Camp Dartington
Does camping on a medieval estate, with uninterrupted views of Haytor, yet only 20 minutes to the sea sound tempting?
How about relaxing on a simple, car-free campsite, where a morning dip in the beautiful River Dart is just a short walk away – or simply take it easy and roll out of bed in to a nice hot shower?
At Camp Dartington we have this and more. Stay on our heritage site amid the beautiful rolling hills and ancient woodlands of Dartington. Footpaths will take you through 1,200 acres of conservation land managed by Dartington Trust, where you can find otters, kingfishers and many other delights of the natural world. The perfect environment for a quiet peaceful break for all the family.
If all this wasn’t enough, you can even upgrade to one of our beautiful Glamping Pods, or contact our local Bell Tent provider Breezy Bell Tents, who are offering a generous 15% discount on all Bell Tents set up at our campsite for 2024 – simply book a pitch with us and arrange direct with Breezy Bell Tents to hire a tent set-up for your stay.
