Bank holiday

Trailer Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2025

Bit noisy. People walking past shining light into tent. One way in and out caused chaos. Having to keep turning around to get in and out of our field was annoying. Wi-Fi issues. Overall, it's ok.

Site's response

We're a very popular campsite and the August Bank Holiday is our busiest weekend of the year. The campsite has a different vibe over the bank holiday weekend and can be a bit noisier due to the number of guests onsite. We are a dark sky site, which means we do not have artificial lighting on the campsite, so that guests can enjoy the amazing starlit skies, therefore torches are required. The site has a secure ANPR entry system which was fully operational with no problems reported, possibly it just felt busy due to the site being full.

Well run campsite

Things to do on site and in the Winchester area

Keen to stretch your legs? The rolling hills and patchwork fields of the Downs are just superb for walking, cycling, bird-watching, nature spotting and more. As all good work deserves a reward, refuel with a slap up meal at two local pubs serving delicious home cooked food, which can be found in Littleton (5 minutes) and Sparsholt (10 minutes).

You can also bring your pooch on a tempting local walk to the fantastic Farley Mount Country Park, a ten minute drive away.

Take a nostalgic ride on the puffing Watercress Railway (25 minutes) or travel back in time with a host of historic National Trust properties.

From Mottisfont Abbey (20 minutes) to Hinton Ampner (25 minutes) and the gorgeous Hillier Gardens (20 minutes), have a mosey around and then a treat in the Trust's tea room. Hampshire, 20 minutes away, has some of the quaintest rural towns and many boutique shops for you to uncover, too.

If you're feeling crafty, spend a lovely afternoon making pieces from clay at Poppies Crafts (20 minutes). Or, if the kids need to let off some steam, they'll go wild for Paultons Park, with all the characters of Peppa Pig World and a host of incredible rides, just 30 minutes from the site.
