 Stayed for 5 nights in a tent with electric hook up and 2 dogs. Site well maintained and clean. Well kept pitches.
Road nearby but did not bother us at all.
Site has great potential with few little improvements and attention to detail would make a great place to camp.

This site is well positioned to visit a number of areas and would appeal mainly to families There is good play equipment and the children were enjoying themselves using it. The woodland dog walk is lovely - it could be made nicer if all the stray baler twine and bits of metal fencing were removed.
We went during a bank holiday weekend and it was very busy and noisy until late into the night. The pitches are not large and, for the amenities currently on offer, we felt it was very expensive. Showers are an additional cost on top of the £24 pitch fee.
The chemical toilet waste was a manhole and there weren't enough drinking water points. The portaloos were very smelly. -thankfully we didn't need to use them but could smell them when walking past.

Most of the reviews on here are old. If we had booked the site we thought we had, having read the reviews we wouldn't have been keen HOWEVER.
The site has been recently taken over on the new owners are working hard to put the love back into the place and be incredibly helpful.
The site itself is level, with good shelter from attractive trees (cue lots of lovely birdsong) and although a little dated, clean and appropriate facilities, with a great kitchen area for campers (tents).
The site is well positioned for Winchester and also for Farley mount country park. We were only there for the weekend but would definitely go again. This time booking on purpose!

We stayed at Folly Farm for 3 weeks, and had a very enjoyable stay. It was May bank holiday and the park was nearly full.
The park is under new ownership and the new owner is making improvements all the time. There are toilets, showers and a small kitchen for campers.
Close by there is a Waitrose, Aldi, Chinese Takeaway, & a chip shop.
It is just a lovely peaceful site.
We will be back.

This is a quiet, pretty campsite, perfect for chilling out and enjoying the outdoors. Our children loved playing on the newly installed wooden play equipment and we enjoyed relaxing on the picnic benches and listening to the birds.
The facilities were always clean and we found them perfectly adequate, although the new owners informed us they plan to upgrade them at the end of the summer. The grass was kept short and there are no farm animals or chickens here anymore, so no electric fencing to worry about.
There are two supermarkets within a five minute drive and a great pub in the very picturesque village of Crawley which is walkable (about a mile). A ten minute drive takes you into the centre of Winchester and there is a bus stop right outside the campsite if you need it.
We chose a pitch overlooking the meadow where we watched the swallows and house martins darting in and out of the grass. We had a wonderful stay and I would thoroughly recommend this site if you’re looking for a quiet, peaceful spot to relax and enjoy all that nature has to offer. We will be back again soon!

Ideally located to visit Winchetser and surrounding area. We stayed in the back field which has lovely views over surrounding country side.
Friendly owners, basic facilities, level pitches, would recommend.

Delightful field, surrounded by beautiful mature trees. Walking distance to an incredible pub in the stunning village of Crawley. Friendly owner who actually likes dogs. Excellent walking in the Stockbridge area which will keep us returning to this site often.
Young children seemed very happy climbing trees and playing in the wendy house, older kids would not be happy.
The entrance to the site is unpromising, first view is of the recycling bins, and true, the wash-house block is a bit sad looking but inside it's warm and the kitchen area has a microwave and frige freezer for campers use, alongside T towels and a plate of cookies which the farmers wife had made.
We were charmed by the place and we hope you'll like it too.

As per the previous review, all it would take is a little TLC to make this a really good site.
The facilities are a bit tired and could do with sprucing up. They smelt a little damp and uninviting, so as we were only there for a long weekend we made do with our own facilities in the caravan. The grass could have done with a cut, it was too long. The owner is lovely and even came round to ask if we needed a hot water bottle!
Be aware satnav users, ours sent us in the wrong direction completely, the entrance to the site is a bit obscure and could do with a sign opposite.
Having said all this, we had a lovely quiet weekend, the site has a homely feel and is quite relaxing. It is an excellent location for Winchester and the steam railway.

What to say about this site. Unloved. All it needs is a bit of tlc and a good clean. Then it would be a great little site.
The field is flat and well drained and this was essential with all the rain we have had this summer. It never felt boggy and the only mud was round the gate. This could be easily sorted.
The facilities are a separate toilet, a separate shower and a disabled shower room with toilet and hand basin. The only other basin was just by the door in. At a cost of 80p for 8mins for the showers, we found it plenty of time for us both to take a shower.
There are wall heaters in the shower rooms but they are a some kind of timer and came on at set times but never at a time when we wanted to shower. If you don't like spiders then you may have a problem as the shower block was full of old and new webs.
In the week we were there they were never cleaned properly but as we were the only ones on the site they never got that dirty. Wouldn't like to think what they would be like if the site was full.
In the kitchen there is a fridge and freezer, microwave, kettle and toaster all free to use. There are also utensils you can use but again they needed a good wash.
Mrs Pickup the owner was a lovely character and her hens which were allowed to roam free added a bit of comedy to the week but be warned don't feed them you can imagine why. The eggs are on sale at the farm.
There is a small village about 25mins walk with a beautiful old church and a pub which does food. We only called in the once the owners were friendly and had only just taken over. They have a plans for the pub and the menu and bar menu looked good. But there is no shop. Shops for provisions are a short drive away in Stockbridge or head towards Winchester
The other pub mentioned in previous reviews is now a private house.
The site is close to Winchester and Salisbury both historic and well worth a visit. We also went down to Portsmouth and there are some national trust properties in the area.
At £18 per night including EHU which we don't use it is about right for the area but I considered it on the pricey side compared with sites in other parts of the country.

Lovely place! My little boy was 12 months old when we went and he had great fun running around with the chickens. Everyone was lovely and the facilities where decent size. Glad they had a family room we could all use. Ground was nice and level easy to pitch up our soulpad bell tent and plenty of space for it and happy for you to help yourself to logs for our frontier stove. Nice and peaceful too. How we like it! 10/10
