Dartmoor Reach Alpaca Farm

It was homely, cosy and in a beautiful location. Everything within the hut was good quality. The kitchen has 3 hobs and a fridge, it was well equipped and very clean. The double bed was very comfortable, the bedding and towels were soft and fresh. The direct window view to the field of alpacas was the best. The hot shower outside was invigorating - my daughters were a bit unsure at first but both loved the experience. The owners are very hospitable and responsive and communication and instructions for self check in were detailed and straight forward. Thanks for looking after us, we had a truly relaxing stay and hopefully we’ll come again x 🙏☺️

Nothing to fault

I really recommend staying at this place it’s go unique and special. Perfect for a weekend getaway with the kids. Kids can freely explore and feed the alpacas . The owners are lovely and they make you feel so welcome :)

Liked the alpacas and facilities were as advertised. The hosts were helpful.

Dartmoor Reach is a wonderful place. My partner (27) and I (28) loved the cosy cabin we stayed in, which we found to be sufficiently equipped for a small place. Our cabin, Bluebell, had a comfortable elevated bed with ladder access. Underneath the bed was plenty of space for two more people to sleep, but we used this space for storage. The cabin had a toaster, kettle, cafetiere, three hobs, sink, complementary tea and packet-coffee, packet milk, salt and pepper, and cleaning utensils. That was great because we were easily able to cook for ourselves. There was also a toilet in a separate room and a rather fun outdoor shower. The temperature inside the cabin was pleasantly warm. The highlight was of course the alpacas! It was absolutely fabulous to wake up in the morning with a view of alpacas grazing in the meadow in front of us, who we continued to admire during our breakfast outside on the porch in front of the cabin. The alpacas are very friendly and approachable, and for £2.50 you can purchase alpaca feed from the honesty shop to feed and interact with them. We also have to shout out the ducks and chickens who also gave us good company. We enjoyed having a fire pit, which we were able to rent from the honesty shop from which we also bought wood. The honesty shop also provides small barbecues and some rather tasty homemade stout. The location of Dartmoor Reach is brilliant for anyone looking to spend some time on Dartmoor. Josh gave us really clear instructions for our self-check in. Josh is very friendly and communicative and was easy to get in touch with and quick to respond. We appreciated him dropping by in the morning to check up on us and have a nice conversation.

It would be nice to provide a few more cooking essentials such as sunflower oil and basic herbs, in addition to salt and pepper. The lighter in the cabin was out of lighter fluid and there wasn't much kindling besides the fire starter and paper, which meant we struggled to get the fire in our firepit started and the large logs properly burning. It would be good to include some kindling and matches in the bag of wood in the honesty shop.

Everything. The perfect after school getaway. The place had everything we needed. The beds super comfy. I booked the girls on the farmer experience and id highly recommend it. Josh the farmer was so friendly and they helped out with the chicks, ducks, feeding the alpacas and collecting eggs honestly was a highlight for my girls. The outdoor area is stunning, a mud kitchen to play with, tree swing, little stumps to sit around the fire. We had a BBQ even though it rained a little bit. We loved it all.

Friendly, relaxing, safe environment

That I could not stay longer

Everything! Had a beautiful time with my family here. Our kids were free to run and explore (doesn’t get better than waking up and feeding alpacas in your pyjamas!). A magical place run by magical people. 10/10

Wanted to stay longer than the 2 nights we booked.

Amazing unique experience for both adult and child. Heated huts are well equipped, cosy and done to a high standard. Josh and Natalie were so kind and helpful, always on hand to help. Great honesty shop of farm produced product and so tasty. Kids got to roam in safety independently, feeding the animals and exploring. The place reminded me of years ago when iPads didn’t exist and kids played out for hours! Only regret is not booking for 3 nights !! We will be back, thank you.
