    Just need to make sure to bring some warm layers as it gets cold at night even in the summer heat- though there are plenty of things to keep you warm in the bus itself.

    Such a brilliant holiday! The set up at Dartmoor Reach is amazing. Such a lovely place to hang out with the family, the alpacas and all the other animals. The bus is pretty spacious and works really well. We took our toddler and baby and fit travel 2 cots in fine. Location wise, it was really easy to get into Dartmoor with Haytor rocks really close plus lovely Bovey Tracey and pretty easy to get to the coast. There is so much to do in the area.

    There was nothing i didn’t like about the property.

    Stayed here for the last weekend in June with my Son and Grandson. We really enjoyed staying on the bus. It was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable as were the toilet/shower facilities. There was unlimited Tea and Sugar provided and even washing up liquid. Also there was everything you needed within easy reach to cook a meal even though we didn’t bother because we ate out in Bovey Tracey. There was a brilliant rope swing chair on an ancient Oak tree that my Grandson couldn’t get enough of which kept him busy. The farm is in a gorgeous setting and being amongst the Alpacas and animals was a real treat. I met one of the owners Natalie, she was lovely.She made us feel very welcome and couldn’t do enough for us. I would recommend this place especially if you have young children.

    We loved everything.

    Loved everything about this property. My son is on the autistic spectrum and is obsessed with buses so being able to stay on a double decker bus that he could sit behind the wheel and pretend to drive was fabulous. We spend many weekends away on different sites ( usually camping/ glamping ) he said this was the best place he’s ever stayed. He also loves Jeremy clarksons farm so to be able to feed all the animals was wonderful to him. Best weekend we have had in a long time. Beds were so comfortable we slept like logs the entire weekend. Josh and Natalie are lovely people who make you feel at ease immediately, I cannot wait to return.

    Nothing. Perhaps you could consider supplying a few of your goodies as a welcome gift eg bread, butter, milk and marmalade.

    A unique experience. The bus was very well laid out for living, cooking, dining and sleeping. My two teenage lads loved everything about it. The location was so peaceful and private. The shower and toilet were surprisingly good.it had everything we needed. Josh and Natalie were very friendly and helpful

    What a beautiful hidden away treasure. For anyone wanting to get away from everything and return to nature, enjoy the simple things and the peace. A wonderful family holiday that the kids will remember forever, It was such an experience to stay on an Alpaca farm on a double-decker bus. Lots of little hidden areas of play for younger kids, like a swing, mud kitchen area, and play area - special. The honesty shop was great, we paid for the BBQ bits on one night and got some animal food to feed the Alpaca. Close to a lot of attractions and nearby beautiful walks. Josh was very welcoming and gave us all the information we would need when we arrived. I have already recommended it to family and friends and would stay again.

    What wasn't there to like it was brilliant

    This was so unique! Alpacas that ate out our hands, pigs to feed, baby ducks, chickens my 6 year old loved it. Could sit in the bus seat and pretend to be a driver which he absolutely loved. Josh the owner was so helpful, even gave my little boy a ride on the tractor Immaculate facilities Peaceful environment Within 30-40 mins drive of brixham, sidmouth, torquay, paignton 2 large double beds (so comfortable) either end of top of bus, 4 small single bunk beds (definitely only for children!!) We would definitely come back was wonderful!

    The days that we book. 2 nights were certainly not enough!

    Brilliant few days, away from all the noise and busyness of everyday life. The property is very well equipped, they thought of every detail, especially for the children! Very secluded, perfect if you're looking for a quiet break without the hassle of camping but still experience similar. We loved absolutely everything about it and hope to be back!

    Loved it all.

    Location was excellent, hosts were so welcoming and lovely, alpacas were adorable and not only kept us company but also entertained. The bus is quirky and fun. Kitchen well equipped (no oven but bbqs available). Shower and toilet also great. We had everything we needed, and we were lucky with the weather, so we were able to sit outside to eat and play board games. Even the odd alpaca tried to play dominioes with us! Highly recommend this special place.

    We loved being among the animals. Waking up to the Alpaca's grazing in the morning was an experience in itself amazing! Waking up to the sound of nature is just something everyone should experience once in their life . This Alpaca Farm is perfect for young and old we would highly recommend them couldn't fault the bus or Josh and his Lovely wife.

    As it’s warm, the inside of the bus got very hot particularly upstairs. Only when the temperature dropped during the night could we sleep up there. However, Fans were provided when we requested those.

    Fit an extended family of 7 The quality of the water was amazing - I even noticed some improvements in my son’s eczema after showering there for a few days. It is triple filtered so you can taste the difference when drinking. everything is provided that you’d need to prep some meals, we bought groceries with us. The location is ideal to visit many beaches - we went to Teinmouth and Blackpool sands. Drove into Exeter one evening to pick up a takeaway

    The location was great, but because of it there were quite a lot of spiders and snails inside. Even though we closed all the doors and windows, they still managed to get it. Wouldn't mind too much, but the kids found it hard to sleep.

    This farm is wonderful, truly a different type of holiday. The staff were very lovely and very helpful with any questions or concerns we had. The alpacas were very friendly and made it into a really interesting location. We also planned a BBQ and the staff were really helpful in organizing this. The space inside the bus is also utilized amazingly, lots of storage places too.
