WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
FACILITIES @ WYTCH WOOD
Hot showers stocked with ‘Faith in Nature’ products
The showers are a great experience if we do say so ourselves. The clear roof means that you feel like you’re still in the middle of nature.
NB. Showers are available from 8am to 8pm and switched off at all other times.
They are heated by low-flow gas powered units which heat only the water that is needed on demand. What’s more, we supply ‘Faith in Nature‘ shampoo, conditioner and body wash for you to use during your stay – a different fragrance is in each shower so you can find your favourite during your stay!
Clear, fresh, spring water
We provide beautiful (and free) clear spring water for you to drink during your stay.
Our water comes from springs further up the valley, and is one of the uppermost tributaries of the River Axe. UV treated and tested regularly it’s fresh and delicious – so please leave the bottled water at home and fill from the tap – it’s free!
Recycling facilities
We want to help make recycling as easy as possible, so along with your own food waste bin and recycling tub we give you lots of recycling options.
Please separate all hard plastic bottles and trays, cans, glass bottles, gas canisters, food waste, card and paper, batteries, and tetra packs. The only things we can’t really recycle are plastic films, wipes, sanitary items and nappies.
Washing-up area
Our washing-up area boasts hot water and ‘Green Bear‘ biologically friendly washing-up liquid.
The Wytch Wood washing-up area houses our three stainless steel sinks – reclaimed from an old dairy! Hot water is provided, but please use prudently and don’t run the hot water continuously.
We also provide Green Bear washing up liquid. Our sinks drain direct into a soakaway, so please clear plates before you wash them with the blue roll available and don’t use other washing up liquids which are damaging to the soil.
Seats, benches and trails
Explore the campsite on foot and take time to enjoy the scenery and wildlife that Wytch Wood has to offer. We’ve put benches and seating in public areas around the campsite to help you get the best from your surroundings, or take a much needed rest.
Nature boards, books and local area maps
Explore the local area and the local wildlife with our selection of books and guides available to borrow.
We’ve recommended our favourite spots in the local area for you to explore so you won’t need to drive for miles once your staying with us.
Garden areas with wildlife-friendly planting
Bringing some balance to the campsite, we continue to add areas which increase biodiversity and habitat variety for animal and plant life.
Check out our pollinator patch, Greener Camping Club tree garden, woodland walk and new three sisters vegetable garden.
Liam Turner-Vos26 January 2024This place is really amazing. Beautiful quiet campsite with individual character pitches. I took my boys and they loved it. Booked again for another visit for 2024 and will probably become a traditional for us to visit.Donna Orman16 September 2023Amazing stay. Wonderful camp site, well managed, with great atmosphere. Left very relaxed. Pizza was an added treat.Phoebe Chambers15 September 2023We thoroughly had a fantastic time staying at Wytch Wood. It was obvious from the get go that a lot of thought, love and effort has gone into creating this beautiful campsite, with a conscientious approach to nature. We love how each pitch has their own complementary fire pit, handmade table and chairs and even a trug full of logs free of charge as you arrive - something you rarely get on other campsites! We stayed at Toby's Double pitch which is right next to the stream on the edge of the woodland, but still gets plenty of sunshine throughout the day. Falling asleep next to the sound of running water was absolute bliss... as was seeing an eel in the stream and waking up to owls hooting, horses neighing away in the distance and serene birdsong. All of the pitches are generously spaced out so you get plenty of privacy without feeling like you're too penned in. We even had our own compost loo which was super convenient and clean and tidy. The showers were simple yet a great set up with complimentary Faith in Nature shampoo and conditioner - again, an offering you rarely get on other campsites. They have thought of everything essential you need here - at the entrance to the site there are plug sockets to charge devices and a makeshift shop selling local beers/ciders/snacks and most necessities you might have forgotten to pack - all with an honesty box to contribute to. The homemade Pizzas we had on Saturday were epic! We were also really grateful to be given some homemade apple and elderberry crumble made by one of the ladies running it - it was really thoughtful and kind of her. They were friendly, relaxed and always easy to find if we needed anything. Walking around you can see all the new trees they have planted including figs and apple trees which we thought was very forward thinking. There was a lovely well looked after herb bed too. If you are looking for all this, at excellent value for money and in an incredible setting nearby to lots of lovely villages and beaches, then you really must go here. Thank you for a wonderful stay - we hope to come back in the future. Phoebe and Mel xAnca Alias1 September 2023A really nice place with a lot of activities and communal spaces with different vibes to chill or play board games or read a book and relax. Family friendly with lots of space for kids to play. Fantastic pizza and they also have coffee, croissants and more, in the morning. The owner was lovely and very helpful.Lucy Oates31 August 2023This is the perfect campsite- we stayed for 4 nights and would have stayed longer if we could! The pitches are really spaced out, so it feels peaceful and private. Great countryside views. We appreciated the private composting loo for each pitch. The honesty shop served us very well, we loved having a campfire every night with toasted marshmallows :) the local area is beautiful too. The campsite owner is super helpful and welcoming. We also enjoyed chatting to Jonny who was the cleaner while we were there, very nice guy. We would love to come back one day and will be recommending to family/friends.Jacqueline Dangerfield31 August 2023Absolutely wonderful experience amazing vibes and everyone was so nice . Loved the facilitiesKPM27 August 2023Family of 5 (3 children aged 9,7,4) and our first time camping/glamping. Wytch wood was a fabulous site with everything we could have possibly needed and all very comfortable. We rented a bell tent and it was spacious, set up brilliantly and the beds were comfy and cozy. We had the best time and Elise was an incredible host. Thank you for a magical time!Matt White (MattWPBS)25 August 2023Only spent one night here, but already planning to come back next year for longer! Stayed on pitch 7 (Toby's Double), and was able to string my hammock tent up between two sturdy trees. I think this is one of the smaller pitches here, but even so it's fully equipped with table and benches, firepit and your own composting loo. The rest of the site is glorious as well, there's showers up the top, and a great little communal area with charging, a community fridge/freezer, and an honesty shop with local products (try the gelato and the kombucha). In the morning there's fresh coffee available from Elise, and two nights a week they fire up the pizza oven(!). The best bit though? There's a babbling brook that runs through the bottom of the site. Despite all the facilities, the low number of pitches and separation between them allows this to feel nearly like wild camping in terms of closeness to nature. Heavily recommend Wytch Wood!Sebastian Janik23 August 2023Super miejsce dla osób ceniących sobie ciszę i spokój, sklepik na miejscu z najpotrzebniejszymi artykulami, lodówka, można kupić kawę i ciastko. Gry planszowe. Cena do jakości uczciwa. Właścicielka bardzo miła i uprzejma.
