Shepherd's Hut

Luxury yurts set in our lower orchard with kitchen, fire bowl and BBQ. The yurts make an ideal encampment for families or two couples. With Hypar sail for lazing in the shade, both yurts are served by our shower shack with hot shower and flushing loo.

Inside, find one-of-a-kind decor with a quirky handcrafted mood, plenty of allowance for natural light, and toasty wood-burning stoves: all you need for a country getaway, whatever the weather.

In keeping with our sustainable ethos, our Woodsmoke yurts are made from local steam-bent ash and poly cotton. They carry on the legacy of a design that has been used by nomadic populations for millennia: with a woven-pole structure and thick canvas wrappings, they're warm in the cooler months and pleasantly cool during summer.

Whether it's evening ambles and brunches down The Cobb harbour or rummaging for fossils somewhere in the sand, Chippers Field is well-situated for taking up activities on the seaside around Lyme Regis. Three miles from the ancient town, this quiet adults-only site has its own scenery for show, as the south-facing tree-lined terrace field is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with plenty of wildlife in the field.

Whether it's evening ambles and brunches down The Cobb harbour or rummaging for fossils somewhere in the sand, Chippers Field is well-situated for taking up activities on the seaside around Lyme Regis. Three miles from the ancient town, this quiet adults-only site has its own scenery for show, as the south-facing tree-lined terrace field is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with plenty of wildlife in the field. On Raymond's Hill, you'll be just off the A35 and a few minutes' walk away from a bus stop, so getting about shouldn't be a problem. In fact, there's the market village of Axminster five minutes' drive away (for walks along the river Axe perhaps, or a foodie-style trip out?)Of course, Lyme Regis is 10 minutes' drive away too… just the spot for pubs, restaurants and shops, strolls along The Cobb or putting in a plan of action for the Jurassic Coast's renowned fossil-hunting stretch between the town and the Golden Cap Estate.When you don't feel like going very far at all, there's a pub serving food just a few minutes' walk from the site or a local shop for all the basics next door to the pub for snack gathering (ready for local walks and cycling trails, perhaps?) You may have already seen it on the telly, but River Cottage (the same name for the TV show) is also half an hour's walk away and runs a cookery school or dining events.

Coombe View Farm offers basic camping, where it is possible to cast off the modern world, go back in time and immerse yourself in a simple, stress-free life!  We provide free WiFi which covers some of the campsite (not guaranteed) if you can't bear to be cut off!


Our campsite welcomes touring caravans, motorhomes, Campervans & tents.

We also have two mobile homes available to rent!

 At Coombe View Farm there are different animals around to make friends with.  

We have a herd of native ponies known as the "Sweetcombe Exmoor Ponies"

We have a variety of poultry including some rare breeds and a small flock of sheep. 

If you want a peaceful, basic campsite, this is the place to come.  We offer traditional camping at its best; open fires, plenty of space, star gazing & memory making.

Large group bookings available on request. 

Coombe View Farm Campsite

The campsite is for the use of tents and small campervans (VW T series, Transits etc.) I'm afraid we do not allow caravans or motorhomes.

You are welcome to have fires at the campsite. You can buy wood here, or bring your own. I recommend bringing a small axe. NB: Please don't burn wood with nails or screws in. Please use an existing fire site where possible. The stones on the farm are not suitable for use around the fire as they explode.

There is a stand pipe next to the compost loo. The water on the farm comes from a spring and is agricultural grade, therefore I recommend boiling it before drinking.

There are compost and long drop loos. Please throw a handful of sawdust into the toilet, once you have finished. The toilets are for human waste and paper only.

The compost loos have a pee separator in them. Please try to avoid throwing loo paper and sawdust down them as they will block. Its probably best to accompany small children to ensure they sit well back on the toilet for obvious reasons.

The showers are gas and electric power showers. If there is a problem with them give me a call. Please leave them as you found them.

Dogs are welcome on the camp site, please make sure they are under control at all times. Please make sure you clean up after your dog. I recommend bringing a little shovel so you can hook any poo discreetly into the bottom of the hedge. If you must use little bags please dispose of them yourself, please DO NOT hang them in the hedges, leave them by the toilets or showers or put them in the compost loo.

**Noise**

Please be mindful of noise, both for your fellow campers and my neighbours. It does feel remote here but I do have residential neighbours on all sides and the wind is pretty good at carrying sound a fair distance. I politely request that there is no amplified music.


This is a working farm so please be aware that there may tractors and other machinery going about their business. For this reason please keep to the field that the camping area is in. There are also temporary dwellings on the holding that seasonal workers are residing in, please respect their privacy.

The tent is built on a wooden platform with a canvas exterior and wooden partitions dividing into rooms which enable you to congregate together as a family or relax in your own private areas.

Our lodge comfortably sleeps four people with one double bed in the master room and twin beds in a separate room that would comfortably sleep two adults.

Set at an angle to Otter's Holt you will feel quite private and have your own large decked-area - complete with a wood-fired hot tub and table and chairs to the front and sun loungers to the side of the tent - a great place for soaking up the sun and enjoying the fabulous views and sounds of the countryside.

Our hot tub is refreshed for every new guests arrival and is re-filled with our own spring water.

Dave, Vicki, Phoebe and Jack Lawrence would like to welcome you to Knightstone Farm Glamping retreat, a luxury glamping site set on their family farm in the heart of the stunning East Devon countryside.

Knightstone's luxury lodges are tucked into the corner of beautiful Ottery St Mary, pastureland grazed by the farms dairy cattle looking onto East Hill’s woodland with Knightstone's lake just metres away.

On the farm you will also find a small flock of sheep that are all rather friendly and are grazed close to the glamping site. Various free range chickens, ducks, guinea pigs, rabbits, ponies and the best animals of all... five Pygmy goats, which you are more than welcome to come and visit (by appointment only).

This wonderful glamping site is in an enclosed meadow of approximately one and a half acres. Here you will share the setting with an intriguing range of wildlife.

Based just outside of Ottery St Mary, Knightstone is a working family farm and therefore cattle from the dairy herd will be grazing in some of the fields, but the glamping meadow is completely enclosed. The farm is a five minute walk from the lodge so you can keep yourselves to yourselves or take a short walk to the farm and see the day to day running (by appointment only).

Here at Knightstone we encourage you to walk through our fields (over 100 acres) and enjoy all the wildlife there is to see from rabbits, hares, pheasants, deer, foxes, buzzards, kestrels, owls and beavers, that were found on our stretch of the river in 2013.

There are traditional Devon hedgerows, streams and rivers, woodland, and a Pixies Cave for you to explore. You will be transformed to another world – bird song, fresh air, starry skies, amazing views, peace and tranquillity.

We maintain a closed flock of Wiltshire horn sheep numbering an average of 100 ewes and lambs, furthermore a small flock of some 50 laying hens which are completely free range. At the time of writing we are bringing on 20 Black Angus beef cattle. We also raise, as the season dictates, pigs and meat birds. We have established a certificated location caravan and motorhome park under the auspices of the Caravan Club. For additional income we renovated what was originally designed as a lambing shed into a successful holiday let.

The farm has its own water supply and we are self supporting in our electricity needs thanks to three solar generators that were installed in 2012.
