  • Back-to-basics Staffordshire farm site in 32 acres of countryside
  • Located in Cannock Chase; a five-minute drive from Rugeley and the A51
  • Pop-up shop selling hot drinks, local produce and camping equipment
For days biking through the forests of Cannock Chase, make tracks for this cycle-friendly farm site in Staffordshire. Stays are wonderfully laidback affairs at Four Oaks Farm – with 32 acres to pitch up in, there's plenty of space for everyone to chill out, cook and wander as they please. Head here for easy access to some of Staffordshire's top cycle paths (or walks with a well-behaved dog hot on your heels, if you've brought one). The Chase Mountain Bike trail is adjacent to the site, and there's a visitor centre on hand over the road if you need help getting to grips with your surrounds. There's also a Gruffalo-themed nature trail for the tiddlers to totter along here.  Back at base, the views are mighty fine and the basics are all covered: guests can expect spacious pitches, drinking water and portable toilets/showers, along with a pop-up shop (in high season only). Barbecues are welcome on site as long as they're raised off the ground, but please don't bring any firepits along. Need to stock up? Rugeley (five minutes' drive) has plenty of food shops, as well as pubs and takeaway options. If you're planning to leave the car at home for this one, this is also where you'll find the nearest station (about a 20-minute bike ride away).

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Family friendly (7+2 yr old) Value for money- we've paid more and had less facilities at other sites. Pitch sizes Clean toilets & showers Washing up area Parking next to tent. Lots of water points Walking distance to the forest.(even for the toddler) Onsite 24hr warden Friendly and helpful staff. Mini shop was well stocked with essentials.

Disliked: The onsite shop is very overpriced. Think service station prices but well stocked for emergencies.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: The campsite was fantastic. Quiet and simple which is what we wanted. The toilets and showers are kept very clean. The little shop stocks a bit of everything you may need if you forget to bring it. The pop up pizza van was definitely a big hit too! We will definitely be returning.

Local attractions

Fancying swinging through the trees? Go Ape is a couple of minutes' walk from site at Birches Valley Forest – head here if you fancy taking on this 1,500-metre-long high ropes course. Segway hire is also available next door for speedy self-powered laps of the woodland. The National Trust's Shugborough Estate (10 minutes' drive) is also close by: this Georgian manor house has gorgeous grounds and is home to a working farm where the kids can get up close and personal with friendly livestock. For more historic architecture, head down the road to Stafford Castle (20 minutes), where there's an interactive heritage trail and museum to get stuck into.  Other family-friendly options in the area include the National Forest Adventure Farm (20 minutes) with its bouncy soft play zone and go-karting track. Want to ramp up the adrenaline a little more? Jaunts to classic theme parks like Drayton Manor (25 minutes) and Alton Towers (half an hour) can be sorted in a doddle. For some slower times after all that action, Dovedale (45 minutes) is a prime spot for peaceful Peak District wanders.
