A place to unwind in the heart of the countryside. Canalside walks are on your doorstep and nature is never far away - birds of prey such as red kites and buzzards are plentiful, and you may be lucky enough to see otters in the canal.
There's a variety of pubs and restaurants within a short drive, and the market towns of Rugby and Market Harborough area about 20 minutes away.
Unwind in the hot tub, enjoy local beers and ciders or pick from our expertly curated wine list. Our Lodges have their own fire pits and BBQs, and all fuel is provided.
Each lodge has its own hammock, and a designated private fishing peg at a turning point in the canal, meaning that you'll be largely undisturbed by passing boats.

Lovely kind hosts, beautiful views and walks straight from the roundhouse enjoyed by us and our cat Blue. Absolutely magical.
Such a comfortable bed, cosy lights, cooking supplies, folk takes - all you would need. Can't thank you enough!

The chicken hut was very cosy and also had all the mod cons. The view was lovely and the location was great base to explore north wales. We had a tour of the farm and it was clear how much the owners care about the animals.

Quiet and civilised site which reminded me why I love camping. It's not a big site but is well organised with many thoughtful touches. I appreciated the grill set in the log cabin and was impressed by the plant-based washing up liquid (no need to carry your own). The log cabin is compact but had everything we needed. The owners are friendly and manage to be discreet yet somehow on call simultaneously. My one suggestion would be to consider getting a (good) coffee machine for the shop. But, really ... it was excellent, thank you.

The log pod was excellent - great bed and the fridge was nice and cold. BBQ was provided and the little field was perfect for our 7 year old to run around in. We were perfectly placed for kayaking at Aztec Adventures and a trip to Warwick castle. We also walked the 10 mins to Norton Grange which had a lovely play area and beer garden and huge choice on their menu - 20% off for BVCC guests too was a lovely bonus. A really lovely hidden gem of a site - we’ll be back!

5 nights at Magical Roundhouse or Train Wagon
We had a wonderful few nights. A great play to relax and loved the fact that it's so tucked away with so many walks straight out the door. A bonus was seeing the odd supersonic jet emerge at tree level at the end of the Mach Loop. Don't worry, these were a spectacle, not an irritation. Peace and serenity assured here and some wonderful beaches a short car ride away. Recommended!

Where to go
Shropshire Hills AONB
Choose from glamping pods, campgrounds, or full-service caravan parks close to this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty situated on the Wales-England border. The Shropshire Hills AONB is known for rolling hills, working farms, and acres of woodland which can be explored on foot, by bike, or on horseback. Watersports fans are catered to as well, as you can also go canoeing in this inland beauty spot.
Cannock Chase
This Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, just 45 minutes from Alton, is a family-friendly destination that boasts treetop adventure rope courses, horseback riding opportunities, and a network of accessible footpaths and cycling routes for laidback woodland exploration. Set up camp in the AONB proper or opt for a caravan park, glamping site, or campground nearby to make the most of this underrated West Midlands destination.
Peak District National Park
Straddling the border between Derbyshire and West Yorkshire, the Peak District National Park is a walker’s ideal destination that’s also home to watersports spots (like Tittesworth Reservoir), mountain biking trails, and former spa towns such as Buxton and Bakewell. Campers have plenty of options here too, from back-to-basics campgrounds overlooking heather-clad hillside to private caravan parks and glamping sites.
When to go
Like most of the UK, the best time to visit Alton is during the sunnier summer months when it’s warmer. However, spring is also fantastic in this region, as seasonal wildflowers start to bloom and there are fewer crowds. Autumn is a good option for campers who don’t mind the cold or for caravanners looking to make the most of down season prices. Just come prepared for year-round rainfall in this part of the world.
Know before you go
- Alton is home to the eponymous Alton Towers theme park, a great family-friendly destination that gets extremely busy during the school holidays (Easter, July, and August). Visit midweek and outside of these dates for a quieter experience.
- Alton is a small village and, as such, doesn’t have the camping and outdoor supply stores of nearby Stoke-on-Trent or Derby. Stock up before setting up camp in Alton.
- There’s no train station in Alton, so it’s best to arrive by car or the X41 bus. The closest train station is in nearby Uttoxeter.
