A weekend in Higher Holcombe.

It's set in beautiful woodland, all planted and managed by the owners over the past two decades. There will be a lot of grassy frolicking, so choose your footwear with that in mind.

On the day, a lot of the touches will be personal or made by hand.

Travel.

Train

The nearest station is Honiton, a 14-minute taxi from the venue. Trains go direct from Waterloo, or you can go to Exeter and double back.

Taxis

There is no Uber in this area, so you'll need to book in advance:

Driving

The Maps link worked for us, but Sat Nav can sometimes be a bit funny. So, more detailed instructions:

  1. From M5 / J29 take the A30 towards Honiton.
  2. Leave A30 at Patterson's Cross.
  3. Follow signs to Otter Garden Centre.
  4. Go through Alfington (B3177) and take the 1st left (Holcombe Lane).
  5. Higher Holcombe is 1km up a narrow lane on the right.

If you reach Otter Garden Centre, you've gone too far. Turn around and take the 1st right (Holcombe Lane).

Staying.

There is limited glamping available on site - if you're staying in one of those, you know already.

If you like, you can camp in your own tent or campervan alongside those staying in yurts.

There are nice places to stay in the area, particularly in Ottery St Mary (5 min drive) and Honiton (12 min drive). Here are a couple the venue recommends:
