Oatcroft

Me gustó This was a great back to basics site. Phillip was very helpfull and happy to chat and give local advice on walks, history of the area etc.

The site is a very large field so plenty of space, with a sturdy and clean compost toilet.

Awesome 360 degree views over to the Malverns and into Wales etc, I imagine it would be amazing on a clear night - for star gazing etc.

There is a good hotel/bar about a mile walk down the road.

Once you arrive at the farm you drive up a dirt track and through a few fields to get to the site. So if you are running a low vehicle just go carefully.

Lots of walks around the area which can be circled back to the site

There was also phone signal at the top of field which we weren't expecting.

We will be back soon for sure

Me gustó Conned into a little late season camping by my daughter and found that Oatcroft was one of just a few local sites still open in mid-November. It turned out to be a great location and we chose a level grass pitch, accessible by car, near the top of the ridge. From over 1000ft we had stunning views of Herefordshire and across into Wales. On a Monday evening, we were the only customers, but Philip couldn’t have been more helpful, nothing was too much trouble, and he and his brother both dropped by to check that all was ok. Philip is also very knowledgeable about the local area and I enjoyed our chat. After dark, to the accompaniment of tawny owls and the odd sheep in the fields behind, we enjoyed planets, stars, a dozen Starlink satellites and a moon bright enough to cast shadows.

No me gustó Nothing. Wonderful “wild” camping exactly as described. Take nothing but photos, leave nothing but footprints (and maybe the odd tyre track!)

Me gustó This site is worth coming here just for the view!!! The sunset, the sunrise, the clouds, the night sky!!! Perfect for a weekend away from it all. Walks starting from the field, cycle routes through pretty villages on almost traffic free little lanes. It definitely felt as close to wild camping as possible, but drinking water and the clean compost toilet added the right level of comfort.

And there is enough signal in the field to stay connected if you need to - it was good for last minute changes to my walking and cycling plans.

Super interesting chat to Philip and his dad as well. I hope to come back at some point in the not too distant future.

Me gustó The views and scenery. The peace and quiet. The cleanest compost toilet I’ve ever used. The friendly farmer who is so knowledge about the local area!
There is so much history in this small piece of the country and the walking is brilliant.

Me gustó Absolutely everything about this site. The freedom, the views, the well kept grass to pitch on. The location, the views, and tge facilities ( enough - it’s all we need when camping) and the care of the farmer who makes sure he knows who is on his site. He was exceptionally knowledgeable about the area, made recommendations for reading and went above and beyond when it got windy by surrounding our tent with hay bales!

Me gustó Plenty of space, peace and quiet and great views. Simple camping as stated in the description which is exactly what we were looking for.

No me gustó We didn’t really dislike but we hadn’t realised we’d have to drive through a field full of cows and then another field to access the camping field.

Me gustó We had a lovely week's wild (ish) camping in a super field with plenty of flat areas in such beautiful countryside with amazing views. It was great to be able to camp where you wanted, we were lucky to have the field to ourselves. Good access to water and a composting toilet which was clean and basic. The farmer Philip was super friendly and informative about the local area, with great advice on where to wild swim locally. Great walks straight from the campsite. Highly recommend.
