About the site
In this rural gem you have the choice of bringing your own tent to set up in the grass, or hiring one of three glamping options. The camping meadow is left as wild as possible so you really feel like you are a part of your environment. Each of the five pitches is surrounded by tall grass in the height of summer so you have your own private space in the meadow, with a fire pit for campfires provided. As there are just a limited number of campers on site, the atmosphere is peaceful and friendly, with communal areas for when you want to get together but also enough space to find your own escape. For a taste of wild glamping you could book one of the two pre-pitched bell tents. These include an empty 5.5m bell tent with coir matting floor. Bring all of your own camping kit and beds. Outside the tent you have a canvas tarp cooking shelter and outdoor cooking kit including a kindling rocket stove, Kelly Kettle and cast iron Dutch oven and frying pan. The StarDome is a mix of a dome and yurt with a set of curved wooden arches that form a perfect hemisphere covered in canvas. It sleeps five in furnished comfort and there's a cosy stove here too to keep you warm. The StarDome is fully furnished and linen is provided (please bring towels). All of the cooking and dining kit that you need is included, along with a cool box, water carrier, one pot wood fired rocket stove, kelly kettle and cast iron pots and pans. StarDome has its own fire pit with a hanging grill and outdoor, undercover seating. The meadow is surrounded by fields set aside for nectar flowers and plants that feed the farmland birds. Walks lead directly from the campsite into the surrounding fields where you can see deer, owls, hare and kestrels. This is a place where you can feel confident that you are enjoying your stay whilst looking after the environment.
