It's great outdoors

Briefly, our history

Founded in 2003, Campsites.co.uk is one of the UK's longest-established and most popular camping websites. Back then, it was just basic email enquiries, until 2019 when we launched our instant online booking service to make it easy to secure your next camping getaway in just a few clicks.

Fast-forward to today, and we're helping thousands of campers book their next adventure every single week, connecting them with more than 3,000 brilliant camping, glamping and touring sites across the UK.

Trusted by campers and campsites alike

Our job is to make finding and booking the right campsite easy and stress-free. Booking a holiday should be fun!

Each of the sites we list has a detailed and carefully fact-checked description, so you can trust that the information you're reading is accurate and up to date. We make it simple to compare options, availability and prices, and you'll never pay more than booking direct, with low deposits and no booking fees.

We go beyond the basics, too. Site listings include practical details and honest insights you won't easily find elsewhere, giving you everything you need to know in one place.

We care a great deal about customer service and are always on hand to help wherever we can. We know that a great stay starts well before you arrive and doesn't end when you head home! Whether it's a quick question before booking, help making a change, or support if something unexpected crops up, we'll always do our best to help.

Although your booking is still with the site directly, if something doesn't go to plan, we'll step in wherever we can to help get things sorted and resolve any issues in a fair and straightforward way.

But don't just take our word for it. Campsites.co.uk proudly holds an 'Excellent' Trustpilot score, with 93% of guests saying they would book with us again.

Our mission

Our mission is simple: to encourage a little more adventure in everyday life with brilliant holidays in the great outdoors. Inspiring people across the UK to get out there, explore more of the country, and reconnect with nature. Campfires and big open skies.

From first-time campers to seasoned explorers, we're here to nurture a love of outdoor escapes, one tent, pod, or campervan at a time!

We believe confident choices start with great information. That's why every listing on our platform is presented to a high standard, with proper photography and detailed, accurate descriptions you can trust.

We focus on well-run, established and authentic campsites with great facilities, standout locations, and a level of service campers can rely on. Being selective in the sites we list, you can be confident of what you're getting when you book, comparing availability and prices to find the right stay without the guesswork.

With a huge community of campers, you'll find thousands of honest and verified guest reviews that say how it really is.

We're just as committed to supporting campsite owners, too. We know that running a site often means juggling guest check-ins, maintaining spotless facilities and the occasional runaway cow. From arranging professional photography to sharing practical insight on the most in-demand future improvements, we work closely with owners to help each site reach its full potential in a way that genuinely works for them.

How to use the website

If you're in discovery mode, you can explore campsites by location, attraction or inspiration-led categories, then save your favourites into lists to come back to later or share with friends while you plan.

For campers with a clear plan in mind, our handy search bar lets you filter availability by everything from popular destinations like Cornwall and Snowdonia to postcodes, campsites near top attractions, or niche categories such as the best sites for paddle boarding or foodie stays. Add all your criteria upfront, and you'll be ready to book in just a few clicks.

And if you're planning ahead or browsing out of season, you can switch on handy availability notifications to be the first to know when your chosen dates open up at popular sites.
