croyde, Woolacombe, Saunton, Putsborough and Westward Ho! will give days upon days of sunbathing, surf lessons, swimming, rockpools, kitesurfing and coasteering. The Tarka Trail, a series of footpaths and cycle paths through north Devon, is a short drive away; alternatively, cycle to one of the stations along the Tarka Line train route running for 39 miles between Exeter and Barnstaple. Also in the region, you could get green at the RHS Rosemoor Gardens or Broomhill Sculpture Garden; try National Trust attractions like Arlington Court; hike the Heddon Valley or visit the Museum of Barnstaple and North Devon to see what's been what in the area throughout the ages. And if you have kids, they'll be glowing with happiness after days out at Devon family-based attractions like The Big Sheep, Exmoor Zoo, Watermouth Castle and Family Theme Park and Atlantis Adventure Park.
