Suddene Park Farm

Suddene Park’s peaceful camping fields are just the spot for a taster of rural Wiltshire life. With glorious views across open countryside and horses grazing in the surrounding fields, you can wander bridle paths to explore the farm, or venture out to industrial landmarks like Crofton Beam Engines and Wilton Windmill.

Bring your well-behaved dogs (but please keep them under full control around livestock on the farm) or come alone – either way, there are plenty of walking routes challenging and gentle nearby. You can meander Savernake Forest footpaths, potter along the Kennet and Avon Canal, or clamber up to the 1930s White Horse in the Vale of Pewsey. And of course, Wiltshire is full of prehistoric settlements: Stonehenge and its smart new visitor centre, Avebury, Silbury Hill and several long barrows are all within a 40-minute drive.

Traditional thatched pubs in the sleepy villages of Wilton and Great Bedwyn are known for their superb food, and the historic town of Marlborough has restaurants aplenty and posh shops, as well as supermarkets for picking up bits and bobs (all are less than 20 minutes away by car).

Back on site, a round up of simple facilities includes running water, electric hook-ups and disposal points for waste water and refuse.
