  • Adults-only woodland pitches in Worcestershire
  • A 15-minute drive to Tewkesbury and 25 minutes to the Malvern Hills
  • Outdoor kitchen and barbecue; stone-carving art class available
A destination with no set pitches – just find a spot with valley views or a woodland corner that suits you and claim it – Rockridge in Worcestershire is open to adult guests and their dogs. This spot really does have a back-to-basics vibe to it, so you can bed down in total peace and feel the tug of nature calling you. Having said that, there is a toilet and a shower with hot water, as well as an outdoor cooking area with hot and cold water where you can prepare meals to eat alfresco or wash up your dishes. An outdoor barbecue facility is also on-hand. The farmland is criss-crossed with footpaths that give wonderful views of hilly countryside, so you and your canine chums can have a potter around on site, but don’t forget that all the glorious walking trails in the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (25 minutes’ drive) are yours for the taking too. The owner of the site also offers a stone-carving art class which can be booked when you arrive.

Unpowered grass and earth tent or trailer tent site

Liked: It's listed as a wild campsite but has all the utilities you would normally get a campsite. We could pick where to pitch and it was such a beautiful space. We had free access to the wood on site which made a huge difference. Gary was a wonderful host and a fascinating person to talk to. This is our new favourite campsite!

From the manager: Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the balance of wild camping with the added comforts. It's great to hear that the beautiful space and access to wood made your stay special. Gary will be delighted to know he made a positive impression. We're honored to be your new favorite campsite and can't wait to welcome you back!

Unpowered grass and earth tent or trailer tent site

Liked: This is lovely unique spot, that feels wild but with the comfort of a toilet, warm shower and a sink with hot and cold water. The opportunity to camp in the woodland where suits you to enjoy the trees and all the wildlife within them - we enjoyed the bats and the Tawny owls! The owner was super helpful and welcoming.

Local attractions

If you’d like a dose of culture on your camping break, Tewkesbury Abbey (15 minutes’ drive) is a smashing place to start. It played a decisive battle in the 15th-century Wars of the Roses and nowadays you can climb the tower for battlefield views, and admire its sparkling stained-glass windows. Afterwards, treat yourself to a crafty pint in one of the town’s half-timbered hostelries. Mix history up with outdoor strolls around Capability Brown-designed follies and flower beds at the Walled Gardens at Croome Court (15 minutes), while the National Trust-owned The Firs (half an hour) is the birthplace of composer Sir Edward Elgar, and has gardens to wander and displays of original manuscripts including ‘Land of Hope and Glory’. Fancy a day out in town? Cheltenham (half an hour) offers theatres, stylish shops and a whole host of spas, while the cathedral city of Gloucester has bar-and-shop-lined Victorian quays and docks to explore. And if you prefer to be country based, oh-so-pretty Broadway (both 35 minutes), with its follies, museums and rural walks, is the springboard to explorations of mellow-stone Cotswold villages.
