What customers say

This is a peaceful, spacious campsite with generously sized pitches, offering a back-to-basics, natural feel. Visitors praised the clean facilities, particularly the compost toilets, and the convenient 'pantry' stocked with essentials. The friendly and attentive hosts, especially Eva, received consistent positive feedback. A nearby pub and walking routes are easily accessible. Some minor issues included occasional noise from other campers and inconvenience with bin capacity during peak times. The no-car policy on pitches requires the use of provided wheelbarrows.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked A really lovely experience, but far too short as we only stayed the one night. Next time will be longer.

Disliked Just the walk from the car park to the site to carry all the gear. although it was nice the have the use of the wheelbarrows. There was a music festival across fom the site and the music did go far too long, till around 4am....

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Lovely spacious campsite. Cute little pantry for extra treats. Good walks nearby and local pub just up the road for food and drinks. The pub isn't open on Mondays but there is another pub in the next village that is open and very nice.

Disliked Ground was a little bumpy if you plan to sleep without a camping bed or blow up.

There is sheep in the next field that like to run around at night. I wouldn't say this is a dislike, but if I was to camp here again I might move further away from them.

Again, not a dislike.. but there is a cat that walks the field and did try to come inside our tent. We love cats so not a problem but feel it might be worth mentioning if you are not so keen on them. Seemed friendly and a beautiful cat.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Everything so peaceful
what a lovely welcome with some great hints of where to walk to
what a lovely site
if you love basic camping you will love this site

Disliked Leaving !
My only thing I could suggest is perhaps putting a black bin in the field near the entrance as I was so relaxed I didn’t want to walk to the area lol

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Eva was really lovely. Likes the space you get for one pitch. The pantry was a very nice touch!. The toilets were very clean for outhouses! Enjoyed our stay for a wild camping experience.

Disliked My husband struggled sitting properly with the basin attached to the inside of toilet, he felt like it was too high for him to sit comfortably without it touching him but for me it was completely fine.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked The pitches are really spread out so the place is peaceful and we were able to relax and enjoy the views. The toilets were clean and tidy. There is a lovely pub you can walk to in a couple of minutes. Eva was so kind and helpful and recommend an excellent farm shop for breakfast.

Local attractions

Take things off the land and onto the water at the Grand Union Canal (20 minutes’ drive). There, you’ll have the chance to kayak or take a paddleboard down the historic canal line. Afterwards, there are two local market towns where tasty food can be tracked down. Market Harborough (10 minutes) has a huge indoor market and many eateries, and Rothwell (10 minutes) has lots more shops and restaurants. When you’re exploring the local area, stop by Kelmarsh Hall and Gardens (25 minutes’ walk). The historic house has a butler’s pantry, walled garden and tea rooms. National Trust’s Lyveden (half an hour’s drive) is further out and a fine example of a half-finished Elizabethan house. More exciting days out for the family include West Lodge Farm Park (15 minutes), a farm park with pony riding activities, or Wistow Maze (25 minutes), an eight-acre challenge for the family.
