  • Laidback off-grid Northamptonshire site 10 mins' drive from Daventry
  • Silverstone and Althorp Estate both 20 minutes' drive
  • Easy access from the M1; canal and woodland walks close by
Craving that feeling of being in the middle nowhere, but also kind of keen to be close to local amenities? The answer lies at AllThings Camping, a quiet place that’s tucked away in the Northamptonshire countryside but well placed for lots of handy infrastructure. This off-grid campsite is a nicely laidback place where you'll be staying in a peaceful seven-acre field with simple facilities including a shower and a couple of compost toilets. There’s also a shared mess tent with some basic kitchen kit (including a kettle and some tea and coffee supplies) and seating for those times when you need somewhere weatherproof to relax. Coffee and cakes are available on site during school holidays and the big Silverstone weekend. The vibe here is super chilled, with kids and dogs welcome, plenty of space to relax and a low level of light pollution often leading to some good stargazing. Nearby, you'll be able to walk in the woods or along the canal (five minutes' drive away). Shops, cafés, boat rentals and river swimming spots are also a few minutes' drive away, and there's a Roman fort about a mile away. So far, so rural… but in fact there are plenty of useful facilities nearby, either in the nearby village of Nether Heyford (five minutes' drive) or in bigger towns like Daventry (10 minutes) and Northampton (20 minutes). This site is also very handy for the M1, as it's only about 10 minutes' drive from Junction 15.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Libby…Such a great host. Helpful and kind. We were in a self sufficient motor home and needed just one night. Perfect for our needs. A safe, peaceful and beautiful spot.

There’s a communal marquee with space to stretch out from your tent.

Rental tent

Liked: Stayed in a pre-erected tent which was very spacious and a great price! Compost toilet was clean. The mess tent was fantastic. Very friendly fellow campers and great communication from Libby the owner. A very peaceful site.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful setting, lovely relaxed vibe, like a wild campsite but not because Libby has thought of all the perks of a more structured campsite (compost loos, shower, communal mess tent with power points) & delivered them in a really chilled & friendly way. Had such a lovely time here, will be back in future. Location is great too- feels really rural but it’s easy to get to Northampton & motorway in no time.

Disliked: It’s a dog friendly site and whilst all the dogs there were friendly, we did have to do a thorough poo pick up around the area where we pitched so the kids didn’t tread in any but once we had cleared the area it was ok- just bring poo bags. Might be good if campsite welcome pack asks owners to pick up after their dogs.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Stayed here with my boyfriend for the weekend it was our first time camping and our experience couldn’t have gone any better, Libby was so accommodating and welcoming, the facilities were great and very clean, the shower has hot water and they also have a tent with everything you may need from kettles with tea and coffee to stoves and many other necessities that you are welcome to use. The view of the sky at night was beautiful we had never seen so many stars, the field was so clean and this definitely deserves a 5 star rating. Libby was very helpful with anything we needed and made our experience a great one, we are very happy and we will definitely be returning :)
