The site strikes a lovely balance between seclusion and comfort, with well-appointed facilities including showers, toilets and drinking water, all kept to a high standard. Open year-round, it's particularly popular with those wanting to explore Dartmoor's dramatic landscapes without sacrificing creature comforts at day's end.

What visitors say
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an absolutely wonderful stay in this glamping safari tent. The tent was beautifully presented, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing break. It offered the perfect balance of being close to nature while still enjoying all the comforts of home. The surroundings were peaceful and picturesque, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. The children absolutely loved the fire pit, especially toasting marshmallows in the evenings, which made for some fantastic family memories. The hot tub was another highlight of our stay – perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring and taking in the beautiful surroundings. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the attention to detail throughout the accommodation really stood out. The hosts were welcoming, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We couldn't have asked for a better glamping experience and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and relaxing getaway. We can't wait to return!

Just had a wonderful stay at Sunsets and Marshmallows. The safari tents are a home from home, Nicola and Chris have thought of everything, with a few little treats for us including some fizz on arrival. Watching the sunset from the hot tub every evening was amazing and lots to explore locally. Highly recommended 😊

Our first glamping experience, wow!!! Sunsets and Marshmallows has set the bar incredibly high. The setting is very peaceful, surrounded by rolling countryside, each tent has a large private garden and there are communal areas for you to use (handy for walking our dog). The hot tub and fire pit were both used extensively, it was so nice to spend the evenings outside. With only three pitches it feels very private. The accommodation itself is excellent, everything is modern and to a high standard. The tent is extremely spacious. The decor was lovely, the beds comfortable and the living space/kitchen/lounge/veranda gave you plenty of seating options . The owners, Nicola and Chris were really lovely hosts. The welcome pack of food and drink was really good, personalised to your own taste! I can't recommend Sunset & Marshmallows highly enough!

Well what can I say we needed time away as a family and sunset and marshmallows didn't disappoint. The attention to detail is amazing and the safari tent is like a home away from home. The beds are super comfy and you feel lovely and cosy. The water bottles are a bonus as it did get cold at night. The hot tub was a real hit with my boys and Chris topped it up everyday. I can't fault our stay in anyway as everything is thought of and the little extra touches like fresh flowers makes it feel so welcoming. Also the bacon was so yummy. I hope we can come back one day. Thank you Nicola and Chris
