Quarrywood Glamping: The joy of eco-friendly camping
At Quarrywood Glamping, we care deeply about the local environment and the wildlife that calls it home. We want to offer you a peaceful retreat that respects the earth, which is why we are incredibly proud to be part of The Greener Camping Club.
This partnership helps us ensure that your holiday leaves a positive mark on the planet. By understanding the core values of sustainable camping, you can enjoy a truly restful getaway knowing your visit supports conservation and mindful travel.
What is The Greener Camping Club?
Founded in 2015 by two couples passionate about eco-friendly holidays, The Greener Camping Club champions sustainable, low-impact camping. A members-only organisation, it represents some of the greenest campsites across England and Wales.
Each site is carefully assessed for its environmental impact, wildlife opportunities, and dedication to sustainability, prioritising harmony with nature over mass tourism.
Aligning values at Quarrywood Glamping
Our decision to join The Greener Camping Club at Quarrywood Glamping was entirely natural. We want to share the beauty of our surroundings with you while ensuring that the land remains unspoiled. Being an eco-friendly site means making conscious choices about how we operate, from how we manage our facilities to how we encourage wildlife to thrive on our grounds.
When you stay with us, you become part of a community that genuinely cares about sustainability. We believe that everyone deserves the chance to experience the great outdoors in a comfortable, welcoming setting that does not come at the expense of the earth. Together, we can enjoy the simplicity of nature while actively working to protect it.
Fostering wildlife and biodiversity
Eco-friendly camping is heavily focused on biodiversity. At Quarrywood Glamping, we maintain our grounds in a way that encourages local wildlife to flourish. We leave certain areas wild, protect native plants, and minimise light pollution so that nocturnal animals can go about their business undisturbed. This mindful approach to land management allows you to spot birds, insects, and woodland creatures thriving in their natural habitat right outside your tent.
A commitment to low-impact holidays
Sustainable camping requires a collective effort to reduce our carbon footprint. We encourage recycling, mindful water usage, and responsible waste management. The Greener Camping Club has a simple set of campsite rules designed to keep the environment safe and enjoyable for everyone. Managing campfires correctly and observing vehicle speed limits keeps the air clean, reduces noise pollution, and ensures a thoroughly peaceful atmosphere for all our guests.
The real benefits for our guests
Choosing an eco-friendly glamping experience brings a host of wonderful benefits to your holiday. When you remove the noise, traffic, and overcrowding often found at larger, commercial holiday parks, you are left with something incredibly special.
A truly peaceful atmosphere
Because Greener Camping Club sites are small and intimately connected to the landscape, you can expect a remarkably quiet stay. The focus is always on the natural environment rather than loud entertainment or busy facilities. This quietness gives you the space to read a book, converse with your family around a crackling campfire, or simply sit back and listen to the birdsong. It is a humble, grounding experience that helps you unplug and reset.
Feeling good about your travel choices
There is a unique sense of satisfaction that comes from knowing your holiday aligns with your personal values. Eco-friendly camping allows you to tread lightly on the earth. You can relax completely, knowing that your presence is helping to sustain rural economies and protect green spaces. We want you to feel empowered by your choice to travel sustainably, knowing that your stay contributes to a much larger movement of responsible tourism.
How your membership makes a difference
To stay at Quarrywood Glamping or any other site within the network, guests must join The Greener Camping Club. The good news is that membership costs just £12 for the entire year, and it covers your whole family or your individual stay. You can join easily when you book your holiday with us.
This small fee achieves remarkable things. Each year, the club channels a percentage of its membership fees directly into environmental and humanitarian projects. A significant portion of this goes towards tree planting initiatives and habitat restoration across England and Wales. Your £12 is an active investment in the planet. It helps plant native trees, restore hedgerows, and support charities that make a tangible difference to the world.
By holding a membership, you gain access to a carefully curated list of discerning, eco-conscious campsites. You can travel with confidence, knowing that any club site you visit will share the same high standards for environmental care and guest comfort that we hold at Quarrywood.
