Weekend Trip to Park Farm Campsite

Absolute gem of a place. Zoe was so welcoming and sorted me out with some wood for the fire pit as well. Clean facilities and beautiful views. Felt very safe as a solo camper. Will definitely be back!

Our first family camping experience and I can't think of anything I would change! Beautiful quiet site (apart from the sound of our children and their new friends playing on the old go karts and in the sandpit!). Lovely clean shower and loo block with washing up facilities. Fire pits are available and they sell wood for £10 a bag. Gorgeous spot for watching the moon and sunrise. Will definitely be back! ☺️🌅

Weekend Trip to Park Farm Campsite

We had a really good stay at Park Farm Campsite for one night in our roof tent. The site was clean and well-kept, with all the facilities (toilets, showers, etc.) in excellent condition. The views were lovely, especially from the far side of the site where we were parked. One tip for roof tent campers: it’s a good idea to bring levelling blocks if you’re setting up on the far end of the field, as the site does slope down. Overall, a great spot for a peaceful night with everything you need. We’d happily return!

Fantastic site. Great field with mowed walkways and pitches amongst longer meadow. Really good eco facilities and Zoe couldn’t have been more helpful and lovely. Thank you!

Tent pitches are mown into our beautiful camping meadow.

Great little site with only a few pitches so you can really enjoy some peace and the beauty of the local area! The pizza oven and individual fire pits were a great bonus. Fantastic host who was super responsive and helpful.

2 nights at Marshwood Farm Camping

The camp site was great. Only 6 large pitches, three fixed bell tents and shepherd huts may this a very peaceful and relaxing stay. The parking was well sign posted. The utility hut had a well stocked communal kitchen, solar heated showers and an honesty shop. My two sons loved the space to play and football goal and ball provided. Plus the ice creams in the shop ! Also seeing the sheep being moved by the sheep dog.

Our second stay at Marshwood was just as good as the first! We really enjoyed the play area which wasn’t here last time, the kids enjoy the freedom of being able to play. The facilities are excellent and very clean, the shop well stocked and the campsite quiet and peaceful.

Weekend Trip to Romantic Country Glamping

Fantastic shepherd's hut. The location was reachable by public transport and walking (train to Trowbridge, X34 bus to Southwick Post Office, 15 min walk) so car isn't essential. The indoor heater made a huge difference, and the provided cake, bread, eggs, jam etc. were amazing and very generous. In reach of some good walks too. Would definitely plan to come here again, really loved it.
