Weekend Trip to Riverside Restful Relaxing Campsite

We really enjoyed our stay. Andy was very friendly and helpful, even to the point of rescuing us when our car broke down! Lovely riverside pitch where we saw lots of birds, including a kingfisher and a heron. Very peaceful, would definitely stay again.

1 night at Bredon-Vale Caravan and Camping

Just what I needed! A peaceful retreat with a wonderful view. The caravan was beautifully presented with everything I needed to be cosy for the night and cool for the day. Thank you for making me feel welcome

1 night at Old Litten

Fantastic spot. Great scenery, lovely walking tracks and all felt very private. Charlotte was very lovely and helpful when we arrived to show us around the site and all the useful bits in the shed.

4 nights at Woodlands Camping

Amazingly relaxing break. Lovely site with wonderful walks through the woods and across the nearby fields. Very peaceful and quiet site. The night sky was mesmerising. Compost toilets were clean, though a little cramped. Two portable toilet pods arrived on the second day and we're much appreciated. Cold water washing up facilities were very handy. Host was very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend the site for a relaxing get away.

Weekend Trip to Old Litten

Fantastic place to camp; secluded and very beautiful. We hope to be back soon!

Weekend Trip to The Barn KT9

Thank you Charlie for a lovely stay. The plot was very well located, and amenities excellent. We enjoyed a lovely walk and coffee before heading home. There is a pub nearby, which was walkable and good. The only thing we weren’t so keen on was the sound from the clay pigeon shooting next door in the morning! But would definitely come back!

1 night at Alciston Court Farm

I didn't stay into the main field but in one right at the foothills of the South Downs Way accessible by a gravel road. The directions on hipcamp weren't the best but Miles kindly came out and met me. I wish it was possible to add a photo to the review as the views were really stunning. Ideal if your set up for wild camping with a rooftop tent.

Weekend Trip to Old Litten

We had an absolutely fantastic back to basics stay, which is exactly what we were looking for! Absolute Perfection! We have already booked to come back!

2 nights at Old Litten

Amazing view, fantastic host. I will be definitely returning when the weather is better. Plenty of walks and pub within 15mins walk.

Weekend Trip to The Hop Farm

Lovely site can't wait to return. Staff very friendly and helpful. Site has good facilities.

Weekend Trip to Old Litten

We had a fantastic stay at this campsite in Petersfield, despite arriving much later than planned due to an accident on the way. John was incredibly helpful and patient, welcoming us with a smile even though it was late, raining, and very muddy! The location is great, with lovely views, and Charlotte and John have thoughtfully provided everything you might need for a comfortable stay. Even in wet weather, it was a great spot—peaceful and well set up. We’re looking forward to coming back when the sun is shining!

Weekend Trip to Cattlestone Farm Adult Only

The farm was very easy to get to, and Donna and her husband were extremely communicative and welcoming. The cabin itself was an utter delight and more than I would've expected, both in terms of amenities available, and the quality therein. Very easy to both cook on site and enjoy the farm itself, and to head out into the countryside. Plus the cows were such a special treat to see!

Weekend Trip to Spring Hill Wild Camping

Great, basic camping within 10min walk of a pub, and open in winter. No showers, but compost loos. No running water in January as it is powered by solar, but luckily we brought some water. Firewood was supplied for £5 a bucket, and the pitches are equipped with fire pits. Alpacas are very cute!

Weekend Trip to Old Litten

Lovely wild camping spot, nice view and completely remote. Charlotte is an absolute Diamond and couldn’t be more helpful, we had a great stay and will definitely stay again. A couple of pubs are not too far away and do nice food and beer for those not completely roughing it.

Weekend Trip to Old Litten

Charlotte was a great host and so helpful! She made sure we had everything we needed and then left us to it. The area was beautiful with amazing views. Highly recommend!!

1 night at Old Litten

I loved tent camping on Charlotte land, so quiet and beautiful views. The ponies are friendly and I really appreciated the firewood and fire pit. Being the only person there was the closest to wild camping as I could be without wild camping! I’d definitely go back when the days are longer and I could enjoy the land and views even more. Thanks so much for showing me round and making me feel at home 🙏

Weekend Trip to Old Litten

Beautiful place and you are alone. The view is spectacular and the chopped firewood is free.

1 night at Spring Hill Wild Camping

Unfortunately I haven't seen the host but the place is beautiful. Be careful the last few meters are hard to make with a 2 weel drive. Spectacular place with toilets and camping accomodation like tables and benches. I would certainly recommend it to any campers.

Campsites near Henley-on-Thames guide

Overview

Nestled along the River Thames, Henley-on-Thames is a gateway to some of England’s most iconic landscapes. Venture out on River Thames in a boat rental, visit the River and Rowing Museum, and then set up at cedar glamping cabins in town that overlook a nearby lake. Just beyond the town’s borders, Chilterns AONB offers a trip into nature with wooded valleys, ancient trails, and riverside campsites for tents and caravans. To the southeast, Windsor Great Park sprawls across avenues and boasts a royal legacy. Stay near the king and queen at pet-friendly campsites in the area. Farther west, the Cotswolds offer quintessential English villages, drystone walls, and rolling countryside. Then stay in a glamping pod or luxury lodge to enjoy the area in comfort and style.

Where to go

Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Dive into a haven of biodiversity and serenity in the Chiltern Hills. Cycle Chilterns Cycleway or wander walking paths through beech woodlands and ancient pathways to experience this AONB’s panoramic views of its rare landscape made up of dramatic chalk escarpment. Nature enthusiasts can also look forward to spotting red kites circling overhead as well as rare species like the glow-worm. For a hike into the past, explore Ridgeway—an ancient track that snakes through the Chilterns. Nearby riverside campsites on the Thames cater to tents and caravans, boasting amenities such as electrical hookups, sanitary facilities, and wifi access as well as caravan holiday home rentals.

Windsor Great Park

From scenic drives to leisurely strolls in villages like Bourton-on-the-Water and Stow-on-the-Wold, the Cotswolds offers a unique English countryside experience. The area is dotted with campsites that merge seamlessly into the landscape, offering facilities like tent and caravan pitches, fresh water supplies, and waste disposal points. Campers can also stay in a unique glamping accommodation like a lodge at Cotswold Farm Park with a wood-fired hot tub or a dog-friendly glamping pod in Moreton.
