Wild Canvas, the five-week wellness camping experience

The camping pop-up, renowned for festival vibes, will run across the summer and include a new wellness area with riverside sauna 

Wild Canvas, the one-of-a-kind camping experience with a relaxed festival atmosphere has gone on sale for Summer 2024.

The five-week pop-up, now in its fifth year, is nestled within the picturesque riverside meadows of the historic Turvey House Estate in Bedfordshire – just 1.45 hours from London. 

School holidays with a difference

Running across the school holidays, from Thurs 25th July to Tuesday 27th August, the event is the perfect location for camping and relaxation. Guests can escape the everyday and immerse themselves in nature, music, creative arts and wellness. With a welcoming and relaxed ethos, the campsite is perfect for all ages.

This year, Wild Canvas will feature an enhanced well-being offering, with free morning sessions (from yoga to pilates, site runs and bootcamps), a range of classes throughout the day, a treatment tent and a new riverside sauna to complete the outdoor experience in a brand new dedicated riverside spot.

There is a range of activities on offer, free and paid, from dance classes to a drop-in kids’ crafts club and the ever-popular superhero kids’ disco. Coached paddle-boarding lessons are also available and many bring their own kayaks and paddle boards to cruise down the River Great Ouse, across the length of the site to make it to the bar!

This is in addition to the, also new, Canvas Sociala giant tipi tent which will be used for kids activities, story-telling sessions, evening events like Saturday Supper Clubs and as a rain-free café.

Choose your accomodation

Guests can choose accommodation like traditional Tipis handmade in Glastonbury or modern Yurt-Tents, as well as having the option of pitching their own tents or camper vans on generously spaced grass pitches. Tipis and Yurt-tents sleep 4 people and come furnished with beds and bedding, complimentary outdoor fire pits and outdoor seating. 

Campers can expect campsite staples and more from the on-site café including hot breakfasts, BBQ options, wood fired pizzas, DE NADAS empanadas and fresh wholesome salads. Wild HQ, the authentic courtyard bar will be serving local beers and ales alongside signature cocktails.

While Wild Canvas’ groovy playlists set the tone throughout the week, the weekends will come alive with an all-star roster of live DJs who will keep the party going. Among the artists confirmed for 2024 are Patrick Forge, Abi Clark, Dom Servini and Kengo Oshima, with more names to follow.
