The clatter of sheep across the valley carries up to the pitches at first light, while wood pigeons settle in the hedgerows that mark the edge of this working farm site.
Bank House Farm suits campers and motorhomers after a genuine farm stay without the bells and whistles — this is quiet countryside camping where you pitch among grazing land and dry-stone walls. Dog walkers will want to ask ahead about lead rules around livestock, and if you're planning a fire, check what's allowed when you arrive; working farms tend to keep an eye on open flames depending on the season and how dry the grass is.
Facilities aren't listed in detail, so it's worth ringing ahead to check what's onsite — some farm sites keep things simple with a basic ablution block and fresh water, others offer a bit more. Expect a peaceful, down-to-earth vibe where the farmer knows your pitch number and the only real entertainment is the view. This is camping for people who like it straightforward, with countryside all around and none of the holiday park gloss.
