Delightful place to stay

Everything about this site matched perfectly what we like to find. The area, the views, the quiet, the facilities. It's always the case that a quiet hideaway has slightly intricate access, but this was fine. Definitely one we'd like to return to.

Beautiful views and very peaceful

We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of August. Very peaceful site with beautiful countryside views for miles. The pitches are generous but you will need levelling ramps. The shower/ toilet facilities and dish washing area was always spotlessly clean. They also have a washing machine and tumble dryer with honesty box for use. We found it a good base for going out exploring. We visited Sidmouth, Lyme Regis and charmouth when there. The cows in the field right in front of our pitch were a delight to watch and very friendly and nosy as they came to see us everytime we returned back after a day out. The complete silence at night was such a bonus too. We followed the instructions for getting there and some areas were pretty tight but thankfully we didn’t meet anything coming the other way. This site is a little gem, we loved it so much we have already rebooked for November.

A gem

Peaceful, gorgeous views and a proper shower room and loo to use, we loved it! The shower was a very reasonable £1.50 a go, considering the unlimited hot water and the fact you had a proper room to use, not a drafty stall, we thought that this was well worth it. A pleasant quiet road walk into Broadhembury which is a delightful "chocolate box" village, gives you access to a post office selling food essentials and the pub snug is a brilliant bakery, so no need to go far for food. A great base to explore Devonshire or just sit and relax watching the cattle.

Simply the Best

Paul and Lorna have a most beautifully situated, spacious and peaceful site in a wonderful part of the country on the edge of the Blackdown Hills. The views from the site, as far as Dartmoor are outstanding with the most amazing sunsets. The welcome is warm but not intrusive and the facilities are well maintained and always clean. Lunch or an evening meal at The Drewe a 20 minute walk or 5 minute drive away is not to be missed. I agree with the previous reviewer that the access is not a problem. Yes, the approach road is narrow in places, as are most roads in Devon and yes, there are some potholes, as there are in most places nationwide. I don’t recognise “ high uncut hedges and banks …. with grass and moss growing up the centre in places”, or uncut hedges to the on-site access road, which itself is very short and clearly signed. Whilst we only have a campervan we cycle a lot from the site in all directions in the surrounding area and do notice the details of roads.

Excellent and Tranquil CL

We have been visiting Beer Farm now for 3 years several times a year which has included Christmas and New Year twice, as our son lives locally. It is such a beautiful peaceful site, Paul and Lorna are very welcoming but not intrusive. We love waking up to the cattle in the fields coming to say hello in the morning and at different times during the day, don't worry they don't disturb you they just like to say hello when they see you or our dog Freddy. The toilet's and other facilities are clean and tidy, although we mainly use our own. There are lots of different area's to visit including Exeter, Quantock Hills, Exmouth and the Donkey Sanctuary at Sidmouth is a must visit with your dog, they have a lovely restaurant which is also dog friendly and a shop onsite, it is free admission but remember to leave a donation which is of course optional. There is Fordmore Farm shop just down the road which does lovely breakfasts and the local pub The Drew Arms is a must for Sunday Lunch or Christmas meal. The previous review mentioned access to the site, however if you follow the CC site advice and enter via Broadhembury we have never had any issues with the roads, yes some parts are narrow but this is the countryside, and yes there are some potholes but that is the same for most of the country so please don't be put off by the previous review as you will miss out on this lovely site! (We have a 25ft caravan). The views from the site are beautiful and it's a very peaceful place to visit, we have even managed to have spectacular fireworks displays on New Years Eve as you can see for miles, but no noise which was great as Freddy doesn't like them so it's a great escape if you have a nervous dog. This site will not disappoint those who are looking for peace and quite!

Very nice site, but appalling access roads

This is a very pleasant CL with good facilities and great views. The owners are very welcoming and friendly. Sloping pitches so levelling ramps are recommended. Unfortunately the approach roads to the site from both east and west are appalling bad. Narrow twisting roads littered with potholes, enclosed by high uncut hedges and banks and with grass and moss growing up the centre in places. Even the hedges on either side of the on-site access road were high and untrimmed. All leading to overworked suspension and multitudes of scratches and scrapes along both sides of our motorhome. Much as we liked the site we’re unlikely to return.

Peaceful & beautiful location

We stayed for 2 nights at this fab CL. So peaceful with great far reaching views. Easy access and very well organised. Friendly welcome from Paul and Lorna. Would definitely recommend if you want to a tranquil location with walks on the doorstep and a great pub (The Drewe Arms) within walking distance.
