Longmeadow Farm is a family-run working sheep farm with a campsite just under a mile from the coastal village of Shaldon in South Devon. Anne and Hannah run the place at Ringmore, above the Teign Estuary, where grass pitches look across the water and Devon's rolling hills, with electric hook-ups available and dogs welcome. Alongside simple camping there are shepherd's huts for glamping and self-catering accommodation, so the farm suits tent campers, first-time glampers and anyone who wants animals about; sheep, goats, pigs and miniature Shetland ponies all live on site. Shaldon village, its beach and local amenities are within walking distance, the South West Coast Path is easy to reach, and Exeter, Torquay and Dartmoor are all a short drive away for days out. The setting is genuinely rural and the camping is kept straightforward, so anyone chasing a big entertainment complex or a poolside park should look elsewhere. Families and couples who want a quiet farm base near the sea will feel at home. The campsite at Longmeadow Farm typically opens for the season around early April, with the 2026 season starting on 3 April, and booking is by phone or email direct with the farm. Bring walking boots for the estuary paths and the coast around Shaldon.
