  • Pop-up site at a Wiltshire farm on the outskirts of Bradford-upon-Avon
  • Kennet and Avon Canal 10 minutes’ walk and Longleat 20 minutes’ drive
  • Animal encounters and farm produce available; opposite a pub
Set on a family farm on the outskirts of Wiltshire’s historic town of Bradford-upon-Avon, Southview Farm Meadow is a pop-up site with pitches mown into an open field. Although it is off-grid, basic creature comforts are offered in the form of a mobile toilet and gas-powered shower; portable loos are available in high season and firepits are available for hire when the ground is not tinder-dry. You can buy farm-produced goats’ milk and cheese, sparkling elderflower cordial and cider from the owners, and meet-and-greet the resident animals. The goats are milked daily at 6.30am and 6.30pm if you fancy trying your hand, while other cuddly characters on-site include rabbits, free-range runner ducks and chickens. As the land is alive with wildlife, keep your eyes open for buzzards, red kites and kestrels circling overhead. There’s a grass recreation area for football and other ball games, and you have easy access to the Kennet and Avon Canal (10 minutes’ walk) for paddleboarding and canoeing. It’s 10 minutes’ walk along the canal path to the nearest supermarket, and there are several pubs about the same distance away, as well as restaurants in the town centre. The bus stop at the end of the drive takes you into Bradford in less than five minutes, or on to historic Bath in 20 minutes.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Location was excellent. Right next to the canal towpath, just 15mins walk from the supermarket and town centre. Bus route and pub at the entrance and railway station also within easy walking distance. Owners are friendly, helpful and approachable. Facilities are basic but kept clean and well supplied. Shower was hot and with good water pressure. A few farm animals to see and pet. Phone/data signal good.

Disliked Only 1 normal toilet and shower but it is the first year of opening so hopefully that will increase with time.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked This campsite has everything you need for a quiet break, large field with very generous size pitches and decent space between each one.
Toilets and showers always kept very clean, was very impressed by the warm shower, never went cold.
Olly and Becky were incredible owners, very welcoming, the kids loved coming to visit the animals.
We bought freshly made lemonade, elderflower cordial, goats cheese and selection of meat.
Got to taste their cider and bought some to take home.
A short 20 minute walk along the canal into Bradford on Avon.
Others have commented on the road but it never bothered us.
Kids didn’t want to leave and have all asked to come back again next year!

Liked Such an amazing experience at this campsite! So peaceful, spacious and great facilities. Me and my partner came across this place on our campervan travel, we were so lucky to book this same day.
Olly & Becky were super welcoming and showed us around the farm, very helpful with local restaurants and public transport into the local town.
100% recommend and if we come back this side of the UK we’ll be back!
Thank you! X

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked On the Avon and Kennet canal with great access to launch kayak/paddle boards. Few minute walk to join tow path along canal
10-15 min cycle to town (with kids)
Super friendly hosts who chatted with us and showed us around their lovely small hold.
Animals for the children to say hello to
Great space between the pitches, felt far enough away to not hear conversations

Disliked Not really dislikes but basic toilet/shower facilities, probably wouldn’t want a whole week here but perfect for a few days. Kept super clean, lovely hot water

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Nice large spaces in the field. Near romantic Bradford on Avon and a good pub with fabulous food (The Dandy Lion). Verry kind family is hosting. Facilities (toilet, shower, sink) are clean. The warm shower is super!

Disliked Lots of traffic on the roads well into the night and early in the morning. Did not really disturb me, but if you're looking for a place that goes quiet this might not be the best option.

Liked The campsite has everything you need for a nice getaway. There is easy access to a lovely canal walk, local pub, supermarket and bus stop and train station into Bath.

The owners are extremely helpful and accommodating. My daughters were desperate to see the animals in their small holding everyday we were there, and this was no trouble. Very much appreciated so big thank you!

The shower block and toilets were very clean and well looked after. It was nice to be so close to the canal and able to watch the boats come by.

I would definitely return. Impeccable hospitality l.
