Exe Valley Glamping

Hidden amongst 150 acres of family farmland in beautiful Devon, you’ll find Exe Valley Glamping. This safari tent glamping break is one of our most sustainable stays being off-grid, solar powered and even the ground water is filtered. But it’s still luxurious with cottagecore interiors, proper beds and sofas, rainfall showers, cooking and dining areas and elevated verandas to maximise those country views. We also love the fun features like the swings under the verdada and den for kids.

After a day out exploring, retreat to these safari tents – that are powered using green energy generated from the farm – and relax in comfort, cosy up round the fire pit or take a dip in your own private hot tub. Extras such as afternoon teas and massages are also available to book here.
