About the site


This family run campsite is nestled in a quiet and secluded location in picturesque countryside, within a five minute drive of local amenities - and an ideal 'get away from it all' break. There are 12 flat and spacious grass pitches, three of which are non electric and nine of which include 16 amp electric hook ups. The non electric pitches are suitable for small tents only and a maximum of two people, whilst the electric grass pitches allow tents, caravans and campervans and up to four people are permitted. For those who would prefer something a bit more luxe, The Orchard Hideaway camping pod is the perfect option, measuring 4m x 3m and sleeping up to two. It features a double deep sprung mattress with luxury bedding, a microwave, a fridge, a kettle, plates, cutlery, tea and coffee. All bedding is provided but please remember to bring your own towels. Well behaved dogs are welcome on both the camping pitches and in The Orchard Hideaway but please ensure that they remain on a lead and under control at all times. For a little treat whilst you are away, the site offers freshly made cream tea, luxury ice cream and stone baked pizzas (24 hours' notice required). Campfires are not permitted.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesSep 2024

Owners very friendly and welcoming, providing much needed tea and cake after long wet cycling day. Gave access to covered shelter for sorting out gear and cooking on a very wet day - very much appreciated.

Large Tent - Extra Large Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2024

Absolutely fell in love on arrival. Rose is absolutely lovely and the site is stunning, quiet and beautifully kept. I paid for an extra night on the first day we arrived as I knew I just didn't want to go home too early. The facilities are well kept and practically luxurious and there is an abundance of information available about surrounding sites to visit if you don't already know the area. I will most certainly be returning in the future.

Site's response
