We've recently returned from our third stay at Highview this year, and it would have been four had it not been for the unpredictable weather this year. We stayed for three nights to visit friends who live locally, but there's also plenty to see and do in the immediate area as well as further afield. We had a lovely lunch on the second day at The White Hart in Over Wallop, lovely cosy pub, pleasant staff and the food was really good. The pub has a hygiene rating of '5' and as someone who once had their holiday cut short and spent two weeks suffering the after effects of a dodgy pub ham sandwich, that's very reassuring. Danebury iron age hill fort is close by, fascinating history and amazing views, and a couple of miles further along is Stockbridge where a visit to Houghton Lodge is definitely worthwhile. Lovely gardens and grounds to wander around and the house is beautiful. If you do visit and feel that the house looks familiar, it might be because it's been used as a filming location for several productions including a BBC adaptation of David Copperfield. We didn't have time to travel too far, but just a quiet drive around some of the pretty villages in the area is nice, with all the lovely thatched cottages to see, one of which our friends live in and which usually means a bump on the head for me as I walk through the front door to shouts of 'mind your head'! The site as always was perfect, with everything we needed and a warm welcome from Vanessa. Highview is adjacent to the Hillside club site, but separated by trees and a shady lane which acts as a lovely dog walk with a very well placed bin for dog waste. The whole area was very quiet and peaceful, and visitors to Highview can use the little shop on the club site, where a very pleasant lady who was serving gave us lots of information regarding a query I had about gas bottles. Another very enjoyable stay and we're looking forward to returning next year.
