  • Back to basics rural site in a peaceful Warwickshire meadow
  • Birmingham, Tamworth and Drayton Manor within half an hour's drive
  • A few minutes' walk from a farm shop
Set in a stunning meadow, Nightingales Rustic Camping is a back to basics site in Warwickshire with plenty of room between pitches and well-maintained communal toilet and shower facilities. There are designated spots where you can light up a fire as well (it doesn't get much more atmospheric than sitting together around flickering flames as the setting sun streams over the meadow…). Nightingales Rustic Camping is a few minutes' walk away from a farm shop where you can pick up a whole host of top-quality produce, and it's about a 10-minute drive to nearby Atherstone and its many amenities, which include a railway station, supermarket, restaurants and a leisure centre. Although this site is pleasingly rural in atmosphere, Nightingales Rustic Camping is in a very convenient location – Birmingham city centre, Drayton Manor Theme Park and the market town of Tamworth can all be reached by road in under half an hour.

What customers say

This is a rustic, working farm campsite offering ample space and a relaxed atmosphere. Guests praise the friendly staff, peaceful surroundings, and the on-site farm shop with excellent meat. While the "back to basics" approach is appreciated, some reviews mention the toilet and shower facilities require updating. The site is well-suited for families and those seeking a tranquil escape.

Field stay non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch (large)

Liked We had a brilliant first camping experience at Nightingales Rustic Camping — just me and my 4-year-old daughter. Charlotte was absolutely fantastic, so welcoming, kind and accommodating.

As it was our first time camping together, I was a little unsure of what to expect, but Charlotte made us feel really comfortable and welcome from the moment we arrived. She was so helpful and went out of her way to make sure we had a great stay.

The site has a lovely, relaxed and friendly atmosphere, and it was the perfect place for our first camping adventure together. My daughter absolutely loved it! 🏕️❤️

We’d definitely recommend Nightingales Rustic Camping and will hopefully be back again soon!

The Meadow non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked There were plenty of places to choose from when pitching, which was great. The campsite was peaceful and quiet, exactly what I was looking for. I also liked the facilities area, which had useful amenities including a microwave. Overall, it was a lovely, relaxing place to stay. I liked how there was a solo or relaxed pitch area to what suited you.

Disliked There were only two portable toilets on the field, and unfortunately they were quite smelly at times. It was also a bit of a walk to the main toilet facilities, which wasn’t ideal. The farm shop was quite untidy and looked like it was in the middle of being renovated, so it didn’t feel particularly welcoming during our stay.

Field stay non-electric grass and earth touring pitch (large)

Liked Lovely friendly team. The pitches are on a working farm and thwee are areas fir quiet social and family social you dont want noise you can choose the quiet areas. Pitches are unmarked and they do have a toilet and shower also chemical toilets dotted round the site. I saw a complaint in the reviews that the ground was rough this is because it is a working farm and is farmed when not in use as a camp site during off season. It says a rustic site and it is and that's the beauty of it. I camp solo and felt perfectly safe here.

The Meadow non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Nice open space, plenty of places to pitch. Cleanest porter loo’s I’ve ever seen lol

Disliked Weren’t allowed to do campfires even though the website states that you can. People in the communal area were allowed to play quite loud music until gone 10pm.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Nice site close to home. Would definitely stay again.

Local attractions

There are heaps of options near Nightingales Rustic Camping for busy bees who want to stick to the local area. For a restorative round of the green, take yourself down to Atherstone Golf Club (10 minutes' drive); tiddlers who find the games there rather slow-paced for their liking can be taken to the town's swimming pool (10 minutes) instead. Also close by are Kingsbury Water Park (15 minutes) and Hartshill Hayes Country Park (15 minutes), where there are birds to spot, picnics to be had and a load of nature to take in. More outdoor jaunts can be had at Tamworth Castle (25 minutes), a fearsome Norman fortress overlooking the bustling market town. And don't feel that you have to eschew indoor times just because you're sleeping in the open air – the slopes of SnowDome indoor ski centre (25 minutes) and fab aquatic displays at the National Sea Life Centre (30 minutes) are not to be missed. Kids been on their best behaviour, or need an incentive to keep them that way? The promise of a trip to Drayton Manor Theme Park (25 minutes) should do the job.
