About Blue Pool Camping

The campsite is small and exclusive - within two acres there are just a handful of bell tents, for that true 'back to nature' experience. The vibe is for an eco and off grid experience, with the convenience of a private eco toilet for each pitch. Each bell tent includes comfy beds, plus a table and chairs. You can also settle down in the seating area outside beside the fire pit and take in the view. There are logs and kindling provided to get you started, with more available to buy from the team. 6 metre bell tents sleep a family of four with a double bed and two single beds, while 5 metre bell tents are perfect for two with a double bed or two single beds inside. Please bring your own bedding and cooking utensils, as these are not provided. An open air solar shower is available on the field. Each pitch is lit with fixed solar lighting and has a lantern. Parking is included for one car per pitch, with additional parking available on request from the team. Wild camping pitches are spread out over another secluded paddock with only eight pitches available. BBQs must be well raised off the ground, and fires are only permitted in a suitable fire pit. The treehouses are a spectacular addition to the site and truly a memorable experience. The family treehouse is fully serviced with electricity, lighting, hot and cold running water, shower and a flushing toilet.

Open from 1 May to 4 September
