Weekend Trip to Riverside Restful Relaxing Campsite

Really lovely campsite! Beautiful location - toilets were super well maintained, pleasantly surprised by the warm shower and the shampoo/bodywash left out in the bathroom. Had a dip in the river and a campfire, really wonderful experience :)

Weekend Trip to Otter Channel Campsite

We had a lovely, relaxing weekend at the Otter Channel - so much so, we didn’t leave the campsite the whole weekend! Katie was very welcoming and the site itself was very peaceful and sheltered on all sides by dense hedgerows. It’s a beautiful place and is the perfect retreat to unwind and recharge.

Weekend Trip to Daisy May’s Farm

We had a great stay at Daisy May’s farm, met some other lovely families while we enjoyed our first camping trip as a family. Welcoming staff and friendly atmosphere. Lovely time seeing all the animals.

Weekend Trip to Daisy May’s Farm

My family had a great time camping at daisy May's farm, this was our first visit and our first time camping. We loved that we could pitch up where we wanted and the fact there was proper toilets and a shower. the staff were all so lovely, they really engaged with the children particularly the young girl with the horses who kept them occupied for hours and hours. I saw another young man help a family setting up their tent he seemed to have such a great attitude and all staff answered any questions we had about animals or activities. My family all loved spending time with the animals the play area was also a big hit. I can not recommend this place enough and we will be returning in the summer holidays!

Weekend Trip to Otter Channel Campsite

We had a great time at Otter Camp. It was a very chilled out camp, with the pitches all nicely spread out. Sarah was very friendly and helpful.

Weekend Trip to Otter Channel Campsite

Katie runs a lovely peaceful, quiet and clean campsite. We had a remarkable stay there and enjoyed the use of the river, log burner and the convenient little shop which has essential items. Getting away from the rat race, this is the place to go!

7 nights at Farrs Meadow

We loved it. The meadow is beautiful and during our week in May we awoke to the sound of cookoos every morning - joy. We were in the smaller Yurt which was really warm and comfortable. David was really available and bought us wood for the fire when we needed. Classic camping and a wonderful escape from the city! Thanks David.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Restful Relaxing Campsite

This is a beautiful natural location, peaceful, with access to the river for swimming. Andy and his partner are so lovely and welcoming, and great thought has been given to providing little touches to make your stay more comfortable - including a great little kitchen area and communal areas to have fires or barbecues. Perfect!

Weekend Trip to The Barn KT9

Just had the most incredible overnight bivvy experience at KT9 Barn – a true haven for anyone bikepacking or wild camping near London. From the moment I reached out, Charlie’s communication was faultless – warm, welcoming, and full of useful details to make the most of the stay. You instantly get the sense that he genuinely cares about the experience you’re going to have. Already planning my next stay.
