Bel endroit au sommet de la colline White Sheet. Il y a un parking au bas de la colline, mais cela vaut la peine de se rendre à cet endroit pour la vue. Au sommet, la piste de gravier est très large et il y a beaucoup d'espace pour se garer de chaque côté. Endroit populaire pour les promeneurs de chiens et les modèles réduits d'avions volant pendant la journée, mais complètement calme la nuit. Nous avons passé deux nuits sans problème.

Beautiful spot at the top of White Sheet hill. There’s a car park at the bottom of the hill, but it’s well worth heading up to this spot for the views. At the top the gravel track is very wide and there’s plenty of space to park on either side. Popular spot for dog walkers and model aeroplane flying during the day, but completely quiet at night. We spent two nights without a problem.

Schöner Ort an der Spitze des White Sheet Hill. Es gibt einen Parkplatz am Fuße des Hügels, aber es lohnt sich, zu diesem Ort zu fahren, um die Aussicht zu genießen. Oben ist die Schotterpiste sehr breit und auf beiden Seiten gibt es viel Platz zum Parken. Tagsüber beliebter Ort für Hundespaziergänger und Modellflieger, nachts aber absolut ruhig. Wir haben zwei Nächte ohne Probleme verbracht.

Bonito lugar en la cima de la colina White Sheet. Hay estacionamiento al pie de la colina, pero vale la pena conducir hasta este lugar por la vista. En la parte superior, la pista de grava es muy ancha y hay mucho espacio para aparcar a ambos lados. Lugar popular para paseadores de perros y modelos de aviones que vuelan durante el día, pero completamente tranquilo por la noche. Pasamos dos noches sin problema.

    such an amazing place. great night sleep. bearly anyone else around all day. - it's is very open and you can see for miles. - EE 4&5g really good. I was getting 100mbps download and similar upload. ID mobile was ok for 4g. - level ground. Well worth the sketchy road to get up here

    Omg… this spot is so nice… road is a bad one to it..but we made it in the siesta!!!! You need to do this one ???

    We got up here with a 7.4m van, but we’re probably a lot more adventurous/reckless than most, so I don’t know that it’s ideal. Very rough track on the way up, 1st gear and wheels spinning, but doable. Parking area only JUST wide enough to turn the van around. Worth it for the peaceful rest at the top!

    Hi, we originally put this spot up on P4N. Just wanted to thank you for all the good reviews, but please note the lower car park now has a sign prohibiting overnight stays. It’s not clear if that also applies to the top track, so for now please be respectful when staying and hopefully it’ll last for campers to continue enjoying. If not it’s still a great place for the daytime!

    Great sun set spot. Access ok with a 2WD when dry. Bit of litter about, duly picked up

    Beautiful spot, car park is an easy option but we went up the lane ontop of the hill where it is plenty wide enough to park up and nice and level. Decent 4g signal up top of hill. wouldnt recommend going up the steep byway section if you dont have good ground clearance.

    stayed here a couple of times now 30 mins from home lovely quiet place worth the drive to the top of the lane would recommend.

    What a spot, drove to the top up the gravel track, lots of dog walkers evening and morning but still very quiet and some lovely walks around the bronze age fort,

    Arrived here late in the evening and decided to go to the top of the hill which is a very rough gravel road. We were followed up the lane by a car which had been waiting in the bottom car park. They then pulled in directly behind where we chose to stop. We sat there for 15 minutes and then decided to leave.

    Cool place to visit, the lane is very narrow though, we brushed our wing mirrors all the way up the lane. Wouldn’t want to meet another vehicle coming the other way…but great overall.

    Definitely worth going up the lane for this spot. The views are stunning and the sunset was beautiful. Spent a peaceful night here with no disturbance. Also the stars are amazing when they are out here.

    Beautiful sunset, bronze age burial ground, good handstanding. Few passing places on the approach. Last 300m (up a steep slope) has enormous potholes. We made it in our 7m motorhomes... but it was a bit nerve-wracking

    stayed for 2 nights lovely views around the old fort road up with rough but ok we were on our own both nights.

  • 5/5

    we stayed for 1 night was very quite with great views we drove to the top and was only joined by a couple of dog walkers and another van

  • 5/5

    arrived very late so didn't chance going all the way to the top but found a nice flat spot in the carpark. excellent spot. was a clear night and there was zero light pollution so ideal for a spot of stargazing

    Lovely spot with great views. I came up from the Red Lion end - nice little car park half way up the hill. Road was good up to the car park though narrow! After that there are potholes ok. At the top of the hill there is space to park/turn but I couldn't get further due to 2 massive puddles. I did see landrovers go through them no problem though! Didnt need to go further as it was lush up there.

    This place is great! Nice and quiet with a great view and a nice walk.

    Well worth continuing up the track to the top, although potholey so wouldn’t want to in the dark. Great views, popular with dog walkers but all friendly.
