The crunch of gravel beneath your feet and the gentle rustle of mature trees set the tone as you arrive at this traditional Wiltshire camping ground, where the gracious architecture of a former vicarage overlooks peaceful pitches. Morning light filters through established gardens, bringing with it the quiet charm of the English countryside.

This straightforward site welcomes tents, campervans and caravans to the rolling chalk downlands of Wiltshire, where ancient landscapes and historic market towns define the South West's more pastoral character. It's ideal for those seeking an uncomplicated base to explore Salisbury Plain, Stonehenge and the timeless villages that dot this agricultural heartland, without needing extensive onsite entertainment.

Facilities are kept simple with toilets and showers provided, allowing the setting itself to take centre stage. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so confirm arrangements when you book. The atmosphere here is unpretentious and tranquil—a place where the old vicarage walls and surrounding grounds create a sense of stepping back to a gentler pace of life.

Macmillan Way

Stretches 290km from Rutland to Abbotsbury on the Dorset coast, crossing gently rolling Cotswold limestone escarpments with some moderate climbs through market towns and river valleys. Too long for a single outing—most tackle sections as day walks. Not suitable for buggies due to stiles, gates and uneven field paths. Dogs welcome but must be under close control near livestock. Offers excellent variety: medieval villages, chalk downland, ancient woodlands and gorgeous Cotswold stone architecture,
