  • Dog-friendly site surrounded by countryside five miles from Winchester
  • A 15-minute drive to Mottisfont and 35 minutes from Stonehenge
  • Playground, games field and dog exercise area; firepit hire, logs sold
This is a peaceful campsite that welcomes families and dogs to its level and well-kept pitches, which are sheltered by mature trees and hedgerows. With facilities including hot showers and flushing toilets – plus a playground, games field, dog exercise field and footpath to a local country park – Folly Farm Caravan and Camping Park is a tiptop place to stay in the gorgeous Hampshire countryside. How to unwind here? Well, there are plenty of spots around the site to let your hair down (thanks to its peaceful and level grassy pitches, play areas, wifi, free showers and walks in the surrounding woodlands) but you’ll have your choice of many a day out from here too. Perhaps a venture into the South Downs National Park (10 minutes’ drive)? Into the vibrant city of Winchester (15 minutes) for its historic sites, such as the medieval cathedral, the ruins of Wolvesey Castle, the working 18th-century corn mill, Jane Austen’s house or the castle’s medieval round table, once sat at by King Arthur? From Winchester, there’s a short stroll along the water meadows of the river Itchen down to England’s oldest medieval almshouse and The Hospital of St Cross or the 25-minute ascent to St Catherine’s Hill for views of the city, a dramatic chalk hill and an Iron Age hillfort. As for ventures from the site, you might want to set your next target as one of three local pubs serving home-cooked food in the villages of Sparsholt, Littleton or Crawley (this one’s 25 minutes’ walk away).

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Good clean facilities. Decent room on the pitch. Well marked and fairly flat.

Disliked The access bollard is a little temperamental, do wait for the light to be green as it has a tendency to pop back up while the light is red!

Electric grass touring caravan pitch

Liked Lovely, well maintained & secure site. Nice pub within walking distance. Good hot showers.
Close to Winchester which is a lovely city to visit

Disliked A stool or seat in the showers to put things on & maybe a shower curtain in the ladies as the spray from shower makes the things hanging on the door a bit wet.
Quite a long walk to the toilet block & to empty toilet cassette.
Unable to get Wi-Fi but that wasn’t a problem as signal was good

Recommend to friends Visit again

Electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Clean, plenty of space and peaceful.

Disliked Owners / staff could have spoke on arrival rather than waiting until I was parked with kids and fire was burning nicely. I did not appreciate having a bite to eat but being met with staff doing rounds who only wanted to explain to me my van was the wrong way and I needed to move a fire that was lit. I was being safe, it just didn’t fit how immaculate they want everyone to position themselves.
Detail in 3 page emails after finishing work for the week, notice boards etc won’t ever get fully read, expect to welcome people and explain the rules if they are so strict. A simple greeting on arrival would have been welcome.

Electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Good size pitches, tidy site.

Disliked The facilities were impractical to use!
Lights in the toilets were on a motion sensor with a tight angle and short time. By the time you entered the toilet cubicle and sat down, the lights went off!!
Same in the dish-washing area.

The water for washing your dishes was “tepid” at best!!

The ladies showers had no screen at all, so all your belongings need to be in a plastic bag and hung on the door, or they will get wet! (Even at the far end of the cubicle)

Local attractions

Get keyed up on the local history… with hillforts, National Trust properties and historic steam railways around, there are many jaunts to take you way back. Closest to the site, there's Danebury Iron Age Hillfort (10 minutes’ drive), Mottisfont’s (15 minutes) historical priory, garden and country estate (15 minutes) or Winchester’s (15 minutes) cathedral, castle, markets and fairs. Perhaps the most iconic of the lot, Stonehenge (35 minutes) is a short trip away. Mid Hants Railway 'Watercress Line' (25 minutes) will take you on a ride along a 19th-century heritage steam train line, while the National Motor Museum (45 minutes) and the maritime museum at Buckler's Hard (55 minutes) are full to the brim with old artefacts. Once you’re done with country house tours – perhaps at Broadlands House (35 minutes) or the National Trust’s Georgian Hinton Ampner (25 minutes) – a festival might bring you firmly to the present again. The Boomtown Fair venue (20 minutes) and Carfest South venue (25 minutes) are both close by. But, how to finish off your stay? Maybe the 72-hectare arboretum at Sir Harold Hillier Gardens (20 minutes), the birds of prey experiences at the Hawk Conservancy Trust (25 minutes), Marwell Zoo (half an hour), Salisbury Cathedral (half an hour) or the kid-friendly Paultons Park, Home of Peppa Pig World (half an hour)?
