About Wolford Wood

This is an idyllic, peaceful spot to unwind and immerse in. The woodland is of Special Scientific Interest, home to more than 2,500 different species of flowers, fungi and fauna. The ancient woodland is protected by law and studied throughout the year by professionals and amateurs alike. The site offers 10 large non electric grass tent pitches and can accommodate separate areas for groups of family and friends. There's plenty of wild space for pitching tents, and campers can choose where they want to be, whether it is a shady spot under the trees or in the middle of the meadow. If you are looking for glamping, there are four wooden cabins to choose from, varying in size. Each comes with made up beds with all bedding and towels provided, a heater, sockets and seating areas. Outdoor kitchens equipped with stoves for cooking, a fridge freezer, pots and pans, crockery and cutlery, glasses and mugs. The site also has a power bank you can borrow if you place a small deposit. For evenings under the stars, there is a fire pit and one bag of logs per night included. There is also a fenced paddock for friends and family in tents to book separately. You'll be less than 30 minutes by car to Shakespeare's Stratford upon Avon, Leamington Spa and Warwick. Explore the picturesque villages of Bourton-on-the-Water or Jeremy Clarkson's Diddly Squat Farm. Sitting on the edge of Warwickshire, bordered right up against the counties of Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire, the location could hardly be a better hub to get away to. There are also many beautiful walks and cycle routes in the surrounding area, but if you prefer to stay onsite, there are regular and special weekend events. Park Run is every Saturday an you can book an organised group activity to entertain you from tie-dying to crazy clay faces, den building and fire lighting. The site allows raised firepits and small BBQs. Logs and firepits can be purchased onsite.

Wolford Wood is open all year round in 2024 and 2025.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesNov 2024

We had a lovely stay at Wolford Wood campsite, and Petra was an excellent host. The toilets and showers were very clean, the field was lovely with tall grass providing a nice feeling of enclosure and privacy. We stayed close to the woods where there was a very handy little table underneath a silver birch tree. Overall a great camping experience, would highly recommend! Thanks Petra 😊
