Wharton Hut is ideal for a peaceful couple’s get away. Sited a little away from the tents, is blessed with the tree tops view and sunsets in the evenings. It is furnished with a  made-up, king size comfy bed, some storage and simple furniture.  Hut is equipped with outdoor seating, fire pit and charcoal bbq for your convenience .  There is a single gas hob inside and all utensils, cooking kit,  small fridge, pots and pans and basic necessities are  provided in its own outdoor kitchenette.  There are plenty of fairy lights installed  for the evenings as there is no electricity on our site.  All lights are solar powered. Please bring a power bank (we’re happy to charge it for you at home) and a good torch.   There also are some games, books and magazines for you to enjoy. More local information, maps and flyers are available from our Summer Kitchen. 

For your convenience, the private composting toilet is located nearby, while conventional toilet and hot shower can be found a short stroll away in the valley in our wash-hut.  It is a shared facility, with a large room with a flushing loo, hot shower and a basin, and is cleaned daily.  Please bring your own towels.

You will be able to park  your car nearby.

We offer 2- 3 nights weekend breaks (Fri-Sun/Mon) and a min 2 nights mid week stays (Mon-Fri). Check in time is 4-7pm and check out 10:30am.

The Hawthorn Ridge  and Tilia  bell tents  are located at one end of our secluded valley.  They feel private but are not too distant from each other to allow two families to holiday together.  We are sorry but we don’t allow stag / hen parties and loud gatherings. 

From the Summer 2024 we welcome a well behaved dog  in our Tilia tent if you choose to holiday with your four legged family member. We love dogs but please DO RESPECT other guests, neigbours and presence of the wildlife at the campsite. Dogs are to be kept on a lead at all times, please, and usual t’s & C’s apply. 

Our spacious (6m), fire retardant, fully equipped and furnished bell tents are set up on raised platforms and can sleep 2 adults (on a comfortable, made-up double bed with a real mattress) and 3 children on comfy futons and camp beds ready with the bottom sheets and pillows (please byo children’s bedding or alternatively we have a limited number of sleeping bags for hire).  If you are blessed with more children, please contact us directly as we can accommodate extra beds.  Addition of an awning expands your sheltered and usable space and pretty fairy lights and solar lamps add to the charm of camping with comforts and enjoying outdoors.  There are also some spare blankets and hot water bottles provided.
Charcoal bbq, fire pit, utensils, basic equipment and outdoor seating are also provided for your comfort in this peaceful setting. (wood and kindling for the first night’s fire is included)

Your private, flushing toilet and shower room is located nearby together with Summer kitchen. There, you will find some additional equipment, small fridge (no freezer at this moment as we are off-grid), washing up facilities, drinking water, gas hob and some basic games, books, magazines etc., plus some essentials like oil, salt, some spices, teabags, alu-foil etc. Worth knowing is that our most local shop – The Lea Stores is well stocked up with most items you may need during your stay.  

Designated car parking area is available slightly away from the bell tents. You are welcome to drive your car for loading on check-in/out only. 

In holiday time we offer 3 nights weekend breaks (Fri-Mon) and 4 nights mid week stays (Mon-Fri), off peak we’re more flexible with an option of 2 nights mid week stay. Check in time is 4-7pm and check out 10:30am. 

We are offering 2, off-grid woodland camping pitches located in our valley, amongst ponds and meadows.  It’s nearly-wild camping with additional comfort of flushing toilets, and hot water!

To accommodate both individual campers and  families the tent pitching spots are generous in size, fitting one or two medium tents.  Each area has a picnic bench and fire pit. If you are staying together you can pitch your tents in one of the two spots, available. When staying separately, the two areas are well spaced out from each other.  Pitches are as flat and level as we can make them without too much disturbance to nature. 

Flushing toilet and shower are located in our Wash Shack, along with dedicated washing-up station and small gas fridge to share. There is no freezer as there is no electricity here, but we are more than happy to refreeze your ice blocks and recharge your power banks. You will need good torches and lamps. 

Designated car parking area is available slightly away from the pitches, you are welcome to drive your car for loading on check-in/out. 

We are flexible with check in days. Minimum stay is 3 nights. Check in time 4-7pm and check out 12:00 noon.
