Why not try something different!

Our Tipi Tents are available from May until the end of September and have uninterrupted views of the river Eden. The Tipis are made from cotton and have a raised decking area.

We ask that no cooking is done inside the Tipi and any barbecues must be on the Grass, not on the decking.

You need to bring everything to camp but not the tent. There is an electric supply to the Tipi, but no heating or lighting is provided.

Check in from 3pm, and we ask you to leave your Tipi by 11am on the day of departure.

We would appreciate the traditional way of removing shoes when entering the Tipi, and please leave it as you found it.

Sorry no dogs or candles are allowed inside our Tipis.

We loved this camp site, beautiful surrounding and very peaceful. The facilities were fantastic and clean. The staff were most helpful, kind and answered any questions we had. There is a lovely little honesty shop with snacks. We would definitely be returning.

Peaceful and private

Murray, Kate - 10/04/2024

We stayed in a camping pod, with friends staying in other pods in the Orchard Field. The pods are really spaced out to give lots of privacy, and there was plenty of space in the field to gather around the fire pit on an evening. The kids loved the play area and all the space in the field for them to play ball games. The facilities were very clean. The pod was so cosy even on a very wet and chilly evening. We will definitely return.

We had an amazing time, we stayed in a pod and it was warm and cozy . Perfect for cooler months before we’re happy camping. Despite the rain we had fun in orchard field, and in the playground . Was lovely having the lambs and rabbits so close to our pod The owners are fantastic, so attentive and caring. Constant supply of wood ( and wine ) .. lovely honesty shop and great shower / washing facilities .We couldn’t ask for anymore, this place is beautiful.
