Kayaking on the River Brue from the campsite

1 night at Riverside Restful Relaxing Campsite

Andy was a great host. Really welcoming. Camp site is in a great location to explore Somerset and is really peaceful by the river

2 nights at Pytingwyn Woods

Brilliant location and everything it was described as. Would definitely come back.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Restful Relaxing Campsite

Great campsite with super friendly staff. Right next to a beautiful river which is perfect for kayaking / paddle boarding, even saw some kingfishers.

Weekend Trip to Pytingwyn Woods

My 8 year old loves making dens and bases and has heard about wild camping that my wife and I used to do and wanted to do some himself. Since he isn’t quite up to a proper expedition at his age I went looking for a campsite where we could give him a taste of it and found this place. We camped in the woods within a few metres of the river. We cooked over fires and slept under a tarp shelter between trees, boiled water from the river and in his eyes lived in the wilderness for a couple of days. Just what we were after.

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 Primrose Fields Campsite

Really lovely campsite. Very welcoming on arrival and gave us good information about the site and facilities. We loved the field and felt we weren’t on top of other groups. Felt very safe and secure. We will be using again! Thank you very much.

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.

2 nights at Primrose Fields Campsite

Lovely hosts, beautiful field. Incredible field orchids! Well managed site. Will come again!

5 nights at Abbey Home Farm

Abbey Home Farm Campsite is a real find if you’re looking for a peaceful, rural getaway. I loved the quietness and natural feel of the site – it’s surrounded by countryside and feels properly off-grid in the best way. It’s particularly great for families with young children. The site limits cars and doesn’t allow dogs, which made it feel really safe and relaxed for our kids to explore and enjoy the outdoors. There’s a gentle, welcoming atmosphere throughout. The on-site shop and café were excellent – stocked with fresh, organic produce and really tasty food. Everything is thoughtfully done and clearly in tune with the farm’s ethos. I had to delay my trip at the last minute, and the team were incredibly understanding, letting me shift the booking and even stay on extra days. That kind of flexibility and kindness made a big difference. There are beautiful walks straight from the site and plenty of local amenities nearby if needed – although honestly, once you’re there, you might not want to leave. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unplug and enjoy a slower pace in a gorgeous, family-friendly setting.

2 nights at Tomkins Farm

Before we arrived the communication was effective and succinct. We found the property easily and our pitch. We had chosen a ‘glamping’ tent that was clean, spacious and well appointed. It was a beautiful, green, calm and quiet area. Philip gave us a couple of great tips on where to eat locally.

2 nights at Sweet Hill Farm

Great views and quiet spot. Loved being surrounded by sea and horses. Campsite is very basic but clean and organised.

2 nights at Red Sky at Night Campsite

We loved our time there. Beautiful view. Family friendly. Good communication. Very close to cider farm, castles and ice cream farm so a very good spot for us. Have to plan for no shower on site but that adds to the fun.

1 night at Sweet Hill Farm

Lovely welcoming campsite. Easy access to beautiful coastal walks. Horses were a wonderful added bonus. Loved the rural feel. Will defo be coming back.

5 nights at Tomkins Farm

We loved staying at Tomkin's Farm! We were there for 5 nights and, despite some stormy weather, it was brilliant. Philip's site has the perfect location; we love all the llamas, sheep, the camels and the wildlife. We also really enjoyed the breakfasts, burgers and pizzas cooked on the campsite! Best egg in a bap ever :)

2 nights at Chalky Downs

We had a really nice stay (despite the weather!) at Chalky Downs. The campsite has everything you need and all the facilities were always very clean even though it was a busy bank holiday. Sharen, the host, is lovely, so friendly and welcoming! We will be back I’m sure :)

Weekend Trip to South Dean Camping

Amazing views, clean and tidy facilities, would definitely stay again!

1 night at Shire Camping

Great spot for a weekend camping. Lovely site that is well looked after. Harry was a welcoming host and the site hits just the right balance with all the facilities you need with compromising the feeling of simple camping. We will visit again.

Weekend Trip to Shire Camping

Lovely well-maintained site. Quiet and spacious. We liked the meadow feel between pitches, good toilets and showers, plus the pop-up pizza oven was a fab bonus!

Weekend Trip to Panpwnton Campsite

Lovely campsite, in a lovely setting. 10 min walk into Knighton, 30 minute drive to Llandrindod Wells. Fire pits available to hire, lovely toilet/shower block. I’m sure we will be back 😀

1 night at Tomkins Farm

Good facilities, plenty of space between pitches, great location for walks, farm animals and local activities

Summers Camp

51 units · Tents9 acres · England

Whether you’re exploring down the local footpaths that crisscross the countryside or tracking down ponies and canoeing ventures in the New Forest National Park, a stay at Summers Camping by Pitching It will help you tune into your adventurous side. This spacious site is spread over 10 acres of Dorset countryside, with many corners left over to nature. That means you can expect to see wildflowers and birds around the place and find lots of opportunities to get out and explore more. This pop-up site is in the small village of Burton, a 10-minute drive from England’s south coast and the New Forest National Park. Summers Camping by Pitching It is an off-grid site so you should get dark skies at night, but LED fairy lights create laidback festival-style vibes (as well as making a great backdrop for your holiday selfies). Acoustic entertainment is also occasionally on the agenda. It’s safe to say that this friendly site also has good amenities including hot showers, toilets, a coffee cart and an occasional pop-up bar. Food vans often visit the site, which is good news for those seeking easy meals at the end of a busy day. If you'd rather cook for yourself, hire a firepit and get grilling (logs and firewood are also sold on site). As for the location, well, things are indeed convenient. The site is under a mile from two pubs, a post office and a convenience store, and there’s a pick-your-own farm shop and bakery five minutes’ drive away. Nearby seaside spots like Avon beach and Highcliffe Castle can be reached in about 10 minutes, while the stunning South West Coast Path starts about 10 miles west in Poole (30 minutes’ drive).
