Herons Wood

The first thing you notice at Herons Wood is the quiet — that deep, tree-filtered stillness broken only by birdsong and the rustle of leaves overhead.

This is a proper woodland pitch suited to tent campers and those in smaller campervans who prefer a bit of shelter and shade over manicured rows. Dogs may be welcome but it's worth asking when you book, and the campfire policy needs checking on arrival — always a good sign that they're open to the idea if conditions allow. The name suggests you might spot herons if there's water nearby, though the site details are deliberately low-key.

Facilities aren't spelled out, so expect a back-to-basics setup — this isn't a place for those needing electric hookups or shower blocks with underfloor heating. It's the kind of spot that appeals to campers who pack light, sleep well under canvas, and like waking up surrounded by trees rather than caravans. If you're after a simple, wooded escape without the frills, Herons Wood delivers exactly that.
