We’re on farmland bordered by woods at the edge of the village

“The most beautiful village in England” - William Morris

Bibury is a famously picturesque village in the heart of the Cotswolds. Our campsite has views across the Coln Valley, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The site is on farmland, a short walk from the heart of the village along peaceful footpaths.

You can watch a great film about our campsite made by one of the UK’s most popular camping YouTubers here.

Campsite features and facilities

The site is spacious - around four acres for just ten pitches - and sits on pasture edged by woodland. We welcome tents, campervans, motorhomes and caravans and are happy for you to make a campfire (you will find stone ‘grates’ around the site). We sell firewood - please ask when you see us or contact us via the mobile number on this site.

We have converted a horse box into two toilets with flushing loos and two hot water shower cubicles. It has step-free access. On the area of hard-standing there are also electricity points and open-air stainless steel sinks with worktop. We have a hay store that is available in the camping season as a shelter and there are picnic tables dotted around the site. Finally, there are recycling facilities near the entrance.

As we are a working sheep farm we’re afraid we’re unable to welcome dogs.

Bibury Camping is a member of the Greener Camping Club, which is a network of premium quality campsites offering outstanding, environmentally-friendly camping in truly beautiful settings. Membership of the Club is £12 per year: we will charge you for annual membership when you book (and refund you if you’ve already joined).

Bibury village

William Morris - writer, designer, maker and a leading light of the Arts and Crafts movement - called Bibury ‘the most beautiful village in England’. Arlington Row, with its 17th century weavers’ cottages, is internationally famous — even appearing in British passports. The Rack Isle, once used for drying cloth, is a National Trust site.

Life in the village

Bibury is a thriving community: the village has a lively pub, The Catherine Wheel, with excellent food and an orchard pub garden. The local post office and gift shop sells coffee, snacks and souvenirs. The Twig serves hot drinks and baked and deli goods. The Swan Hotel Bar & Brasserie offers modern British cuisine. At the Bibury Trout Farm you can catch your own fish, eat in the cafe, let the children play, or buy ready-prepared trout and essential supplies such as bread, milk and wine - we sell firewood but they usually have some too.
