Budleigh Farm - Self Catering

Our properties have been thoughtfully designed from distinctive granite barns originally built in 1870. With modern comfort, whatever the weather, we guarantee visitors will be warm and cosy. A small campsite operates in the summer.

On the sporting side, visitors can play table tennis or safely swim in our well-maintained heated outdoor pool, which is in use only during the summer months. Budleigh also has facilities for archery and is a centre of excellence for target shooting. We have an expert on hand to teach, and can provide everything for target shooting needs. Archers should bring their own personal equipment, but we provide full range facilities.

At Budleigh Farm sheep and cattle graze over 60 acres of pasture, while our woodland is home to buzzards, squirrels, badgers and foxes. In spring, snowdrops and daffodils fill the valley then later bluebells turn the woods to a smoky haze. Dartmoor is a haven of wildlife.

Walkers can join our local ramblers club on regular outings; its members are very welcoming to visitors. There are self-guided town and country trails to follow. Moretonhampstead’s unique letterbox trail leads through leafy lanes, along farm tracks and over stiles. Cars and bicycles can be left on the farm with complete confidence of safety. Our local small town, half a mile away, is a busy community with an interesting mix of people, shops and trades. Artists and craftsmen exhibit in small galleries. There is a range of pubs and cafes in the town, traditional shops, a first class butcher and delicatessen and a small supermarket.

Bus services leave Moretonhampstead for Exeter and Newton Abbot. You can hop on and off the Newton Abbot bus at the bottom of our drive. An open top double decker travels across Dartmoor to Plymouth in summer – it’s the best way to view the moor.
