Trowbridge, England · 51 units · Tents, Motorhomes, Glamping
We are a family run farm situated in the beautiful Frome valley. The farm has a range of interests from the traditional Jersey milking cows to a community of workshops used by local craftsmen. The cafe serves cream teas from Easter to the end of September and pizzas are sold in evenings during the summer months.
Ours is a small family run camp site with the River Frome on one side, next to the medieval buildings of Stowford Farm. The river is suitable for fishing, boating, swimming and paddling. Historic Bradford-on-Avon is only a 5 minute drive and the City of Bath 15 minutes. For those who enjoy more rural pleasures, 200 metres from the campsite Farleigh Hungerford boasts the only river swimming club in the country, and you can become an instant member for a very small fee.

Shire Camping is located in a peaceful 10 acre meadow looking towards Edge Hill. Spacious and with running drinking water, hot showers and flushing toilets. There is a footpath running alongside it taking you 25 minutes to a village shop one way and 20 minutes to a good pub the other way, all across fields. There are some amazing walks to do from the site, and being on the edge of the cotswolds there are plenty of pretty villages and market towns to explore. There are also some well regarded cycling routes in the area.

Monmouth, Wales · 10 units · Tents, Motorhomes
If you’re lucky, you’ll catch at least one of the breathtaking sunsets at Red Sky at Night Campsite near Monmouth. If not, there’s always a stunning view of rolling hills all around. At night, the skies become a dazzling canvas of stars under one of Wales' official Dark Sky Reserves.
This family-run camping field on our laid-back livestock farm is full of rustic charm. Pitch wherever feels right—tent or camper van. Dogs welcome but must always be kept on a lead and cleaned up after (dog waste bin on site, otherwise we are a leave no trace site and you should take your rubbish home with you).
This year, we’re introducing the “Missing Camper Trail” hidden in the woodland—can you find Colin? You’ll also find a new zip line and a slackline for adventurers big and small. Mud Café and den building are still here, along with teddy bears scattered through the woods—no official trail, just hidden friends to find.
Also new this season - a handcrafted washing-up area built by Farmer Ben from wood right off our farm.
Coming soon: We’re hoping for showers this season, but we’ll update when they’re up and running.
Wild camping here means no electricity—just two lovely compost loos and a covered cold-water tap. So bring your guitar, light a fire, and soak up the simplicity... The way camping was intended.

Absolutely beautiful site! Really well looked after and the stream was so lovely. Very quiet even with other campers. David was a great host, came to check we were all okay and settled. Also, very close to town so wasn’t very far to go if we needed anything but far enough away that it was quiet and peaceful.
Would highly recommend this site and would go back if in the area again.

Our second time at Pyntygwyn Woods, very relaxed campsite, we always enjoy the woodland pitches especially in the warmer weather as it affords a bit more shade! Lovely peaceful stay

Lovely site, small and out of the way.
No signal unless you walk up the hill.
Great large showers with perfect temperature water. Probably the best composting loos I've used!
Eloise is lovely and did all she could when the village's water supply was interrupted.

Great little site right on the river — I’ve been coming for years and have always loved how close it is to the pub next door.
I’m aware the site has changed ownership in the last few months, and this could be the start of something really good. That said, a few bits of feedback: the toilets, showers, bins and elsan point, while clean, aren’t at the standard you’d expect for the current price. Last year I was paying £20 per night, so a 75% increase alongside a reduction in services is disappointing. There used to be a shop on-site, and things like logs and firepits were available, which made the stay feel better value.
Although I’m not overly impressed at the moment, I will still be returning multiple times this year, just as I have every year. I’m hopeful that with a bit of attention to the facilities-to-cost ratio, the site can get back to being the great spot it’s always been.

A lovely campsite with a very nice host. We arrived with our self converted camper for the weekend to trial it out- we had no idea our van had the wrong type of electric hookup port on the van but our host kindly helped us with extension leads etc. which was very generous otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to stay! The field is lovely, peaceful and everyone is so respectful. It’s quiet and friendly

Martin is a very good host knows how to make people get the most out of there time on his site. He’s very helpful and a great bloke to have a chat with. The campsite is perfect for a weekend getaway with the choice of a more woodland style campsite or for the family a wider more open field camp. Cheers Martin

A lovely place to stay, facilities are excellent and the views are really good on whichever pitch you decide upon, with 3 options you have a choice of car camping, an open field or a wild flower meadow...fantastic. The Organic farm shop and cafe serve and sell some excellent produce and is a great place to relax, the staff are friendly and very helpful.
My only gripe were the other campers, as it's a free pitch area you can set up where you like which is fantastic until it gets busy then some people with no respect for others privacy or space squeeze themselves in-between those who have already set up reducing the enjoyment slightly and your experience.
My suggestion would be to add a 10 metre distance rule to those pitching up besides those that are already there to avoid any unpleasant situations.
We had someone park/pitch pretty much next door to us with multiple pitches available in the same field which was disappointing.
Overall I would highly recommend it but I would advise to get there early in the better weather.

Weekend Trip to The T Barn
We had such a wonderful stay at the shepherd’s hut and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The setting was absolutely gorgeous, especially with the beautiful weather we were lucky enough to have — it made everything feel even more magical and relaxing.
Everything was explained so clearly on arrival, which made settling in really easy and stress-free. The hut itself was spotless, well thought out, and had everything we needed for a cosy and comfortable stay.
One of the highlights was definitely our meal at The Village Pub — it was honestly the best meal of the trip and made the whole experience feel even more special.
We had the best time and would absolutely love to come back again. Such a perfect little escape to the countryside!
