Yurtcamp Glamping Devon

Newton Abbot, Liverton, Devon, England

Yurtcamp Devon & Dartmoor | Luxury Glamping Holidays in Devon It feels like everyone wants to be outdoors and camping at the moment; whether you’ve done it before or new to the notion of sleeping under the stars, an awesome movement is sweeping the country. Except...not everyone wants to spend their holiday hammering in tent pegs and playing cats cradle with guy ropes. Well, this is where Yurtcamp Devon swings heroically into action. They’ve done all the hard work so you don’t have to. There is still all the simplicity of a nature based getaway, but your home is a contemporary yurt and you sleep on a proper bed. Situated on the edge of Dartmoor National Park in south Devon, this excellent, family friendly site is set up like a village, with groups of yurts dotted about well kept fields and shrouded in woodland, separated by winding paths, picnic tables and firepits. There are 22 yurts in all, some small and suitable for two (with room for a travel cot if there is a third wheel in your party) and some larger, which comfortably sleep 5 or 6. All yurts have proper beds, a woodburner to keep you warm on chiller nights, a table and chairs and cooking facilities. A well maintained shower and toilet block is located a short walk from the yurts. If you want a more remote setting for your stay, book a yurt hidden in the woodland, either with one or two neighbours if you travel in a group, or completely on its own in the wilds, perfect for complete seclusion or even….a romantic proposal. And talking of proposals, if the answer is a delighted yes, then why not consider going the whole hog and marrying at Yurtcamp? They are a licensed venue for weddings where you can tie the knot in the thatched pavilion and have a catered reception for up to 140 people. The yurts are surrounded by 40 acres of beautiful woodland and there is plenty of space to explore and walk along one of the many pretty trails; wildlife lovers can keep a lookout out for birds of prey and deer. There is a large field on the site which has been left clear for ball games and general gadding about. Yurtcamp also has table tennis, a playground, a sandpit and a woodland assault course with zipwire, so there is plenty to keep everyone very well entertained. The excellent Woodland Cafe onsite serves meals, Devon cream teas and drinks. There is no real reason to leave this lovely set up, but should you decide to venture into the outside world, you’ll be well rewarded. The Devon coast is only 8 miles down the road and the ancient woodland of Dartmoor National Park is right on the doorstep for hiking, biking and rambling in the wilds. It is well worth a visit to Becky Falls here, a 70 foot waterfall, which offers a great family day out with walking trails, boulder scrambling and even animal encounters. For daredevils, the River Dart Country Park is a ten minute drive away and is a chance to have a go at kayaking, high ropes, climbing and loads of other brilliant activities. If you do take a day trip, make sure you get back to camp in time for some nighttime star gazing. Each yurt has a viewing dome at the centre, so you can light the woodburner, kick back and watch out for shooting stars across the dark Devon sky.
