South Town Camping

South Town Farm, Loxhore, Barnstaple, Devon EX31 4SS     07425 772 249

South Town is a very small, relaxed, friendly site ideal for couples and families.  Our car free camp fields make for a peaceful, relaxing place for grown ups and a safe place for children to play and explore.

As a family of committed campers ourselves, our aim is to create the kind of site we prefer to visit. Our campsite, like our farm, is extensive with just 10 pitches over 6 acres and is run with an eco ethic and a respect for nature.  Our generously sized pitches are very well spaced, mown into wild flower meadows with mown paths leading to each pitch. All pitches enjoy uninterrupted views of woodland and meadows, we have super sunset views to the west and, on a clear night South Town is a great place to enjoy a starry sky.  Leave your car in the carpark and use our super sized wheelbarrows to transport your kit a short distance across our level fields to your chosen pitch.  South Town is an off grid site so please remember to pack a reliable torch!   We can freeze your ice blocks for you and supply logs for your campfire.

Take a short adventure following our farm trail across fields through a wild wood and across a stream.  For longer walks the Arlington Estate offers miles of foot paths and bridleways through stunning woodland straight from your tent.  Enjoy an evening by the camp fire, watch bats and maybe spot a hedgehog out hunting for worms – there is plenty for the budding naturalist to explore.
