The morning sun filters through canvas and catches the dew on guy ropes — this is the kind of simple, unplugged pitch where you remember why you started camping in the first place.
Strawfields welcomes tents and campervans, and it's a spot for those who prefer their camping unfussy and their landscapes real. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so walkers with four-legged companions should ask ahead. The site suits couples after a quiet escape, solo adventurers who don't need all the bells and whistles, and anyone who values space over entertainment blocks.
Facilities are kept minimal — exactly what you bring is what you'll have, so pack accordingly. Campfires are worth checking about when you arrive, as policies can shift with the season and ground conditions. This is authentic, back-to-basics camping for people who know the difference between a caravan park and a proper field under open sky. The vibe is stripped-back and wonderfully uncluttered — leave the hookups behind and bring a good book instead.
