Wild camping at Grass Roots!

Keeping it real with mother nature! 

Back to basics but tonnes of fun! Wild Camping encompasses everything that the wild has to offer. We offer Wild Camping away from the actual Grass Roots site. As you are still on our land, you don't need to worry about breaking any UK Laws. We are set in a vast 100 acres meaning you'll have plenty of room to wander and explore. The further you head out, the wilder it gets! From here, you'll have a real off-the-grid experience and make camp with mother nature. As you'll be off the site, you won't have facilities such as showers, toilets, shops and amenities....so prepare yourself for the elements. But, assuming this proves too much or it's simply not your bag, you can always head back to Grass Roots - assuming that we have availability. Because we're off the beaten track, many of our wild campers incorporate a hike and then a nights sleep (hopefully soundly).


For those new to Wild Camping, we've put together some useful information, tips and what to prepare for.

Things you need to bring:

  • A tent is always a good start ;) And, an open mind!
  • Camping mat/mattress. Make sure there is a groundsheet between the tent bottom and the mattress. Cold from the ground will penetrate the mattress. This is the difference between a good and a terrible nights sleep.
  • Cooking equipment. Don't forget your camping stove, replacement gas, pots & pans, kettle and thermal flask. Pack foods that are easy to store/heat & carry.
  • Warm & waterproof clothing. Sturdy walking boots are a must and extra layers/spare clothes are imperative!
  • A small folding camping stool or chair so that you have a space to sit. Great for stargazing and enjoying a hot cup of tea in the morning.

The ultimate outdoor adventure!
