The Eco-Campsite. Our History of this Campsite.

Summer Activities

 If you want to relax and enjoy  a very natural  rural campsite, to read or walk or fish or look at Birds, Cattle, Sheep, Ponies, then you will find it here.

We have on the Campsite, for no charge, a Bird Hide, Fridges  Freezers, and some games.

Karma farm has been farming ecologically from 1983, rearing cattle, sheep, pigs and chickens over the years as well as growing a variety of crops. In 2008 we started the small campsite in one of our peaceful meadows near the river bank.      Many campers return due to the peaceful, quiet and casual nature here, and have a discount on camping fees.  The river Lark and its flood plain is great for bird life (see below picture). The location is perfect for walking, canoeing, fishing, bird watching, cycling and a range of other activities perfect for the whole family.

Each camping group has use of  their own lockable toilet / washbasin. We also have a good selection of hot showers,enough for everyone on this campsite to have a warm shower whenever they wish. We have limited the numbers of campers, so all pitches are well spaced and even more private. We like  small groups together 3 - 6 tents, and campervans can have electric hook ups if in pitches A - F, but no electric in Cecil’s /Simons field. Please don’t forget no loud noise after 11 pm, Dogs on leads are welcome.
