Down Yonder Yurt & Campsite is a small glamping and camping site on a smallholding in North Devon's Ruby Country. It sits at Halwill near Beaworthy, surrounded by Dexter cattle and sheep, with the Ruby Way bridleway running right past the gate for walking, cycling and riding. There is one yurt for glamping alongside about five electric hook-up pitches and eight non-electric pitches for tents, so it suits campers and glampers who want a genuinely rural, no-frills stay rather than a large park with shops and entertainment. Facilities are kept simple, with a toilet block, showers and an outdoor washing-up area. Dartmoor National Park is around 20 minutes away and the coast at Bude roughly 25, while the fishing lakes at Anglers Paradise are less than five minutes' drive, making the site a good base for anglers, walkers and families after quiet countryside. Dogs are welcome. Down Yonder Yurt & Campsite usually opens from March to October; there is no dedicated website, so contact the site through its Facebook page or by phone to book.
