A campsite near Great Torrington
About Winscott Camping
Surrounded by the lush countryside of North Devon, Winscott Camping is a small, intimate site that draws families and environmentally conscious campers with its genuine low-impact ethos. Spacious pitches spread across a large field give kids oodles of room to roam, while the electricity-free setup—composting toilets, gas-powered shower, solar fairy lights—lends a touch of wild camping without sacrificing comfort. An honesty shop stocks logs and firelighters for the pre-bookable firepit, and those impeccably maintained facilities earn glowing praise from visitors.
A 10-minute drive from Great Torrington, the site makes an excellent base for exploring North Devon's coast (Instow, Clovelly, Westward Ho! all half an hour away) and Dartmoor (45 minutes), though you might not venture far: the Tarka Trail lies a 10-minute walk away, and woodland trails at Meeth Quarry beckon within quarter of an hour. Pack battery torches and make peace with going phone-free—the spectacular starry skies are reward enough.

What visitors say
Quintessentially Devon. Small site set in beautiful countryside. There's space for 5 tents in meadow or a couple of smaller vans under trees and we had the place to ourselves. Strong eco credentials. Compost loos very clean. Hot shower. Wet weather room. Owners are nice people who're doing the right thing

A group of 5 of us, cycle touring had a great night at this lovely campsite. Shaun and Katie are a very lovely dynamic and funny couple. They were very flexible, the shower and toilets were spotless. We had the campsite to ourselves and it was super peaceful. Love this type of small campsite with only a few pitches and no noise road around. Would stay again.
