Loveland Farm: A Sustainable Glamping Domes Haven in North Devon
Tucked away in the rolling hills of North Devon, Loveland Farm is far more than a traditional glamping site. It’s a visionary retreat where sustainability, creativity, and natural beauty meet. This unique destination blends off-grid living with design innovation to create a glamping experience that is both eco-conscious and unforgettable.
Founded by fashion designer Jeff Griffin and his family, Loveland Farm is the embodiment of a dream brought to life — one inspired by a single encounter with tree-suspended wooden pods in the forests of Canada.
A Vision Born from Nature and Imagination
The idea behind Loveland Farm was sparked during a family trip that revealed the beauty of elevated, minimalist shelters in the wild. This experience planted the seed for a bold new concept: a glamping site where sustainability and stylish simplicity could exist in harmony.
The Griffins took their vision home and, with the help of the local community, set about crafting a place that celebrates connection — to nature, to creativity, and to others. Today, Loveland Farm is not just a glamping destination, but a thriving social hub where guests can take part in outdoor sports, creative lectures, and live music events.
Sustainability at the Core
From the outset, a sustainable glamping experience has been central to Loveland Farm’s mission. Everything on-site reflects this commitment to the planet and to a better future. The farm uses:
-
Recycled woodchip biomass systems
-
Solar panels for clean energy
-
Composting toilets to reduce waste
-
Homegrown vegetables and local produce to support a circular economy
These eco-conscious choices shape every aspect of life on the farm and encourage guests to think differently about travel and the environment.
TruDomes Brings ‘Pod Land’ to Life
To help turn their vision into reality, Loveland Farm partnered with TruDomes to create a beautiful ‘pod land’. We supplied a range of geodesic domes in different colours and sizes — each selected to suit the unique terrain and visual identity of the farm.
The domes sit harmoniously within the landscape, offering guests panoramic views of North Devon’s countryside. More than just places to sleep, the domes at Loveland Farm are experiential spaces — immersive, comfortable, and truly inspiring.
Glamping with Purpose
Loveland Farm invites guests to leave their cars behind and embrace a low-impact lifestyle during their stay. Visitors are encouraged to explore the surrounding countryside on foot, by bike, or by using local transport.
This approach not only reduces the site’s carbon footprint, but enhances the overall experience — slowing the pace, deepening the connection to nature, and highlighting the beauty of mindful travel.
A Model for Future Glamping Sites
Loveland Farm is more than a campsite. It’s a living example of sustainable glamping, rooted in creativity and local collaboration. From eco-friendly dome structures to renewable energy systems, every element reflects a desire to live gently on the earth without sacrificing comfort or design.
By blending fashion, lifestyle, and environmental awareness, Loveland Farm proves that the simplest ideas — when nurtured with care — can lead to extraordinary results.
