The forest floor smells of damp leaf mould and you can hear nothing but birdsong and the occasional rustle of something small in the undergrowth.

This is one for campers who want proper woodland camping in the heart of Warwickshire — tents tucked between the trees, campervans and caravans pitched where the canopy opens up enough to let the sky in. It suits families after a bit of adventure without straying too far from the Midlands, couples wanting a quiet escape, and anyone who'd rather wake to green light filtering through branches than a view of someone else's guy ropes. The woods here are the real draw, and you're in easy reach of Stratford-upon-Avon and the wider Shakespeare country if you fancy a day out.

There are toilets and showers onsite, and campfires may be allowed depending on conditions when you arrive, so check when you book in. The vibe is low-key and off-grid-ish — you're here for the trees, not the amenities.
