Now we are closed for the season my pace of life has gone from frenetic to almost standstill; my Sunday chores included topping up the chicken and sheep food and stroking my favourite sheep! #slowsunday #dogwalks #jacobsheep #landrover

Too soon or not soon enough?! Tree up in Totnes tonight so it must be ok to start watching those Netflix Christmas movies.…. ”Girl with big city job gives it all up to take over her family farm and sets up a Glamping site. Old boyfriend who runs an organic cheese farm next door, starts a pop-up rival Yurt site and steals her cassoulet recipe…” I’d watch that movie 🎄 🍿!! #itsbeginingtolookalotlikechristmas

Good bye; we will miss you! We are now closed for the season and we will re-open again in the Spring. Thank you to everyone that visited us this year and to the wonderful Brownscombe team, who worked their socks off to make everything gorgeous but never stopped smiling! Like Santa’s elves we will be working behind the scenes and have exciting news for the New Year! #luxuryglampingdevon #glampingdevon

Is this the best Autumn dog walk in Devon?Castle Drogo to Fingle Bridge Inn circular walk c4.5 miles; felt longer on the uphill stretches but a slap up cream tea at the pub half way round, helped to propel us up the final incline! Views across Dartmoor and walking among ancient oaks and along the river - Labrador heaven ❤️🍂10/10 #finglebridge #castledrogo #devonglamping

❤️2025 BOOKINGS!❤️ If you stayed with us this year and talked to me about rebooking for next year when you were leaving, then you should have received a booking email today. If you haven’t received it, then please get in touch to book (we will honour 2024 prices for you). Also we have released a couple of new dates for Easter 2025 that were previously booked up. Just 3 more weeks to go of our 2024 season if you are feeling spontaneous!! #devonglamping #luxuryglamping #somethingtolookforwardto❤️

As the sun sets on our Summer season I would like to thank all the guests old and new that visited us. The children kept me smiling on farmers rounds and we have had many memorable pizza nights. Thanks to the Brownscombe team for all their hard work keeping our site and accommodation in tip top condition. Autumn is a perfect time to visit us if you would prefer a peaceful couples getaway and from 1st October most of the beaches allow dogs. 📸Hannah who stayed in Bovey this August #autumnglamping #couplesgetaway #devonglamping

If you have stayed at Brownscombe you will know ho

If you have stayed at Brownscombe you will know how much we strive to make sure that you have a wonderful holiday, but the one thing I can’t control is the weather! Last year we closed the Safari Tents in September, as I was worried about the unpredictable winds and temperature in October. In the past we have had some glorious half terms when it has been mild, dry and very halloweeny! So this year I have just opened up our Tent bookings for October but if you don’t fancy the weather with a week to go before your booking, or we think it is too cold or wet for you; we will give you a 100% no quibble refund for your holiday. So if you want to book, it is available, there will be pizza’s and pumpkin carving over half term and we would love to see you 🎃🍕🦉🦇 #lasthurrah #octoberhalfterm #familyholiday #devonglamping

Brilliant afternoon mackerel fishing with our nephews in Brixham; a seal in the harbour was the icing on the cake. The only drawback is that I have to cook the mackerel for tea! #brixhamseal #devonglamping #mackerelfishing

How have I lived in Devon for the last 10 years and not been to @no7fishbistro in Torquay 🤷🏻‍♀️Had a fabulous farewell meal for my lovely sister Penny who lives in Rome. Highly recommended to our guests and only 5 miles from Brownscombe with spectacular views over Torbay. It’s going in our App tomorrow! #fishrestaurants #torbay #devonglamping

Happy wedding anniversary to my long suffering hus

Happy wedding anniversary to my long suffering husband Andrew! He still has a real job in London, which he points out every time I ask him for help fixing things, heavylifting or help with Pizza night! We were married at Brownscombe over 30 years ago and how lovely that we have welcomed a couple on their honeymoon here today. Thanks to the @theangeldartmouth for a slap up lunch and if you want to plan your own romantic break in Devon this Autumn, we have good availability in our Cabins and a couples offer in our Safari Tents #anniversary #couplesbreak #minimoon #couplesretreat #devonglamping

Having had summery glimpses, I am still keeping everything crossed for ☀️this summer. If it does rain there is still plenty to do at Brownscombe; book private dining in our Lodge, a relaxing treatment in the Welllness room, challenge the kids to a ping pong tournament or hide in the barn and sneak in some WiFi! We have just one tent free with an electric hot tub on 19th July for 3 nights and on 30th August for 3 nights, otherwise plenty of availability in September #devonglamping #luxuryglamping #wellness
