  • Colourful site with donkeys, Highland cows, goats, pigs and peacocks
  • A five-minute drive from Atherstone and 10 from Twycross Zoo
  • Clubhouse with hammocks, woodburner, sofas and café on site
Tired of one-size-fits-all hols? Trundle along to Ettie’s Field, five minutes’ drive from the Warwickshire town of Atherstone, for colourful stays in a peaceful setting. The site has a little café, Flours by Ettie's, for teas and coffees. This is a site where garden-variety is absolutely not the name of the game, with highland cows, donkeys, Nubian goats, Kunekune pigs, chickens, turkeys and peacocks hanging around, and a laidback attitude prevailing all around. All family members are welcome, so feel free to bring canine chums along (there’s even a dog-walking field when they need some time off lead) – this is prime walking country, with a handful of pubs within 15 minutes’ stroll, and the trails of Hoar Park and Hartshill Hayes within 20 minutes’ drive.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Fantastic site, absolute gem!! the owners were extremely welcoming, lovely vibes, amazing views and the shower facilities were some of the best we’ve experienced. Fantastic views from all of the hard standing pitches. Some beautiful finishing touches make this site what it is. Cracking pub with a very reasonably and extremely tasty Sunday lunch about a mile away. Can’t wait to visit again!

Disliked: Nothing to dislike!!

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: The toilet and washing facilities are really lovely, very unique and give the sense that real care is taken to make your stay feel special. Site is well laid out and very unique, unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side for some of it and my camper got bogged down...unfortunately i made a bit of a mess getting it out due to us being at the bottom of the field that was very wet...apologies 🙏🏼

Disliked: Disappointed that the cafe and chill facilities didn't open as it was the half term period. We didnt actually meet anyone from the site either, although when i did call they told me they had something on?

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: The site itself is lovely with nice touches everywhere from chmineas at each pitch to funny quotes on the toilet rolls. I had the animal experience which was absolutely amazing! I got to sit on a hay bale while a Highland cow either side of me was eating the hay....goats everywhere and the two most friendly kune kune pigs....peacocks, turkeys,chickens, donkeys and dogs....all part of a loving family. The hosts were amazingly welcoming and the bohotique is great where you can sit and have a coffee, buy wood for the chimineas or something more substantial. We will definitely be going back.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Lovely site with lots of nice touches - the light strings are so much nicer than the usual bright white downlights found on most campsites, the washrooms were thoughtfully decorated and clean, and it was such a lovely quiet spot. Contactless check-in was easy and painless after a long journey.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Loved our stay at Ettie's Field. We only stayed one night while visiting the NEC Motorhome Show but will be back for a longer stay. Good facilities, lovely shower, good layout of the pitches which were all a good size. In the evening the solar string lights came on which gave the site a lovely feel. Great to see the donkeys, highland cows, pigs and goats. Even though we only stayed one night it is on my favorite campsite list.

Local attractions

If the site’s coterie of alpacas, donkeys and peacocks isn’t enough to satisfy ardent zoologists, Ettie’s Field is well placed for even more encounters of the fluffy, feathered and four-footed kind. Guests can walk with the animals at Lucky Tails Alpaca Farm or get into a flap at Tropical Birdland, both 20 minutes’ drive from base, or have more exotic days closer to home at Twycross Zoo, 10 minutes away. There’s plenty hereabouts for active types too: fans of the Winter Olympics can go for gold in skiing, snowboarding or skating at Snowdome, and there are rope courses, zip wires, underground tunnels and barefoot trails (for a start) that energetic people can try at Conkers, all within half an hour of the site. History buffs might want to slow things down – luckily there’s plenty round here to ease them into the past, starting with the award-winning Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre 10 minutes away, and moving on to the ruins of Ashby-de-la-Zouch castle and the far less ruined Calke Abbey, Coombe Abbey, Kenilworth Castle (and Elizabethan Garden) and Warwick Castle within an hour. Come vrooming back to the present with a visit to the Triumph motorbike factory, then keep things high(ish) octane with family days less than an hour away at Drayton Manor theme park and Hatton Adventure World, and a little further afield at Alton Towers.
