Glamping Worcestershire and The Cotswolds
The Orchard Getaway is a glamping site in Worcestershire set amongst plum trees in the beautiful Vale of Evesham. The lovely market town of Evesham is nearby and the Cotswolds is just 10 minutes away. Our seven metre Mongolian yurt sits at the top of the orchard and sleeps four people in one double and two single beds with its own shower, composting toilet, outside kitchen and seating area. Further down the orchard we have three fully furnished bell tents with their own picnic tables and a shared mess tent with a social cooking and eating area. Other communal facilities include showers and compost toilets.
There are several walking and cycle routes nearby including some long-distance paths such as the Cotswold Way and Wychavon Way. Ask us for advice on routes, or support if you’d like transport to or from particular sections of these paths.
The Orchard Getaway is totally off grid so there is no electricity, but you’ll be provided with candles and solar or battery-powered lights. We also have books and games to borrow and to keep you entertained. Campfires are permitted on site so gather round the crackling logs and admire the starry sky away from modern gadgetry.
