Welcome to Salcombe Shepherd Huts

Luxury Camping in South Devon






Salcombe Shepherd huts are based at Ilton farm, which is a working family farm and campsite. It is situated in the depths of the South Hams, South Devon, within a mile and a half of the sailing mecca that is Salcombe, and 5 miles of the market town of Kingsbridge.


The 100 acre farm is nestled within rolling hills in an area of outstanding natural beauty surrounding the Salcombe estuary. We have spent the last 50 years creating a relaxed, peaceful and tranquil three acre campsite.


The campsite itself is sheltered by traditional Devon hedge banks and yet boasts formidable views across the estuary and surrounding countryside.
