Littleton retreat (added by linda_c424913 08 aug 2022)

Dog-friendly Wiltshire retreat on a smallholding just off the A350
A 15-minute drive to the Kennet and Avon Canal; 35 minutes to Bath
A five-minute drive from pubs and takeaways; walking trails nearby

Towpath adventures, country walks, Roman baths and laidback pub crawls? If you’re liking the sound of all of the above, Littleton Retreat has the recipe. Located on a smallholding just off the A350 in Littleton, Semington, your Wiltshire wanderlust will be well treated here. Make your way to the Kennet and Avon Canal, 15 minutes’ drive away, for peaceful towpath bike rides and days of boating or take yourself off-piste onto various local walks. Melksham, the local town, is 45 minutes’ walk from the site if you fancy a takeaway. Or perhaps you might want to plot out your own route for a relaxed, daytime pub crawl (the first pub is a short drive or cycle away) in and around Melksham. Littleton Retreat is a well-maintained site with mainly level grassy pitches. It’s a simple sort of getaway – the type where guests can fully unwind without too many distractions (unless you count the towpath adventures and Bath’s many Roman sites and cobbled streets, 35 minutes’ drive away, that is). The facilities consist of drinking water, an Elsan point, portable toilets and waste disposal.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: We found everything about this site just perfect, the owner was a fantastic chap, totally went out of his way to explain everything and nothing was too much trouble. A great location when exploring the area,, close to major roads, but we only heard the odd motorbike noise during the day, but nothing during the evening and night. We wished we had longer than the single night as it was so peaceful.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for your lovely review, glad you enjoyed your stay lovely meeting you, both, thanks ady.

Local attractions

What will Wiltshire serve you up? There’s medieval architecture, a brewery and a working set of Shire horses in Devizes (15 minutes’ drive) – that might make you feel like you’re back in the olden’ days. The same goes for Trowbridge (10 minutes), which is one of 23 Magna Carta towns (very important places 800 years back in time). Nowadays, it has a splendid weekly market and great shopping streets. Tick off a bucket list item while you’re making your way around, as the stone circle of Stonehenge (half an hour) isn’t too far away either. Avebury (half an hour) has another ancient stone circle, which is part of the Avebury World Heritage Site. If you’re not quite done with the historical itinerary, Bradford-on-Avon (15 minutes) on the river Avon has an ancient bridge, 19th-century cloth mills and old weavers’ cottages. There’s an Elizabethan manor house in Longleat (half an hour) too, but another big attraction there is the drive-in safari park where monkeys can clamber over your car and lions can stride past your vehicle.
