Surrounded by open countryside, wildlife and far-reaching views, it is the perfect place to unwind and reconnect with nature.
Ideally located for exploring some of the Cotswolds' most beautiful destinations, we are just 20 minutes from the iconic village of Bibury, often described as one of the prettiest villages in England. Historic Cirencester, the capital of the Cotswolds, is nearby, while the market towns of Fairford, Lechlade and Burford are all within easy reach. The beautiful Cotswold Lakes are close by, offering watersports, nature reserves, lakeside walks, cycling routes and opportunities for swimming.
The village pub is just a five-minute walk from the campsite and is renowned for its excellent food and warm welcome (booking is strongly recommended, especially during weekends and holidays).
Guests have access to shared facilities including a fully equipped kitchen, hot showers and flushing toilets, providing comfort while preserving the traditional camping experience.
Our secluded camping field enjoys magnificent golden sunsets across the surrounding countryside and exceptionally dark skies, making it an ideal location for stargazing on clear evenings. Away from major roads and urban lighting, you can relax beside your tent and enjoy the stars, the sounds of nature and the peaceful atmosphere of rural Gloucestershire.
There are gardens to wander, abundant wildlife to spot and numerous footpaths and dog walks directly from the site. Well-behaved dogs are very welcome and will love exploring the miles of countryside surrounding the campsite.
Whether you are seeking a peaceful retreat, a base from which to explore the Cotswolds, or simply somewhere to slow down and enjoy nature, our campsite provides the perfect setting for a memorable stay.

Weekend Trip to Little Fleece at Folly Farm
We had such a lovely stay here and genuinely enjoyed every minute. The outdoor fireplace area was one of our favourite parts, especially sitting by the fire in the evening, and the little table outside made it perfect for eating and relaxing. The hot tub was wonderful too.
What really stood out was how much care had gone into everything. We had everything we needed, and the homemade touches made it feel even more special: fresh bread, homemade biscuits, handmade soap and a lovely breakfast provided for us. Everything was clean, comfortable and very well thought out.
We were also really impressed by the kindness and care of our host. We felt very looked after from beginning to end. Such a peaceful, beautiful place and definitely somewhere we would happily stay again.

We had SUCH a great time staying at Milton Farm Hideaway! We have visited several different glamping sites over the years and this one is by far the best equipped and has the most ideal set up. It's a gorgeous site, the accommodation is beautifully done and really comfortable and the kitchen and bathroom set ups are well thought out and have everything you could possibly need. We barely left the site because we were having such a nice time. We will definitely be back!!

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!

Weekend Trip to Little Fleece at Folly Farm
We had a wonderful weekends stay at Little Fleece at Folly Farm. We were very impressed with the amenities in the very well thought out shepherd’s hut. We had everything we needed and more. The welcome pack and homemade s toiletries were also a pleasant addition, especially the shortbread :). The hosts were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed, even offering lifts to the local village however we enjoyed the walk through the fields. A highlight was being shown around the farm and even seeing a lamb being born!! We used the pizza oven one evening which had easy to follow instructions and fire wood available to fuel and ate at the local pub, the harrow, the another night which we rate highly for food and hospitality. All in all a great stay and would highly recommend.

Superb little shepherd's hut with lovely, thoughtful hosts. They have considered every detail and are attentive, while still giving you plenty of space. Easy-to-use outdoor tub, walking distance to a lovely community boozer and easy access to the ridgeway national trail for 'big sky' views and all your hike/bike/run needs. Plus lambs in the fields in springtime! Strong recommendation, would return in a heartbeat.

Lovely cosy little place! The hosts were as accommodating as possible with homemade bread and shortbread biscuits on arrival which were lovely! Everything was explained fully to us when we arrived from how to work things, where things were, to how to get the wood fired hot tub going. A great overnight stay for me and my girlfriend. Was even treated to having a one day old lamb as a neighbour overnight. As perfect as possible! We'd absolutely stay there again, would recommend 10/10!

We absolutely loved our stay at Jane’s shepherd’s hut. it was the perfect off-grid escape from our busy lives. The hot tub and outdoor pizza oven were definite highlights and made the trip feel extra special.
Jane and her husband were incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and quick to respond whenever we had a question or needed anything. The hut is also ideally located; peaceful and secluded, yet close enough for lovely walks/run and a nearby pub for a quick pint.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing countryside getaway.

Where to go
Wiltshire
Most of the North Wessex Downs lie within Wiltshire, where you can hike, cycle, or horseback ride across open chalklands. Visit the UNESCO-listed Avebury stone circle, explore the Great West Way heritage trail, or marvel at the Wiltshire White Horses, giant chalk drawings etched onto the hillsides. To the south, the world-famous Stonehenge is an easy detour, and there are more hiking opportunities in the surrounding Salisbury Plains.
Hampshire
Downton Abbey fans won’t want to miss a visit to Highclere Castle—the real-life Downton Abbey—in the southeast corner of North Wessex Downs. Explore the surrounding farmlands by bike, stop off at pretty Hampshire villages, or stay at quiet country campgrounds. To the south, the cathedral city of Winchester and the New Forest National Park are less than an hour’s drive.
Berkshire
Newbury and Reading are the gateways to the eastern downlands, where the hillside towns are dotted with thatched-roof cottages and traditional pubs. Take a leisurely boat cruise along the Kent & Avon Canal, stop to browse the markets in Hungerford, or hike the 20-mile Lambourn Valley Way.
Oxfordshire
The northern borders of the North Wessex Downs spill over into Oxfordshire, where highlights include the market town of Wantage and the Uffington White Horse. Continue north to visit the university city of Oxford or take a road trip along the winding country lanes of the Cotswolds, another AONB.
