Is CampCompass UK free to use?

Yes. Browsing campsites, reading trip reviews, community forums and posting on the Trip Wall are free while we grow — no credit card required.

How many UK campsites are on CampCompass?

Over 22,000 UK campsites — the largest honest comparison database in the country, covering England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, sourced from Pitchup, OpenStreetMap and user contributions.

How do I share a photo of my UK camping trip?

Visit https://camp-compass.uk/share-your-trip, enter your email for a 1-click sign-in link, tag the campsite you visited and drop a photo. The whole flow takes under 2 minutes.

Does CampCompass take commission on bookings?

No. CampCompass is community-first — we don't rank sites by affiliate revenue. Bookings for Pitchup-listed sites earn a small referral fee that funds hosting; independent sites link straight to the campsite's own site.

Do I need an account to browse UK campsites?

The homepage, top campsites, community wall and reel content are free to browse with no account. A free account unlocks per-campsite details, price comparisons, favourites, messages and the ability to post your own trips.
