Grange Wood Glamping
5 units · Glamping3 acres · Staffordshire, West Midlands
‘The Grange' B&B at Lower Loxley Staffordshire is just off the main A518
Stafford Road, 3 miles from the old market town Uttoxeter. Only 400 metres down a country lane is a very special place. Mary’s family have farmed here since the seventies and on her parents’ retirement, the modern agricultural buildings were taken down and the original brick buildings were converted into homes for the family.
Mary and Mick moved here in 2006 and Mary with 20 years of experience of
farmhouse bed and breakfast with Mick’s help set about the task to make ready for ‘pgs’- paying guests. The Grange BB opened it’s doors in 2007 with
3 bedrooms for guests and visiting family and has been an on-going project
ever since. Mary and hubby Mick have devoted the following years to
developing the 4 acres of grounds into a garden of which 3 acres is woodland.
A ’pop-up’ glamping site was developed in 2015 and a local business held ‘hencamps’ in bell tents during the summer months. This was very successful and the demand for bigger groups soon outgrew what Mary and Mick offered here at The Grange.
In 2021 (post lockdown)the idea of Grange Wood Glamping was sown.
A small off-grid ‘pop-up’ glamping site - 'OWL CAMP' -for couples or alternatively a limited availability May-August for groups of family and friends, with sole use of the site with no minimum but a maximum occupancy of up to 14 people under canvas. With additional accommodation for 6/7 in the B&B rooms for those whom ‘off-grid glamping’ is really not their thing.
With a mix of Glamping in luxury belle tents and bed and breakfast rooms,
this is a great place to spend time with your family and friends for that extra special celebration or just a catch-up with your nearest and dearest.
A perfect private space making it possible for friends and all of the family to gather together and meet up in one place.
Contact the owners at The Grange to discuss your requirements.
We are adaptable, approachable and happy to help.
QUIET CAMP after 11pm
Grangewood Glamping has 3 tents, sleeping up to 12, a gypsy caravan sleeping 1-2 available with a 2 metre cedar wood-fired hot tub and basic off grid facilities in the 'camp area' but has additional on-grid facilities in the main buildings (The Mess)
