Lakemoor Campsite

Lakemoor Campsite is a small, eco-minded site on a working smallholding beside the River Taw, near Chulmleigh and Chawleigh in North Devon. The camping meadow runs down to the river, backed by trees and set up for starlit campfires, which is the main draw of this quiet mid-Devon spot. There is family camping on grass, around ten hardstanding touring and campervan pitches with electric hook-ups and drinking water, and an adults-only glamping area next to the lake for anyone who wants the tent ready on arrival. Campfires are allowed, and the friendly hosts, farm animals and general peace come up again and again in guest reviews. Facilities are simple and clean, including compost toilets in the camping field and hot showers, so this suits campers happy with a natural, low-key setup rather than those wanting a shop, pool or bar. Wild swimming, stargazing and river walks are on the doorstep, with Eggesford Forest and the Tarka Trail nearby and the North Devon coast within driving distance. Lakemoor works best for couples, families and small groups after a genuine slice of rural Devon. Note the single shower blocks can feel tight at full capacity, so booking ahead is wise as this Chulmleigh site is popular and compact.
