Why stay here ...

Waterwells Farm CL is conveniently situated on the edge of Colden Common Village which is surrounded by the Hampshire Countryside.

Our grass pitches are situated in a flat 0.5 acre paddock, having 10 amp electric hook-ups, with views over the open countryside. There are also some hardstanding in the paddock for use during wet weather, which has electric hook-ups.

There are several footpaths around the Colden Common area for short or longer walks, including one of approximately 5 miles to Winchester along the River Itchen.

Public houses in the village all serve a good variety of food, and a local Co-op next to the community centre has papers and groceries, all are within walking distance from the CL.

There is a bus stop for the Winchester bus on Church Lane about 100 metres from the CL. There is also a bus to Eastleigh which can be caught further along the lane.

The historic cities of Portsmouth, Southampton and Winchester are all easily accessible by road, and have Park and Ride facilities for visitors (Portsmouth & Winchester can take Motorhomes). If you are travelling to the Isle of Wight, the ferry terminal at Southampton is about 30 minutes away. Or if you are travelling to Europe, the ferry teminal at Portsmouth is about 45 minutes away.

Colden Common is close to the South Downs National Park and just a short drive from the New Forest National Park with their many attractions.

Nice CL

Waterwells Farm
Warm welcome and very easy access. It was very wet but we parked on a nice flat hard standing overlooking the horse field. The owner was very accommodating as we booked lastFacilities extremely clean and well organised. Gate locked overnight. Some road noise and occasional aircraft but didn't bother us. Local Co-op in walking distance. We only stayed one night so didn't check out pub or takeaway. Very reasonably priced. We will return.

Lovely stay on way home from Devon and Cornwall.

Waterwells Farm
Stayed for 3 nights on our return from touring Devon and Cornwall as really convenient stopping point on our journey back to Essex as so close to the motorway. The CL is accessed from the main road with lots of houses and it looks like you are just driving into someones drive, but when you drive in you come out into a lovely big field overlooking fields with its own pony. Large pitches divided by posts so easy to drive in and position your caravan and awning. NB site gate is locked at night (10pm) so do let the owner know if you are leaving or arriving early/late. Cycled down to the Miller and Carter (5mins) on our first night, where we had a lovely cider overlooking the lake watching the swans and ducks. Visited Montifont (NT) and cycled through the forest to Toby carvery (unfortunately no walk-ins anymore, so you need to book) and we ended up with a Meal deal from Tesco Express.

we received a very warm welcome from the owners who immediately showed us where everything was and made sure that we were comfortable

Waterwells Farm
We had a very enjoyable 4 nights at this site, Barry and his wife gave us a very warm welcome and made sure we knew were everything was, the bus stop is a few yards away from the entrance to the site for a bus into Winchester or Eastleigh. the view is over open fields and the site is very quiet and extremely clean it is half a mile to the shops and pub.

The perfect CL

Waterwells Farm
From our arrival till we left two days later our weekend was peaceful and most enjoyable. Each of the five grass pitches was clearly marked with generous space in each one. Water and all facililities were clearly marked and Covid rules clearly shown. Mr and Mrs Ansell were most friendly and welcoming and the views were lovely. Hardstanding pitches are available in inclement weather. A good location with a bus stop 100 yards from the CL on a main route from Winchester to Fareman. Conveniently situated for interesting locations within easy reach. We will certainly return to this location again.
