  • 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 toilets, showers, a washing-up area, several drinking water points, a grey waste point, an Elsan point and a recycling waste point.

What customers say

This is a well-maintained, clean, and friendly campsite with spacious, level pitches. Many guests praised the helpful owner and excellent value for money. While generally well-equipped, some visitors noted a need for more ladies' toilets and additional showering facilities. Road noise was occasionally mentioned but often not disruptive. Future upgrades to facilities are planned.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked Well kept site, clear pitches, easy hook up and good clean toilets. Owner accommodating as my son who booked separately was put on the next pitch.

Disliked Very near the road and there is road noise all throughout day and night. Not a complaint - just something to note if you are sensitive to road noise.

Mel S.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked The site was lovely. It was very clean. The shower and toilets were lovely and clean. The grass was lovely, however a little soft due to the recent rain. It was not busy on the site, but even if it was full, it would have been enough space for us all. I didn’t mind being close to the road, as I wore ear plugs at night.
I liked how the site was secure, with the entrance gate padlocked.
There was a small dog walking area, which was enough for my dog to do his business. Just be aware it has a barbed wire fence round it.
There was an inside dish washing area, which was great for protecting you from the wind. There was good recycling facilities too.
Ady was easy to get hold of if you needed to ask any questions.
I would definitely go back again.

Disliked I wished there were more hard standing pitches available as I felt awful when we wheel-spun on the lovely grass.
It was a little noisy from the road, but didn’t bother me.

Liked Great little site in a super location. Close to road but it wasn't loud enough to disturb me even though there were overnight roadworks too.
Clean toilets and shower was perfectly hot. I would definitely stay here again.

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.
