EXPLORE THE HOSTEL

Ashclyst Farm Hostel is a charming National Trust farm house on an organic arable farm at the edge of Ashclyst Forest. Your hosts Martyn & Lorraine are tenant farmers for the Killerton Estate. Their spacious farmhouse has five private rooms with two twins, two doubles and a triple room. The beds are fully made up with duvets and the bedrooms are spacious and quiet. Guests have full use of the farmhouse kitchen, dining rooms and lounge. There is a walled courtyard which leads to the old wash-house and servants quarters which now provide secure cycle storage and space for drying wet gear. Larger groups are welcome to camp in the Orchard, just off the courtyard and share the farmhouse facilities with the rest of their group. Dogs are welcome in the Orchard with campers, by arrangement. The rural location and quite roads are ideal for families, walkers and cyclists, wanting to enjoy the Devon Countryside.
