Small dog-friendly site on the banks of the river Severn
Adjacent to the Severn Way and half an hour’s walk from the canal
Wildlife haven within walking distance of pubs and Frampton on Severn
Craving a peaceful time filled with wildlife watching, long walks and relaxing by the water? On the banks of the River Severn, Baldwin’s Brook Glamping in Gloucestershire fits the bill.
This small site is a wildlife haven adjacent to the Severn Way, a long-distance trail which traces the river downstream. Birdwatching prospects are excellent here, and there’s plenty of peace if you’d rather sit and relax by a firepit or check out the stunning views and sunsets. The site is part of a working family farm with lots of livestock.
From the farm, it’s a 45-minute walk to Frampton on Severn, which is home to the longest village green in England and the lively Frampton Country Fair (think funfair… and 400 stalls full of good stuff). Baldwin’s Brook Glamping is also half an hour’s walk away from the Cotswold Canal Trust Visitor Centre by The Gloucester and Sharpness Canal if you’d like to grab a spot on a boat trip or sip a coffee by the canal.
When you'd rather have a chilled beer, two pubs are within half a mile of the site (only 10 minutes’ walk away). Strike up a conversation with a local about the next Severn Bore, the huge tidal wave which races for 25 miles from Awre to Gloucester down the estuary just a handful of times per year.

Weekend Trip to Foot of the Downs
Me and my partner stayed at Skylark pod and it was very nice, lovely scenic getaway for our anniversary. The bed was comfy and the shower was very good. The only issue was there was quite a lot of dust cobwebs around so it wasn’t as clean as we expected. The sofa is also very uncomfortable. Would recommend though.

We had a fantastic stay at Cosy Camping. The pod was immaculately clean and super cosy. It felt luxurious having our own toilet and shower in the pod, the kitchen was well equipped and it was just what we were looking for in an autumn glamping trip. The site itself was great with loads of space to run around and play. We hope to return!

We had the most amazing overnight stay at the Shepherd’s Hut with our three young children and our dog. Laura gave us the warmest welcome - she was so friendly, helpful, and made us feel completely at home right away. The hut itself was spotless, beautifully presented, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could possibly need.
The kids absolutely loved exploring the surroundings, and it was such a safe, peaceful space for them to run around and enjoy the fresh air. Our dog was just as happy - plenty of room for walks and a truly pet-friendly atmosphere.
Evening by the firepit under the stars was magical, and waking up to the sound of birds and stunning countryside views was the perfect escape from everyday life.
Laura went above and beyond to make our stay special. We honestly didn’t want to leave!

So much thought and effort has gone into making the stay a unique experience. The pod decor is quirky and fun, the hot tub area private and tranquil, and the snack caravan is so cute!
Such a lovely place to stay whether in a pod of camping, would highly recommend.

We had two excellent nights at Oak Pod. The boys (my three grandsons) really enjoyed themselves. The hot tub kept them amused and the campfire finished off their nights with the obligatory s'mores.
The pub down the road was handy and the food good. We also spent an evening at the Indian on the way to Aylesbury.
The pod was clean, well appointed, great shower, everything was there.
Overall a fantastic break with my favourite boys

If you want peace and quiet with nature, thats the spot. The "pod" was better than 5* hotel in bath. No seriously. Looked after, has everything you need. Enough space (for 2), possible 4 i would say. Needed more forewood, Angela replied within few minutes. Amazing host. If things will turn different will be coming back. Absolutely loved it.

Thank you so much to Matt and his family for a wonderful stay. The cabin was clean and we loved the little touch of the welcome gifts. We were so pleasantly surprised by the space around the cabin and the privacy we had. It was such a great space for children to run around in. It is so special that there is only one cabin as so many farms have numerous, we loved the private feel. Our only comment is that as a group of 4 adults and 1 child, we felt it was about as packed as we would like it. The bunk beds are very small for adults but we made it work.
Fabulous that there was an air fryer available. Could do with some more outdoor cooking equipment like tongs, grills and oven gloves. But we all had a great stay and would love to visit you again in the near future.

Helen was a great host, e mailing a really useful handbook, about the Lodge, & area.
I appreciated the fact that all the essential items like soap, dishwasher tablets, salt, pepper, teabags etc etc were supplied…! A great base to enjoy visiting an interesting area.

Where to go
Milton Keynes Countryside
Enclosed by lush valleys, forest reserves, and vast parkland, you don’t need to travel far outside of Milton Keynes to experience the Great British Outdoors. Hunker down by the tranquil lakes of Emberton Country Park, get back to camping basics at one of the nearby working farms, or experience classic British touring at one of the region’s holiday parks.
Aylesbury Vale
Reaching out from Milton Keynes towards Oxford in the west and the Chilterns in the south, this Buckinghamshire valley region is best known for its historic villages, sprawling fields, and secluded countryside campsites. Hipcampers with kids shouldn’t miss a day trip to Aylesbury, home of the Roald Dahl Children’s Gallery.
Oxford
Since you’re only an hour away by road, why not drop by the historic university city for a punt on the Isis and pint in a pretty beer garden? There are some good campsites just outside of town too, including glamping and farm camping, so perhaps you could be tempted to stay for another pint!
Chiltern Hills AONB
There are few sights more quintessentially English than that of the undulating Chilterns, and it’s a sight best soaked up on a walk, cycle, or horse ride along the many nature trails that stretch between the region’s royal mansions. Plus, the area is about 45 minutes away from Milton Keynes, Oxford, and London, making it a great stopover spot.
The Cotswolds AONB
One of Britain’s greatest outdoor attractions, the idyllic Cotswolds is made up of picturesque villages, historic landmarks, and miles and miles of unspoilt nature. About a 90-minute drive from Milton Keynes, the region is a great option for a weekend of biking, hiking, or just taking it easy far away from the city.
When to go
Spring and summer are the most popular times for camping here, though be aware that the Great British Weather cannot be foretold, so prepare for pouring rain in summer and bright sun (and rain) in winter. Don’t be put off by the wet weather—if you’re fine with a little mud, there’s a lot to be enjoyed about a Buckinghamshire winter, including stunning snow scatterings, hearty pub lunches, and quieter campsites.
Know before you go
- Public transport is generally camper-friendly in the UK, but aim to travel with gear outside of peak hours.
- If you’re on a tight schedule, it may be worth bringing or renting a vehicle.
