Home to every kind of camping

From pop-up farm sites, to caravan parks, glamping and more, Hipcamp supports many ways to host campers.

A farm site in the Peak District, Derbyshire Janice & Paul run a working farm in the White Peak with simple camping and straightforward facilities. Keeping pitch numbers modest makes it manageable alongside farm life, while weekend stays provide a useful seasonal income stream.

A caravan park near King's Lynn, Norfolk King's Lynn Caravan Park offers fully serviced touring pitches, alongside camping and a small number of glamping options. Listing on Hipcamp helps them reach new campers online beyond their core repeat audience.

Luxury glamping near Troutbeck, Cumbria On a Lake District hill farm, Ewe Love added three premium pods to complement livestock and conservation work. It's a small-unit model with higher value per booking, helping fund stewardship projects while farming stays priority.

A pop-up campsite in Bedfordshire Wild Canvas runs a popular pop-up campsite, returning each year for peak school-holiday demand. The short run keeps it fun and focused, uses temporary infrastructure, and avoids year-round planning and overheads.

A motorhome site on the Isle of Mull, Scotland Port nan Gael is a lochside touring campsite next to the Isle of Mull ferry terminal, well set up for campervans and caravans. Being positioned on a key West Coast route helps them capture road-trippers and island hoppers passing through.

Wild camping near Okehampton, Devon Phil hosts a small lakeside wild-camping spot near Dartmoor—no facilities, campfires allowed, and a handful of pitches. It's a low-overhead setup that works well on selected dates, using land that's otherwise unused.

A permaculture farm near Snowdonia, North Wales Henbant is an agriwilding permaculture farm that hosts campers alongside courses and forest-school programmes. Hosting helps fund biodiversity and land stewardship, while stays introduce guests to how food is grown.

Camping experiences in the Scottish Borders Lynne started an alpaca trekking business, before adding a small number of off-grid camping pitches alongside. The two support each other—camping extends the experience into an overnight stay, while the alpacas are a big attraction for guests.

“Hipcamp attracts the right kind of people. People who are ready to be in touch with nature, leave no trace, and are looking for more of a getaway versus a hotel stay. — Margaret & Dean, Hosts since 2016
