'Wild' camp in the Midlands

Find off-grid camping spots with landowner permission

Off grid locations

Adventure off grid with a camping roadtrip in the Midlands

The epic hikes of the Peak District National Park, the rolling hills and country pubs of the Cotswolds, and the dramatic ridgeline of the Malvern Hills (an AONB, or National Landscape as they’re now known)…

If you like the great outdoors, It’s pretty darn good in the Midlands.

And if you’re exploring in a camper truck or your trusty campervan, it’s even better.

Perfect for road tripping on bumpy rural lanes, our 4x4 campers will see you over the steep, winding bends of Snake Pass (it’s worth it for the dramatic views, promise). So you can get deep off grid and explore the wilderness.

And finding a remote camping spot under the stars is all part of the fun – with full landowner permission, of course.

Can I wild camp in the Midlands?

Wild camping in a campervan or camper truck isn’t permitted in England without the landowner’s consent – including in the Midlands and the Peak District.

But you can still find somewhere wilder to camp.

Our friends at Grid Camp have rounded up some amazing off-grid spots, including rural farmland and secluded meadows, where you can pay to stay and get wild, remote, 4x4 awesomeness. All with the landowner’s permission.

When camping at these locations, you must agree to:

  • be self-sufficient: I will not expect toilets, bins, water or any facilities unless these luxuries (!) are offered by the individual Off Grid Camp locations.
  • leave no trace: I will take all rubbish away with me and leave no trace. Not even a rogue tissue, burnt fire mark or unnecessary tyre tracks.  
  •  'The Poo Pledge': Where no facilities are provided, I agree to bring a shovel or to have a self-contained toilet and ensure that there is no evidence of my business for future campers.  
  • drive responsibly and within your capabilities: I will liaise directly with landowners and adhere to their requests.
