Overview of Devon Heaven Hideaways
Devon Heaven Hideaways is a small collection of glamping accommodation on a family run farm in the Kenn Valley near Exeter. Each property occupies its own plot beside the River Kenn, surrounded by meadows, rolling fields and South Devon countryside.
The current accommodation range includes three self contained shepherd’s huts sleeping two guests and a two bedroom cabin sleeping up to four. Every property has a private hot tub, log burner, kitchen, bathroom, WiFi, television and parking beside the accommodation.
The shepherd’s huts are designed mainly for couples and solo visitors. Each has a double or king size bed, kitchen facilities, shower room and a private garden or patio. Two of the huts welcome dogs and have enclosed outdoor areas.
The larger cabin provides accommodation for couples, families or groups of up to four. It has two king size bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open plan kitchen and living area, a freestanding bath and a separate garden room with a home cinema and infrared sauna.
Outdoor facilities vary between the properties and can include a barbecue, firepit, pizza oven, hammocks, outdoor dining, a cold plunge bath and private seating beside the river. Each hideaway provides its own facilities rather than relying on shared park buildings.
The Ley Arms is approximately five minutes away on foot, while Haldon Forest, Powderham Castle, Exeter, Dawlish Warren and the Exe Estuary can all be reached for days out. Devon Heaven Hideaways is ideal for hot tub breaks, couples, smaller families and visitors looking for self contained glamping near Exeter.
