  • Climb trees, ride along forest tracks and splash about in rivers
  • Play in wildflower meadows, get to know our birds & bugs and relax into the rhythm of summer
  • Hang out together, cook up campfire feasts & sleep under our starry skies

Glamping
Ryeford Ponds

It’s easy to feel a world away in Herefordshire, thanks to our wonderfully wild places to stay.  Find them tucked down country lanes, hidden next to rivers, on organic farms and in remote valleys.

Wake up to birdsong and step into a day of adventure. In the evening, cosy up around your campfire, toast marshmallows and stargaze.
