Rent-A-Tent Camping

UK England South West England Devon Okehampton Hole Station

  • Sleeps 4 (max 4 adults, 0 children)
  • Dogs Allowed
All you need to bring is your bedding, a toiletry kit, torches and matches for your camp fire. Our pre-erected Rent-A-Tent service was originally designed as an easy introduction to camping for first timers, but it's just as popular with seasoned campers, particularly with returnees who first came here as BYO campers! Maximum 4 persons per pitch.

The Owner Says

The total lack of drama is very appealing, no packing and unpacking marathons, not having to dry wet tents after a bit of rain and so on. All our Rent-A-Tent pitches are in the woods

  • Large kitchen/dining shelter – open fronted, timber walled, with a wooden floor. This is for your exclusive use, it is not a shared facility

  • What do you need to bring? - Bedding, toiletry kit, matches, torches, and anything you want to personalise your Rent-A-Tent pitch. You really can just turn up, put the kettle on and put your feet up.

Nearby

Dartmoor is a 20-minute drive away and the beaches of Bude and Widemouth are a 35–40-minute drive in the opposite direction. You can be standing on a Dartmoor Tor in the morning, swimming in the Atlantic in the afternoon, enjoying dinner in a tucked-away country pub in the evening, and finishing the day sitting gazing into your campfire on site. The area is great for cycling with the nearby Tarka Trail and the Granite Way for off road, and any number of quiet country lanes. If you fancy honing your Robin Hood skills, there’s an archery centre just down the road: Arms of Old (01409 231171). Or Dragon Archery (08000 372466), further afield, has exciting courses – come and have a go at the Agincourt course if you and your bow are up to it.

Food & Drink

Three pubs are within walking distance – the Golden Inn in Highampton (01409 231200) - which does not serve food.
