Weekend Trip to Pytingwyn Woods

What a gorgeous site - at one side a babbling brook, that you can hear as you fall asleep, to pairs of Red Kites and Buzzards wheeling overhead - and flocks of Goldfinches hopping about the grasses in the meadow and field. The weather was very good and I fell asleep watching bats and the moon rise, with the van door open all night. There's already stone fire pits, a compostable loo, and a lovely area where you can pitch up and enjoy the woods and the area, in peace and quiet. David is the owner and is lovely, so very helpful, which I appreciated loads. I can see why this little slice of heaven has been nominated for awards - and I'd suggest that people come and visit to try it out for themselves.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Restful Relaxing Campsite

Excellent campsite and facilities ! Will book here again for sure

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.

2 nights at Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Good toilets and nice hot showers. Well supplied washing up services. Spacious and well maintained campground.

2 nights at Chalky Downs

Beautiful view and a very quiet secluded campsite but with great transport connections to Brighton!

Weekend Trip to Cotswolds Camping at Holycombe

So quiet and peaceful. The property was really beautiful

Weekend Trip to Hook Farm Campsite

Great place with the basics- that’s all you need when camping. Lovely setting

Weekend Trip to Primrose Fields Campsite

Very welcoming and lovely atmosphere, I forgot my pillows and was kindly lent some for the evening, first time taking my dog camping and he loved it and so did I! Will be coming back again soon for sure :)

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 Panpwnton Campsite

This campsite is kept really well and it’s clear that it’s been treated as a business by the owners, facilities are very clean and great shower/toilet block. There’s a great walk by the river/woods close by. We really enjoyed the stay.. would recommend!

4 nights at Chalky Downs

Genuinely could not fault anything about this site. Beautiful views, great amenities and owners that could not have been more accommodating. Truly a wonderful campsite and easily the best in the area. Quick bus into brighton just outside too.

3 nights at Abbey Home Farm

Lovely, peaceful campsite. All of the facilities were well maintained. The countryside views were lovely and it was so good to be close to the farm shop. Would definitely visit again!

Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

Lovely camp site and very welcoming hosts! We stayed in the Foxglove tent and it was lovely. The communal kitchen has excellent amenities. There was an oven, gas hob, pizza over, bbq, plates, crockery, cutlery and things to wash up! You have your own cupboard, fridge and shower/toilet which was great! Easy to get to and not far from some great hiking spots. We had a great time and would stay again 😊

Weekend Trip to Abbey Home Farm

Beautiful setting. If you want to get back to nature this is the place for you! We were a large family group celebrating three birthdays and it’s perfect to pitch up for campers and campervanners. The toliets are great and the shower was hot. My only feedback is to sort out the temperature of both showers so they run at a decent temp. One was cold and the other was too hot. And more bins on site so you can recycle more easily - food / non food. You’re encouraged to recycle at home as it’s a greenfield site. We’ll be back for sure!

Weekend Trip to Penn Meadow Farm

We had a great weekend on the campsite, beautiful setting, lots of space to pitch your tent and have a camp fire. Great pub just down the road, only negative was the toilet/ shower block was sometimes quite busy but other than that I’d highly recommend and will be returning again in a few weeks!

3 nights at Brig's Farm

Really lovely chilled camp. The showers are fantastic. It isn’t crowded so everyone has a great view. Our dog was welcomed! We had such a great time. Thank you!

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 Radcot Leisure on Thames

Lovely quiet little campsite, not very busy even in kids holidays. Gorgeous setting on the river. Car parking plentiful. Just the one pub and little shop, and no supermarkets within walking distance, so bring all your supplies with you. Toilets are very clean, showers are clean but very erratic haha

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!

Red Sky at Night Campsite

11 units · Motorhomes, Tents10 acres · Monmouth, Wales

If you’re lucky, you’ll get to see at least one of the amazing sunsets at Red Sky at Night Campsite near Monmouth – but if you don’t, there’s mighty compensation in the shape of the spectacular views from just about everywhere on the site. And of course, on clear nights, the night skies are diamond-bright with stars - we are under one of Wales' Dark Sky Reserves! This family-run camping field on a livestock farm is managed on very laidback lines. Pitch up wherever you like and feel free to park by your tent (weather permitting). Raised campfires are allowed and you can hire firepits and grills (the owners sell local eggs & sausages) and buy bags of wood & kindling. You can bring your dogs too (take them for walks in the adjoining woods) but just be sure to keep them on a lead. Kids are certainly carefully looked after here. Get a fact sheet on arrival and join mini-campers in wildlife hunts through the trees, looking out all the while for buzzards and red kites. Round and about the site, your offspring can entertain themselves on rope swings, making dens and following a mini-tractor course across the camping field. There’s also a football pitch. Wild camping this may be (there’s no electricity on site, please note) but there are two nicely designed compost loos and a covered sink areas with fresh water tap. So bring your guitar, light that fire, break out the barbecue and enjoy the chilled vibe.
