Wytch Wood Camping and Glamping is delighted to share that they are semi-finalists in the 2024 West Country Women in Business Awards in the Green Business category.
The West Country Women Awards shine a spotlight on women who have demonstrated excellence and innovation in areas such as business, entrepreneurship, sport, STEM, resilience, health, combatting violence against women and girls and many other categories. By highlighting their remarkable contributions, the awards seek to inspire future generations and foster a culture of inclusivity and equality.
We are now through to the finalist announcement at Powderham Castle, Exeter on the 5th of November – keep your fingers crossed!

“These awards bring together two of the areas of business I’m most passionate about- equality and recognition for women in all areas of business, and the importance of ethical and sustainable business practices. So it really is exciting to be involved.”
Elise Gwyn, Head Wytch at Wytch Wood.

EXCELLENT Based on 120 reviews Posted on Duncan GraingerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such a beautiful place and fantastic owner. We are already looking forward to going back next year! The site is brilliantly maintained and the facilities are top notch.Posted on Jenny CoxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were lucky enough to get a last minute booking over the August bank holiday in the skyview bell tent. 4 of us including 2 children. We were blessed with gorgeous weather and both the bell tent and entire site were amazing. I've never been able to go to sleep watching the stars above or wake up to the trees and blue skies overhead. There was ample board games and outdoor games to keep the children (and us adults) entertained. We all adored watching the bats of an evening too. The showers were powerful and clean. Loved having access to the beautifully scented shower products, that was a treat in itself! The compost loos were also no problem at all. We enjoyed marshmallows over the camp fire and walks into the forest and around the local countryside. The honesty shop was just great and we enjoyed having access to some chilled local cider and the kids loved having an ice cream each day. The coffee truck with morning pastries was also a real treat. The lady in charge of the site was very friendly and helpful as were others we met in passing who were running some kids activities etc. we are so blessed to have this place just down the road from us. We will most definitely be back. Thank you for the most wonderful stay.Posted on ella burkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a lovely 2 nights camping here, they have everything you could need in a beautiful setting. Will returnPosted on Rachel GildeaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Spent a magical three days at Wytch Wood Camping on the SkyView Glamping pitch which made the camping experience with two small children very easy and enjoyable. Nestled in a peaceful and beautiful woodland with a stream running through it, the site is secluded and the pitches feel private and well spaced out. There’s also a wonderful communal space with games for kids and a bar, honesty shop and delicious pizzas available. It’s a 30 min drive to the Jurassic coastline too. We loved our stay, thank you to Elise and the team for making us feel so welcome. We can’t wait to come back next season!Posted on Michael OsborneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stayed here for 1 night with my family of 5. Lovely woodland pitch, well equipped with fire pit, table/chairs and chemical toilet. Communal facilities (washing up station, showers and cafe) were great + communal areas with sports equipment and games were added bonus. Perfect blend of woodland 'wild camping' feel but with sufficient facilities to make everything more practicalPosted on Grace GTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Camping with a touch of magic! From the unique individual pitches to the natural toiletries in the shower, this campsite has it all. Fresh coffee in the morning followed by a walk in the surrounding enchanted woodland. Wood fired pizzas and drinks at the bar in the evening with games to entertain the kids, there really is something for everyone! Elise thank you so much for accommodating us all and for responding to all my annoying emails prior to booking. We will definitely return.Posted on Charley JarvisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our family of 3 spent 5 days at Wytch Wood and had a truly magical time. The location is beautiful, Elise and the staff are super friendly and accommodating, the honesty shop, pizza and bar were amazing additions and feel like such a treat for a campsite. Our tent flooded after a heavy downpour on our third day, and the team at Wytchwood went above and beyond to help us by providing tarps and reinforcements for our pitch. Despite the slightly soggy tent, the whole 5 days were amazing and we'll definitely be back!Posted on Harry PenmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We stayed in the Birdsong glamping pod at Wytch Wood Camping and absolutely loved it. The whole site is really peaceful and beautifully laid out, with loads of space between pitches so you never feel on top of anyone else. The facilities were spot on, having your own toilet on the pitch was great, and the fire pit barbecues are brilliant for a proper campfire bbq. The shop, bar and and coffee truck in the morning were great also. Everything’s been thought through but it still feels simple and natural. A lovely, chilled-out spot in the woods with a few nice touches of comfort, I’d definitely recommend Wytch Wood.Posted on Karl BobelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just come back from a short stay and wished we could stop for longer. It is such a peaceful calm site with everything you need. The hosts and everyone that worked there were really welcoming, helpful and accomodating. The addition of a bar and pizzas on site were a really good touch as well as the little shop for the basics you may have forgotten. We stayed in the waters meet pitch and it was very peaceful and it was nice to just sit by the fire listening to the owls and watching the bats fly about. The addition of the firepit and BBQ frame were a nice touch that I particularly enjoyed. 10/10 campsite and we will be returning for longer next time.Posted on Claymore RichardsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The most lovely campsite. We had a fantastic time, set in a beautiful secluded valley, this peaceful campsite captured our hearts. Loved the whole experience, from the meet and greet to homemade pizza, and a lovely friendly communal area. Thank you
