A Red Double decker bus sleeping up to 8 guests situated in the corner of our field. The bus has all you will need on board. A fridge freezer , gas hob , plates cups , cutlery , glasses, pots and pans. Linen NOT included but available to hire. Two King size beds and 4 single beds *** SINGLE BEDS ARE 5 FOOT LONG AND 2 FOOT 6 INCHES WIDE*** set out as galley style bunk beds. A breakfast bar and lounge seating provides ample space to relax. The field is also home to 12 alpacas , 30 hens , ducks and a couple of pigs. The bus shares the field with 3 glamping huts but is situated so it is not overlooked . You have lots of privacy . The bus has its own toilet and hot shower situated in a private block 10 meters from the bus. The bus has a private garden area out front with a picnic bench and sun loungers/day beds on and there are fire pits and logs to hire/buy on site.
Dartmoor Reach is a working farm so don’t be surprised to see Alpacas outside the front door, hens pecking around the field and pigs rootling around in the mud .
There is a small play area for the children with a mud kitchen, wendy house, slide and rope swing.
Josh and Natalie live on site and are always happy to help with anything the guests need.
Dartmoor Reach is on the edge of Dartmoor National Park with the nearest Tor – Haytor- a ten minute drive away . There are many beautiful walks to be had nearby including one to our award winning local pub – The Claycutters arms (15 minutes on foot).
We are lucky to have so many beautiful beaches close by . Our nearest beach is Teignmouth (20 mins drive)and the gorgeous South Hams .

About the host
Hosted by Host
Born on Dartmoor Josh moved onto the farm in 2015 and didn't mean to stay longer then a few months whilst he decided where to live with his daughter Romy (a baby then) .
He then met Scotland born Natalie (his future wife) and Cerys (his future step daughter and Romy's future step sister) and things all changed.
Natalie and Josh realised they shared a dream of sharing their little piece of Dartmoor and helping others re connect with nature and general well being.
Josh and Natalie started farming Alpacas in 2019, married in 2021 and opened for ‘glamping’ in the same year. The Big red bus arrived in 2022.
Natalie then realised her own dream by building her yoga studio.
We are a very laid back family. We enjoy growing our own meat and veg , collecting our own eggs , the countryside, camp fires and a drink down the pub. Natalie is a fully qualified yoga instructor with an on site studio. Natalie is very spiritual and Josh is on his own path in life .
Josh spends all his time and money on the farm and is constantly looking at how to improve what we have to offer here. Dartmoor Reach Alpaca Farm is now Josh and Natalie's life work.
Guests love it here !
