I suspect that if you granted temporary rights to persons of 18 years age +  and stated that they were liable for damages, losses, injury etc.. whilst remaining on your land under their own cognisance you would be reasonably well protected. However- If you take money for services you are liable under the contract to provide such services in a safe manner. You could allow people to camp for free but charge them for water and disposal of waste. Get it in writing! Hello Eric,

With me on my walks was also my dog. I always ensure I'm away from buildings and from the path and I try to pitch in undergrowth. Wild camping for me is a way to be able to stay near my route without detouring to campsites inland. But I do use public campsites if they are convenient (enroute) I have walked the south west coast path the last two years and wild camped in various spots with no bother from anyone but each morning before departing I’veade sure the area was as I had found it apart from a small patch of flattened grass.
