Camping at Bredy Farm
Campsites open on Thursday 28th March 2024 – book now!
The Orchard and Mead Campsites are nestled within the heart of the valley and separated by the meandering River Bride but also connected via a footbridge. We offer over-18’s rustic camping near the beach for the best part of the year allowing the perfect place to get away, unwind and allow time to slow.
*** Weekends get very lively! ***
We can offer quieter camping from Sunday to Thursday. Please make sure you book what’s right for you!
2023 – The Orchard and Mead Campsites open April 6th to September 17th.
2024 – We’re not taking bookings just yet due to a booking system upgrade.

“Favourite camping site. Beautiful setting and surroundings.”
“Bredy Farm is awesome! Had an amazing weekend this weekend for my partners 30th birthday with 40 friends camping. The location, camping and venue couldn’t have been more perfect. The food from the parlour was delicious. And the gimme shelter music festival was lots of fun. Abi was so helpful and accommodating. Thank you to everyone at Bredy Farm!
