About Chenson Farm
Tucked onto a working organic farm near Devon's heart, Chenson Farm puts you roughly equidistant from Dartmoor and Exmoor – both parks are half an hour away, making this a canny base for serious moorland explorers. The site itself is tiny and peaceful, with a handful of electric grass pitches scattered across 60 acres of pasture and woodland where free-range chickens, pigs and cattle roam. Facilities are straightforward: a clean toilet block with spacious showers, chemical disposal, charging points and a communal fridge for keeping your farmers' market haul cold before the evening barbecue.
Dogs are welcome year-round, and there's no shortage of walking – whether you're threading through the farm's own woods or following riverside trails along the Taw, where kingfishers and otters occasionally show. The owners keep a small library of route maps and are generous with local tips, including the pleasant half-hour stroll to Eggesford Forest. After dark, stick around: minimal light pollution makes for excellent stargazing, assuming Devon's weather obliges.
