Why stay here ...
Hookpit Farm is 3 miles north of Winchester, positioned on rising ground with panoramic views as far reaching as the Isle of Wight. The newly built campsite is situated alongside the working farm, taking advantage of the magnificent views and is sheltered from the north wind. The site has newly built facilities including water and 16amp hook ups as well as a discrete Elsan point. The site is accessed via a private road, greeted with a coded gate, to make moving in and out more convenient and private.
The fields surrouding the campsite are situated on the rolling Hampshire Downs and follow an arable rotation of Malting Barley, Wheat, Oilseed Rape and Forage Maze. A short walk away from the Caravan Site there are many footpaths and walks through the farm itself. The local area has many attractions and provides convenient access to Winchester, Portsmouth, Salisbury and the New Forest, as well as being an ideal stop over before crossing the channel.
Within half a mile of the campsite, the village of Kings Worthy offers a number of convenience stores including Tesco Express (with ATM), a chemist and a post office. There is also a local farm shop; which serves excellent coffee and light lunches. To that end, there are also a number of local pubs which serve award winning food. Outside Kings Worthy, trains from Winchester to London or the South Coast are frequent and there is also a local leisure railway, The Watercress Line, 9 miles away in Alresford. With its proximity to Winchester, the site is ideally located close to the M3, A34 and A33, making it the ideal location for a base in which to explore all that Hampshire has to offer.

Excellent site
Excellent site with 360 deg countryside views. We liked the simple prepayment system and the security of the gate code. Water close to pitches is a nice touch too. Obviously good draining as perfectly useabke even after the heavy rains of April and May!
Lovely site with beautiful views
We loved this site, spent 2 nights on our way down to Weymouth. Well worth the stop over. Peacefull and tranquil entry code and online payment, so easy. Would definitely return maybe for longer next time. Easy journey to Winchester and all that it has.
Great site
If you are looking for peace and quite this is the site for you. Beautiful views and kestrels about all day. Distant trains but definitely don’t disturb you.
Sloping but don’t need blocks and nice short grass which drains very well.
Wander down the dead end lane and a nice circular walk or cycle ride through forest and disused rail lines.
Water and waste good, gateway nice and wide and secure with code lock.
We will be returning.

Convenient and Quiet
Very easy to access. Clean grassy surface. Described as having sloping pitches but the slope is only about 5cm side to side. Hilltop location with distant views but exposed to wind. The newly planted hedges will help when mature.
Almost no traffic past the gate (dead end). Nearby railway is audible but not intrusive.
King Charles pub (half a mile) serves excellent food and beer and from there you can catch frequent buses to Winchester.
We look forward to a return visit.
