Bloomberry Juice

Bloomberry Juice is a family run business which was set up to provide fresh juice cocktails and smoothies at various events throughout the country. Within a year of starting people were asking to take home our juices. This launched the juice cocktails in glass bottles with a twist of bloom in our berry drinks. Since then, Bloomberry Juice has produced a diverse range of drinks, using local ingredients where possible. We press our own apples and freeze until required for production, enabling us to maintain freshness.

Our guiding principles – we don’t use added sugar [only local honey in 2 products], we don’t add preservatives or any other additive, and no concentrated juices, just pressed. So our products are as natural as they can be. We collect our own floral extracts in season, fuse and freeze until required. We introduce new recipes when new fruit become available, like our Apple & Blackcurrant. We try to give those not drinking alcohol a satisfying experience whether drunk in a wine glass or high glass with ice or even with sparkling water for a more refreshing drink.

You can buy our juices at:

Exe Valley Glamping

Welcome to Exe Valley Glamping. Set within 150 acres on our family farm, Exe Valley Glamping is the perfect place to reconnect with nature. Enjoy the breathtaking scenery and relax with friends & family - all without sacrificing home comforts.

About Us

Exe Valley Glamping was established by father and son team - Robin & Patrick.  ​Wanting to diversify their family farm by promoting responsible and sustainable tourism, glamping was an appealing option to both country enthusiasts.  Patrick has over two decades of hospitality experience. Having recently moved his young family back to Devon, he felt it was an opportunity to put his experience into something closer to his heart.

"Mid Devon is a great spot.  It's full of old world charm and retains a sense of a by-gone era, which is really appealing to those wanting to experience an authentic holiday or staycation."

The pair set off to create what is an ever evolving project, offering guests tailored experiences, sumptuous hospitality and a wealth of natural activities to engage.

Canvas Lodges

Up a woodland trail, you'll find a secret hideaway revealing each of our canvas lodges.  Their unique charm and thoughtful design will provide not just comfort, but an experience the whole family will enjoy. Everything you require for a perfect nature escape is here.

Each tent is purpose-built to make your glamping holiday fuss-free and easy so you can relax and unwind from everyday stresses.  Powered by nature, our eco-conscious lodges use solar energy and wood collected through woodland management. This provides heat and maximum comfort without relinquishing the benefits or adventure of outdoor living.

Soft linen, plump pillows & cozy duvets will be beckoning at the end of each day.  Snuggling down for the night will be about as difficult as waking up to birdsong, the smell of freshly ground coffee & knowing you have a breakfast hamper full of fresh goodies on your doorstep.  It is luxury camping after all!

Tents feature 3 bedrooms - one King & one Twin, each with their own access to the shower & loo.  The twin can be converted into a generous Superking for couples sharing. But the ultimate snug is the whimsical cabin bedroom featuring its own canopy, double mattress & hatched doors. It also doubles up as the perfect children's den and night-time refuge (if you can get there first!)

Wilderness adventures for the whole family.

Kids love nothing better than sleeping under canvas, toasting marshmallows, and discovering wildlife hidden under logs and in pebbled streams.  At Exe Valley Glamping, the whole family can enjoy woodland walks, picnics on the River Exe or wading on the pebbled bank.  All just a stone’s throw from your tent!

Each canvas tent has board games, puzzles and books so families can enjoy precious time and unwind together.  Whatever age your kids, there's something for everyone; adventures for thrill seekers, explorers, and moochers.

Lapford

Welcome to Lapford

Lapford is a parish and traditional rural village in the heart of the Devonshire countryside, overlooking the river Yeo.  Steeped in history, Lapford has traces back to the Iron Age being a place of worship by the Celts.

The village features a playing field with two play areas, football pitch and fenced playground.  There is also a request-stop railway station on the Tarka line, which runs between Exeter and Barnstaple.

Interesting Facts

• Lapford falls under an area of Devon known as 'the River country' for the many rivers the run nearby.
• The nearby Bury Barton is the site of a Roman fort.  It is thought to be a large pre-Flavian fort that was succeeded by a smaller one, which in turn was later abandoned early in the Flavian period.
• In the early part of the 20th century, the milk processing company Ambrosia had a large creamery and processing facility at Lapford.
• The village is said to be haunted by two ghosts.  The first is the former Vicar of Lapford's church, the St Thomas of Canterbury Church, John Radford. He murdered his curate in the 1860s, but was spared from the gallows by a jury of his village parishioners. For his dying wish, he asked to be buried in the church chancel. However, the church authorities would not allow this.  Instead, he was buried outside the vestry door where his grave can still be seen today. As a result, his angry spirit is said to still wander around the village.  Lapford is also said to be haunted by the spirit of the former Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Becket. Every 29th December, on the anniversary of his murder, he gallops through the village on a white horse on his way to confront his murderer Sir William de Tracey.

Things to Do and Places to See

• Visit the grade I listed parish church dedicated to St Thomas of Canterbury.  Originally a Norman chapel, the chapel was rebuilt and extended by Sir William De Tracey (on the orders of King Henry II) as penance for his part in the murder of Thomas Becket in 1170.  De Tracey was lord of the manor of Bradninch, which at that time, included what is now Lapford.  The church features a late 15th Century carved screen, which is uniquely carved on both sides.
• Lapford Village Market takes place on the last Saturday each month at Lapford Victory Hall.  The market runs from 11am to 1pm with various stalls and light lunches available.
• Eggesford Forest

Places to Eat

• The village has one pub - The old Malt Scoop Inn, an old coaching inn from the 16th Century - that offers an à la carte menu, daily specials and Sunday roasts.  The pub also hosts regular events including quiz nights and karaoke as well as themed meals for special occasions.  In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the pub was also the local undertakers and the original laying-out table can still be seen in the kitchen bar (minus the bodies of course).
• Nearby villages offer restaurant food at local pubs including The Lymington Arms at Wembworthy and The Devonshire Dumpling at Down St Mary.

Cruwys Morchard

Welcome to Cruwys Morchard

Cruwys Morchard is a scattered parish about four miles west of Tiverton along the Witheridge road.  The parish is named after the Cruwys family who have been Lords of the Manor there since the reign of King John.

Many notable people hail from Cruwys Morchard including Robert Cruwys (the cricketer and clergyman) and Margaret Campbell Speke Cruwys (a Devon historian).  Sir Robert Cruwys (who was knighted for his service in France during the Hundred Years War in the 1300s) and Robertus de Cruwes MP for Devon in 1340 and 1344, are also both from Cruwys Morchard.

The parish church of the Holy Cross was built in 1529, on the site of a former wooden church.  In 1689, lightning struck the church tower causing a destructive fire, following which much of the interior was refurbished.

Cruwys Morchard has two pubs that offer food: The Cruwys Arms (a 16th century inn in Pennymoor) and The Mount Pleasant Inn at Nomansland.  Restaurants in nearby villages include: the award-winning Cadeleigh Arms at Cadeleigh, Le Petite Bouchée at Witheridge and the Ring of Bells and Half Moon Inn at Cheriton Fitzpaine

Libbets Well

Libbets Well is a holy well or sacred spring in Crediton thought to date from the 17th century (or earlier) and dedicated to Saint Elizabeth.  Holy wells were traditionally used for curative purposes; being known for their healing properties.

Sited in the cob garden wall of the neighbouring Priory Cottage, with a vaulted stone roof.  The well is close to the Parish Church and is the site of an ancient priest's hostel (possibly also a leper hospital).  The well is served by a spring and feeds a small basin in front.  In recent years, locals have reintroduced the tradition of leaving gifts of flowers and other offerings at the well.

Libbets Well is tucked away behind Church Street.  To find it, walk down the road to the left of the church (towards Newcombe's Meadow).  There will be a narrow lane shortly after Libbets Cottage on the left; head down this and follow the curving path for a few yards.  The well will then be in front of you.

Historic Monument

Halberton

The pretty village of Halberton (name derived from Haligbeort – a combination of Albert, a Saxon Chief  and tun meaning a farm settlement) is located between Sampford Peverell and Tiverton. It has two separate parts to it, known locally as the Higher and Lower Town. These two parts of the village are connected by the old mill stream and the picturesque duck pond where, if you are lucky, you may catch a flash of vivid blue as a kingfisher dives for fish.

Historically the village had important administrative duties. Deeply rooted in farming tradition; many of the farms date as far back as Doomsday.

The magnificent tower and clock of the striking 14^thcentury red sandstone church, located in Halberton Lower Town, are immediately obvious as you drive into the village. The church is well worth a visit and is dedicated to St Andrew. It is believed to be built on the site of earlier churches. During the Civil War, Halberton saw action and two unknown soldiers were buried in the Churchyard. There are many beautiful features worth noting within the church including a 12^th century Norman font and a Pulpit and Screen dating from the 15^th century.

On the Main High Street which runs through the Higher Town, is The Priory, a Grade II listed building where a small assembly of Augustinian canons were established. Dissolved in the 1500s, the building was then converted into a dwelling.

The Grand Western canal winds its way past the back of the village and loops around in a Swan’s neck just outside the village on the Tiverton side. See the Swan’s Neck Walk for further details. Again, just outside the village, just before the canal loops around, you will find the Halberton Farm Shop which stocks a range of locally grown fruit, vegetables, cheeses and meat.

During the summer months, you can pick your own soft fruit in the tunnels behind the farm shop. Alongside the shop is the delightful ‘Ivan’s Café’ serving locally roasted coffee and a range of delicious pies and pasties and for those with a sweet tooth, locally made ice cream.

Thorverton

Welcome to Thorverton

Thorverton village sits about a mile west of the River Exe and 8 miles north of Exeter.  It is almost centrally located between Exeter and the towns of Tiverton, Cullompton and Crediton.

A channelled stream, which drains the Raddon (literally 'red hill') Hills to the north and runs to the River Exe, winds through the village. A pedestrian bridge and ford cross the stream at Silver Street. The Millennium Green provides walking alongside the stream which runs through the centre of the village.

Located on clay and sand, Thorverton has a subsoil of red rock, which gives the earth its distinctive red colouring. The area is rich in rare and unusual rocks and minerals. Manganese has been found near Upton Pyne, and small quantities of gold in local streams. An igneous rock has been quarried at Raddon since the 12th century and the bubbled rock can be seen in numerous examples of local stonework, including the famed Stoke Canon Bridge.

Interesting Facts

• Thorverton was once well known locally for its apricots.
• The Thorverton Arms in the centre of the village, for the majority of its life known as 'The Dolphin', was built in the 16th century. Amusing, if lurid, tales of its past provide a glimpse of the human life of Thorverton's past. A traveller turned up at The Dolphin one evening in 1650 and took a room for himself and his sister. The landlord, after a while, had reason to suspect their relationship and confronted them. The traveller blandly replied that as Adam and Eve were the father and mother of us all, the lady could truthfully be described as his 'sister'.
• The award-winning poet Fiona Benson resides in the parish of Thorverton.
• Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, written in 1811, was set in the village of Upton Pyne - around three miles from Thorverton. The marriage of Elinor Dashwood and Edward Ferrars was set in the village church.  Barton Park, the large and handsome home of the Middletons from the same novel, is thought to be based on Pynes House.

What's On in Thorverton?

• The Memorial Hall provides a centre for entertainment, with a monthly Saturday Market for local produce.
• Thorfest is an annual music festival that takes place on the first Saturday of September.
• Thorverton Parish Church hosts the annual East Devon Arts Festival each May.

Places to See

• The parish Church of St Thomas of Canterbury is the oldest building in the parish. Built from locally quarried stone mostly in the late 15th and early 16th centuries, some parts are thought to date to the 13th century.  The Church is dedicated to Thomas Beckett, the 12th century archbishop who was murdered.
• Byway Farm is a Woodland Welcome Wood. A collection of newly planted and ancient woodlands which have won awards for conservation and wild flowers.
• There are three bowl barrows – funerary monuments dating from the Late Neolithic period - south east of Fordy Bridge in the village of Thorverton.  The barrows are sited on a ridge overlooking the valley of a tributary to the River Exe.  In the neighbouring village of Nether Exe, is the Netherexe Cursus – a scheduled Neolithic field monument presumed to be used for ritual or ceremonial purposes. Adjacent to the cursus is a long mortuary enclosure and ring ditch (potentially a plough-levelled bowl barrow, thought to be a Bronze Age burial monument) and other associated crop marks.  A gap in the north eastern circuit of the ditch represents an original entrance.

Places to Eat

• Enjoy local produce from Thorverton's two farm shops - Exe Valley Farm Shop and Thorne's Farm Shop and Café.  Alternatively, visit the local Berry Dairy store for supplies of locally sourced food treats and hand-baked goods.
• Good food is offered at the village's pub The Thorverton Arms. Alternatively, visit the nearby village of Brampford Speke and stop for refreshments at The 'Agi' (Agricultural Inn).

Uffculme

Welcome to Uffculme

Uffculme is a village and civil parish situated in the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.  Set on the B3440, close to the M5 motorway and main railway line, Uffculme is on the upper reaches of the River Culm.

The Coldharbour Mill working wool museum is a popular tourist attraction, as are the scenic old railway and riverside walks.

Interesting Facts

• The village has featured in literature and works of art. In RD Blackmore’s novel Perlycross, the fiction village of Perliton is based on Uffculme. In 1982/83, the artist Robert Organ painted a portrait of four children from Uffculme School (suitably titled ‘The Uffculme Children’).
• Snooker player Sam Baird comes from the village and the singer Joss Stone lived in Uffculme parish in Rull hamlet.  Children’s author J T Scott, who writes fantasy books about dragons and castles, also comes from Uffculme.
• During 2008, the village's Langlands Business Park featured in the Channel 4 fly-on-the-wall documentary ‘Wonky Willie's Chocolate Factory’. Being the location of Willie Harcourt-Cooze's chocolate factory, Uffculme is one of the first places to make cocoa in the UK since the Cadbury family.
• Many of the historic artefacts that Captain Cook brought back to England from his travels were at one time on display at Uffculme’s Bridwell Park in the purpose-built, Gothic-style chapel.
• The unusual 3-storey Victorian red-brick dwelling at the lower end of Ashill village, has an interesting tale. Legend has it that it began life as a 2-storey building, but during its construction the owner's fiancée left him. To win her back, the man tried to impress her by commissioning an extra storey to his new home. Alas, he was unsuccessful in this, and the woman never returned to him.

What's On in Uffculme?

Uffculme parish has an active community with many regular and special events throughout the year at its pubs, churches and attractions.  Some of particular note include:

• Uffculme Farmers’ Market is held on the fourth Saturday of every month, from 10am – 12noon in the village hall.  A pop-up Artisans Growers and Makers Market takes place monthly at Bridwell Park until the end of October.
• Heritage Open Day events at Coldharbour Mill and Spiceland Quaker House (which has links to the chocolatiers Cadbury family).
• The local pubs The Ostler and The George Inn offer regular live music events and Gordon’s Jazz Club takes place at Magelake Pavilion every third Wednesday evening of the month.
• There are two annual beer and music festivals: Ashill Beer and Music Festival on the first weekend in June and Uffculme Music and Real Ale Festival taking place the first weekend in July.

• Coldharbour Mill is one of the oldest woollen mills in the UK, having been in continuous production since 1797. Today the rich heritage lives on as one of the finest working wool museums where visitors are not just able to relive the sights and sounds of the industrial revolution but also see craftsmen and women making traditional textiles, beautiful knitting yarn and hand woven rugs.  Please note: the mill closes over the winter period, reopening at Easter.
• Woodland is a key feature of the parish with several copses and hedgerow trees.  Visitors can enjoy walking in Hunkin Wood (A Woodland Trust Wood) – a Millennium Project community woodland. It includes new tree planting with wild flower meadows and is popular with locals. There are also three commons in the parish: Gadden Down, Hackpen Hill (which offers stunning views over the Culm Valley) and Uffculme Down.  There are various walks around these commons; Gadden Down being popular with locals for its woodland and wildlife.
• A disused railway runs through the Parish, mainly along the Culm Valley, parts of which are now public footpath (between Coldharbour Mill and Uffculme Church). This provides good opportunities for walkers to enjoy local wildlife.  Walks can be continued along public footpaths through fields which run alongside the River Culm.
• If you are visiting over the Christmas period, then Uffculme village is a must-see for its stunning Christmas lights.  Each year, a community of volunteers set up strings of multi-coloured lights throughout the village all leading to a web-like canopy over the village square.

St Peter's Church

Dated from 1073, St Peter’s Church, Tiverton is a Grade I listed parish church with a ninety-nine foot high tower and a stunning collection of stained glass windows.

St. Peter’s has been the centre of civic life in Tiverton for centuries and still serves as the site for the town-wide celebrations of Remembrance Day and Mayor’s Sunday. The Church’s Grade 1 listing derives primarily from the beauty and historic significance of the Greenway Chapel built in 1517.

The church is noted as being the location of the first performance of Mendelssohn's "Wedding March", which was performed by Samuel Reay at the wedding of Dorothy Carew and Tom Daniel on 2 June 1847.  It is also famed for being the burial site and holding the funeral service for Princess Katherine Plantagenet in 1527.

There are booklets available in the Church about the history, stained glass windows and organ, as well as information boards that can be carried when exploring the Church.
