  • Dog-friendly wild meadow site on an organic Buckinghamshire farm
  • A 10-minute drive from Waddesdon Manor; 15 minutes to Aylesbury
  • Values of health and sustainability; farm café from Friday to Sunday
Green-fingered and keen on a getaway that’s got the same values? Pitchcott Hill Farm is such a place, founded on sustainable, organic and biodynamic farming. The large, handsome meadow is part of a friendly, authentic organic farm where the pitches are spaced out for privacy and wildness – that means acres of space (literally, as the field is 14 acres in total). Nature’s at the fore here, that’s for sure, and it all begins in the site’s camping shower, set up inside a hedgerow alongside the meadow. It’s inside a tree, so you’ve got a hot shower just like at home, but with a natural cubicle and wildlife as your viewing window. A firepit is provided here ready for evening time – and for other facilities, there are toilets and charging points. Off site, there are plans of action for both foodies and walking fans alike – first, a whole load of footpaths in the surrounding Buckinghamshire countryside and, just over the fields, a pub in Oving (around 20 minutes’ walk) with a jewel of a menu and beer garden. The local village, Whitchurch (35 minutes’ walk) has shops for everyday essentials and the local farm shop (10 minutes’ drive) is a good place to pick up local and seasonal produce. The aim of the farm is to regenerate the health of the soils, so sustainability, regeneration, woodland creation and environmental protection are all at its core – and the team are grounded in creativity, authenticity and inclusivity for a healthy community feel.

What customers say

This campsite is praised for its spacious, peaceful meadow setting with stunning views and a strong respect for nature. Guests enjoyed the unique hedgerow shower and composting toilets, as well as the option to hire fire pits. The on-site café and proximity to local walks and attractions were also highlights. While generally described as clean and well-maintained, some feedback mentioned basic facilities, occasional noise disturbances, and issues with certain amenities such as the compost toilet latch and shower functionality. Manager replies indicate that specific issues like the gate and shower have been addressed.

Meadow non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Such a beautiful and peaceful location - the perfect escape from it all for a while. The café was great, the staff were very polite and helpful. It was my first solo night away in my camper van (with my dog as well!) and I felt perfectly safe. I will be back!

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked The meadow was great, very peaceful and relaxing. Loved the views

Disliked Being woken up at 1 am with loud screaming and singing over a microphone coming from the barn area. We had to leave as we couldn’t sleep. Most people would go there to get away from noise but unfortunately we couldn’t have a peaceful experience

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked De ruimte, de weidsheid, de rust en het respect voor de natuur wat door de eigenaren werd uitgedragen. Ons ontbijt werd geserveerd op het terras van de bijbehorende lunchroom. Het was heerlijk.

Disliked Eigenlijk was alles perfect. Dat kwam ook door het weer en door het feit dat het niet druk was. Het sanitair is sober en met respect voor de natuur.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Lovely quiet, spacious campsite. We were tucked away in a corner of the field and had a really good space to ourselves.
The hedgerow shower was a wonderful, liberating experience, and the composting loo and cold water sink were absolutely fine.
It was great to be able to book a fire pit and wood, and it kept us warm well into the evening.
We were glad of the rule that we had to take our car back to the car park after dropping off our stuff - very mildly less convenient, but much nicer to have a field without cars.
The owls hooting across the field at night were a special treat!
All in all a great campsite if you just want a quiet simple time.

Bell tent

Liked The bell tents and the location was outstanding. The toilets and showers were spotless and fantastic.

The walk to the local pub was wonderful too!

Disliked Would have been useful to have somewhere to wash things up, a larger sink/tap. Other than that it was grand.

Local attractions

With the Chiltern Hills to the east, there are many trails within reach, and the Phoenix Trail (half an hour’s drive) is one of the highlights. Between Princes Risborough and Thame, this seven-and-a-half-mile route is free of traffic, meaning you’ll get to cycle, walk or horse ride in peace – good conditions to spy on red kites and birds of prey about the area. National Trust properties know a thing or two about a peaceful time, too. Perhaps you’ll want to fly a kite, practise your aim with archery on the Dunstable Downs (35 minutes) or see rare birds at the aviary at Waddesdon Manor (10 minutes)? Boarstall Duck Decoy (half an hour) has just one of four duck decoys remaining in England, too. Now, how about a ride of some type? There are rollercoasters at Gulliver's Land Theme Park Resort (35 minutes) or steam train rides from the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre (10 minutes). Meanwhile, the vehicle of choice at Warner Bros. Studio Tour London (45 minutes) is a broomstick… and in Oxford (50 minutes), a punt.
