Postern Hill

Postern Hill is a woodland campsite operated by Forestry England, set within Savernake Forest in Wiltshire — a sprawling Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty covering more than 4,500 acres.

The site sits among ancient trees, including the notable Big Bellied Oak, and dry and wet valleys that shelter rare wildlife such as Hawfinches, Redstarts, Nightjars, and Red Kites.

The campsite has drawn visitors seeking seclusion and a genuine forest experience. A bicycle hire shop is located immediately adjacent, offering an easy way to explore the surrounding countryside.

Note that the site is currently closed while Forestry England considers options for future operators.
