The dew sits heavy on canvas in the morning here, and there's a simplicity to waking up in a field that asks nothing more of you than to pitch well and tread lightly.

Military Field suits campers who've brought everything they need — tenters, campervanners and caravanners all welcome, though you'll want to double-check what's actually on offer when you arrive. It's in the Home Counties, so you're within reach of woodland walks, market towns and those rolling stretches of countryside that feel both tamed and timeless, but the site itself keeps its cards close to its chest in terms of specifics.

Facilities aren't listed, so ring ahead if you need particular amenities or hook-ups. Campfires may be allowed — ask on arrival rather than assume. The name suggests a working or ex-military site, so expect a no-frills, straightforward pitch rather than glamping bells and whistles. It's the sort of place that rewards the self-sufficient: if you've got your own setup sorted, you'll likely have a perfectly decent, uncomplicated stay.
