About the site
Only two hours from London and easily accessible from the A303, the site offers a rural base within easy reach of top attractions. For tents and trailer tents, there are 10m x 9m grass pitches, plus 7m x 7m hardstanding pitches for caravans and motorhomes. All pitches allow up to six guests, each with a 16 amp electric hook up. If you prefer glamping, the hut can accommodate four guests with two singles and a high king-size bed with bedding supplied. There is a lovely mini kitchen set up and Belfast sink, just a short walk to the shower block and with your own private garden area, fire pit and not forgetting the log fuelled hot tub! The yurt sleeps six and has its own caravan kitchen, fire pit, log burner inside and beds/bedding. The site also has enough chickens/ducks around to provide folks with fresh eggs, and in the covered area by the bar, there is an honesty shop with a few local things to buy including logs, honey, eggs and a little local art. The old wheel rims can be used for fire pits around the site to help guests enjoy the view with some marshmallows toasting. The owners have collected goats, sheep, lambs, ponies/horses, and even pet cows who all have their individual stories and characters, and even postcards and poems! The Jolly Farmer is a pop up bar that is open Friday and Saturday, and the cafe is open Saturday and Sunday from the 4th of April for the season, with a fantastic mini festival Sunnyhills Big Weekender in the summer too. Dogs are welcome with usual rules applying. There is a footpath across fields from the site as well as lots of lovely track and field walks around woods and rural farmland around the local area, generally a peaceful site to take a deep breath from the outside world.
Sunnyhill Park Campsite is open all year round.

Nice place though we had some confusion about the pitch boundaries. We drastically over reached into an adjoining pitch. We shifted our awning the next morning. It was a very quiet place and I enjoyed 6 days of local cycling during the first week of November. Just off the A303, an easy find! Thanks.
