What customers say
Springfield Woods offers a peaceful, nature-focused escape with spacious, well-maintained pitches and a strong "wild camping" feel. Guests frequently praise the friendly and helpful owners, the beautiful woodland setting with a stream, and the excellent facilities for children, including a fire pit area and den-building opportunities. While most found the facilities adequate and clean, some noted issues with the single composting toilet and waste management. The parking being a short walk from pitches was seen as a positive by many for enhancing the tranquil atmosphere.

Lovely stay at Springfield Woods. Would definitely come again!
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Lovely quiet area and excellent trees for a hammock. We were the only ones here for a couple of nights and owner was happy for us to have some visitors.
Disliked Had some issues with a couple piles of dog waste on our plot but nothing that can’t be picked up.

A lovely site, perhaps a little more attention to details required
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Lovely location based in lovely woodland. Only a few pitches in easy reach of the cars which are left parked up in a field near the farmhouse. The outside shower was lovely (but it was the hottest day of the year so far on our stay)
Disliked Plenty of space in between the pitches, but when we stayed a couple of families knew each other and the children kept running past our tent to go play which did infringe on our privacy. We were well informed about the eco loo - but felt it was neglected a little on the maintenance side, as well as the rubbish building up on site.

Beautiful place for some relaxing time with the family.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Omg where do we start this place was an amazing find well worth the visit, quiet and peaceful set amongst the trees and wildlife with a stream running through. We met up with friends for the weekend the kids had plenty of things to do exploring the woodland areas playing in the dens etc.
We went to a lovely little cafe just up the road called lazy beans would highly recommend for a spot of lunch 10/10 from the kids for the milkshakes.

Fantastic small campsite with woods and streams and lovely hosts
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Lovely hosts, loved how quiet it was, really pretty and ideally placed to visit local attractions. We rented hammocks and even saw a heron 10 feet from our tent!
Disliked Slight hill from the car park down to the pitch - but trolleys were provided and it added to the adventure :)

Beautiful, tranquil site for a wholesome couple of family nights
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Absolutely lovely, peaceful site, with an amazing host & lots for children to do who enjoy nature. We have 2 boys, 1 dislikes being away from home and he loved it so much he didn’t want to come home & has cried since because he wants to be back there. Such a magnificent site to enjoy nature and relax. Thank you Ruth for being so patient helping the boys with their fire, they absolutely loved the fire pit, collecting kindling sticks, den building and the slack line, swinging in a hammock in nature is obviously very grounding and calming, we will absolutely be back 👍🏻😊
Disliked Nothing!

Beautiful site
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked The layout was beautiful and the sense of care and attention the owner gave to campers and place.
Highly recommended for the site and eco values.
Disliked The composting toilet was a bit overused. I think another toilet or two would take some of the strain off the single toilet (and the composting system).
The cars at night.

Great pitches beside a small stream and plenty of space on the pitches
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked What a little gem of a campsite. Tucked away just outside of Hull. Site was very clean and well looked after, small wood for kids to play have fun and build dens. A great communal fire pit with pick Nick tables. Composting toilet was good and clean. Shower was fine too. The owners Dave and Ruth were very welcoming. We shall be back very soon for another chill out!! Shush don’t tell everyone:-)
Disliked Nothing all was fab!
