Pitches with countryside views at a livery centre in rural Wiltshire

A rural idyll awaits self-sufficient campers at Suddene Park Farm. This country campsite on a 550-acre livery centre offers back-to-basics pitches complemented by a warm welcome and lovely views. In the foreground, you’ll see horses grazing in the surrounding paddocks and then it’s green fields and trees all the way to Wilton Windmill, the only working mill in Wessex. This is the Vale of Pewsey in Wiltshire on the edge of Salisbury Plain, where the days out include heritage sites, henges, and hills.

The first thing to note is that there’s no toilet (or shower) here so it’s only suitable for those who have their own. If you don’t have your own loo, you'll have to choose a different site. If you do – lucky you. This place offers just a handful of pitches for people like you. It's mostly campervans and motorhomes, naturally, but those with tents are welcome too. There’s electricity, water and a waste water disposal site but that’s all by way of facilities. Apart from that it’s just a field with a view of the vale. Sit in it for any length of time and you’re likely to encounter some of the rich wildlife that lives here: red kites soaring overhead in the daytime; owls twit-twooing at night.

Friendly owner, Sarah, will welcome you to the site, introduce you to her friendly cockerpoo, Rambo, and, if you’re interested, take you to meet some of the horses stabled here. She has a wealth of knowledge on the local area if you’re in search of tips. She can point you towards the Kennet and Avon Canal, which provides a great place to walk the dog (yours, not Rambo). It’s also a lovely route to some local pubs and a picturesque way to two of the most local sights. There’s that working windmill at Wilton and Crofton Beam Engines, a heritage steam-powered pumping station, now open as a museum. Further afield the historic sites get older and grander and an English Heritage card proves its worth. There’s Silbury Hill and Avebury Henge nearby, with Stonehenge a 40-minute drive away.

From the host
A peaceful and rural farm site on the edge of the Vale of Pewsey. 20 minutes’ drive to Marlborough and 40 minutes to Stonehenge. We are a dog-friendly site with plenty of bridle paths and footpaths for walks. There is also the opportunity to meet the horses on the farm.
Nearby attractions

The campsite is in the Vale of Pewsey, part of the North Wessex Downs. You can walk from Suddene Park Farm to the Kennet and Avon Canal and follow the towpath to Crofton Beam Engines, a mile-and-a-half away (or drive there in five minutes), to see a steam engine in motion and learn about the history of this pumping station. The towpath also provides a route to the village of Wilton and its windmill, lake and pub. You can take a tour of the mill and there’s a café and a shop too. There are lots of lovely villages to explore in the area, with woodland walks at Savernake Forest and the market town of Marlborough six miles away. Avebury with its three stone circles (Avebury Henge) and Silbury Hill are a little further in the same direction (12 miles) and Stonehenge is 20 miles in the other direction.

Food and drink

The closest shop is the well-stocked grocery store at the garage and the closest pub is The White Hart at Burbage, both just a mile away. For a meal out, The Swan at Wilton (two miles on foot, three by car) and The Three Tuns at Great Bedwyn (three miles) make for pleasant destinations at the end of longer walks. Marlborough has plenty of further options for eating out and shops and supermarkets for stocking up at if you want more supplies for the campsite.
