Escape to the peace and tranquillity of the Northamptonshire countryside in one of our luxury adults-only canalside lodges. Whether you're looking to relax, explore or simply switch off, everything you need is right here.
Each handcrafted lodge features a fully equipped kitchen with an oven, grill, induction hob, fridge/freezer, bean-to-cup coffee machine, cookware & utensils. You'll also enjoy a king-size Emma mattress, wood-burning stove, private bathroom, towels, dressing gowns, slippers and plenty of thoughtful touches to make your stay extra special.
Outside, unwind in your own private wood-fired hot tub, enjoy evenings around the fire pit, cook on the BBQ, or simply relax on the decking or hammock overlooking the canal. All fuel for the hot tub, fire pit and wood burner is provided.
Step onto peaceful canalside walks where nature is never far away. Keep an eye out for red kites, buzzards and kingfishers, and if you're lucky, you may even spot an otter swimming along the canal. Each lodge also has its own private fishing peg on a quiet turning point in the canal, meaning you'll rarely be disturbed by passing boats.
A selection of welcoming country pubs and restaurants are just a short drive away, while the attractive market towns of Rugby & Market Harborough can both be reached in around 20 minutes.

Small Farm with riverside. Very safe and quiet.
Dog's more than welcome. The land is fully fenced off for dogs to roam freely if wanted. There is a pond for them to cool down in the summer.
There are toilets and a washing machine. There is also a place to do some washing up if needed.
The campsite is located 5 minute walk away from a bus stop that can take you into Cambridge. We can provide a shuttle if needed.

We loved our stay! Owners were amazing and couldn’t do enough for us. They lit a camp fire in the evening which was a lovely touch and our son enjoyed feeding the pony, chickens and goats and playing with Bear the dog. A very peaceful camp ground, perfect for us, with the added bonus of toilets and showers. They also have access to the river and we enjoyed heading out on our kayak during our stay. Would highly recommend. Beautiful site, beautiful people!

Silas is a great friendly host. When we arrived, he showed us the site and introduced us to the Pony and goats.
His one year old Labrador is cute and playful. We were visited every day to play fetch.
The chickens however, would surround you when food was in sight.
The first night, we were invited to a log fire where we met Silas's partner and father, all lovely people.
All in all, it's a fair site. two communal showers with hot water, a loo under the stars and a washing-up area.
Nights were peaceful, starting with beautiful sunsets.
If you fancy farm-style living, then you will enjoy it.
Thank you, Silas. We had a lovely, relaxing stay.

we loved the site we did camp close to the water but in hindsight the facilities are attached to the house by the gate so was a bit of a trek to and from the pitch but all in all we had a fantastic time Andy was brilliant took us to our pitch and gave us a run down of the site and helped me put with a set of alen keys so i could fix my motorbike thanks Andy 😊👍

Perfect campsite for a weekend of Paddleboarding kayaking and wild swimming. The site facilities are immaculate no matter what time of the day. The river is easily accessible and beautiful. We had the best couple of days and will definitely be returning very soon.

Silas’ place is just wonderful, low tech and high touch, a great base to visit Ely and Ely’s cathedral, Cambridge and wander through the countryside. Slias is very hospitable and easy going, a ‘must meet’ if you’re in the neighbourhood!

Loved it at fire and stars! Really beautiful campsite, wonderful for families. Just the right level of wildness and 'no frills', whilst still having good facilities.
Our family loved it. Our 5 year old was in her element. Loooooved camping amongst the trees, a big site to walk around the young woodland too. Thank you so much!

It's a very pretty campsite, with spacious pitches and clean facilities. There weren't many people and were quite spread out - brilliant that everyone respected the 10:30 quiet time.
We brought our own SUP and were able to enjoy the river.
The shady "fairy garden" saved us when it was really hot! Debs and Hannah were always happy to help and it was easy to get hold of them, nothing ever seemed too much trouble.

Lovely campsite- super friendly and great access to the river for canoeing and swimming! Andy in the shop was especially smiley and helpful and the ability to order breakfast in the morning a real treat. We had a lovely few days - thank you ☺️
