  • Small countryside site overlooking 27 acres of National Trust land
  • A 20-minute drive from Stonehenge and 25 minutes from Salisbury
  • Two pubs within walking distance and barbecues permitted on site
Track down Stonehenge and Salisbury or leap over the country stile onto the 27 acres of National Trust land alongside Honeysuckle Homestead… this remote countryside site is well equipped for a Wiltshire break and pretty splendid location-wise. The location is within the Cranborne Chase National Landscape, and Wiltshire’s your oyster, really: the iconic Stonehenge stone circle is 20 minutes’ drive away and Salisbury Cathedral about 25 minutes. If country pubs are your first calling, there are two of those nearby too (at a 20-minute or a 45-minute walk respectively). Well-fed and watered, you might be itching to get out on one of the many scenic walks in the surrounding countryside. One top pick is the Dinton Park Trail in the National Trust land that the site overlooks. You’ll pass by orchards, farmland, parkland, woodland and a Neo-Grecian house, as well as follow part of the Monarch’s Way. This 625-mile trail was King Charles II’s escape route after he was defeated in the Civil Wars, although you’ll be able to take it on at a much more leisurely pace. Honeysuckle Homestead has a sweet set up all around. It’s well equipped with heated toilets and showers, wifi over the site and a washing-up area (just in case you fancy taking advantage of the fact that barbecues are allowed). There’s a shop in Fovant village, 45 minutes’ walk away, for all your basic bits and pieces.

What customers say

This charming, peaceful site offers beautiful rural walks near National Trust parkland. Facilities are generally clean, with some underfloor heating. The owner is very welcoming. Occasional train noise and minor tidying needed.

Liked The showers were exceptional, great for a pit stop.

Disliked Very small space so felt we were on top of the people around us. The trains are so loud they vibrate everything, they do not run through the night but start early morning.

Liked Really friendly welcome, recognised us from previous years, as we come here each year the night before going to End of The Road festival which isn’t far away. It’s a great little stop for us before heading to the festival, and we make use of the lovely large shower facility in the morning. Able to choose our own spot, and left to then enjoy the peaceful countryside around us. With no light pollution, the clear sky at night is amazing with all the stars visible. The onsite cat is so friendly and a lovely little bonus. Will be coming again next year!

Local attractions

So you’ve visited medieval Salisbury (25 minutes’ drive), gazed at the Magna Carta in Salisbury Cathedral and (hopefully) defeated an escape room, but what about Old Sarum (25 minutes)? The ruins are where Salisbury’s first settlers lived and nowadays, visitors can climb up the ramparts, see where the original cathedral once stood and admire the Iron Age hillfort too. Wilton (10 minutes) was the ancient capital of Wessex and well worth a stop for walks along the Wylye river, the markets and Wilton House (15 minutes). Historical sites don’t end just there, though, as further out, there are the 14th-century ruins of Old Wardour Castle (20 minutes) and grand Kingston Lacy (40 minutes), where there are Japanese gardens, play areas, art and antiquities and garden tours. If it’s a safari day you’re after, that’s not as unthinkable as you’d expect in the Wiltshire countryside, because Longleat (half an hour) has a self-driving safari park with a lion and monkey enclosure. You’re more likely to see New Forest ponies roaming around New Forest National Park (40 minutes). Canoeing, cycling, hiking, hiking – all sorts, really – can be tracked down here, but if it’s the coast you’re really after, Bournemouth (55 minutes), Poole (55 minutes) and Lymington (an hour and 10 minutes) are further on.
