  • 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.

What customers say

This woodland site offers wild camping with comfy loos & hot showers. Reviewers loved the freedom to pick pitches, the natural beauty, and wildlife. Hosts were friendly & knowledgeable, with many keen to return. Minor points: shower door privacy & one loo potentially causing queues.

Rhys E.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Toilets and bench area was nice.
Free wood

Disliked Can't park next to pitch as advertised.
Nobody at reception which is fine but when they came back asked us to move even though it was pitch anywhere.
Cat is nice but trys to steal food and when you say no it launched at my arm and bit me.
Looks like a building site near the house and could do with hiding away as its not great to look at.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not fully meet expectations. For safety and comfort reasons, not all Car can parked directly on the pitches, which is why guests are asked to use the designated parking areas. We appreciate your understanding on this.

Regarding the reception, we do sometimes step away briefly, but our team is always available to help as soon as possible. We’re also very sorry about your experience with the cat – it is usually friendly with guests, and we will take steps to ensure it does not disturb anyone.

Finally, we are currently carrying out some improvement works to enhance the site, and we understand this may not be the best view. These upgrades will help us provide an even better stay for future visitors.

We truly value your comments and will use them to improve our guest experience.

Kim W.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked This site is a must for those that love nature as you will be smack in the middle of it. This camp site is beautiful. A place to recharge the mind and the body. A place
to sleep under the stars and connect to mother nature.. something that needs to be protected.
The shower was warm and large.. so was the toilet which was well stocked with loo roll and both are very clean.it was great to be allowed to have an open fire which was quite popular...all that was asked was common sense prevailed. There is a well stocked washing up area .
We were a party of four and none of us will hesitate to return..infact we do plan another weekend very soon .
This site is an absolute gem
Gary and Marlene are very friendly and welcoming....A massive thank you to you both from Kim, Karl, Tina and Gary

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked A lovely place, so peaceful and super laid back, felt like proper wild camping but with the luxury of a shower and a toilet. It was wonderful to have a proper campfire. The facilities were clean and the owner was super friendly and helpful. We had a great time, could have easily stayed another 5 nights!

Liked Nice, quiet space to do some camping. Everything was there for our minimal needs, including a fire pit at our spot - which we made use of.

Michelle C.

Non-electric grass and earth touring pitch

Liked Friendly welcome (including from the cat :D) . Lovely, peaceful site where can choose where you want to pitch.
Had a relaxing walk and found a couple of local pubs. Owners very knowledgeable of the area.
I appreciate sites charging per persons rather than pitch!

Disliked Nothing

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and freedom to choose your own pitch — and we’ll be sure to let the Bella the cat know they got a mention too 😄. It’s great that you found some of the local walks and pubs, and we’re glad our per-person pricing worked well for you. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Natural Woodland. Quiet and Serene.

COLIN JAMES D.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked What a lovely wild camp site. Stayed for 3 nights. Very natural woodland with basic facilities, just what i needed. It was nice to have a campfire, plenty of fallen branches to burn.
Nice quiet roads to cycle. Plenty of public footpaths to walk.
Gary the owner was very helpful.
Highly recommended. I'll definitely be going back.

Disliked Going Home

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.
