Polly the Lorry

Polly the Lorry is a fantastic experience , a great holiday for the whole family. We were warmly welcomed and supported by the hosts.

Our favourite spot outside was in the woodland with a hammock.

This is an amazing place to stay! We received a warm welcome. We had all we needed with comfort and attention to the details, which made our stay a memorable moment.

We had a very special stay. Polly exceeded all of our expectations, she provides a truly magical place to be. We loved bird watching, toasting marshmallows on the fire and having long, hot outdoor baths listening to the rustling trees overhead. It's the only place I've been where I know I want to come back every year. Huge thanks to Nicki and family for creating such a beautiful place.

We had a fabulous week staying at Polly. A peaceful and tranquil spot where we could really chill out and relax. Nicki and her family were all so welcoming and helpful during our stay, helping us with our luggage and providing icepacks daily for the cool box . The fridge was a saviour in the hot weather. Extra touches like the hammock, sun lounger, outside bath, fire pit really made it extra special. Loved collecting eggs from the chickens and the supplies and fizz were much appreciated. Plenty to go and see and do in the surrounding area and a great walk to the local pub through the corn field for Sunday lunch. Loved everything about it!

Our stay was nothing short of excellent. Nicky and family were so welcoming and always willing to answer any questions. The space was great and perfectly equipped. Most importantly, totally idyllic. Our kids were in their element - flying their kite in the field, investigating the pond, enjoying toasted marshmallows after an al fresco bath, befriending the animals and eating fresh eggs for breakfasts under the rustling leaves…

had a perfect little get away , didnt want to leave! hosts were lovely and so accommodating, hope to come visit again :)

My partner and I had such a wonderful stay at Polly the Lorry! It was easy to book, even though we booked it last minute, and the lorry was well maintained by the lovely owners. A great location, close to lots of walks and national trusts. Perfect for switching off and enjoying nature.

We loved our stay in Polly the Lorry.
Nicki was so friendly and welcoming. The lorry and surrounding areas were spotless.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful set up with us.

A fantastic camping experience for a young family of four. We came for a valentines / birthday long weekend. A truly magical spot. We cannot wait to come back again! Hosts were so lovely. Totally off grid, to get away from all the hustle and bustle. A truly magical experience. Don’t change anything.

Definitely an experience worth trying

We had the most wonderful time in an impromptu trip from East Devon to North. We were greeted by Nicky who was lovely and so welcoming and we were absolutely overjoyed by Polly - peaceful, private and full of everything we needed (and more). We loved the location overlooking the fields of sheep and horses. The little woodland with hammock and chairs was so peaceful for a cup of tea in the morning and the outdoor bath was SO luxurious. We highly recommend booking a table at The Bell - 10 mins walk over the fields (so fun).
We loved it so much and would love to come back!

Polly is a fantastic and comfortable place to stay. The attention to detail is superb, there really is everything you need for a comfortable and cosy stay.
The little private woods is a lovely bonus and the outdoor space and furniture ensures you can enjoy the countryside surrounding the site.

It is a peaceful retreat with lovely additions such as the log burner and fire pit.
Communication with Nicky was great and we had everything we needed.

We left feeling refreshed and content knowing that Polly the Lorry is a very special place to stay.
We hope to return in the future.

We absolutely loved Polly the Lorry! We had the best time, our boys lived their best life and didn't want to come home. Waking up to the animals, collecting eggs for breakfast, picking apples, bug hunting and stories in the hammock, lots of out door bath time because it was so hot! all finished with hot dogs on the fire pit then toasted mallows and hot chocolate under the stars. The bottle of fizz on arrival for my husbands birthday was really thoughtful and went down a treat sat out in the sun. The hosts were so lovely and we really had the best few days. We can't wait to come back. Thank you :)

I really enjoyed my long weekend staying in Polly The Lorry, the location is beautiful. It’s incredible quiet and at night the sky is absolutely stunning, no town glare so the sky comes alive with stars. The local pub is great with a really good atmosphere.

What a tranquil and peaceful setting and such a delightfully quirky setup. We possibly had two of the most relaxing and comfortable sleeps of our lives in the utter silence of the countryside, aided in no short measure by the deceptively large and very fluffy bed. Neither of us opened an eye until the sun was high in the sky on both mornings. The lovely shady woodland area was a delightful addition to the property on those hot July days and we especially enjoyed the outdoor bath (as well as the complimentary wine in the fridge!). It was a pleasant surprise in such an outdoor location to have all of the hot water (including the shower) instantly available and unlimited in quantity. Cooking facilities were easy to use and having so much firewood and plenty of kindling without an added fee was certainly an added bonus. Many thanks to the owners for sending us a detailed video showing us how to use everything because we couldn't meet them on the day. A wonderful stay!

We absolutely adored our holiday here. The location & privacy & peace and quiet is exceptional. Polly has been beautifully crafted & decorated & the addition of a bathroom trailer AND hot bath is brilliant.
We appreciated the generous amount of wood supplied for the wood burner & fire pit.
We were able to deeply relax onsite with the woodland hammock, fire pit & bbq's and hot baths & indoors with a wood burner on the one rainy day. We also enjoyed walking over to the local.pub for Sunday lunch, a trip to the beach and a day walking & exploring on Exmoor.
The hosts are so helpful & friendly & should be very proud of what they've created here. Thank you

Really lovely, fun place to stay. Super-comfortable and cosy, the little stove is wonderful on a colder day. Lots of space for kids to play, very clean, beatutiful furnishings but still very homely. Friendly and helpful hosts. Loved it!

I had a wonderful stay in Polly the Lorry. Its a perfect weekend getaway out of the city for those wanting to get off grid. Every little detail had been thought of to make my stay special and comfortable. I would absolutely visit again. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Polly was fantastic. We had an amazing weekend, it was everything I hoped and more. Polly is in a great location to explore North Devon and also perfect just to switch off and relax. Every detail is so well thought out and considerate.

It was clear alot of thought and care went into everything. The hosts are friendly and helpful and easy to contact. The site is stunning and has luxurious features (mainly the bath and shower with hot water constantly!)
Which, when problems with plumbing happened they had it fixed in 24 hours with a friendly family member assisting and fixing it!
The holiday exceeded expectations and the location is perfect. Extras provided like outdoor games, pressed towels and treats to indulge in contributed to a very high standard holiday. We would highly recommend this holiday!

Brilliant off the grid location, but not far from South Molton centre if you want to hunt down some cheese, bread, wine and a wonderful, quaint farmers market.

Location - perfect, with sheep, horses, tractors, "a swamp" as my son called it, but actually a moss filled pond. Lots of beautiful nature to unwind and reset in. And lots of different seating to take in the breath-taking views of it all.

Outdoor bath - smashing addition! A woman's touch. Very, very nice with all the necessaries. Both romantic and just downright "au-natural." Very well done on this.

Fire pit - perfect, with unlimited logs and kindling and fire lighters, all to be able to enjoy bbqs, and smores with the family.

Hosts - what a wonderful family. To be greeted hospitality by Nicky and children and dog, Mabel. But also to be called prior to our trip was ultimately the best customer experience.
If you want family owned, authentic kindness and nature. THIS. IS. THE. PLACE. We came here as an escape from London city life but also to celebrate my son's 11th birthday. They immediately took this on board, put up a Happy Birthday, banner and left him a cone of candies personalised to him. Touched by details.

Anemities, were all above board.

Plan to revist. Well done to our gracious hosts!

We booked this stay for the adventure. And adventure is what we got. It gave us some quality time as a family. The Lorry is very well equipped with everything you need and makes it's a very comfortable.

What an absolute gem. The hosts were so friendly and Polly is just beautiful. All the finishing touches has been thought of. We will be back x

We had a magical holiday. Some of our highlights were the outside bath, toasting marshmallows over the fire pit, the prosecco which was gifted on arrival, the thoughtful furnishings and equipment, collecting eggs from the chickens and the beautiful fields. We hope we can come again next year!

Beautiful property; unique, peaceful and magical. Very welcoming and helpful hosts too. Wonderful location; it felt isolated (which is what we wanted), but was only 3 fields away from a lovely pub with great food and drinks. I have already recomended to friends and I will be back!

Polly the Lorry is a delightful , luxurious glamping spot, peaceful, relaxing and comfortable . The owner really has thought of everything here for you . Would definitely recommend Polly the lorry for anyone who wishes to get away from it all, but at the same time being close enough to the beautiful north devon coast to visit many beaches and sights.

Our stay at Polly the Lorry was simply perfect. The setting is stunning, the hosts are wonderful, and everything about the site/amenities was the perfect combination of natural and indulgent. Our young family of 4 had a wonderful time and had our most memorable holiday yet. Thank you, we hope to come back soon!

Our hosts were so kind and helpful and our daughter really enjoyed playing with their kids and the animals on the farm. It was a unique and unforgettable experience.

Great hideaway in beautiful area. Easy to while away the hours reading on the decking or wander to the village. Fitted out with great love and care so has most things you need even if not on listing. .. but still feels off grid. Just watch out for the low ceiling above the bed as it's a tight fit

Polly exceeded our expectations as first class "glamping" accomodation. It was the perfect "off-grid" detox in a beautiful location, with nothing for miles other than the nearby farm animals which children will adore.
The accomodation was very well equipped and the owners had certainly thought of every little detail.
Comfortable, clean and perfect for a family of 3 or 4. We stayed across a particulary hot spell (35degC!) for the UK, but the accomodation was comfortable to sleep at night and the small private wood with hammock, was a lovely cool spot to relax. For food, the "lorry" is well equipped to cater, but The Bell - in Chittlehampton, which is a very pleasant walk across a few fields, serves great food. Thanks to Nicki and family for helping where needed and their young son for transporting our luggage on his "Petrol Pony" :). Thanks again for a great escape!

Polly the Lorry - perfect...highly recommend it! Very nice people, great setting, great condition.

Our short break in Polly exceeded all our expectations. A totally, get away from it all holiday in a beautiful, secluded location. Polly was very well equipped, comfortable and clean. The private wood offered welcoming shade on a very hot weekend especially after walking to the local pub - The Bell - in Chittlehampton where we enjoyed a delicious roast. Nicki and Arron, Polly's owners, were lovely and helpful. Thank you for such a relaxing break!
