Woodland camping near Weston-Super-Mare

·

Weston-Super-Mare offers over 560 forest campsites—plenty of choice if you want to sleep under a thick canopy and wake to birdsong. You’ll find woodland pitches ranging from £7 a night up to an average of £79, so there’s something for every budget. Campfires are allowed at most spots, and you won’t struggle to find sites with toilets or space for your dog. For top-rated picks, Pwllyn Farm Camping (117 reviews), Pytingwyn Woods (70 reviews), and Brig's Farm (66 reviews) come up again and again in conversation. Expect days spent hiking through dense trees, wild swimming in clear streams, and even the chance to go horseback riding right from your tent.

The forests here are thick, lush, and full of character—ideal for travellers who want a proper outdoor escape.

We set up our campsite to be a unique place where guests could be as close to nature as possible, while retaining some of the basic comforts of home. Think wildflower meadow with hot showers! We've gone for ultimate peace and tranquility, with a very limited number of pitches mown into the wildflowers with lots of space between. Our remote site is far from roads or light pollution, making for serene starry nights around the firepit. The camping meadow is bordered by woodlands, a small nature reserve, and the gardens of a stunning Tudor manor house, all of which you're free to explore. Nestled in a remote and picturesque corner of West Dorset, the campsite is within easy reach of some of the South West's most stunning spots, from world-famous fossil beaches to neolithic hill-forts.

Happy farmer sitting in a truck in a grassy field
Happy farmer sitting in a truck in a grassy field

This traditional British seaside resort is the place for camping and glamping in Somerset if you want sea, sand and all the fun of the fair as well as easy access to some of the county's most popular attractions. This town on the Bristol Channel saw business boom in Victorian times and it has a Grand Pier, bandstand and plenty of elegant buildings to prove it. Times may have moved on and while it's still the beach that's the main attraction, it's also a fabulous place to pitch if you want to visit Wookey Hole, Cheddar Gorge and the south-west's other treasures. The team at Hipcamp have hand-picked the best campsites in the area for this collection.
