Wild camping is not legally permitted in England without the landowner's explicit permission, and Romsey is no exception, so plan on a proper campsite or a farm pitch with the owner's consent rather than pitching up on the riverbank or in the water meadows around the Test. The town sits on the edge of the Test Valley, gently rolling chalk downland and river meadows rather than the heathland of the New Forest a little further south, so campsites in the immediate area tend to be small, rural sites set among farmland, orchards or paddocks, with the New Forest's larger Forestry England campsites within easy reach for those wanting a change of scenery. The terrain is generally easy walking and cycling country, with the Test Way long-distance path passing close to town for anyone keen to explore by foot from a fixed base.

Late spring through early autumn is the most comfortable stretch for camping here, when the water meadows are at their greenest and evenings are long enough for a walk along the river after dinner; the Hillier Gardens and Mottisfont's rose garden are also at their best in this window, giving campers plenty to fill the days. Summer school holidays bring the busiest spell, particularly around the New Forest sites, so booking ahead is wise if you want a pitch near Romsey itself in July and August. Outside those months the New Forest fringe stays mild by UK standards, though sites thin out and many rural options close over winter.

Glamping has a growing presence around Romsey and the wider Test Valley, with shepherd's huts, bell tents and safari-style lodges on small farms offering a step up from a tent without losing the rural feel, and several sit close enough to walk into town for a pub dinner. Combined with the New Forest's wider glamping scene just to the south, it means visitors after a proper bed and a fire pit rather than guy ropes and groundsheets have plenty of choice within a short drive of Romsey.
