Well-kept CAMC members-only campsite 15 minutes’ drive from Daventry Warwick Castle 35 minutes’ drive and Stratford-upon-Avon 45 minutes Grass pitches with countryside views; two pubs in 15 minutes’ walk Tucked in-between the rural villages of Lower and Upper Boddington in Northamptonshire, Coleman’s Hill Certificated Location is a tiny Caravan and Motorhome Club members-only campsite with easy access off a hard-standing track for touring caravans and motorhomes.

Mature trees surround the (slightly sloping) grass pitches, which sit on the brow of a hill with spectacular views over fields and valleys. Sheep graze in the neighbouring paddocks and bridleway rambles direct from the camping meadow lead you to Boddington Reservoir (half an hour’s walk) – great for exercising the family and any accompanying canines.

From this quiet haven 15 minutes’ drive from Daventry, you can strike out on day trips to Warwick Castle (35 minutes) and book Shakespeare plays at Stratford-upon-Avon (45 minutes); alternatively stay closer to base camp and venture no further than the two local pubs within 15 minutes’ walk. If you’re sticking with self-catering, there’s a convenience store at Byfield, five minutes’ drive away, for picking up bits for your barbecue.

Facilities-wise, each spacious pitch is serviced with water and a grey water disposal point; there is a shared chemical toilet disposal point and a general waste bin, as well as a washing-up sink, showers and an outside bath in a wooden cabin at the edge of the field.
