Our New Favourite!

Wow, what a fabulous CL, now become our new favourite. Very peaceful, lots of space around fully serviced pitches on an immaculately kept site, that the owners obviously take pride in. Terrific short strolls around their own woods and interesting to see what the Beavers create. Access fine, with a large twin axle caravan, with only a couple of cheeky spots with passing places as you near the site. Follow the directions on the website (repeated on their own website) and go via Roadford Resevoir. Do not go via Launceston and approach the site from the west unless you are in a small VW type camper van. Terrific value and we'll definitely try and return.

What a Gem

We had a break over the May Bank holiday. What a find. Peace, tranquility, views, spotless, easy to find and access. Even though the weather was not the best, this site was perfect. It is spotless and very well maintained. We will most definitely return! Thank you

Delightful - Peaceful - Tranquil - Spotless

Venn Farm - totally glorious. The site itself is beautifully well kept. Fantastic facilities for a CL site. Wonderful dog walks - secure paddock and super woods to walk in - along with observing where the Beavers are present - sadly didn’t see any. Owners incredibly helpful and very warming. Good position for visiting other areas of Devon and Cornwall. Will definitely return. Totally 5 star site. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Peaceful Retreat away from it All

Venn Farm is An Excellent Gem of a Site. It is so Well Presented and Maintained to the Highest Standard. The Owner is so Friendly Helpful and on Hand if you should need His Help. The Woodland walk is so magical and full of Dragonflies that Dart and Flit around You. The Wildlife Pond is so Tranquil to sit by. There are signs of the work The Beavers have done, but they are Very Elusive. I can Highly Recommend Venn Farm. The pitches are large and well spaced, with water, EHU & Grey water drain. The sky at night is so amazing on a clear night, with the full galaxy of Stars on View.

3 NIGHTS

An excellent well priced CL with 5 widely spaced and generous hard standing pitches, each with their own fresh water, EHU, grey water disposal, brick bbq and picnic bench. The site has a central track, motorhome service point and good recycling, black water disposal, TV and Wi-Fi. It is surrounded by attractive trees, bushes and fields and includes a private wood to walk around with a dell and stream used by a local beaver colony. A useful trifold leaflet on the site is given on arrival. Peace and ambience make this a great place to chill out for a few days. However, for those like us who don’t drive off-site, the opportunity to explore is limited. There are no bus services and all longer walks involve roads e.g. to the nearest pubs at St Giles on the Heath (1.6 miles) and Ashwater (3.6 miles), which were both closed when we wanted to visit. Two short local footpaths to Virginstow were good but we found the longer footpath from Virginstow to Bradaford and a bridleway that cuts across the top of the Roadford Reservoir to be impassable to all but the most determined. Turning right out of the site, the road to the Roadford Reservoir visitor centre & café (5.4 miles) was good to cycle (carpark £2.50). We used this route to the A30 when we left with our motorhome.

Adults only peaceful site

Excellent site, away from any roads. Large pitches each with EHU, own water tap, drain and a picnic bench! For getting here, make sure you come from the direction of Roadford Lake as this has a better access road. Visited the Beaver colony, didn't see any, but just to see what they have done (dam, trees down etc) is amazing and set in lovely little wood. There are also Llamas to see. Owner friendly and helpful. Contactless check in and information booklet provided upon arrival. Will definitely be visiting again.

A Nature Lovers Place

We had read up about the Beaver colony on this lovely CL so that was the attraction for us. Even though they were elusive their handiwork was obvious! Such an interesting place to visit, we really enjoyed our stay and walks on the 15 acre site. The CL is excellent, with serviced pitches, picnic benches for each pitch, lots of green space and even a drive over motorhome point. Two pitches have good views over the countryside and all the pitches are good. Thank you!

Top Class

Our first visit to Venn Farm and hopefully not our last! This is one of the best CL's we have ever stayed on. The site has fully serviced hardstanding pitches that are not directly overlooked; each one having a picnic table and a huge lawned area. A bird feeder was in view of our kitchen window which was another nice touch. We loved the on site woodland walk and especially sitting on the bench by the brook and pond. Unfortunately we didn't see the resident beavers but enjoyed watching the birdlife and especially a kingfisher! The site is immaculately kept and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We used the route mentioned on the CL owner's website avoiding going through Launceston and we were glad we did. We found it to be very straightforward with easy access from the A30. Owner Andy was very friendly and helpful. Super site!

Beautiful site

This is one of the best CL sites we have visited. Goes the extra mile with your own picnic table. Own grey waste and water tap. Well maintained and very peaceful. Owner was very friendly. Very good value for money. Will return.
