+ 11 photos

Woodland Tipi and Yurt Holidays is a small and friendly site set in 17 acres of woodland in the Herefordshire countryside. Stay in either a yurt or bell tent, and find rustic luxury throughout the site, with hammocks, hot tubs, pizza ovens, festoon lighting, campfires, BBQ's, hot showers (and even a bath!). Plus a woodburning stove in every tent. Nearby, you'll find a great range of activities in the Forest of Dean and Wye Valley AONB.

About the site

The glampsite is a children's haven, with the freedom for little ones to play and explore while the adults relax. In this magical, safe, natural space, families come together and enjoy nature, the stars, walking, animal spotting, exploring, den making, collecting wood, and cooking on an open fire. It's also a romantic space for couples to enjoy, especially with the option of booking a wood-fired hot tub. Or why not book the whole site (or half of the site) for a family get together, or quiet retreat? - both old and young will enjoy the ambience. (No parties or amplified music allowed.) There are 5 yurts, and 3 bell tents spread across the site, in 2 different areas. Yurts sleep 4-6 people, with a max of 4-5 adults. Bells sleep 4-5. They all contain a king sized bed, a woodburning stove, and single foam mattresses on the floor. Furnished with simple furniture, lots of soft rugs, cushions, and some bedding (you will be required to bring your own linen), and with all the extra touches, such as flowers, fairy lights, hot water bottles, firewood, lanterns and tea lights, you are sure to be comfortable, relaxed and warm. Not too far from each tent, you will find either flushing toilets, or composting toilets, hot showers, covered places to sit and eat, and a kitchen area. The 2 shared kitchens have everything you need for a self catering stay, including pots and pans, crockery and cutlery, fridges, ovens, and electrical charging points. Eat your food at the table in the kitchen, or under one of the awnings nearby. The tents are all 'off-grid', but the kitchen and shower blocks have all the mod cons. Please note, there is no WiFi. Outside each tent you'll find a private area with your own hammock, picnic bench, firepit, trivet and a BBQ so you can cook outside and experience the true off-grid camping experience. Or fire up the pizza oven (there are 2 on site) and make your own wood-fired pizzas. There are 2 wood-fired hot tubs available to book. There is also a very large marquee that can be booked separately for retreats, yoga and crafts. The site also makes their own cider, white wine, and sparkling white wine which can be purchased onsite.

Open from 1st April to beginning of October

A note from the site themselves...

The woodland has such a magical feel to it. As soon as you enter you'll leave your worries behind, and start to relax!

Set up 18 years ago by Julia Sanders, her brother Mark, and parents Bryn and Jenny, many guests have enjoyed the tranquil setting, and beautiful tents over those years, as it has grown and adapted. Julia has decided to move on, so Annabel (Mark's partner) has joined the team, and we hope to continue to share the wonderful site with many more guests for years to come.

We pride ourselves on running the campsite in a sustainable and eco-conscious way.

Things to do on site and in the Hereford area

There's plenty of fun to be had on site - letting the kids play on the swings in the wood, table tennis under the awning, playing badminton, collecting firewood, making campfires, nature spotting, building dens, cooking pizzas, and exploring the 'forest' paths.

Or just soak up the ambience, lie in a hammock, read a book, and listen to the birdsong.

Walk to the river, the pub, or the picturesque Italianate church in Hoarwithy (about a mile away). There's a good circular (approx.3.5 mile) walk that takes in the river, a cafe, the pub, and the church. (Ask on site for directions)

Nearby there's the option of canoeing on the river Wye with Hereford Canoe Hire, or be really adventurous and experience some rapids further downstream at Symonds Yat.

Visit the cathedral city of Hereford, and see the Mappa Mundi, or the market town of Ross-on-Wye, and stroll along the pretty riverbank. Both towns are about 6 miles away.

The Forest of Dean is not far, with loads of activities, such as bike hire, walking, climbing, a sculpture trail, and many other visitor attractions.

There are many pubs in the local area for good food, the New Harp Inn at Hoarwithy, and the Cottage of Content at Carey, both of which are within walking distance, if you don't mind the hike up the hill on the way back!

Further afield there's The Royal Hotel in Ross-on-Wye, and the Harewood End Pub in Harewood End.

Visit Merrimilk vending machine and honesty box farm shop, for organic milk, organic veg, meat, eggs, cakes and more. Treat the kids to a delicious fresh milkshake while you're there - only 2.4 miles away in Little Birch. Pengethley Farm Shop, Garden Centre and Cafe, is about 6 miles away on the A49.

Warehouse 701 - a reclamation yard, with giftshop, gallery, and cafe is worth a visit, 6 miles in the other direction at Rotherwas.
