Stonehenge Campsite and Glamping Pods

Great proximity to Stonehenge. Quiet, clean and pleasant campsite with noted little touches for comfort. Staff helpful, answered our call immediately and allowed us to move pitch hassle free when we had difficulty with our van in the grass.

Not a dislike, and it was wet in fairness, but take caution booking the grass field as an option for vans, we kept slipping and had to push off!

Very cool camping spots, great amenities like microwave and kettle which was unexpected

It was a bit muddy, but not something that can be controlled.

This was a lovely little campground. A few ups and downs, but we very much enjoyed our stay and would go back. Our corner pitch was beautiful, and conveniently located for entry and exit, as well as the washrooms were not to far away. We have a tent trailer and access to washrooms are very important. It is a dog friendly site, and since this was our first time away with our 2 American Akita's this was very important to us. There was plenty of space on the camp ground to walk them. The farm attached to the campground seemed well kept - out of bounds private, but you could still see it in some areas. One of our Akita's is fascinated by Horses on TV, he saw one for the first time in real life!!! I can't tell you what a memory that has made for all of us!! We had a lovely time and would recommend the place to any one! While we didn't use the glamping facilities because we have a trailer tent, they looked very nice as well!

They have only recently taken over the campground, so some of the kinks we found will most likely be sorted soon. However there were a few things so that people should be aware of just in case...
- The showers are paid showers (to help keep it environmentally friend, which we understand), so keep a timer handy to ensure that you don't run out of water mid shower, as the meter is outside the stall - at least in the ladies.
- The washrooms seemed tidy but I don't think they are washed often enough (again this could be the time of year) as there was one day where the ladies had no paper towels the entire day. And the mop they ask you to use after using the shower, has seen better days... again this could be due to the time of year. But as someone who suffers with foot issues often caused by poorly kept facilities, this is a big one for me.
-Laundry facilities - FIND A LAUNDRETTE!!! There is only one program on the washing machine, and the machine is super small! I had to resort to spot washing by hand as the machine was too small and since they turn off the power at night difficult to use, my stuff was stuck in the machine for 2 hours before I could get too it. The tumble dryer, well its £5 (5 £1 coins) per 15 min! So I spent £10 on tumble drying one item that I had to spot clean by hand. Make sure that in an emergence you have £1 coins a plenty (you need em for the showers as well) and £0.20 coins as you need those for resetting the machine (You need em for the hair dryers as well). The hot water in this area - which is also the Campers kitchen - wasn't working and until our third day I couldn't get the kettle supplied working. Nor could I figure outs the lights at all, so all dishes were completed by head torches when it started to get dark. Not sure if the microwave or fridge/freezer was even working... but again this could be due to the time of year, and the fact that they would have some of these facilities at all is still good!
- Despite being a dog friendly site (Dogs must be kept on leads) one of the other campers let their dog off and running around, which stressed ours out a bit. The site doesn't have dog poo bins. Again this was mentioned to me that they just took over and this was one of the things that was coming soon. So we were told to just use the general waste.
- Staff, very friend. However trying to find one when you really needed one was difficult, as there was not always a member of staff on site. I was more then once, mistaken for a member of staff and asked where to go. I had to explain each time I didn't work there. And the out of hours emergency number posted in the Campers Kitchen does not accept incoming calls. I told them what we were told when we were getting ready to arrive. Just go straight to your pitch, no need to check in. So know you pitch number ahead of time! An up to date map of the place would have been nice, as despite us knowing the pitch number, we still took a guess as the pitch was called a 'silver pitch', so we didn't know for sure if that meant that there was other pitches with the same number. Luckily we turned out to be fine, but not once did anyone come and check on us at our pitch, but we did get stopped outside the 'office' and greeted after we were set up, mostly to say hello to the dogs - but I can't blame them for that, I would stop me to say hello to the dogs too!
- There seemed to be a lovely walk behind the campground, as we saw more then one of the dogs onsite walking with their people back there, but we could not find how to get to the path at all. And with little to no staff around there was no one we could ask. So a local area included on the map (with dog friendly walks) would have been nice.
- Not sure where the waste water needs to go either, found the chem disposal but not grey water.

I know this seems like a lot of issues, but none of this took away from our experience, we still had a lovely time and we would go back!!!

Very homely set up down near reception. The team were great and facilities are more than adequate. I traveled with my dog, he also enjoyed the stay and local walks. Only note if traveling with a dog Salisbury town doesn't seem to dog friendly, but near Sarum Castle there is a free dog agility park.

The location

No evening warden, no check in or security so anyone can walk onto site even after paying £40!
a police incident happened where two drunk and drugged couple wandered onto site and tried to pitch. They then broke into two vans and caused a fight with a 70 year old gentleman. Warning horns were blown on cars asking for help, we called the site 6 times for help…. Nothing. In the end we ended up calling the police.
This started around 11:30pm and continued until around 3:30am. No warden or security on this site and very disappointed as we then had to be off the site by 10am leaving with no communication or contact from the owners or site even after leaving several voicemails through the night. If you are with a young family i DO NOT recommend this site.

Lovely big open site. Good facilities which were clean. Warden helpful and welcoming. A place to return to!

Nothing
