Campsites with swimming in Malvern Hills AONB

·

Looking for a swimming spot in the Malvern Hills AONB? You’ll find over 240 campsites here with direct access to wild swims—think river dips and pond plunges, not just heated pools. Prices start as low as £9 a night, with an average around £100, so there’s something for every budget. Top picks include the lush meadows and stream at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite (185 reviews), the peaceful woodland setting at Hamperley Hideaways (79 reviews), and the secluded ponds of Pytingwyn Woods (70 reviews). Facilities often include toilets and showers, and many sites welcome pets. You can hike through ancient beech woods, fish in clear streams, and end the day with a swim under the hills’ wide skies. Pack a towel—and maybe your wellies.

Monmouth, Wales · 10 units · Tents, Motorhomes
If you’re lucky, you’ll get to see at least one of the amazing sunsets at Red Sky at Night Campsite near Monmouth – but if you don’t, there’s mighty compensation in the shape of the spectacular views from just about everywhere on the site. And of course, on clear nights, the night skies are diamond-bright with stars - we are under one of Wales' Dark Sky Reserves! This family-run camping field on a livestock farm is managed on very laidback lines. Pitch up wherever you like and feel free to park by your tent (weather permitting). Raised campfires are allowed and you can hire firepits and grills (the owners sell local eggs & sausages) and buy bags of wood & kindling. You can bring your dogs too (take them for walks in the adjoining woods) but just be sure to keep them on a lead. Kids are certainly carefully looked after here. Get a fact sheet on arrival and join mini-campers in wildlife hunts through the trees, looking out all the while for buzzards and red kites. Round and about the site, your offspring can entertain themselves on rope swings, making dens and following a mini-tractor course across the camping field. There’s also a football pitch. Wild camping this may be (there’s no electricity on site, please note) but there are two nicely designed compost loos and a covered sink areas with fresh water tap. So bring your guitar, light that fire, break out the barbecue and enjoy the chilled vibe.
