Camping in Tavistock

Being at one with nature is such an invigorating feeling that always leaves you feeling refreshed. Is there any better feeling than sleeping under the stars? Even if you’re sleeping in a caravan or glamping pod as opposed to a tent, you’re still surrounded by unspoilt nature and wildlife. 

 

Camping is definitely an experience that everyone should try at least once in their life, even if you enjoy your home comforts, there’s plenty of ways to enjoy camping without having to give up your necessities for a couple of days. Instead of staying in a tent, you could try sleeping in a caravan or lodge. You’ll still be able to feel the excitement of being so close to nature but you’re still able to have access to electricity for your hairdryer and you won’t have to share the loos or showers with strangers.  

 

Tavistock is fortunate to be situated in such a formidable landscape. Surrounded by rolling hills, ancient woodlands and picturesque valleys you'd be crazy to not want to camp out here! You can fall asleep to the subtle buzzing of insects or wake up to the birds chirping as the sun starts to rise. Is there anything more peaceful than that?  

 

One of the benefits to camping in Tavistock is that you’re far enough from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, but still close enough to the town centre to pick up any amenities or food that you might need. Plus, being a small town, you won’t get the overcrowded feeling that you may experience in the larger cities in England. Of course, there’s also the easy access to Dartmoor as we sit conveniently on the western edge of the moors so you can explore the rest of the great outdoors from your campsite in no time.

Up until 1850 the park was part of the Wheal Union tin mine.  The old mine workings are now the site of the children's play area.  In the 1930s modest camping facilities were established on what was then part of a farm attached to Harford House.  At the beginning of the 1939-45 war the site was requisitioned for war use and a temporary army camp built.  In the late 1940s the camp was cleared and returned to civil use.
