Merryweather Farm Campsite

The gate clicks shut behind you and suddenly it's just you, the grass, and the low hum of moorland wind rolling down from the hills — proper countryside quiet, the kind that resets your head after a long week.

Merryweather Farm takes tents and campervans, and with facilities unspecified you're wise to come prepared for a back-to-basics pitch. It's the sort of spot that suits campers who don't need much fuss — couples after a digital detox, dog walkers keen to explore straight from the tent door (though worth asking about the dog policy when you book), or anyone craving space and simplicity. The lack of detail suggests this is a working farm site, so expect a warm welcome but not a polished campsite operation.

Check about campfires when you arrive — if they're allowed, evenings under the stars with a bit of woodsmoke are hard to beat. Pack what you need, keep expectations low-key, and you'll likely find Merryweather delivers exactly what it promises: proper camping, proper countryside, no bells and whistles.
