Are you yearning for a peaceful getaway amidst the breathtaking landscapes of East Devon's designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty? Bowhayes Farm offers the perfect backdrop for a serene glamping experience. Set within a 15-acre cider orchard, our pop-up site boasts the simplest of pleasures—fostering a connection with nature, complemented by beautiful trails, idyllic cycle routes, and a stunning coastal vista just a stone’s throw away.
 

With a select number of pre-erected bell tents, intimacy and seclusion are guaranteed. Delight in the privacy of your own space, with each pitch meticulously placed over 50 metres apart. Our spacious 5-meter bell tents are sanctuaries of comfort, each featuring a sumptuous king-size bed complete with soft bedding, snug seating areas for relaxation, and extra blankets for those cooler nights. As dusk falls, the glow of battery-powered lanterns and the twinkle of fairy lights add a touch of enchantment to your stay.
 

Savour the warmth of the ‘Devon Firepit’, an inviting centrepiece for memorable evenings spent sharing stories and gazing at the stars. With an ample supply of firewood, the gentle crackle of logs and the soft light of the fire will be your companions into the night. Surrounded by the hushed whispers of the orchard, you’ll find yourself in a wildlife sanctuary, far removed from the hustle of traffic, where the only sounds are the natural serenades of the countryside.
 

While our glamping retreat embraces the rustic charm of the outdoors without on-site cooking facilities, self-catering adventurers can bring their own equipment to whip up meals under the open sky. For your convenience, our farm café offers a selection of basic provisions, while the nearby farm shop and local pub in Tipton present a delightful assortment of local fare, just a brief drive or a pleasant stroll away.

Beautiful countryside farm
What is not to like...sitting around a fire pit under the stars. Listening to the owls in the privacy of a beautiful apple orchard with the only other sounds being the gentle plop of the apples dropping intermittently. The tent and facilities have been very well thought out, great bathroom with posh shower, a camp kitchen with all you need to cook a meal or make tea. And to cap it all the hosts super friendly and very passionate about what they do.

Absolutely lovely stay
We stayed at 10 campsites this summer and this went straight into our top 3 ! The orchard itself is lovely, huge pitches - we felt like we were literally the only ones there ! Toilets and shower are great, and the little shop is absolutely perfect. Most of all Howard and Fiona are so welcoming, helpful and kind it was a joy to stay at this campsite ! Great location too - could not recommend more.

Delightful small camp site with lovely hosts in a picturesque setting
Loved the large amount of space between pitches and that it's such a small camp site. The owners are really nice and friendly, driving us to and from our camping spot with our camping our gear in his 4x4 which was a lovely unexpected bonus. It's a lovely quiet place surrounded by greenery, a lovely place to get out into nature. we very much enjoyed our time here and the town was only a relatively short walk away which was equally as delightful.

We loved our stay at Bowhayes Farm!
The location is so peaceful and it is great to be able to stay within the trees of the apple orchard. Howard and Fiona are such welcoming and friendly hosts, who gave us loads of great recommendations for the local areas pubs and walks. We will definitely be returning and have already recommended to all our friends and family. Poppy & Dan

A great glamping experience in a very peaceful location
We stayed in the bell tents for a long weekend with our family in August and had a brilliant time. The tents withstood a very windy day, and were great to stay in with comfortable beds and duvets. The kitchen has a nice view over the local area and the bathroom is uniquely placed inside a horse box - but is very smart, with plenty of hot water and an excellent shower. The area is extremely peaceful and is a great place to relax.

A fantastic and quiet site
A fantadtic and quiet site, we had such a relaxing time with lots of space and picturesque views. The utilities were great, especially the shower. All staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, even making a fuss over our dogs. We will definitely be staying again. An ideal spot if you want to unwind and get away from the world for a while.
