Naturist camping in the UK takes several forms. You might book a pitch on a Cornish smallholding, a glamping pod near St Albans, or a camping meadow within established club grounds. Some places keep things simple; others add a pool, sauna and shared spaces that make a short stay feel like a proper break. These three English sites show that range, with options for day visits as well as nights under canvas or in booked accommodation.

British Naturism: Sunfolk

Park Street, St Albans · United Kingdom

SaunaPoolShowers

Sunfolk brings a heated pool, sauna and hot tub into a five-acre woodland setting near St Albans. Book a tent, caravan or motorhome pitch, or choose a glamping pod if you prefer to travel light. A shared kitchen and barbecue area support a self-catering stay. Its position near the M1 and M25 makes it an appealing option for a shorter break without a long drive into remote countryside.

Camping, glamping or a day visitOrdinary day visits and camping do not require BN membership. Book and wait for confirmation, then bring the requested photo ID; special private hire has different rules.

Lower Poulza Post

Jacobstow · United Kingdom

ShowersParking

Lower Poulza Post is a naturist campsite on a working smallholding near Jacobstow in Cornwall. Sheltered camping fields, grass and hardstanding pitches and a communal sitting room give it a more straightforward campsite feel than a resort. Showers, washing-up facilities and shared fridge and freezer space cover the essentials. Choose it for a rural base and the company of fellow campers, rather than for a pool or spa.

A naturist field on a working farmNudity belongs within the main campsite field; wear clothes elsewhere on the farm. Overnight stays and day visits are arranged in advance with the owners.

The Naturist Foundation — Brocken Hurst

Orpington · United Kingdom

SaunaPoolShowers

The Naturist Foundation at Brocken Hurst pairs a camping meadow with extensive woodland grounds near Orpington. An 18-metre heated swimming pool, sauna, sports areas and a café give campers plenty to do without leaving the site. A chalet provides another way to stay. It is a useful choice when you want the facilities and shared life of an established naturist venue alongside your own camping setup.

Match the facilities to your stay

A pool, sauna or shared kitchen can matter as much as the pitch itself, particularly for a short break. Lower Poulza Post is a simpler camping choice; Sunfolk and Brocken Hurst add more communal leisure facilities. Read the individual listing before packing.

Make the first visit easy

These are hosted sites rather than public camping fields. Send a booking request, receive confirmation and follow the arrival instructions. At a first visit, a welcome or tour helps you find the naturist areas and understand how each place works.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before you go.

Do I have to be a member to try naturist camping?

Not at every site. Sunfolk explicitly accepts ordinary camping and day visitors without BN membership. Other venues have their own admission and booking arrangements, so check the chosen campsite rather than assuming a universal club rule.

Can I visit before booking a camping stay?

These three sites offer day-visit arrangements. Availability and arrival procedures vary, and a day visit should be agreed in advance. A short visit can help you decide whether the setting and facilities suit a longer stay.
