Welcome to Luckford Wood Caravan and Camping Park. We believe our Park is unique and quite different to many. Enjoy a magical evening in front of a camp fire, contained in a fire box. Help yourself to all the firewood you need, this will help you keep warm and cosy wherever you camp. Place sachets of our mystical fire dust on your camp fire and watch the colour of the flames be transformed from yellow to pink, purple, green, blue, etc. Buy some of our eco flying lanterns and watch them silently float away into the heavens - don't forget to make a wish. Luckford Wood is a secluded, peaceful level and well screened park with a woodland backdrop. While on site let us serve you with succulent sea bass, cooked while you are out enjoying yourself, in a chilli, onion, mustard, white wine, lemon and lime sauce. Or how about juicy loins of pork topped off with a honey spiced white wine, clove, garlic, honey and brown sugar glaze? All served and displayed on silver platters delivered to your encampment upon your return. Or you might prefer a delicious fish and chip supper served at Luckford Wood in our wooded picnic zone lit by candles and log fires, on Saturdays between 5-7pm. Weather permitting! You might also like to enjoy a candllit dinner in a wooden shelter complete with tables, chairs, tea and fairy lights as well as an open log fire.
