Boothby is at the start of its nature restoration journey, offering a valuable insight into the planning stages and early interventions that will eventually transform into a dramatic rewilded landscape. We’re hosting regular rewilding tours and bird ringing demonstrations, alongside our weekly volunteering activities. Meet our expert team, join forces with our community supporters and indulge in the restorative effects of nature. What better way to spend your summer break!

Nigel R. Aug 2024

Unpowered grass and earth tent site

Liked: Peace & quiet; clean (compost) toilets; warm shower; interesting landscape project with guided tour

Disliked: Wash-up station - no warm water, nowhere to put anything down;
Being woken up at 5am by bird ringers.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for joining us Nigel - we appreciate your support and feedback. Noted on the washing up station & early tours (we'll aim to move a toilet to the car park for the tour guests to avoid this.)

Yurt (two person)

Liked: Wonderful stay in Boothby Wildland. My very first yurt/glamping experience and it didn't disappoint. Interesting to learn about re-wilding and the work they do. Yurt came with a comfortable bed and very well equipped. Beautiful settings and surroundings. Great communication from the team re bookings and directions etc. Highly recommended.

Fantastic site with perfect skies and landscape. Good local pub too.

Yurt (two person)

Liked: Just brilliant. Really great terrain, comfortable Yurt. HOT showers. Compost toilets ( if it's quiet keep door open! Best 'poo with view' ever 😅 ). Fire pits ( logs provided , on site). Incredible sky, sunsets and the stars, just wow. This is a rewilding project just 3 years in. So think Knepp 20 years ago. Will be going back year after year to compare and see the progress.😁. Owls, Kites, Herons and diverse wildlife. Wild Ponies, Cattle and Beaver to come. Bring it on. www.nattergal.co.uk for info and camping details.

Disliked: Leaving 😔
