The clatter of real ale glasses and the low hum of conversation drift from the pub across the grass — this is camping with a proper local at your elbow.

The Railway Inn offers a straightforward pitch-up for tents and campervans, the kind of spot that suits wanderers who'd rather swap stories in the bar than huddle round a stove. Dogs are worth asking about when you book, and campfires fall into the same category — check what's allowed when you arrive, as it'll depend on the season and ground conditions. It's unpretentious, honest camping for people who like their sites small and their evenings sociable.

Facilities aren't listed in detail, so come prepared to be fairly self-sufficient and treat the pub as your evening refuge rather than relying on extensive onsite amenities. The vibe is relaxed and friendly, the sort of place where you wake to birdsong, walk the dog, then settle in for a pint and a pie before the fire. Perfect if you value atmosphere over infrastructure.
