Rare Airstream with private pitch, deck, firepit and optional hot tub and sauna | House in Devon
1 Bedroom House in Honiton, Devon
Stay in an exceptionally rare 1949 Silver Streak Clipper set in Devon’s Blackdown Hills National Landscape, right on the Devon–Somerset border. This is off-grid glamping designed for quiet nights, stargazing, and switching off, with your own private pitch, valley views, and a covered deck for outdoor living.
Guests choose the Clipper for its one-of-a-kind vintage character paired with simple, practical comforts: a peaceful rural setting, a sheltered outdoor setup with a firepit and BBQ, and optional add-ons like a wood-fired hot tub. You will also have access to well-kept shared facilities on site, including a modern wash block and a communal wood-fired sauna (bookable for a nightly fee).

A home to relax and unwind
The Clipper is set up for slow mornings and cosy evenings. Inside, the front of the trailer features a curved bench seating nook wrapped around the front windows, creating a bright spot to read, chat, or watch the landscape change. Step outside and the covered deck becomes the heart of the stay: linger over unhurried breakfasts, cook on the BBQ, then gather around the firepit as the sky darkens and the stars come out.
If you book the optional wood-fired hot tub, it adds a wonderfully rustic ritual to your evenings. The communal wood-fired sauna is also available to book for a relaxing wind-down after a day exploring the countryside or coast.
