  • Peaceful family-friendly farm site in Hampshire's Test Valley
  • Stonehenge, New Forest and Highclere Castle within 40 minutes' drive
  • Farm shop, café and two pubs within a five-minute drive
Fancy checking out some national treasures in the Test Valley? Then treat yourself to a stay at Rowbury Farm Camping, a fab spot in the Hampshire countryside with views towards Andover and the Iron Age hill fort of Danebury. Danebury is just one of the heritage sites and scenic spots close by: Stonehenge is half an hour's drive away, and the farm is in the middle of a cluster of national parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, including the New Forest and the North Wessex Downs. The site is made up of a quiet, simple and green 11-acre field, much of which is covered in wildflowers, with mown pitches scattered throughout. The friendly owners support recycling on site and ask that there's no loud music or parties so everyone, wildlife included, can relish the peace. There are large firepits around the site where guests can gather round the flames to sizzle sausages or even braise wild boar if that's your bag… For other food, it's a five-minute drive to a farm shop with attached café; there are two good pubs with food within a similar distance and it's a 10-minute drive to shops and supermarkets in Stockbridge.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Absolutely love this camp site and have been here several times. Love the nature of it and the views. The managers are always so friendly

Disliked I said last, year they need to have some more toilets and showers. Perhaps, if they put the same at the bottom of the field as they have at the top, would make it an even more attractive place to stay.

John I.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked I absolutely love the way the site is managed and maintained with wildlife very much in mind. Rowbury Farm Campsite is a shining example of how looking after and prioritising nature makes for happy campers and happy wildlife alike. It was a joy to hear and see so many farmland birds and the swathes of wildflowers throughout the site brought in so many butterflies and bees even when most of the flowers were past their best (we were there in July).
The pitches are really spacious and the facilities very clean. I like the fact that the friendly manager lives on site. The tea hut which opens on weekend mornings is a real bonus. The site is just off a quiet country lane and, as walkers, with a bit of planning we were able to access lovely countryside walks via nearby byways. We loved it!

An absolute gem.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked I liked everything. And I’m hard to please. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly. The site is beautiful, oceans of wild flowers, pitches cut into them so you feel surrounded by nature on all sides. Ablutions are basic but immaculate, well maintained and fitted with good showers , hot water in tap( pun intended). It’s a 1.3 mile stroll along a country lane to the village with two lovely pubs that do food. If you tell them you’re staying on site it’s 15% discount. It’s 15 minutes from the he’ll hole that is Andover but you could not feel further away from the rat race. One upside to being close to civilisation is access to Uber eats. They deliver to the site. I can’t praise this place enough and I have stayed all over the U.K. in my camper. I booked it as it was close to Andover as I was visiting relatives but having found it, I will be back. Highly recommended for solo travellers and any one else who loves a quiet sight , no WiFi but good 4G.

Liked The beautiful wildflower field - very natural. Very peaceful. Facilities were clean and well kept. The whole process was very easy to check in. The location was perfect, near a village shop, a pub and a picturesque river.

Disliked Couldn't find Wi-Fi information. Wasn't informed about checkout time before we arrived.

Robert H.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Everything, probably the most natural pitch arrangement carefully cut into a wild flower meadow, good spaces between pitches which meant my son and daughter with their families could meet up for our summer family gathering.
We were possibly a little late in being quiet as we were chatting and putting the world to rights, our bad...
We are used to wild camping, as such we are self sufficient so this site suited us and I trust we left nothing but footprints.

Local attractions

In terms of sights and activities there are some headline acts around here, but you can pass an easy half day or two without straying too far. Footpaths crisscross the local area (one leading to Danebury's Iron Age fort), and National Cycle Route 246 also passes right by: this is a spectacular stretch you can pedal all the way through the North Wessex Downs up into Berkshire. Similarly close by, splat each other with paintballs and shoot each other with lasers a two-minute drive away at the local activity centre, or zip through the treetops on wires and ropes at Treerunners (10 minutes). For a more sedate time, tour the vines and sip the wines at Cottonworth, five minutes away. It's a half-hour drive to Neolithic Stonehenge and a similar distance to Highclere Castle, in use in one form or another since the eighth century and most recently as the set for British TV hit Downton Abbey. The surrounding North Wessex Downs are fine walking country, just as the elegant stately home and gardens at Hinton Ampner (40 minutes) make a good intro to the South Downs. More top walks and wildlife spotting can be had as the National Nature Reserve of ancient Langley Wood (40 minutes away) merges with the New Forest. To see some of that wildlife close up, the Hawk Conservancy Trust is 15 minutes away, with feeding and flying displays from the resident raptors.
