TOILETS & SHOWERS
We have 8 compostable toilets and 3 outdoor hot shower cubicles just a short walk from your tent. All showers are stocked with Faith in Nature shampoo, conditioner and body wash for you to use.
We try to keep things as eco-friendly as possible at Wytch Wood Campsite so the showers go on at 8am and run until 10am. The showers are also available in the evenings by request between 5pm – 7pm, just let me know and I’ll be happy to turn them on for you.
WASHING UP & RECYCLING
We have bio washing up liquid that will be supplied along with comprehensive recycling facilities. Our wash up area is open 24/7.
The washing area consists of:
- Sinks
- Hot & cold water
- Stacking & draining surfaces
- Bio washing up liquid
- 8 Recycling options
LIGHT
We recommend bringing a torch if you have one or even better, a head torch. All the loos have lights in them however, you will need to get there.
It get’s very light, very early in the mornings so if you are easily woken up then it’s worth bringing an eye mask to sleep in. We also have a lot of birds (the dawn chorus is amazing!) and other wildlife around, so if you’re a light sleeper and don’t fancy being woken up at daybreak by birds and animals then earplugs are a good idea.
CAMPFIRE & BBQ
Your pitch has a fire pit and BBQ and for stays over two days includes some logs to get you started. We do ask that if you want to play music you keep it quiet, particularly after 10pm.
COFFEE & BEER
We have an amazing coffee hut on site where you can make sure you get your caffeine hit in the mornings! We are open Friday – Sunday (May – Sep) every morning 8-10am.
We sell latte, espresso, flat white, tea and hot chocolate.
In the evening we swap to a refreshing local beer or cider. Our on site Black Cat Bar stocks:
- Gyle 59
- Isaac Cider
- Burrow Hill Cider
- Sunshine Drinks
FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD
You will be spoilt for choice during your stay. We have the delicious Alternative Indian visit us each Friday preparing tasty Indian Food.
We also supply:
- Cream Teas – these can be requested any day but always available Saturday afternoons
- Picnic packs
- Breakfast packs
- Lamb
We spent 4 nights at Wytch Wood and without a doubt it’s one of the most beautiful camp sites we’ve had the pleasure of spending time at.The design of the site has been creativly curated so that each pitch offers a unique array of surroundings, as well as easy access to shared amenities and each with it’s own compost loo, fire pit, table and chairs. Next to the main campsite is a path to a hillside wood with a 500m walk that has been carefully carved through it, which twists and turns and gives you a short exhibit of the wonders of the forest.The well stocked 24hr honesty shop and bar (each pitch has a clipboard for you to document what you’ve used) was a highlight, as it meant more time soaking up the site and less time driving to shops.Although we didn’t choose these - The Glamping options seemed very well considered and cost effective. We’d be very interested in trying them out next time!Elise and Lucy were Incredibly accommodating and hospitable. Their care and love of the site communicates, with work being done upgrading and maintaining all areas. The pizza oven, morning coffee and array of woods activities are just some of the details that show Wytch Wood really goes above and beyond to better the experience for campers.This campsite is a definite find, and I could not recommend it more!
Absolutely amazing campsite. Beautiful scenery and great amenities. Wood fired pizza was delicious and the morning coffee and evening bar were a nice bonus. The activities were fun too. We would happily return.
Just had a fantastic bank holiday weekend here. First time campers as a family and we couldn't have asked for more. The pitches are set well apart from each other with their own seating and loo. The pizzas are absolutely delicious and were wolfed down by all. There's a bar and an honesty shop for bits and pieces you may have forgotten (and ice cream). For the children, there are woods to explore and streams to play in. Thank you for a great time!
We've just returned after a lovely 2 night stay at Wytch Wood. The campsite is really sympathetically laid out with plenty of space between pitches, giving you the feeling of being in the middle of nowhere. Despite this feeling there was plenty of convenience, good washing up facilities, a well stocked bar with local beers and ciders (bottles), fresh coffee in the mornings, and looks to be wood fired pizzas coming soon.On our pitch we had our own fire pit, private composite loo and a decent table with 4 chairs, which was a great touch.There was a really nice 500m circular walk accessible directly at the back of the site which the kids loved, through old woodland, along babbling brooks and passed carpets of bluebells and wild garlic.Elise, the host, was fantastic from start to end. She clearly cares about the campsite and people's enjoyment and was always on hand to help out or answer any questions.The only slight downside was due to the heavy rain we had during our stay the pitch we were on got slightly water logged and our van got stuck, but Elise came to the rescue with wood chippings and a bunch of fellow campers to help push us out!In short, a great place to stay for a back to nature vibe, we'll be back!
What an amazing place!!! Spent a wonderful weekend here - one of the best campsites we have ever been to. The host Elise is so thoughtful, the care that has gone into every aspect of the campsite made it so special - from a hammock by the river, to complimentary toiletries in the showers, it felt like we were in an oasis! The woods the campsite sits in is so peaceful, and made for exploring through. We loved using the fire pit provided every night. Can’t wait to come back next year 🌲🏕🍂
We enjoyed a spontaneous, (almost) last-minute weekend at Wytch Wood in their new Skyview glamping tent. We needed to get away from the grind of the weekly routine and were looking for somewhere peaceful and quiet, where we could essentially just laze around for a weekend enjoying each other's company. Wytch Wood was just perfect for that purpose!Skyview is a large glamping tent with clear roof panels, meaning you can literally lie in bed looking at the stars. It was a lovely novelty, though we were glad it was possible to hook up the panels and keep out the worst of the early morning light. It was fantastic when it rained during the day, though. Being able to see the rain hammering down above you while being warm and dry was a great feeling.Skyview comes with a porch/kitchen area and a separate kitchen outside, as well as a table and chairs, firepit and hammock. You also get your own compost toilet and there's a small shower block very close by. You barely need to move more than a few feet for anything, which was just what we needed!That said, there is also plenty of woodland to explore if you want to be a bit more adventurous (we couldn't due to one of our family members being injured).We will be returning.
