A delightful campsite, with everything you'd want and need Recommends site
Bell Tent - Bell Tents (Dog Friendly) Apr 2024 Thank you for a lovely two night stay in one of the beautiful bell tents. They were a delight!
Clean and very pretty inside and out. A little luxury camping that I've not experienced before, but would definitely do again. Everything was thought of right down to the s'mores kits! A great bonus for us having travelled in a fully loaded Mini Cooper with very little space for any accessories. An extra heater was well received and the hosts could not have been more accommodating and friendly.
Excellent location, just 15 mins from Alton Towers!
Hope to see you again soon 😊

Thank you for such a lovely review — we’re delighted you enjoyed your two‑night stay in the bell tent. It’s wonderful to hear you found it beautifully presented, cosy and full of those little touches that make glamping feel special. We’re especially glad the s’mores kits and extra heater came in handy after travelling light, and that you felt so well looked after by the team. Being just 15 minutes from Alton Towers is always a bonus too. Hope to welcome you back again soon

Absolutely amazing Recommends site
Bell Tent - Bell Tents (Dog Friendly) Sep 2023 When we arrived we were greeted by the warden who showed us where to go. The tents were clean and tidy and the toilets and showers were clean and fully functional.
The information centre was very handy for ideas. We went to Alton Towers on the Saturday and as we left, the warden and his wife had put a lovely sign up saying happy 18th to my daughter. Such a lovely gesture. The warden was more than happy to help with anything we needed and checked throughout our stay that all was ok when he saw us.
We really did have a fantastic 2 night stay in the bell tents. A friendly welcome and a nice campsite with good facilities.

Thank you for such a warm and thoughtful review — it sounds like your stay was memorable for all the right reasons. Being greeted and shown around on arrival sets the tone, so it’s lovely to hear the warden made you feel welcome from the very start. The clean bell tents, fully functioning showers and toilets, and the handy information centre all play a big part in making the experience feel easy and relaxed, so it’s great to know they all hit the mark.
The birthday gesture for your daughter is especially heart‑warming — the couple who run the site genuinely care about their guests, and small touches like that really show it. It’s wonderful that they checked in throughout your stay and made sure everything was just right.
We’re delighted you had such a fantastic two‑night break and that the friendly welcome and good facilities stood out.

Beautiful campsite in peaceful surroundings Recommends site
Bell Tent - Bell Tents (Dog Friendly) Sep 2023 We stayed in a Bell tent for 2 nights. We chose this location as it was 15 minutes drive from Alton Towers.
The campsite is beautiful and quiet. There is a communal kitchen with sink and washing up bowls, microwave, kettle and large fridge freezer. There is also an information shed with everything you need to know about the area and places you can visit.
There are communal shower rooms. Toilet roll is provided and the showers are beautifully hot.
Our Bell tent could sleep 6 people. We needed to take our own bedding with us, which was expected. The Bell tent also came with a table and 4 chairs, a lamp, an electric fire, a kettle and 5 cups. There was 5 outside chair loungers, a picnic table and a fire pit. We could park our car right next to our Bell Tent.
We would definitely recommend this campsite as it provided everything we needed for a lovely clamping experience. We will definitely be returning.

Thank you for such a wonderful, detailed review — it’s clear you made the most of your stay, and it’s lovely to hear how well everything worked for your family. The peaceful setting, the short drive to Alton Towers and the fully equipped communal kitchen are things guests often appreciate, so it’s great to know they made your trip easier and more enjoyable. The information shed is a quiet favourite too, so I’m glad it added something extra to your stay.
Your description of the bell tent is exactly what we hope guests feel — spacious, well‑equipped and comfortable, with all the practical touches like the loungers, picnic table, fire pit and parking right beside the tent. It’s brilliant to hear it provided everything you needed for a proper glamping experience.
We’re delighted you’d recommend the site and even happier to know you’ll be returning
Hidden gem, loved our stay Recommends site
Bell Tent - Bell Tents (Dog Friendly) Sep 2023 We would certainly recommend this park. 360 degrees of countryside views. The bell tent was awesome. Perfect for large families and has a fire pit and chairs, so only need to bring bedding.
The couple who look after the site are so friendly and helpful and were really good to our children. There is a large fridge freezer in the kitchen, which is a huge plus as it was hot so all our drinks we stored and kept them nice and cold. They sell ice pops for 20 pence, a favourite with our kids.

Those little touches like the fire pit, chairs and the space for larger families are exactly what we hope make glamping feel easy and relaxed, so it’s lovely to know they hit the mark.
Your kind words about the couple who look after the site will mean a lot — they genuinely care about making families feel welcome, so hearing they were great with your children is especially appreciated. And yes, that big fridge freezer is a lifesaver on hot days… plus 20p ice pops are always going to be a winner with kids.

Great campsite Recommends site
Medium Tent - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2023 Great site in a good location for exploring and visiting Alton Towers.

Thank you — short but spot‑on. It’s great to hear the site worked so well as a base for exploring and for your Alton Towers visit. The location is something many guests appreciate, so it’s lovely to know it suited your plans perfectly.
Peaceful and relaxing site Recommends site
VW-Type Campervan - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2023 This is a beautiful friendly little site. The pitches are a good size and considering it's in the top of a hillside the pitches were relatively level and sheltered.
The site provides you with a fire pit and you can get logs from the wardens on site.
The location is good, I took a walk to the local high street which has a coop and a few pub/restaurants. The walk is downhill so remember the journey home is all uphill, it's about 3/4 mile and it's a safe pathway so suitable if walking with children as well.
We stayed her for our visit to Alton Towers, the drive to there is nice and easy and only takes about 15 mins.
The shower and toilet facilities are set in a beautiful little fairy garden with the fully equipped camping kitchen. The showers are a good size and have lots of room to get changed and put your bits without having to worry about them getting wet.
The only downside to the facilities is the lack of hot water taps. You can only get hot water in the shower which if you just want to wash your hands and face is a little bit annoying.
Great for Alton Towers Recommends site
Large Tent - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2023 Lovely, small campsite. We stayed here while visiting Alton Towers. It's the perfect quiet spot for some peace after a busy day.
Loved the fire pits. Toilets clean. Small park for kids and room to play. Lots of supermarkets just down the road and a hungry horse pub for a cheap dinner.
Would use again as a base for going to Alton Towers. Owners friendly and helpful.

Amazing Recommends site
Large Tent - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2023 Absolutely amazing campsite. We weren't expecting much, but when we arrived was seen to straight away by the warden and was surprised how lovely it was.
All the special touches. So clean and tidy. We also bought a bag of their wood and fire lighters for just £6 and we had enough for fires every night from the free fire pit they offer too.
It really is brilliant and will definitely be back and 💯 recommended. Obviously and stunning views also sunset and sunrise.

We’d be delighted to welcome you back again, and your 💯 recommendation means a lot.

Peaceful, well equipped campsite Recommends site
Medium Tent - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2023 We stayed for 2 nights in July with our 2 young children.
The campsite was very peaceful in a beautiful rural location less than 20 mins away from Alton Towers which was our reason for choosing this campsite.
The facilities were well maintained and clean, with the added bonuses of a fridge/freezer, microwave and kettle. There was also a little hut containing books, DVDs and lots of leaflets advertising local attractions. The children loved playing in the little play park and there was plenty of central space for ball games.
We would definitely stay again.

Lovely site Recommends site
Large Tent - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2023 Pitches are around the edge but you don't feel hemmed in along a row, as there are lovely wildflowers between each pitch, giving a little privacy.
Site's response
Thank you for the lovely feedback — it’s great to hear the layout of the site worked so well for you. Those wildflowers between the pitches are a small touch, but they really do make the space feel more private and relaxed, so it’s wonderful to know they stood out.
Amazing weekend! Recommends site
Bell Tent - Bell Tents (Dog Friendly) Jul 2023 We had the best weekend staying in Rosewood Bell tent!
Normally, I dread what the facilities are like on campsites, but this one was the best I've seen - the toilets/shower/kitchen areas were amazing and very well maintained and looked after, as was the bell tent and grounds itself.
The couple running it were amazing throughout and maintained the whole site to a high standard. They came over to check how our stay had been and when they saw us after check in they asked if we needed anything and suggested nice walks/places around the area.
Couldn't recommend this place enough and it will definitely be a yearly trip!
Site's response
Thank you for such a glowing review — it’s wonderful to hear you had the best weekend in the Redwood Bell Tent. Knowing that the facilities exceeded your expectations, especially when campsite washrooms usually fill you with dread, really means a lot. The team will be thrilled to hear their hard work on the toilets, showers, kitchen areas and grounds made such a difference.
It’s also lovely that you felt so well looked after — the couple running the site take real pride in making guests feel welcome, so your kind words about their suggestions and check‑ins will mean the world to them.
We’re delighted you’d recommend us so highly, and even more delighted that this is becoming a yearly tradition.

Great site with friendly wardens Recommends site
Single Axle Caravan - Fully Serviced Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2023 Site was impeccable, fantastic location and pitches. I wasn't keen on the extras charged for awnings, dogs etc but they must have reasons.
That being said the facilities were fantastic and the people on the site were very friendly. Curfew was maintained and regardless of the birthday party, there was no disruption on site.
I loved it and would happily visit again.

Have already recommended to family and friends.
