Fabulous Devon site

Great site with views over the rolling hills of Devon. So quiet and peaceful. Great walks from site and owner Jane is lovely. Stayed a couple of weeks last year and went back for another couple of weeks in August this year! Adult only. Large pitches, would highly recommend!

Lovely base to explore the area

Stayed here for 6 nights in June. Had a choice of pitches so chose the left hand side so could see views over the fields and grazing sheep (this side also had the sun longer). Was greeted by Jane in her golf buggy with a useful welcome pack and our own food waste bucket which was lovely. Close to Tesco (turn left out of site) for your groceries and also on the way in at a finger signpost free-range eggs for sale (ÂŁ1 a half dozen). We like to explore the local area and went out and about alot. Cycled to Fremington Quay (you need electric bikes as caravan site is at the top of the hill down, so consequently very steep coming back). Interesting sunday bagettes at the cafe, we shared a yummy veggie nut roast with potatoes and gravy (lots of carbs and no veg), followed by my favourite matrimonial cake (date and oats) as the portions were very large. You can access the Tarka Trail here which we did start to cycle along but rain stopped play, so we set off back to the site! Appledore lovely fishing village with red fish truck on the quay supplied every day by the red fishing boat infront (very reasonable fresh fish). We returned here on Monday night as during the summer the brass band plays for free on the quay 7.45-9pm. You can catch a ferry here to Instow if the tides are in your favour. Had a lovely meal in Instow Boat Shed. Drove to NT Baggy Point for a walk along the cliffs and Arlington Court. Lovely walk along Westwood Ho! beach parked at Burrows Country Park (ÂŁ6 a day). NB If you are going for a shorter time park in Westwood Ho! as can pay by the hour instead. In all a lovely site, I can see why people return here and stay for long periods of time.

Superb!

Just returned from Pyewell Farm after eight nights. We loved it! Lots of room on the site & lovely views across the rolling Devonshire hills. Site directions were straightforward & access was easy. This is a quiet, peaceful site. It's well located for visiting the North Devon coast. We visited Instow & Saunton Sands during our stay. Fremington Quay is just a short drive away where you can pick up the Tarka Trail with Barnstaple in one direction & Bideford in the other. Jane, the CL owner, was very welcoming & friendly. Thank you for a lovely stay Jane!

Beautiful

What a beautiful site, a site of two halves. The actual site is surrounded by rolling hills studded with lambs and sheep with lots of wabbits and even Partridges on site. A stoll through the farm yard takes you to Shangri-la with lakes, rhododendrons and beautiful established trees. So peaceful and relaxing. What a wonderful ten day stay.

A Fab find

A lovely warm welcome by Jane, all explained in her welcome pack. So much to see and marvel, we discovered a really great wet fishmonger, Devon and Cornwall fishery in Appledore, super friendly and helpful guys, with great fresh fish 🐠 . A great place to explore from and return to peace and tranquility, thanks Jane, you’re in our faves now

Off the beaten track!

A narrow approache to this site which has good views, well cut grass and friendly owners. Recycling is in operation. In an area with plenty of places to visit, walk and cycle. Bideford is the nearest town with supermarkets selling fuel and a choice of other shops and eating places Barnstaple is in the opposite direction (is bigger than Bideford) and calling at Fremington Quay with its cafe is worth a visit. Westward Ho! is known for its surf and the Pebble Ridge there are also small supermarkets, fish and chips and Hockings icecreams!!

A beautiful CL. A complete gem.

Pyewell Farm CL has magnificent views over some of the hills of North Devon. You can walk though the farmyard down to 3 fishing lakes. There are walking paths around the fishing lakes, up into the woods and onto the sheep fields. Jane and Bunty are fabulous CL owners and we particularly enjoyed Jane sharing the details of the 16th century farmhouse with us, complete with ghost stories! We kept an eye out, but never encountered the ghosts! We have visited many CLs in the years we have been caravanning and this was one of the best we have visited. Fantastic views with excellent hosts, we left Pyewell Farm CL refreshed and relaxed. Thank you Jane & Bunny.

Highly recommended CL

After 3 months of self isolation from the Covid virus, my wife and I needed a change of scenery. We could not have chosen a more suitable site than the one at Pyewell Farm which is peaceful with lovely scenery. We had a warm welcome from Jane the site owner who helped us with our enquiries about places to visit. It was very windy when we arrived and as the CL site is exposed to the prevailing winds, Jane allowed us to use a hardstanding on a lower site near one of the lakes which was delightful. We shall look forward to staying there again later this year.

A delightful CL with wonderful views of the Devon hills, with sheep grazing. The field is good, with a sort of flower-bed in the middle giving you a modicum of privacy - there was only one other van there. We were warmly welcomed, and enjoyed our night there very much, especially as a friend recommended we visit Fremingham Quay next day.... ,
