Best camp site around. David was so friendly and so nice to be close to woodland and such a nice river. Can’t wait to return

Weekend Trip to Pytingwyn Woods

Absolutely beautiful spot. The river running through was the cherry on top. Feels very wild with only a couple of other campers which we barely saw. 100% recommend :)

1 night at Eden's Nook

Lovely welcome. Great facilities for this small and quiet site. Have the option for a cooked breakfast is a great option.

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

What a wonderful, peaceful camp- all to ourselves! Dreamy. A proper wild camp, no running water and a compost toilet but so peaceful and George the horse is gorgeous

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

Lovely spot to camp by the river! David came out and said hello a while after I arrived. Basic facilities but exactly as advertised

1 night at Hardyes Countryside Camping

Lovely quiet campsite with good facilities. Christopher was very knowledgeable about the local area and really helpful. Our kids loved it, we would stay again!

3 nights at The Enchanted Wilderness

Lovely campsite!! Just how we like it! At one with nature and spectacular views!! The host was lovely and was easy to contact.

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

Very nice and chilled field, quiet and peaceful. There is a limited amount of hard standing if it is muddy, plus a single composting loo

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

Beautiful spot, perfect for the dogs, and generous with free firewood. Would definately stay again.

Weekend Trip to Hardyes Countryside Camping

Brilliant, quiet campsite. Excellent for dogs. Very clean showers/toilets etc. Very welcoming host. Excellent walking from the campsite and lots of walking opportunities within a 5/10 minute drive. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Spring Field Dark Skies Eco Camp

Our first time camping as a family, which was all very ad hoc because we had bought a 2nd hand textbox classic on the same day and were looking where to try it out on the way back to mid Wales. Gorgeous views, and James was so lovely and approachable and we felt very welcome. He even spent time after we left searching for our daughter's lost gingerbread man toy (which has only just turned up safely at home!). The views over the plains and hills were astonishing and the toilets on site really clean and nice to use. Lots of lovely places to walk nearby as well. Thank you James for making our 1st camping so great!

Weekend Trip to Spring Field Dark Skies Eco Camp

Loved my stay - the view is incredible and worth it for that alone. It was a last minute booking to make the most of the sun but I’ll absolutely be back for a longer stay. It’s a small field with pitches around the perimeter, and as a solo camper I felt extremely safe. James was lovely too!

Weekend Trip to Woodside Country Park

The campsite was very pretty and secluded, and the lake was lovely too! The bathrooms were also clean and there were a few great walks around. The hosts were also lovely! Would absolutely come again.

2 nights at Eden's Nook

Eden's Nook is such a peaceful campsite..full of birds during the day and star viewing at night. The facilities are great, including the barbeque hut and Jane and Neville couldn't have been more helpful. And Jane's breakfast is delicious! We'll be back!

5 nights at Pytingwyn Woods

I absolutely loved it here, very peaceful and I could sut for hours listening to the river and wildlife David the owner popped in to check everything wad OK and what lovely guy to talk to. I will ge back....

2 nights at Pytingwyn Woods

We had a lovely couple of evenings. It’s very peaceful with a friendly horse nearby and a gentle stream. Near enough to town to nip in for supply’s, but far away enough to enjoy the peace and watch the stars. We’d love to come back.

Cornish Tipi Holidays & Camping

168 units · Glamping, Motorhomes, Tents20 acres · Cornwall, South West England

Wake up to the sound of birdsong, go swimming before breakfast in the clear water of a secluded lake. Cook your bacon and eggs over an open fire while you plan your day, or just laze it away in the peace and quiet of your own personal tipi. You can always go fishing tomorrow, and walk along the cliffs the day after that… The site is a unique woodland valley folded around a clear, spring-fed lake created from the old Tregildrans Quarry. Our tipis and tent pitches are dotted about this secret 20 acres full of ferns, bluebells, oak and meadowsweet. Left in peace for many years there's been no modern chemicals or poisons on the land, meaning we've got bluebells, dormice, Red Admirals and shy woodland Jays for you to spot. It’s a place set apart from the rush and clutter of the modern holiday experience, with an atmosphere that makes you forget the world outside, and just lounge, ramble, or potter about in a boat. We're committed to giving you a genuinely individual service from first contact to your time staying with us. We established CTH in 1996. This was the first and we believe still is the best tipi holiday site in the UK. We know our area inside out and can always help with local knowledge or contacts if you need them. We want to offer our guests a sustainable holiday. A return to real camping means the lowest possible impact on the land and environment - our tipi poles don’t even break the surface of the earth. Your footprint while here could only be bettered by a survival expert. You don't have to fly! a major bonus, and we source all our wood, fish and canvas locally and work with local people wherever possible.

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.
