Herefordshire

Deep in the North Herefordshire countryside is a gem of a small campsite known as The Buzzards.
There are also cottages available.

The Buzzards Campsite

Monstay is a working farm set in the beautiful countryside of Shropshire, just outside the medieval town of Ludlow.

There are some excellent forest walks near the campsite, and if get up early enough, there's a good chance of spotting the wild deer.

If you don't fancy camping, there's also a shepherd's hut you can hire.

Monstay Farm Campsite, Shropshire

Ludlow is a medieval town with a former Royal Palace Castle, now in ruins.  The town is now famous for its food.

Ludlow Castle

The site itself is actually an untamed ancient orchard that slopes down to woodland and a stream that marks the boundary of our land. You will be camping amongst the wildflowers and the unusual ‘otherworldly’ ant hills that tell us that this land has been undisturbed for centuries.

The opportunities for wildlife ‘safaris’ are endless, from your run of the mill rabbits and more than our fair share of woodland birds to badgers, foxes and muntjac deer roaming around your tent at night, to sightings of fallow deer and buzzards, sparrow hawks and the occasional red kite flying overhead.

We allow campfires, as long as they are off the ground (bring your own fire pit, or you can hire one from us) and we have nets of logs and kindling for sale at our honesty shop, we also sell (amongst other things) locally produced meat for your bbq's (to order) as well as the obligatory marshmallows to toast over the campfire. 

We aim to provide a low impact, sustainable and eco-friendly campsite; it’s a field on a farm, with lots of peace &amp; quiet (although the abundance of wildlife mean that it is anything but quiet), for people who are looking for a real back-to-nature camping experience. Please come and have fun, enjoy a glass of local cider around the campfire but please just be respectful of the other campers and mother nature.

Facilities are basic but comfortable and clean. At the moment, we have 1 composting toilet, 1 gas shower and a covered washing up area. There is no electricity in the campsite and the lighting in the facilities block is solar powered.

The field is a car-free site, which is perfect for families, it’s a short walk from the car park, and we have a fleet of wheelbarrows to ferry your gear. If we're around you may be able to hitch a lift on the quad bike or tractor!

Old gatehouse at Brockhampton Estate

Brockhampton Estate was a little gem in the Herefordshire countryside. A great place for picnics, nature, and history - and a good family day out.

Brockhampton Estate

**The Accommodation**
The Shepherd's hut, settled on top of the slope, gives you far-reaching views across the valley. 

Inside, the hut has electricity (supplied by photovoltaic panels) & lights - along with a double deluxe mattress for a perfect night's sleep. It is well insulated & has a wood-burning stove for all year round toastiness. Self-inflating mattress can be supplied for one child.

**Tents**
Tents can be pitched only by those guests staying in the Shepherd's Hut. If there are more than 3 of you wanting to stay feel free to bring yours.

**Kitchen**
Fully equipped kitchen (incl. gas hob & fridge) with crockery and cutlery for 6.
Or cast yourself back into a simpler age & cook around the kotlich and fire. 

**Things to do**
Children can explore the 3.5-acre site with rucksacks that we provide packed with ideas and equipment. They can also go pond dipping, play on swings, hide in willow dens or build their own (plenty of materials cunningly placed for discovery!). There are maps and games in the hut.

Please note, as the Shepherd's Hut is at the top of the slope (only 2 mins but steep) it would be difficult to get a pushchair up... 

Lots in the area for families to do - paintballing and high ropes at Oaker Wood Leisure, furry creatures at Small Breeds Animal Park and indoor fun at Quackers to name a few...

Adult bikes are available for hire.
