Just a stone’s throw from Dartmoor National Park, the village of Ugborough is perfectly situated for you to explore the beautiful South Devon countryside. With the famously unspoilt beaches of the South Hams a short drive away, Brackenhill Glamping offers the ideal location for a family holiday to remember.
The 1.5 acre glamping field lies in a peaceful location on the edge of the village with views across the valley and of the beautiful church known locally as ‘the cathedral of the South Hams’.
The tents have a fully equipped kitchen with electric hob, fridge, kettle and toaster. There is a log burner to keep you warm on cool evenings and leather sofas with cosy blankets to relax on. The bathroom is en-suite so no chilly dash to the loo in the night!
Outside there is a covered deck w...

Spontaneous break away
So with a last minute decision to get away for a few nights we stumbled across Brackenhill Glamping. From the offset we received quick responses to any questions or queries we had, along with a few stunning photos of Dartmoor where we planned to go each day. We decided to book for 3 nights and once confirmed we were sent an email confirmation including an extensive list of all the amenities within the glamping tent (WOW.. they really do go above and beyond with what’s included inside the tents)!!
As we arrived (easy to find) we were greeted with a warm welcome and after explaining a little about the area and what they had to offer on site (honesty shop, washing and drying facilities, recycling) we were pointed in the direction of our glamping tent. We were in the bottom tent (Slow Worm!). As I opened up the ‘door’ I was amazed. The whole place was so lovely decorated and had everything you could possibly need during your stay. The attention to detail inside the glamping tent was second to none and on top of that everything provided was really good quality - hot water bottle on each bed with a towel underneath, tea and coffee, warm blankets, quality bedding, hairdryer, maps for Dartmoor with an informative welcome pack, lovely warm shower and… wine glasses!! Along with much much more! For those with their four legged friends🐕, like us, they get their own dog bed with a water and food bowl with two treats included 😍🐶
For those who want more of a camping experience there is a fantastic fire pit and BBQ out the front of the decking, and for those who maybe want more of an easy cooking experience (possibly after a long day walking like us) the conventional oven inside is great. After roasting some marshmallows on the fire pit you can go back inside as it gets darker to get the inside ‘glamping’ fire going 🔥 let’s just say we were never cold!! If you run out of logs don’t worry, the honesty shop is fully prepared with extra logs, fire lighters and kindling along with many other items. They really have thought of it all ☺️
Dartmoor is basically on your doorstep, which was perfect for us. Being up at the crack of dawn watching the sunrise with a coffee whilst planning a long walk over Dartmoor was perfect and knowing that after our walk we were coming back to the Glamping tent was bliss - having a nice warm shower before sitting on the decking with a glass of wine (or two) to unwind! I have to say for the middle of October we were VERY lucky with the weather, and being able to look up at the starts at night was magical. However, if we were to have had rain the decking area is all covered so could sit outside come rain or shine.
Our whole ‘Glamping experience’ is definitely not one we will forget.. and yes we would most definitely rebook for next year (or next week)!
I would fully recommend Brackenhill Glamping, whether it is for a romantic get away, a family adventure or a get together with friends, it is the perfect place to relax and unwind. You won’t be disappointed 😁

Exceeded expectations!
We booked Bracknehill after having to cancel a group holiday to France and it didn't disappoint. From the moment we arrived, Simon greeted us and was really friendly and helpful showing us all around and giving us some info on the local area. He even kindly lent us some books.
We stayed in the Slow Worm tent for 7 nights, which felt secluded and like we were on our own in the pretty meadow its situated in. The meadow itself is beautiful, full of flowers, birds and wildlife. Amazing to wake up and go to sleep to.
We were lucky enough to have great weather so made good use of the fire pit and BBQ every night, we even used the Potjie pot to cook in over the fire pit which was a new experience for us all.
The tent is self is spacious and full of everything you need (we bought our own cocktail shaker :) which is a necessity for our group! The shower was great, plenty of hot water and powerful. There's a box full of games, we all enjoyed a game of Boules
with a glass of bubbles most afternoons.
We found it was roughly a 25-30 min drive to all the places we wanted to go, beautiful drives through Devon ending up at various beaches, fish shacks and pretty little towns.
In terms of value for money Brackenhill is excellent, we're looking forward to coming back and think we'll book both tents next time!
Thank you Simon and Alex for a wonderful time!!
Amber and the gang.

Wonderful!
We had the most wonderful long weekend. The tents were amazing, such comfortable beds and loads of little extras. The honesty shop had everything you could ever need and more! The boys loved the mud kitchen and the stream. The ship inn gave us a beautiful meal. Alex and Simon were wonderful hosts and it felt like nothing was too much trouble. The cakes were amazing- thank you!

Glamping Perfection
We have just spent 3 nights at Brackenhill Glamping. What an amazing weekend we had. The weather wasn’t quite up to usual May standards but we didn’t have to worry. The log burner kept us warm at night and plenty of fire-wood available at the honesty shop. The duvets in the bedrooms were really toasty and extra blankets also on the beds, along with hot water bottles. In the evening when the weather allowed, we kept warm by the fire-pit.
The tent was immaculate and small touches such as the dog bed and dog treat made everyone feel welcome.
The bathroom was spotless and the shower better than ours at home.
Games that were available to use were enjoyed by us and the kids.
And what a view!!!
Highly recommended.

Lovely little corner of England
Brackenhill Glamping is located in a lovely little corner of England. Safari tent was very comfortable for our family of five. Well equipped, comfortable beds and warm shower. Children enjoyed exploring the little stream and running off their energy in the field. Breakfast on the BBQ, s’mores on the fire pit and cold G&T while the church bells ring in 10pm! Very helpful and friendly hosts. Just perfect for a quiet get away with two local pubs down the hill. Highly recommend.

Brackenhill - near perfection
If a holiday home could come close to perfection, Brackenhill might just be it. The setting (the view across the valley
and the hills behind, with the church tower at its centre) is stunning; the seclusion (the field is overlooked only by buzzards by day and bats at night) is both calming and deeply affecting; the safari tent itself is an aesthetically beautiful thing, but also practical - spacious, sturdy, comfortable and spotlessly clean; the family who own and run the site are the very best of people, attentive but never intrusive, they genuinely want you to love the place as they do and go the extra mile to make it so.
As for practicalities, the facilities in the tent are excellent and there is a wood burner within and fire-pit without; parking is safe, spacious and easy, the honesty shop is a godsend (the village at the bottom of the hill has two pubs but no shop), and Ugborough is perfectly placed between the moors and the sea. We will definitely be coming back, again and again.
