Cossiwild Camping

Liked My granddaughter and I found this absolute gem of a place just 10 minutes away from home! We stayed for 3 nights and had a wonderful time. My granddaughter particularly enjoyed the giant swings and the trampoline, and we both had great fun in the lovely pool. The badger trail was fab and it was a special treat to see real live actual badger setts 🦡 so cool.
The peaceful nature of this site is just one of its many charming qualities. It was so calm and relaxing with beautiful views and the sounds of so many different birds twittering and singing away, which we enjoyed whilst swinging on the rope swing! There is plenty to see and do here without there being too much to do, there's time to slow down and just enjoy the countryside and amble through the day until the evening comes and then theres the roaring fire to look forward to...Harry was more than happy to share his wisdom on starting fires so don't worry if you're no expert!!
Harry is an all round genuinely interesting, kind, informative and great host...and for all of the above, we will surely be back time and again!!

Liked Cossiwild Camping
What a wonderful couple of nights we’ve had at this campsite
So much thought has gone into this campsite in all areas, for us it really did get children playing outside. They were playing in the woodland for hours!
The badger trail is beautiful as are the surrounding spaces where the children can play.
So many opportunities for play time in a magical woodland space.
The site is immaculate, Harry really keeps on top of it it has a natural shower shed type composting toilets and supplied fire pits. Harry, the host is most attentive and nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommended by us and our children who are missing the site already!
Thanks for having us stay!

Disliked Nothing at all.

From the manager: Thanks for coming Tom and glad you enjoyed the whole site. Look forward to seeing you again

Liked Grassy field to pitch tent and very clean composting toilets. Shower also available, cold but invigorating after the hot day. Harry was very welcoming and showed us around his garden. There are walks around the campsite and a pub for meals close by.

From the manager: Love that "invigorating" description of our shower, fresh from Severn Trent mains. Welcome to our first Aussie campers.

Liked Lovely campsite with a really friendly atmosphere. Having access to the gardens with the swings, and to the swimming pool, was lovely. We got some automated instructions via WhatsApp which was helpful. Close to the pub and the garden centre with a cafe. Facilities are basic but do the job. Real community atmosphere. Access to meadow walks nearby. Lots of blackberries in the bushes!

Disliked The toilet paper was a bit low in the compost toilets. That was all!

Liked We booked two nights at Cossiwild campsite, a little bit hard to find on the road as it's not signed posted. That being said the campsite is in beautiful surroundings with the best sunset.
This campsite is an eco friendly site with compost toilets witch were clean and well plenished, outdoor shower, which we found perfectly fine, in fact better that some of the bigger sites we have stayed on
You can pay to hire a fire pit for about £7 with plenty of fire wood from the forest, you can book the swimming pool for a hourly fee, or walk one of the many country foot paths in the nature reserve.
Harry the site owner is super friendly, chatting with all on site, he wants people to explore and enjoy the beautiful Leicestershire country side.
Best part is you don't need to pack up by 11am like most sites, you can leave when ever on the day.
Lovely pub in the village 8 minute walk, garden centre with cafe same distance.
Would we stay here again, definitely yes.

Disliked Needs a sign post outside the gate.

From the manager: Lovely to have you and enjoyed your very chilled set up. Quite right about the sign, I had one but someone nicked it, for the second time. So I'll try again. Welcome back next time.
