The gate clangs shut behind you and suddenly it's just canvas, grass, and the particular stillness of a working farm settling into evening.
Uppertown Farm keeps things beautifully simple — space for tents and campervans, the kind of place that suits couples after a proper escape and families happy to entertain themselves without a playground in sight. You're in proper countryside here, the sort of spot where you fall asleep to absolutely nothing and wake to birdsong. Worth asking ahead if you've got a dog in tow, and check the campfire situation when you arrive — it varies depending on season and ground conditions.
Facilities aren't listed in detail, so expect low-key rather than luxury, but that's rather the point. This is farming country camping, the vibe quiet and unfussy, where your biggest decision is whether to read in the sun or wander the footpaths. Pack what you need, arrive with realistic expectations, and you'll leave wondering why you don't do this more often.
