Avon Valley Adventure and Wildlife Park Camping

Liked: - the staff could not have been helpful and kind. Nobody could do enough to make our stay pleasant - variety of activities for the young ones - slip in slide, foam party, go karts, tractor rides, dinosaur walks, climbing frames, soft play etc… there was so much to do. - access after hours was great, we could enjoy a drink while the kids played in the sand, soft play and climbing frames. -campsite was clean- toilets, rustic shower and wash area were all well maintained. -nice you could have a fire pit and they even provided wood. (Very kind staff even showed me how to put the fire together) - pizza bar in the evening was brilliant. - really was a great family stay all round and would definitely go back.

Disliked: - the bar was very expensive at £6 a pint ,so we didn’t have too many drinks at the bar (but would have liked to) and the pumps weren’t great so the pint regally wasn’t worth it. There is a happy hour but think that once the campsite closes to the day guests it should stay at happy hour prices rather than peak theme park prices. - when they had a private function the kids couldn’t use the soft play in the evening, I get they hire it out but think the small group of children staying in the campsite could have used it too, as they were all just sat waiting for it to open for them.

Liked: Having access to the park outside of hours was the real draw to booking here and it did not disappoint.There's so much to see and do, the children were never short of activities. The trip was fantastic value for money. The campsite itself was basic but well maintained and the facilities were looked after. Staff, on the whole, were extremely friendly and helpful both onsite and in the park.

Disliked: The small grass pitches were not clearly signposted and it took us (and other families) a little while to find our pitches. Better signposting/information on opening times for food and drink facilities is necessary. For example, when we went to order food at 4.30, we were told that they had stopped serving food and would reopen at 5.30 with the evening menu. This was not signed anywhere. We walked around to the bar (which appeared open, staff were behind the bar chatting) but were completely ignored, to which we summised that the bar too, reopened at 5.30 (though staff did not have the courtesy to tell us as we waited) All of this bad feeling could be easily avoided with clear signage. Similarly, be aware that breakfast stops being served at 11am and lunch does not begin until 12pm, again, I had to ask to find this out as there was no signage.

Liked: Access to the children's park for two days and after hours access. Great food and staff were friendly and park wasn't too busy so kids could go on and off activities as they wanted. They loved the foam party & slip and slide.

Disliked: Didn't realise we'd be camping in a car park. Toilets and showers could be better but the after hours park access made up for this. Overall the camping section of the trip was expensive.

Liked: Lots of daily activities for children to enjoy, very clean around the park. Food and drink choices were good throughout the day and reasonable prices. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Disliked: Camping area was a bit neglected. Lots of stinging nettles around the area where we stopped, grass not very well maintained. No facilities to get a drink while park was closed, a vending machine would have been good. Very dark at night so unable to walk to toilet blocks safely with children with guide ropes and nettles everywhere. Nothing really to do of an evening. Advised you to wash hands regularly but not all wash stations had water. No wifi

Liked: Staff were more than helpful and very polite. Kids loved having access to the play area and the animals outside of public access times. The pitch was clean and tidy well maintained. Showers and toilets very clean and well maintained. Only a short drive to the park and ride into bristol. Will definitely come back and hopefully stay longer next time.

Disliked: Price of the drinks were a bit expensive outside of happy hour. £6 for a pint.

Liked: Campsite is clean and tidy. Park keeps kids entertained, liked that the bar stayed open and served pizza.

Disliked: Would have liked to have been next to friends, I think this could have been accommodated as pitches weren't disclosed until arrival

Liked: The campsite was lovely! The amenities were more than suitable and the park itself was amazing! There was plenty to do and the animals were adorable! The staff were all very friendly and more than accommodating. The site itself was so close to both Bath and Bristol so not only is there plenty to do on the site, you are close enough to explore local activities. We would absolutely stay here again!
