  • Small and simple off-grid site at a Staffordshire farm
  • Stoke-on-Trent 20 minutes' drive; 25 minutes to Alton Towers
  • Free-range hens and ducks on site; views over the site's orchard
If you like to open up your tent in the morning and see views of trees and farm animals rather than lots of other tents, take a look at Orchard View Campsite. This small Staffordshire site only has a handful of pitches, so your neighbours are likely to be the resident free-range chickens and ducks rather than a large number of other guests. The other thing you’ll be able to see is the small orchard next to the camping area – still in its infancy but a lovely backdrop nonetheless. In keeping with these chilled-out surroundings, the off-grid site is a simple setup with some outdoor log seating, a cold water supply and an indoor toilet as the only facilities. Keeping guest numbers low means there should always be space to relax in – and the low-key facilities mean low light pollution, and therefore often some quiet special night sky views. The location of this site should be a winner too – it's a thoroughly rural spot with lots of walks around and urban facilities not too far away in either Uttoxeter or Stoke-on-Trent (both 15-20 minutes' drive away). The closest pubs are a couple of miles away, and there are plenty of ways to fill your days – including days at the races, thrill rides at Alton Towers, pottery museums and gin tours among other things.

Local attractions

Keeping the rural vibe going around here might involve a wander around the ruins of Chartley Castle (15 minutes' drive), taking the kids to meet more animals at Amerton Farm & Billy's Farm Barn (15 minutes) or having a peaceful walk through the National Trust-protected landscape at Downs Banks (20 minutes). Fishing, golf and clay pigeon shooting are all available nearby, and there are scenic rides on the Foxfield Steam Railway (15 minutes). Thoroughly shattering that peaceful countryside vibe is a day at Alton Towers (25 minutes), where you can try out all the thrill rides, splash your way around the waterpark and meet colourful characters at CBeebies Land. Time to relax after all that excitement? Try a gin class or tour at Nelson’s Distillery and School (15 minutes), or head towards Stoke-on-Trent to see the pottery at World of Wedgwood (20 minutes) and The Potteries Museum (25 minutes).
