Walkeridge Farm

Why stay here ...

Walkeridge Farm, run by husband and wife Joe and Gemma, is a 72-acre smallholding situated in the stunning North Wessex Downs AONB, with breathtaking views of Watership Down. We offer a peaceful, enclosed 1-acre site for up to five members, each with individual electric hook-ups, waste facilities, and an on-site toilet.

Now Available – Our Luxury Shepherd’s Hut! From May, we are excited to introduce our beautifully crafted self-catering Shepherd’s Hut, offering a luxurious countryside retreat. With a king-size bed, modern kitchen, stylish bathroom, and private, enclosed, outdoor space with a hot tub and fire pit.

A Perfect Base for Exploring

Our site sits beside the Wayfarer’s Walk, a 71-mile trail connecting the highest downland in southern England to the coastal mudflats. Just a short 20-minute walk away, you’ll find The Vine, Hannington, a traditional country pub serving home-cooked food, fine wine, and real ale.

Wildlife & Tranquility
