Gostou: Fantastic staff and owner, so helpful!
I had booked to stay 2 nights but hadn't planned for the extra cold nights and it was too uncomfortable for us. The staff/owner was so considerate, asked if there's was anything they could do to help. They also helped make a temporary fix to our equipment. They had pitched us under a shady tree to help with the hot daytime sun too. Above and beyond!
The site was brilliant for my 3 and 6 year olds, the play park is well built with plenty of activities. There's even a ball game field near the entrance, that's safe, spacious and includes balls and rackets to use.
The toilet, shower, washing up block was always clean, the hot water is quite slow but it's a good reminder to slow down and take in the beautiful birdsong - which is everywhere there!
We hired a fire pit which was worth the extra. Very sturdy and easy to pick up, empty and return.
Secure entrance makes the whole site feel safe too. I wasn't sure about staying so close to a fairly main road but the surrounding fields make it feel like you're further away and we were rarely bothered by any noise.
Definitely recommend and look forward to more visits.

Gostou: the playground was fantastic for my 9 year old. He loved it. The toilet blocks was clean and tidy

Não gostou: The toilets were a long way away from the tent pitches.

Do gerente: Thank you for your lovely review. The toilets are a bit further from the non-electric pitches than the electric pitches. As we're a dark sky site we try and keep artificial light to a minimum on the campsite so campers can enjoy the amazing starlight skies. We're pleased you found everything clean and tidy and your 9 year old enjoyed the playground. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Gostou: Lovely site, well maintained, secure and good facilities.

Não gostou: WiFi wouldn’t connect, password given didn’t work but didn’t really matter so didn’t bother bringing it up.

Gostou: The playground was great and the kids were very content there for most of the holiday and it was good to get the campfire out and toast marshmallows aswell. We booked early check-in and late checkout. However when we arrived someone was on our pitch bit the manager rectified the issue within minutes with no fuss.

Não gostou: No site shop but we weren't expecting one so came fully stocked.

Do gerente: Thank you for your lovely review. I'm sorry there was someone on your pitch when you arrived but glad we were able to rectify this within minutes for you. We don't currently have a shop onsite but there is a Co-op, Aldi and Waitrose close by which we include details of in our welcome email. We're really pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Gostou: Folly Farm is a wonderful open space that feels very calm and safe for children to enjoy and play. The play area where we were pitched by, allowed our child to entertain himself and to make new friends with other children which was lovely. The facilities were clean and not too far away to walk, and the ground was smooth and rock free allowing us to pitch up easily. The location is great with Winchester only a short drive away, lovely woodland walks to explore and beautiful Stockbridge nearby too. We would definitely come back.

Não gostou: Both ladies bathrooms were locked one morning leaving us with a rather shabby, dirty storage container converted into a make-shift bathroom to use temporarily which wasn't a great experience. Would have been better to lock one side of the loos for cleaning allowing the other side to still be used maybe. Also being near an army base we occasionally had loud helicopters and a chinnock flying over the campsite which concerned our child a bit, but it was only on the odd occasion and didn't spoil our stay here.

Do gerente: Thank you for your lovely review, we're really pleased you enjoyed your stay and will be returning. The ladies showers and toilets are open until 11am weekdays and 12pm on weekends then closed for cleaning for an hour. Whilst they are being cleaned a small toilet block is opened to ensure everyone can use the loo if required. This little toilet block is about to be refurbished so hopefully it will be more to your liking on your next visit. I'm sorry to hear your son was concerned when a Chinook flew over. This doesn't happen very often and is usually a highlight for our guests. It comes from the nearest army base which is 30 miles away in Odiham, near Basingstoke, which is quite a distance away. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Gostou: Well kept grounds, facilities were checked regularly and staff were very friendly, coming and checking each individual pitch were ok twice a day. There were plenty of washing up facilities including indoor and outdoor sinks. The pitches were pretty level.

Não gostou: Pitches were very close together, this did seem to foster a friendly atmosphere between campers but still too close for comfort for my liking. The showers were clean and well looked after but were quite dated.

Do gerente: Thank you for your review, we're really pleased you found the staff friendly and the site and facilities well kept and clean. We have a brand new modern women's shower block opening in June which will include wet rooms. The pitches are a standard size and large enough for a caravan, awning and vehicle, and as you mentioned there is a lovely friendly atmosphere between campers onsite which we feel our layout encourages. Thank you for recommending us to friends and we hope you will visit us again soon.
