Best Woodland Camping in Delamere Forest

Delamere Forest packs in over 190 forest camping options, each surrounded by dense woodland and winding trails. You’ll find sites where red squirrels dart between pines, and the moss underfoot never quite dries out. Average prices hover around £61 per night, but you can pitch up for as little as £12 if you’re watching your budget. Toilets, showers, and campfires are standard at most spots—just bring your own marshmallows. Fishing lakes, early-morning wildlife-watching, and horseback riding keep the days busy. For local favourites, try Intake Farm (42 reviews), The White Lodge (33 reviews), or Eden's Nook (28 reviews). You’ll want sturdy boots, a sense of adventure, and a plan for your rubbish—the forest trails aren’t forgiving to litterbugs.

The pod was nice, clean, and well-maintained, and although four pods were located in a row, it felt very private, largely due to large open field in front. Excellent location to visit Haddon Hall, less than 5 min drive.

The chicken hut was very cosy and also had all the mod cons. The view was lovely and the location was great base to explore north wales. We had a tour of the farm and it was clear how much the owners care about the animals.

2 nights at The White Lodge

It was our first time camping with our new teardrop camper and we definitely chose the right place! David was so lovely and helped me to reverse it onto the pitch. Due to bad reviews I expected the facilities to be dirty but they were far from it! Very clean and plenty of toilet roll! As for the location, it’s amazing for people who love walking, we had a few hours walk down the canal and I definitely recommend walking across the road to the Riverside cafe for some lunch. Other than that there’s not much to do unless you want to drive into Stafford Centre but perfect for a quiet chilled couple of nights!

Our stay at Over the Moon was absolutely perfect. Ruth was super friendly and gave clear instructions on how to find them, and replied quickly to any questions. The location is beautiful and incredibly peaceful. The hut had everything we needed and the bed was huge and very comfortable. We can’t wait to come stay again!

A fantastic week as close to perfect as possible. Buddy my dog and I stayed in our own tent on the Don Don pitch. Falling to sleep with the guddling of the stream outside. Watched a meteor storm with fellow guests and got to sample Jane's cooking. Jane can cook. They make pizza in a pizza oven outdoors that is as good as any Italian pie. Easy to find. Lots of parking and super tidy with spotless bathrooms. Without a doubt I'm coming back. Thank You.

Had an incredible few days at lloyds meadow, my husband did some fishing while I relaxed and crocheted, the campsite was clean and quiet, we even caught the meteor shower on Tuesday evening along with the northern lights. Sarah was an incredible host, always checking we had everything we needed, and very friendly.
