Peckish guests of this Meon Valley site make a beeline for the Dell: an idyllic patch serving piping hot pizzas and drinks at its safari-style Beech Bar (get it?) in the dappled evening light. Several pubs are close too, ripe for celebratory ales to reward South Downs Way stomps. As for your digs, you could keep things cheap and cheerful with a grassy camping pitch, bed down in a reimagined horse carriage or splash out on a safari tent complete with a kitchen and deck.
Details One night’s camping from £14pp; one night’s self-catering for six in a safari tent from £150 (cedarvalley.co.uk)
