Bell tent
From £150
This canvas bell tent can sleep up to four people. It'll be ready for your arrival with mattresses and sheets in.
There is no mains power to the bell tent but if you'd like to charge up your phone, laptop or extra lights you can charge them up in the barn each evening.
Each bell tent comes with a private firebowl and if you'd like a rechargeable lantern we'll happily loan one for your stay. The camping meadow is vehicle free so no worries about noise and safety.
Don't worry though, the car park is no more than 100 metres away and we supply big wheelbarrows so you can get your gear between car and camp.
If you like the idea of escaping to nature and getting away from it all without needing a whole lotta luxury, this is your place. (Although, our mattresses are pretty comfy!) We provide mattresses and sheets but ask guests to bring the rest of their bedding - a duvet/sleeping bag + pillow
Grills, coolboxes with ice packs and BBQs are all available upon request.
Bell tent facilities:
We've a block with eco loos in our camping field and a wash stand for dishes and hands.
While we love animals we can't allow pets on site as they stress our alpacas out.
PS. If you're not a fan of bugs, flies, spiders, fresh air, the distant sound of tractors or cows or anything much to do with being outside in the countryside, our site may not be your ideal getaway! We are passionate about spacing out our camping pitches and accommodations so everyone has their own, peaceful space in nature
We'll do everything we can to make your stay at Big Sky as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. We love helping our guests surprise friends and family and making your stay unique so if you have any ideas we might be able to help with don't hesitate to ask :)
Please bring your own towels, duvets, pillows and cooking equipment.

Relaxing wine, reading, hammock and campfire stay
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Really kind, welcoming and courteous hosts. This wasn't your typical campisite it felt much more like a hide away with your own private patch within a meadow, so much so you couldn't see other tents. Facilities were perfectly fine and suited the ethos of the campsite well. The on site bars and llamas were an added bonus 😊
Disliked No dislikes :)

Couldn't have asked for a better family camp
Safari tent
Liked Could not have had a better experience. All the staff go the extra mile to make you feel fully welcome and to meet every possible needs. We stayed there for 2 nights and it was my little girls 1st experience of camping. She loved the safari tent, the wildlife and the difference activities and bar/games social barn with a highlight being feeding the alpacas.
Brilliant experience and will definitely be back.

Good site, welcoming, clean and private
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Private pitches, felt like I was wild camping!
Wonderful welcome and a pizza cooked up for me in the barn which complemented the whole experience. I woke up in the morning and was surrounded by birdsong which was so relaxing to hear.
The facilities were eco facilities and were very good.
The llamas were fun to look at, and Dave and Em were wonderful hosts. They even gave me some milk for my early morning cuppa!

Bell tent
Liked Absolutely fabulous campsite. We loved the way that camping plots have been mown into the long grass, with little trees dotted around, so that you felt cocooned in your own area of nature, and could hardly see other campers from your spot. The mattresses were really comfortable and we all slept so well. Em and Dave are great hosts and we appreciated the firepit and ability to rent a BBQ for the night. Our daughters (10 and 12) loved the routine of each morning going to the barn to buy a coffee, then walking back to our tent for breakfast, and then going to feed the alpacas. Saturday night pizza night in the barn was great too.
This is a perfect campsite if you like family bike rides. One day we cycled from the campsite to join the Water Rail Way Trail to cycle to Boston and back. It's a fab traffic free cycle way with smooth tarmac along the river. The second day we drove to Bardney and picked up the Water Rail Way trail again there, this time cycling to Lincoln and back. Also, the bubble car museum near the campsite is a great place to visit.

Worth the stay, the people and the environment are amazing
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We stayed in our own tent on this campsite, we looked at the glamping options whilst we meandered around the site and they look amazing but just to clarify, we haven't stayed in them.
Before we even arrived we had contact from Dave and Ems, giving us all the info for arrival and what's available.
They provided updates, via whatsapp, whilst we were there to what was available on site for that day and what times (i.e. alpaca feeding, stone painting classes, the barn opening hours, pizza night and the option for plot delivery of items!!!) They literally take customer focus/care to the next level. The staff as a whole are really cool and interesting people who are willing to take the time to chat and help whenever they can, going out of the way to make sure our stay was as good as it could be.
The site was clean, fun and interesting. They give you decent spaces between plots so you arent on top of each other and you really do feel like you are in a tranquil little spot. They have eco toilets (which for my partner was a first but the staff ensure they are cleaned throughout the day) eco showers which had decent power and warm water, if its not sunny then the staff arrange warm water on request.
I'd thoroughly recommend this site and will be going back. I've got family that live nearby and I might just stay here anytime I go and visit them.
Check out the shop. Sit in the barn, play some table tennis and chat with people in a really beautiful environment or go and hang out in the hammocks. Whatever you do, you wont regret it.
They have created a cracker here
