The gate swings open onto rough grass and the kind of wide sky that makes you remember why you came. Lower Hill keeps things simple — pitches for tents and campervans, no frills, no fuss.

This is one for campers who'd rather sort themselves out than be sorted — couples after a quiet weekend, dog walkers who want space to roam (though best to ask first about your four-legged friend). The site sits in proper countryside, the kind where you'll hear more birdsong than traffic, and Harley Coarse Fishery is close enough if you've brought the rods.

Facilities aren't shouted about here, so come prepared and check what's what when you arrive — campfires included, as permissions can vary. It's the sort of spot where you pitch up, breathe out, and let the clutter fall away. Low-key, honest, and unapologetically off the beaten track.
