The rattle of a kettle on a gas ring, the soft thunk of a caravan door closing, the rustle of an awning in the breeze — this is touring pitch territory, plain and straightforward.

The Elms caters to caravans and campervans, so it's a natural fit for couples touring the UK, families who like their creature comforts close at hand, or anyone who prefers sleeping in their own portable four walls. Dog owners should ask ahead to check the policy. The facilities aren't widely advertised, so it's worth contacting the site directly to see what's provided — this is the sort of place where you come fairly self-contained.

Expect a no-frills pitch-up: bring what you need, check the campfire rules when you arrive, and settle in without too much ceremony. It's touring-pitch simplicity rather than bells-and-whistles glamping — the kind of spot that works if you're passing through or fancy a quiet night under canvas (or fibreglass) without a lot of fuss.
