General
- Luxury pop-up site with access to The Ridgeway path in Oxfordshire
- Uffington White Horse 15 minutes’ drive; Barbury Castle 35 minutes
- Off-grid pitches with clear night skies and views of the chalk downs
An enchanting mix of wildness and glamour – that’s the vibe at pop-up Evelyn’s Garden, sitting just off The Ridgeway path as it wends through Oxfordshire. Surrounded by ancient sites, and hiking trails or cycle routes following a former pilgrimage walk, here you can sleep under bright stars, fall in love with the views and replace your alarm call with the song of the dawn chorus. It’s hard to believe that the shops and restaurants of Wantage are only 15 minutes’ drive away.
The glamping accommodation at Evelyn’s Garden is luxurious and highly individual, but is full-on off grid; as this is a completely wild campsite, only a composting toilet and drinking water tap are provided.
There are no showers or washing facilities on site. And no electric hook-up, so there are no lights or electrical ports for your devices. Take a break from social media, and bring torches for convenience after dark and thermals for cosiness – and please take all your rubbish home with you.
Cooking is done either in the camping kitchen or alfresco on the barbecue (logs, kindling and firelighters can be provided for a charge), and you can cosy up around the campfire after dark, perhaps to the strains of a song or two from fellow guests.
Bring your dogs to share in your adventures, but please note they are only allowed to run free on site if their recall is on point – and they must be kept on a lead around the farm due to the free-roaming animals.

Local attractions
Walk sections of the scenic Ridgeway from site, following the chalk hills into the Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. To celebrate all that is ancient and mythical about this corner of Oxfordshire, visit Uffington Castle (15 minutes’ drive) to see the spindly figure of the Uffington White Horse, which was carved into the hillside in prehistoric times.
Close by is the Neolithic long barrow and burial chamber of Wayland’s Smithy (15 minutes), while hilltop Barbury Castle is an Iron Age hill fort, and the Hackpen White Horse (both 35 minutes) is a latter-day folly created to commemorate the coronation of Queen Victoria in 1838.
For a change of pace (the kids might be getting bored with all those old things), take a shine to the very cute alpacas at JADE Alpaca Ranch (10 minutes), or go pat the donkeys, sheep and goats at the Island Farm Donkey Sanctuary (45 minutes). You can also meet and greet more cuddly animals on the farm trail around Farmer Gow’s (15 minutes).

Hello!
Super happy you enjoyed it here!
Im sorry the piglets decided to home in on you guys. They LOVE our guests, but tend to poop where their food is left!
(Where you pitched was on the other side of their food trailer! 🥴)
So, thanks for the feedback, we have now moved their food well away from the pitches! <<< So our future guest need not to worry, and can still enjoy their piglet visits! 🌸
Thanks Giles
Haley and Ursa 🌱
