Freespirit Glamping

22/08/2025

We currently have a fire ban in place because of this and hardly any rain since February. We are still allowing our own BBQs and log burners to be used and have additional safety measures in place. Disposable BBQs are banned on site. We ask all our customers to take extra precautions when visiting us and the area. Thank you.

We remain at the scene of the moor fire at Langdale and are likely to be there for some time to come.

Crews continue to carry out hotspotting and are working to contain the fire spread from the perimeter due to the presence of unexploded ordnance on the site. We continue to be supported by partners, farmers and contractors and again thank them for all their help.

Fire investigation work has started but no cause has been established at this time.

We continue to ask people to avoid the area, but the rest of the National Park remains open. There is still an extreme fire risk so if you're visiting please follow the wildfire prevention advice- don't have BBQ/campfires, take glass bottles and jars home and don't throw ci******es or matches on the ground or out of car windows

The smoke from this incident is impacting different areas depending on the wind direction. Our advice remains to keep doors and windows shut if you’re affected by smoke. There’s also advice at www.northyorks.gov.uk/north-yorkshire-local-resilience-forum/our-risks-north-yorkshire/community-risks-wildfire

Larry the Lawn Tractor meets Tabby the Trailer and together they are making great things happen at Freespirit Glamping!

One day one Tabby transported last minute log orders to customers, took towel sets to Sunflower tent and Tentwarmer kits to Rose tent. She's also been helping clean the fire pits and shifted piles of rubbish and dirty laundry across the site.

Larry is quite attached to her already and he's thinking of getting hitched. I think I'm being taken for a ride by these two!

Imagine my surprise when this turned up at the gate. A man dressed in army camo clothing got out and said they had a call from the police to diffuse a bomb at this postcode! 😱

Knowing nothing about a bomb or the police I called around. No bombs here, thankfully 😂 Turns out they were meant to be the other side of the valley dealing with an unexploded WW2 "device"!

Another exciting day as a glamping site owner.

Knowing there are no bombs on site, it's a great time to book your summer getaway on our website!

Fire ban in force

Due to the very long dry period and the drastically increased fire risk on the moors and our site, we have taken the difficult decision to remove all fire pits and ban open fires until further notice.

The safety of our customers and the protection of the wonderful location we use are our top priority.

We are still allowing the use of our BBQs as they are contained. We are providing additional water bottles for pouring on anything that falls on the ground. Please ensure all BBQs are left closed after cooking.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and will refund any prepurchased wood packs of required. Thanks for your understanding.

One of the best things about staying at Freespirit Glamping is the dark skies at night. You get to see the galaxy in it's full glory and impressive large moons.

One of the most common questions we get asked is "What is in the tents?". Whilst we do have a FAQ on the website, I thought I'd do a little tour video for you. This will be added to the website very soon.

What do you think?
