About Ladybird Farm
Tucked into a hamlet on the edge of Rockbourne village, Ladybird Farm spreads across grassy paddocks in the Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs National Landscapes. It's a properly back-to-basics affair – non-electric pitches for tents and campervans, firepits for evening warmth, and an honesty shop stocked with local honey, eggs, bread and fresh spinach. Facilities are deliberately simple: clean showers and toilets, a washing-up area, and a communal kitchen with cooking essentials. The no-noise policy after dark keeps things peaceful, though some may find the provision a touch spartan if you're used to more creature comforts.
What it lacks in polish it makes up for in position. A network of footpaths fans out through the surrounding countryside, while thatched cottages and a food-serving pub sit barely a minute's walk away. Fordingbridge and the New Forest fringe are ten minutes by car; closer still are Damerham and Whitsbury, both reachable on foot via car-free trails. Families appreciate the space for children to roam and the stargazing opportunities once the fires die down.

What visitors say
Absolutely amazing peaceful stay had at Ladybird Farm. Booked for 2 nights and stayed for 4, as we just didn't want to leave. Great showers and clean toilets throughout the day. The fully equipped kitchen with hob was great for making a cuppa and sitting in there to eat. Although we did BBQ two of the nights we used the kitchen on our extra nights. It was lovely that there was an honesty shop with eggs, marshmallows and freshly cut spinach / lettuce from the onsite market garden. We also took advantage of the fire pit and logs available on site to toast our marshmallows and sit out of an evening to look at the stars, watch the bats and hear the owls. Highly recommend staying here and we will definitely be back.

Cracking little campsite. Great facilities and communal camp kitchen great for the family. Hannah and her husband were so accommodating. Local sourdough on sale each morning was to die for. Also salad on sale grown on site. Campsite is 5mins into village with pub and few mins to shop and on to Fordingbridge. Quiet site with the 'no music' rule fab with a young family. Ladybird farm is such a great campsite and an asset to the village and supporting local businesses. Will be back.

Friendlh family run site with bell tents or pitch your own or bring camper van. There is a very high quality market garden on site and retail outlet for bread, eggs etc. Right on the border of glorious countryside and walks with easy close access to the village pub which has great beers and fabulous food and is very child and dog friendly.
