  • Quiet Hampshire site with large grass pitches and easy road access
  • In the Test Valley, less than a mile from Stockbridge town centre
  • Wild-style camping on a low-key farm; firewood for sale on site
Time in the Test Valley is time well spent – this lovely pocket of Hampshire is well-known for its scenery, clear chalk streams and gentle pace of life, making it just the spot for a laidback camping break. Stockbridge View, a quiet site near the Test Valley market town of Stockbridge, is conveniently located just off the A30. This back to basics choice is within easy reach of Winchester (20 minutes' drive), Salisbury (25 minutes), Stonehenge (25 minutes) and Southampton (35 minutes). The pitches here are set over a flat and grassy area that's bordered by trees and hedgerows. You can pitch up wherever you like at this laidback farm spot, and all parts of the site are a few minutes’ walk from good basic amenities like a modern toilet and shower block and a chemical disposal point (please use green fluid). Campfires, barbecues and firepits are welcome here as long as they are lifted well off the grass. Handily, firewood is available to buy if you haven't brought your own fuel. Wood-fired pizzas, kebabs, pub food and a small supermarket are all available less than a mile away in Stockbridge town centre via a quiet bridleway. Please note that there's a clay pigeon shooting range half a mile away and therefore there may be some noise from that heard on site (mainly on Saturdays, but sometimes on other days).

Stephen H.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked Such a laidback campsite, we didn't have to check in just turn up pick a spot and get comfy. The site owner does a walk around and says hello and leaves you to it. Fire and Firepits well stocked and available, a Freezer on site for ice packs. The toilets/showers are really pleasant and kept very clean. overall its just a lovely campsite, its very relaxed and feels like a holiday, no BS about pitch size, amount of tents, group demographics or where you can go, if there's space you can camp there. Great site, been twice now, will happily go back again. And being such a short walk from Stockbridge is a bonus, multiple pub options, a curry house, a pizza restaurant, lovely cafe's, and loads of walks through the Test Valley.

Disliked Only thing I would change is the hand towel in the toilets, it seems a bit unhygienic although I am sure it is swapped out on the regular. Paper towels or a blow dryer would be preferred.

Karina G.

Unpowered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked I liked the camping site being very spacious, the washing room and toilet blocks very clean, being close to a cute little town, and also the fact that the check-in and check-out period is very long, unlike other campsites I've visited where check-in only happens in the middle of the afternoon and we have to check out in the morning (like in a hotel)

Disliked We had a setback at the entrance because there is a password lock on the gate and we did not receive any code via email or any instructions informing us of this, so we had to wait for the employee to assist us, which was done quickly, but I would have preferred this information to have been provided beforehand via email.

Great for a short term stay. Probably not the best for young kids.

Robert S.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Free roam to pitch where we liked. Easy to navigate in and out, everyone seemed very friendly.

Disliked The gate was a bit of a mare, we were told there was a code to get in, sent my mrs out who was stood in the rain trying to open the lock which didn't work.... it took a few minutes to realise that the lock wasn't in use and the gate could just be opened. The noise curfew wasn't adhered to by everyone, obviously this isn't the fault of the campsite but the campers.

There was a very loud alarm sounding for quite a long time which seemed to be coming from a neighbouring property.

The toilets although we're very good and of a higher standard on most sites could have been cleaned a little more frequently, my 3 year old was in and out quite a lot and from the start of the stay to leaving the condition of the toilets seemed to deteriorate, they could probably have done with a whip around a couple more times to keep on top of things, also the provided hand towel was not in a great condition, paper towels would have been much better.

Liked a lovely open site with good facilities a short walk from Stockbridge town centre and friendly helpful staff. plenty of hot water for showers and washing up, clean toilet block and washing up area. Perfect for couples and families wanting a few days out in the countryside. Loved that firepits were allowed.

Local attractions

For greenery and gardens, try Houghton Lodge (five minutes' drive), a small-scale spot dating back to the late 18th century in a gorgeous riverside location. The grounds at Mottisfont (15 minutes), a National Trust-managed house and garden, may be a bit grander in scale, but they're in a relaxed country location and aren't too big for a day out with young kids. This part of the world has lots of military connections, so how about a trip to the Army Flying Museum (10 minutes), or to Winchester (20 minutes) and its regimental collections in Peninsula Square? Inspired to try a bit of target practice yourself? The Spitfire Shoot (five minutes) can sort you with clay pigeon sessions (mostly on Saturdays, but sometimes at other times too). A little bit further away there are world-class attractions like Stonehenge (25 minutes), a must-see when visiting this part of the world, as well as family-focused options like Paultons Park (30 minutes), a theme park, and the interactive exhibits at Milestones Museum in Basingstoke (30 minutes).
