off-grid woodland camping
At Badgells Wood we’re on a mission to inspire a love of the woods. We’ve created an experience as close to wild camping as possible. A chance to immerse yourselves in our beautiful ancient woodland and allow nature, and the magic of the campfire, to send you home feeling healthy, energised and relaxed.
A stay at Badgells Wood is a chance to disconnect from the everyday and reconnect with nature, with others and with yourself. A place for creating lasting memories with your loved ones.
Welcome to
an Experience Made of the Woods.
we’re hiring!
Do you have an interest in the countryside and enjoy working outdoors? Are you self-motivated, trustworthy and capable of working unsupervised (although we do not allow lone-working with chainsaws!)?
WELL FED CAMPERS.
You’ll be relieved to hear that Marta is back with us for 2024, serving up your morning caffeine and pastry fix from her horsebox!
NEW FOR 2024 - Alkham Valley Pizzas are with us every Friday night! Plus we now have a licence to sell alcohol on site, so can offer a selection of locally sourced beers, ciders and wines too!
Delicious coffees, pastries, pizzas and drinks…we’ve got it all covered - so you can just concentrate on setting up the perfect campfire to sit back and relax around!
Upcoming Events at Badgells Wood.
Alongside our regular Saturday bushcraft schedule, we’ve got more new experiences to bring to you this season. At very opposing ends of the spectrum of activities to be held in the woods, we have Yoga and Axe-Throwing sessions running every Saturday…don’t worry, they’re held in very different parts of the campsite…!
Basket Weaving and Spoon Carving workshops will run from 10am to 4pm, to enable you to really immerse yourself in a day of learning a new skill…after all, you’re never too old! And we’ve a new schedule of Foraging Workshops for you to make the most of what the woodlands have to offer.
Check out our School of Nature & Bushcraft page to see more details about these and all the regular activities we run through the year.
