Traditional Gypsy Wagons and Roma Caravans
Our Gypsy Vardos and Roma caravans are situated on a picturesque Devon hillside.
Children are welcome, younger ones can sleep in the wagon with you in the traditional manner, cosily tucked up under the main bed. On the road older ones would have been under the wagon, or you can rent Puttchi Tan; the extra bedroom wagon (when available). Each pitch has enough room to ‘bring-your-own’ small tent for older kids, alternatively choose one of the luxury Roma Caravans for an even larger pitch on site.
“Kushti Vardos is by far the loveliest place I’ve ever stayed! It is so special, the quiet surroundings, the fields and woods, with deer coming out in the twilight or at dawn, the horses grazing peacefully just behind the fences until they’ve had enough and wander off. And above all: those incredibly beautiful wagons!!
Owners Clarence and Sarah are so friendly and helpful, it was a great joy meeting them….”
