The Owner Says

Iglulu is our brand new, unique glamping igloo with a spacious, unusual, futuristic feel. We wanted something completely different at Hideaway, we were playing around with ideas then spotted a white dome in a field. We found out it was a calf igloo and in a moment of madness bought two! Then the fun began and we slowly transformed the structure into iglulu. Iglulu has a solid oak double bed, cooker, heating, solar powered lighting and bean bags to chill out on. It lives in our 4 acre camping field which has stunning views, a stone circle and plenty of privacy. You can relax around your own fire pit, eat alfresco and watch the shooting stars across the vast sky.

Iglulu is ideal for a couple or a family wanting something a bit different. It would have been a home for up to fifteen calves and is now a holiday experience for up to four humans! Everything you need is provided - you just need to pack your clothes and toiletries to enjoy an alternative glamping holiday!

Activities

The top of the campsite's track meets a bridleway which runs through countryside from Okehampton to Holsworthy. It makes for a pleasant walk or cycling route directly from the site. The castle in Okehampton is a worthy destination too. It's the largest castle remains in Devon (03703 331181), set on a wooded spur above the rushing River Okement. It was originally a stone keep, built after the Norman conquest, but was transformed into a residence for the Earl of Devon in the 1300s. There is a riverside picnic area and beautiful woodland walks nearby. From Okehampton, it's easy to dive into Dartmoor National Park for walking, mountain biking and more. Visit Lydford Gorge (01822 820320), the deepest gorge in the South West with a spectacular 30m waterfall, or climb up the banks of impressive Meldon Reservoir. In the opposite direction it's an 35-minute drive to Bude and the beaches of the North Devon and Cornwall coast.

Food & Drink

The campsite is at the end of a long, private track, so it's a bit of a shlep to find the nearest pub. It's just under 4 miles to the excellent Clovelly Inn (01837 871447) in Bratton Clovelly but most things can be covered in Okehampton, including a superb fish and chippie (Kempley's Catch; 01837 52503). There are also 3 supermarkets, a butchers, grocers and newsagents, amongst other independent stores.
