Electric grass pitch

Liked: Only stayed one night but absolutely loved the site. Quiet and peaceful. Lovely views. Facilities excellent, only trailer type toilets/showers but very good quality and clean. Would definitely stay there again. Very easy access just off A303. Lovely village, walkable albeit down a steep hill.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Mark T. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Beautiful location, close to A303 but little traffic noise, clean toilet and shower block, plenty of space, two nice (if pricey) pubs about 15 minute walk away in pretty village of Hindon. Well maintained grass. Option of electric hook-up if needed.

Disliked: There was a party of young people over the other side of the field in several large tents who were quite loud with shouting and music until past 1am which wasn’t ideal. Hopefully we were just unlucky and normally the site would be quiet overnight.

Local attractions

Whether you’re taking the dog for a wander or sloping off for a well-earned pint in the pub you’ve come to the right place for country walks – there are oodles of paths to pick from in the local area. If you'd rather pedal, have a chat with the folk at local outfit Cranks and Planks for e-bike hire. For a rather grander backdrop to your rambles, aim for the gorgeous gardens at Stourhead (15 minutes’ drive) or the lakeside Old Wardour Castle (20 minutes) – this latter is in a ruined state but still intact enough for youngsters to play at being knights. Surely no visit to this area would be complete without stopping by at Stonehenge (20 minutes) to see the ancient circle up close, and taking a stroll around Salisbury (half an hour) to explore its market and gaze up at the cathedral’s 123-metre spire. A full day out should certainly be planned at Longleat (20 minutes) as well – alongside the drive-through safaris are friendly farm animals, a mini railway to ride on, a castle-themed playground and one of the biggest hedge mazes in the world (plus a very smart house with formal gardens and art collection, if that’s more your thing…)
