  • Quiet camping in the Wye Valley three miles from the Welsh border
  • On a working farm 15 minutes' drive from the Wye Valley
  • Fire bowls and fuel for hire/sale; lake on site for fishing
Go on and treat yourself to a quiet time at Burhope Farm Campsite, a working farm site near Orcop in Herefordshire, where the scenery is stupendous and the by-night stargazing stellar. Even beginners should get a nibble at the carp-crammed fishing lake here – but if fishing's not your thing, you can simply lie beside the lake or on one of the rustic benches with a book or your own thoughts… When venturing off site, the farm is close enough to Herefordshire's and Shropshire's old market towns and active outdoor options for day trips, but peaceful enough for countryside unwinding and rural strolls in every direction: the Forest of Dean and the Brecon Beacons National Park are both within driving distance and the Wye Valley National Landscape is just a 15-minute drive away. Pitches are in a wide open field with wide open countryside views and access to a drinking water tap every two pitches, plus chemical disposal nearby and grey water disposal. If you're the sort that hopes for first-class amenities on a site too, you're sorted: the centrally heated loo and shower block, disabled facilities and recycling facilities on site are all immaculately maintained. Burhope Farm Campsite welcomes well-behaved dogs.

What customers say

This adults-only campsite is highly praised for its peace, tranquility, and beautiful countryside views. Visitors consistently highlight the immaculate cleanliness of the facilities, spacious pitches, and the exceptionally friendly and helpful owner, Pip. The site offers a dog walking field and a fishing lake. While some guests noted that WiFi and other amenities incur a charge, and access roads can be narrow, the overwhelming sentiment is positive, with many expressing a desire to return. Some minor issues with flies were noted during exceptionally high temperatures, which the manager addressed.

Liked We enjoyed a peaceful, relaxing break at Burhope Farm Campsite. A warm and friendly welcome from Pip and staff, spacious pitches and clean toilets and showers. Ideal location to visit Ross-on-Wye and the walk from campsite up to Garway Hill is a must!

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Second stay at this lovely, chill adults only campsite. Plenty of space and views, beautiful little pond with lillies and wildlife. Shower block is heated, clean and a good size for the amount of pitches- stayed bank holiday weekend and it was never busy. WiFi is available at a charge but frankly we used it as an excuse to disconnect. Pip (proprietor) is an absolute darling and we’ll definitely be back again! Excellent fish and chips nearby and a pub for a cheeky pint whilst you wait. Hereford about half an hours drive away. Honestly couldn’t ask for more, super relaxing long weekend.

Disliked Not a dislike but a note, the electric hookups for the tents are shared, so bare this in mind depending on the length of your cable!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review and see you again soon.

Will be wanting to go back for a longer stay!

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Stunning scenic campsite, wonderful facilities, superbly clean with friendly, happy and bubbly owner and staff. Stayed on a fully serviced hardstanding pitch in our trailer tent. Electric hook up, with light and water on tap really close to pitch so no need for extra long electric wires. Loved the safety of coded/gated entrance, on a stunning working farm, waking up to beautiful scenery with a short walk to the lake on site, complete with carp, Canadian geese, grey herons and moorhens roaming around. Information for local services and shops/pubs etc on arrival and option to purchase campsite WiFi as no signal in immediate area (which was lovely for us to switch off)

Disliked Not having longer there

Local attractions

History and fishing, canoeing and cycling, pottering around market towns and clambering over old old castles are all handy in Herefordshire, Shropshire and over the border in Powys and east Wales. The fishing in this area is a pull for anglers who come to try their luck at salmon, trout and coarse fishing on the River Wye. Pike of up to 30lb are landed from the Wye each year and it's said by those in the know to be one of the best rivers in Britain for bagging barbel. If you don't fancy fishing, paddle a canoe or kayak along the river on a self-guided or guided trip available from one of the many watersports operators in the area. More canoeing and fishing day trips – and mountain biking, hiking and horse riding – are at the nearby Forest of Dean. Both sides of the England/Wales border have more than their fair share of ancient castles to see – possibly because of all the ancient fighting between the two lands – and really it'd be wrong to come to these here parts without seeing at least one of them. On the English side, thirteenth-century Goodrich Castle, eleventh-century Wigmore Castle and fifteenth-century Hampton Court Castle and Garden (no, not the Henry VIII one) are the ones to view; on the Welsh, go south to super Chepstow Castle or west into the Brecon Beacons for castle ruins at Hay and Carreg Cennen.
