Foxhangers, Rowde, Devizes, Wiltshire

Foxhangers is a picturesque 90-acre "evolving" farm located at the base of the iconic Caen Hill Locks. With a canal-side wharf offering narrowboat hire and a marina housing 40 boats, this tranquil setting is perfect for a relaxing getaway. Guests are warmly welcomed by Colin and Cynthia Fletcher to enjoy self-catering mobile homes or the small, charming campsite.  

The campsite consists of two paddocks, each under an acre. One paddock, slightly sloping, accommodates members of the Caravan & Camping Club, while the other is reserved for tents. Six caravan pitches include electric hook-ups, with shower and toilet facilities located just 40 yards from the field. Guests should note that the electricity supply is suited for lighting, televisions, and similar devices, but not for heaters or kettles.  

Four mobile holiday homes are set in the farm’s orchard, surrounded by fruit trees and mature gardens. Each home features full central heating, double glazing, and excellent insulation, offering a comfortable and cosy stay. The paved patios ensure easy access, with no steps from the car to the home, and ample parking space for two vehicles is provided.  

Foxhangers is ideally located beside the canal towpath, which has been transformed into an all-weather path, perfect for cycling or a leisurely stroll. The Caen Hill Locks, a marvel of late 18th-century engineering, are just a half-hour walk from the farm and lead to the market town of Devizes.  

Situated in central Wiltshire, Foxhangers offers easy access to the region's most famous landmarks, including the ancient stone circles of Avebury and Stonehenge. The area is rich with delightful villages, each reflecting the character of its local building materials. Guests can also explore the nearby Georgian city of Bath, just 15 miles away, or visit the charming town of Bradford on Avon. Salisbury’s Cathedral Close, often considered unparalleled in its beauty, is another highlight. All essential amenities are conveniently located within a mile of the farm.  

Foxhangers provides an idyllic escape, combining rural charm, historical significance, and modern comfort.
