Parking lot day/night

Kingsclere, White Hill

White Hill. Lots of nature walks from here. Lots of parking although busy in the day. Just about enough length for a long wheel base if you back into stinging nettles and use your side door teehee. No height/width/closure barriers. Entrance is a bit hidden by trees and has a slight slope upwards so approach with caution and all should be okay. Very popular so motorists around you should understand. Lots of signage and info on the area and wildlife such as what birds you can spot. Popular for sunset/sunrise views of the valleys. Good for kite flying, etc.

Brilliant place to explore with Watership down forest local. Views are amazing.. Busy during the day. Quiet overnight.

Waren an einem regnerischen Tag, steile schlammige Auffahrt, für große Womos könnte es schwierig werden. Großer Parkplatz mit schöner Aussicht.

Lovely stop for the night. Flat and great sunset views. Tight and steep turn into the parking lot and limited depth to parking area, so not for larger MHs. Busy in evening with locals but quiet once dark and little noise (well, once other MH turned off generator, put chairs in, and finished jet washing their MH. (Jeez, people... try to be discreet or you'll get us banned from places like this)

prachtige locatie - rustig gelegen, onbeschrijfelijk vergezicht, proper en veilig. we hebben er van genoten! (geen services, wel vuilbakken aanwezig ter hoogte van de weg)

Wow, this is a gem of a find, quiet and just off the road, beautiful and stunning views. Not forgetting Watership down woods just a short walk away

What a great spot to stay! Arrived around 6pm and parked up, raised verge made it easy to level up (van 7.2m). Took a walk up to Watership’s Down, beautiful views and back to van for sunset. As others mention, there was a few young couples watching the sunset (good for them!), they left shortly after sundown. Was quiet overnight and in the morning the sunrise was glorious. Highly recommend.

You need to be on the B3051 heading south. Nearly up the summit of that hill (White Hill) you have a layby on the right hand side and the car park is immediately opposite the layby by the green sign as on the second photo. Great views and room for 6 to 8 motorhomes. Spent two very quiet nights there.

Arrived about 7pm and only one other campervan, couple of cars with small BBQ enjoying the evening sunset. We felt safe with level parking. No concern and would use again. There are no facilities at this car park. Parking is free.

What a wonderful place. Stayed a full 24hrs and to be honest regret not staying a second night. Phone signal great. on arrival the local Scouts group had a meet up which lasted about 2hrs and was extremely noisy but after they left we had one other van all night. No bin here but there is one on the layby opp the car park turning. Loved the views

Arrived late, plenty of space with a couple of other campers already down for the night! Nice quiet night and great views to wake up to.

We’ve parked an almost 8 metre van lengthways on a Thursday night. Level car park and beautiful view. Easy flat walks along the hill. Little bit of noise from the road but sure it will be quieter later.

Lovely quiet night (mon) raining next morning so there were not many walkers turning up either. Great walks on the wayfarers walk.

Stopped here on Friday evening for dinner and a walk, watched the sun setting over the spectacular view! We decided against staying for the night as it seemed a popular spot for young romance!

Nice size car park with spectacular views. A few cars early on and late, they walk up to Watership Down. Great overnight stop, local farmer very friendly.

If only there were more places like this. A busy place but silent once the sun has beautifully set.

Arrived late morning on Sunday was very busy with walkers. Difficult to drive up to car park because of mud on road took me 4 attempts. Very windy day rocking the motorhome a bit. Well worth a stay with beautiful views across the downs. Unfortunately lots of rubbish just thrown on the floor which I just spent my time in the rain picking it up.

Nice stop over stop. Very quiet night no problems at all. Can be rather exposed to wind.

Lovely views over the hills which was inspiration for the novel Watership Down. Weekends can be busy as it connects along Wayfarers Walk. Take care if leaving a vehicle unattended as it's a well know hotspot for theft. A small bin is on the other side of the road. Can be a little rubbish left behind, i tend to clear up after I stay at a spot anyway as us Wilders can get the blame.

Great, plenty of parking on road or in car park. Entrance not massively obvious, can easily fly past it. Enough space for long wheel base. Great views. Nice to back doors against the sunset. Busy in the day. Many young people early eve. Peaceful at night.

Parked up for the night, quiet location, a few other camper vans were there for the night to, a few cars came and went, but over all a great location. I'll definitely be back. Quiet, beautiful views of the farms down the valley, sunset one side, sunrise the other, what more does one need!

100% underrated. Best spot I’ve been to in the south of the UK. Really beautiful

Lovely place no problems at all. Very busy, everyone very friendly. Please please take your rubbish with you as there are no bins. Just because you tie a black bag to the gate and then leave it behind you are still dumping rubbish..... Don't!!

Beautiful views, generally very quiet. There is a lay-by on the road and full car park behind, next to some farmland. There was a noisy van there for an hour or so but otherwise lovely.

Lovely place to park up for the night. Great views and a fabulous walk along the Wayfarers Way. We parked in the layby which meant the van rocked with the busy traffic and no privacy however there is a car park which would provide these.

Bon emplacement. A l'abri des regards, jolie vue. Quelques promeneurs en mâtinée et en soirée.

This was a great place to stay. great sunset and walks near by. very quiet. watched some homing pigeons be released. it's also the setting of inspiration for watership down. there are bins and it's quiet. i saw cows, rabbits and buzzards

Fantastic views. Spent a few days over Christmas. Busy in the day time. "silent night. " police came into car park and left wonderful walks. Large enough for motor homes with slide-outs. Recommended. No

Endroit très bien, belle vue, deux défauts : la route s'entends fort et très passante, sol poussiéreux.

Beautiful hilltop views of surrounding feilds. no roads in sight but can hear the road quite loudly with camper window open. lovely walks. police did make a routine trip in and out the car park but did not disturb us in our very blatent camper. It was still light at 8pm on a Thursday summers night.

We stayed here on a Monday night, the area is beautiful, lots of walks and amazing views from the carpark. There was a dog walker here in the morning but other than them we have had the carpark to ourselves. Very peaceful and would definitely recommend staying here.
