The Mushroom Farm Campsite

36 units · Glamping, Tents11 acres · Oakham, England
Authentic old school camping! Bring your own tent and stay in one our lovely private pitches. Our pitches are big enough to park your car and pitch a large family tent with plenty of space for sitting and BBQs. Our site is off grid so you will be provided with plenty of fresh water in containers. There are compost toilets dotted around the site which are cleaned daily and there is firewood and charcoal available to buy. We also have a little honesty shop selling a few bits and pieces that campers often forget to pack. The mushroom farm feels more like wild camping or a pioneers camp. It is not a manicured site so we recommend bringing an airbed for a comfortable sleep. But a positive you’ll be sharing it with wildlife – frequent visitors include songbirds, red kites, kestrels, owls, bats, lizards, frogs and toads, snakes, rabbits and hares, muntjac deer, mice, foxes, dragonflies, butterflies, moths and beetles… The camp is set on a mushroom farm with young trees and large areas left to rewild. This means flowering thistles and uneven ground so it may not be suitable for babies, very young children or people with health conditions. The 2025 camping season at the Mushroom farm is from Friday the 23rd of May until Sunday the 22rd of June. We are then closed for a few weeks but open again from Friday the 18th of July until Sunday the 17th of August.

Glamping in Rutland guide

Overview

England's smallest county, Rutland is a glamping enthusiast's dream. Nestle into a geodesic dome with a private kitchen and bathroom to enjoy picturesque views of Rutland Water, one of Europe's largest artificial lakes. Glampers can then spend the day sailing, fishing, or bird watching at Rutland Water Nature Reserve. Or glamp near the grandeur of Burghley House in a bell tent or safari lodge that offers the charm of the Elizabethan era combined with modern luxuries. Explore the magnificent house by day, and then retreat to one of these glamping sites that come with plush mattresses, fairy lights, and a private outdoor shower. For even more historically rich camping, visit Fotheringhay Castle in Northamptonshire. Bask in its history right from the grounds in a riverside canvas bell tent, uniquely adorned and furnished with a super king bed, two floor mattresses, and a fully-equipped outdoor camp kitchen. Then, take advantage of the direct access to the river for activities like wild swimming, canoeing, and paddleboarding.
