The first thing you notice is how quiet it is — just the rustle of canvas and, if you're lucky, the mewing call of a buzzard circling overhead.

This is a back-to-basics spot for campers and motorhomers who want simplicity over polish. Tents and campervans are welcome, and while facilities are kept minimal — just loos on site — that's part of the appeal if you're after a proper escape from the everyday. Dogs may be allowed, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing a four-legged friend along.

Campfires are possible but check the rules when you arrive, as it'll depend on conditions and where you're pitched. Expect a low-key, off-grid feel — no frills, no fuss, just somewhere to pitch up and breathe. Perfect if you're happy carrying your own kit and don't need showers or electric hook-ups to feel at home under the stars.
