Top 5 Camping Places in Britain (Part 2)

Spread the love

Exploring this strange small island’s various landscapes or islands might be intimidating. The more you learn, the more there is to know. Camping is ideal since it allows you to set up a shop in the center of the area you want to check out. It’s not a terrible idea to begin each day with the mountains to your left and the sea to your right, whether you’re in the middle of a forest, sitting on the beach of a loch, or standing on the brink of a cliff (maybe not).

Deepdale Backpackers & Campers, Burnham Deepdale, Norfolk

Nearly eighty tent sites and six tipis and yurts may be found at Deepdale Backpackers & Campers. The tipis have been well maintained and include all the essentials: a cast-iron chimenea for warmth, firewood, folding chairs, a grill, and a lamp. It’s magic enough to sleep in a ring and listen to the wind rustle the leaves above you as you sleep.

There is always a full schedule of exciting activities on the farm, from stargazing to cooking demonstrations using fresh, regional ingredients. Moreover, Burnham Deepdale and its surrounding area provide various recreational opportunities. 

Because of how close you are to the ocean, a visit to the shore is necessary; there are plenty of beautiful beaches to explore and excellent coastal hikes. Solar panels supplement an oil burner to keep the water at a comfortable temperature. There is a café conveniently located close to the on-site camping store. Absolutely no flames are allowed.

Crom Campsite

We go farther, over the water, to the picturesque bogs of County Fermanagh. In this National Trust campground, you may relax on the beaches of Upper Lough Erne, an area known for its beautiful scenery and extensive water sports tradition. Canoeing, water skiing, wakeboarding, and wake surfing are all popular pastimes in this area, as is fishing.

You may check out Crom Castle and the area’s old Yew trees on the 2,000-acre Crom estate, where the campground is located. You can escape the crowds of other popular tourist spots and find refuge in some of the world’s most welcoming and helpful rural towns.

Grange Farm, Brightstone Bay, Isle of Wight

The Isle of Wight has transformed from an ultra-green festival host to an incredible little island with enough for everyone to do, including excellent waves for surfers, kite-surfing, paragliding, and annual summer festivals. The island resembles the front of a cow’s head. Cowes, an aptly named town, is at its heart. Yarmouth and Ryde, two cities at its ends with ferry connections to the mainland, sit at its ears. And the beautiful Grange Farm campground may be found high up on the cliffs beyond Brighstone’s beach (about halfway down the cow’s jawline).

It’s a gorgeous, untouched spot in a breathtaking island region. In addition to the two grassy fields extending to the brink of the cliff, a third field across the street has been dubbed the “Hipcamp” Field to accommodate the extra visitors. You’ll need a well-built tent to withstand the winds at the top of these fields, but the ocean view is spectacular, and getting down to the beach is a breeze. Additionally, it is a non-commercial, family-friendly site that has been purposefully kept as is. Children will enjoy getting up close and personal with the llamas (Delboy and Rodney), Kune pigs, goats, water buffalo, and other fowl that call this farm home. If the beach loses its attraction, there is a ball field and a playground with boats, trains, stepping stones, and rope bridges for kids to enjoy. 

Glenbrittle Campsite & Cafe

Glenbrittle Campground may be found on the western coast of Skye, near the base of the Cuillin Mountains, and on the beaches of Loch Brittle. Seeing these massive black mountains when you first open your eyes is a sight.

You’ll want to drive (or ride a bike) with caution on the way in because of the potholes on the twisting road that leads to the campground. On the way to the site, you’ll see streams, woodlands, and wild, tall grass that have been left unchecked. And if you need something to warm you up (and give you some pleasure), the Talisker distillery isn’t far from Glenbrittle.

Craighead Howfs, Dunblane, Scotland

This campground has never been more Instagram-ready. Six unique glamping choices are available at Craighead Howfs, ranging from a Hobbit-themed haven to a luxury treehouse complete with a shower and a panoramic view of the Ochil Hills. Just an hour’s drive from Edinburgh, Craighead Howfs’ one-of-a-kind design and high-end amenities will make for an unforgettable vacation (and Instagram post).

If you were considering booking a quaint UK cottage for your next vacation but ultimately decided you’d have a better time camping, you may stop looking. We’ve compiled a list of the best camping locations in the United Kingdom, including glamping sites and those suitable for campervans.
