Five Wyches Farm Campsite

Five Wyches Farm Campsite is a small, family-run site on the edge of Dartmoor just outside Bovey Tracey in Devon, about a mile from the granite tor at Haytor. It leans into a wilder, back-to-basics feel: a sheltered field ringed by trees, room for only around ten tent pitches and five caravans, and a fire pit on each pitch with logs available to buy. The practical amenities are covered, with fresh water, electric hookups, an eco-friendly toilet, a hot shower and chemical and grey waste points, so it lands somewhere between wild camping and a full facility site. It suits walkers, cyclists, nature lovers and dog owners (dogs are welcome), plus families who like the idea of a proper campfire, but it is not the spot for anyone wanting a big park with shops, pools or evening entertainment. For a softer stay there are glamping bell tents strung with fairy lights and a Romany caravan. The location is handy: the National Trust's Parke estate, with woodland trails and a cafe, sits next door, the open moor is a mile up the road, and the South Devon coast is roughly eight miles away.
