The best campsites in United Kingdom with hiking

·

If hiking is your thing, the United Kingdom serves up over 7,300 camping options where you can lace up your boots and hit the trail straight from your tent. You’ll find campsites tucked into the South Downs, scattered across the Peak District, and dotted through wild Welsh valleys. Prices start as low as £9 per night, with the average night costing around £85. Facilities like toilets, pet-friendly policies, and campfire spots are common, so you can expect the basics covered. Hikers rave about Chalky Downs (241 reviews) for its open skies and easy access to the South Downs Way, or pitch up at White Peak Camping (203 reviews) for limestone ridges and sheep-dotted meadows. For a quieter spot, Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite (185 reviews) puts you in the heart of Powys, surrounded by woodland trails and wildlife. Expect mud, stiles, and the occasional sheep; bring stout boots and a sense of adventure.
