The woodland and Dreamery - England's lost fairy gardens

Decorative underline divider.

Get out of the city and leave behind the sounds, smells and stress, rediscover yourself and let our woodland retreat weave its magic. Uplifting birdsong by day and atmospheric owls by night as well as 200 fabulous acres to get lost in!

The camp is well hidden – accessed by a private road, with mobile reception but no wifi. So you can rediscover the forgotten art of conversation, build a den, or pretend its 1978 and play board games by candlelight. Enjoy the magic of starry nights around the campfire and create unforgettable moments with family and friends. We don’t think you’ll find a more magical location for a group weekend or family break.

“The wood still had some of the mystery of wild old England”

This woodland echoes with the past and is part of the area where Saxons under Harold defeated the Vikings in 1066 on 25th September near Stamford Bridge before the long march to meet Norman the Conqueror at Hastings on the 14th October.  

We’re not like other glamping sites, we’re not about providing endless swanky extras and TV’s in your accommodation.  We are true to our proud heritage as the original and authentic woodland camp. That means comfort without the constant stresses and reminders of modern life – allowing you to escape, relax and enjoy the magic of nature.

Families

If you’re looking for a great family glamping holiday close to York, Jollydays is the perfect place to visit. There is something so special about spending time in the woods – they have a magic all of their own.

Children at the camp are freed from technology and have time to dream, muck about and discover and connect with what’s real.

Couples

The woodland is a lovely place to chill out as a couple, time to get away from constant distractions and focus on each other, relaxing and having fun. Many have proposed in the woods or spent a mini moon with us.

Happily you get the added benefit of 25% off all glamping accommodation! If you want to have your own bath in a mural painted bathroom choose a bothy.

Friends

We’re not about curated perfection or polished resort experiences. We’re about togetherness. Real connection. Evenings that stretch long and conversations that matter.

The Dreamery Hideaway offers comfort, atmosphere and space to breathe – a place where friendships deepen and stories are written under open skies.

Winding woodland paths, hidden clearings and handcrafted spaces create a sense of quiet discovery, where celebrations feel deeply personal and naturally intimate.

Dreamery Hideaway

Beneath the trees and away from the everyday, The Dreamery Hideaway offers a unique setting for private dining by arrangement. Woodland surroundings, long tables and thoughtfully prepared food create an atmosphere that feels relaxed, unhurried and quietly special. Here, shared meals become moments to linger over – shaped by nature, conversation and a sense of togetherness that unfolds naturally.

What to expect at the Dreamery Hideaway

Decorative underline divider.

Yes you have constant hot water, comfy beds (made up for you), toasty wood burners and well equipped kitchens, but we offer you so much more. Reconnecting with nature and simpler times, staring at a campfire, instead of a screen and sharing those awe inspiring starry nights with our majestic trees.

Realistically – it’s not even close to a hotel and you won’t find tarmac roads, floodlighting in the car park, central heating or 24 hour staff. Nature is everywhere, expect hares, deer, badgers, squillions of birds and of course insects.

If a bit of mud (or dust if it’s dry) and getting up close to nature is not your thing then the Hideaway is not for you.

We look forward to welcoming you into the woodland magic soon...
