Alternative accomodation on site

We have a motorhome and have friends who want to join us regularly for trips away but staying in separate accommodation on the same site such as glamping pods, shepherds huts and log cabins etc. Does anyone know if there is a list available or an easy way of finding out which sites across the UK (CAMC and other sites) that offers this type of alternative accommodation alongside the standard motorhome/caravan pitches.

Thanks for any help.

    For the club see:

    https://www.experiencefreedom.co.uk/

    And then filter for location where it will give you the club sites that have them. You'll get 10% off for being a club member. We've used the cabins at Troutbeck Head and they were great.

    For other providers a simple google search including location should help and also the other club have them as well.

    The Club is just playing catch up.

    Every commercial campsite and most family owned ones (no, not CLs) have had a variety of accommodation on site for years. So choose a region, pick a few campsites, look at websites, and see what’s on offer.

    But if you want Devon or Cornwall I can suggest one or two possibilities.

    Like Corners says, Troutbeck Head is a serious contender as is Cayton Village. If public transport is required then the latter has really good and regular bus connections.

    The Club are gradually adding to the locations where "Experience Freedom" accommodation can be found. I think that Sandringham might be next. Others have helpfully provided links to what is currently on offer.

    There are also a number of CLs that offer alternative accommodation. Perhaps if you could indicate an area that you wish to visit members could help identify those specific sites.

    You can use www.ukcampsite.co.uk to find sites with accommodation.

    I've done a dummy run using Cheshire and a 50 mile radius using the filter system. See below

    Alternative accommodation here

    Set your own filters obviously.

    Try PitchUp.  They seem to cover all sorts.  Lots of really lovely sites as well.
