Family glamping near Warwick

·

Warwick is located in the West Midlands region of central England, just south-east of Birmingham and near the world-famous birthplace of William Shakespeare, Stratford-upon-Avon. Indeed, it shares a river with Shakespeare’s town, the River Avon, on the banks of which sits the imposing Warwick Castle, the city’s most popular tourist attraction. Campers can find places to pitch a tent, park a caravan, or stay in a cabin or safari-style tent within the town and in the surrounding area, which is dotted with historic villages and farmland. Warwick is also well-situated for visiting the Cotswolds, a scenic area south of the town.

Glangwdi Glamping

132km from Warwick · 6 units · Glamping · Brecon, Powys, Mid Wales
Glangwdi Glamping offers furnished bell tents in sight of Pen y Fan, the Brecon Beacon’s highest peak. For some, that alone will be reason enough to book but for others there are further temptations. The site is 2.5 acres. Take, for example, Glangwdi’s pygmy goats. There’s a daily opportunity to meet these little farmyard friends and there are ducks and chickens too. And, as if that’s not enough, this flat field in the foothills is just five miles from bustling Brecon and a short walk from woods, waterfalls and wild swimming. The bell tents themselves are yet another attraction. There are six; each pitched around the edge of a neat field on a family farm. Woven hazel fencing ensures a little privacy for each camping couple or family – this place is equally suited to both. Children will love the cute pygmy goats and adults… well let’s face it, they will love the pygmy goats too. But they’ll also love the fact that you can hike straight from site to the top of 886-metre Pen y Fan and its twin peak Corn Du. And who wouldn’t enjoy a campfire under the stars, in the shadow of the Beacons? The five and six metre bell tents are each kitted out with beds, bedding and log-burning stoves. Outside, each has the off-ground fire pit and outdoor seating regular glampers will have come to expect but there’s an added extra too: a private camp kitchen, that’s also canvas covered. It provides a sheltered place to cook and dine when the weather’s wet and welcome shade when this open field is bathed in summer sun. On such days, this is just the kind of scenic spot that could tempt you to stay on site all day but if you’re feeling adventurous the mountains will soon lure you away. Hiking, biking and wild swimming (try Llyn Cwm Llwch on way up top) are all on offer here. Closer by, Held Wood is a local favourite for walks with a series of small waterfalls within it. The Taff Trail offers well-signposted routes – towards the peaks in one direction or along country lanes to the market town of Brecon in the other.

Where to go

Birmingham

England’s second-largest city, Birmingham is less than an hour’s drive north of Warwick, making the Warwick area a handy place to stay for day trips into Birmingham, whether to see a concert or to stock up on supplies. Camping options within Birmingham city itself are limited, but there are many places to stay on the outskirts of the city, where the urban sprawl gives way to villages and farmland.

Stratford-upon-Avon

A short drive south-west of Warwick, Stratford-upon-Avon is a famous little town that’s a must-visit for anyone interested in English literature and drama. Campers can pitch a tent (or bring their caravan) to a riverside caravan park and cycle through the town, stopping at the many Shakespeare-related attractions, including Shakespeare’s Birthplace, Anne Hathaway’s House, and theatres.

The Cotswolds

Around an hour’s drive south of Warwick you’ll find the start of the Cotswolds, a large scenic area of villages and rolling farmland that’s a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Parts of the Cotswolds fall in Warwickshire, although the large area spreads over several counties. There are many places to camp in the Cotswolds, with farmstays, yurts, safari-style tents, and quirky cabins among the offerings.

When to go

Warwick experiences cold winters with occasional snow, and mild summers with long days. The best time to camp in Warwickshire is the warmer months, between May and September, when camping in a tent or unheated vehicle would be comfortable. Many caravan parks close for the winter season, although those with accommodation in warmer, more permanent structures sometimes operate year-round.
