What customers say
A peaceful, woodland escape, offering an off-grid experience and a strong connection to nature. Visitors praise the thoughtful provisions, including borrowed gear and great Forest School facilities for kids. Owners are consistently friendly and helpful. While some spots, especially deep in the woods, might see midges and horseflies, the overall vibe is super positive, with many keen to come back.

Squirrels Family ready tent
Liked Absolutely fabulous site. So peaceful and quiet and very relaxing in beautiful surroundings. Site owners are wonderful and helpful. Big shout out to Mike who pointed me in the right direction to a car auto spares after my car had a mechanical. Great place to explore from. Plenty of shops a short distance away and some very welcoming pubs for great food.
Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Foxes Den camping pod
Liked The site lived up to everything it promised, quiet and peaceful, beautiful woodland setting and lots of wildlife. The camping pod had everything you could possibly need, comfy outdoor chairs, table, plates and cutlery. The fire pit and bbq are a nice touch with the first trug of logs free! The blow up mattress in the pod was comfortable, and stayed up! We slept so well. Definitely recommended for those who like an outdoors, off grid break, we will be returning.
Disliked Mosquitoes (can't be helped but bring plenty of repellent).

Unpowered grass and earth tent site
Liked We spent the weekend here with our family and had an amazing time. The location is so peaceful, and all day long you can hear the birds singing. It was lovely that a BBQ and log burner were provided, making our stay even more enjoyable.
Our 10-year-old son absolutely loved spending time in the Forest School, and the children’s play area was another great place for the kids to have fun. We also really appreciated the outdoor kitchen, where you could borrow anything you had forgotten – such a thoughtful touch!
Everything was well looked after, and it was the perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. We’re already looking forward to coming back for another stay. Highly recommended!

Anonymous Unpowered grass and earth tent site
Liked As usual, everything was brilliant. Quiet, secluded place, good for families with kids. Barely any signal, no electricity, no wi-fi, yet still civilised enough to be able to take a shower. Just the perfect spot to have a few days of sacred peace off the grid.

Anonymous Squirrel's Hideaway unpowered grass and earth tent site (secluded)
Liked The site itself has everything you needed. Running water, toilet, kitchen area with items to borrow if forgot anything, small play area and was very quiet and not overcrowded unfortunately the pitch we stayed on squirrel hideaway was absolutely full of midges and horseflies. You couldn't stand out your tent without being eaten alive even with repellent on us and around the tent. We are talking excess amount and lots of bites. Me, my husband and children were all absolutely covered to the point we actually came home a day early which we have never done before but we had a baby and a toddler and it was to much for us never mind them. The site had a communal area which had hardly any flies as it was in the sun so we used this to get a break from the bites and cooked our tea. This was enjoyable. The pitch was to shaded and damp as it was in the woods and I don't think it should actually be hired out. You couldn't sit out and relax like you normally would do at camping you were pinned in your tent and as a family of 7 this wasn't ideal. Even pitching up and down was a nightmare with the biting. The other pitches which were out of this area seemed good and wish we had booked one of them so we had a possible different experience. Was perfect location for visiting hoozoo which is what we spent one of our days doing. If the bites hadn't been an issue then there was no complaints as it was a lovely site and definitely value for money.
