  • Peaceful adults-only Wiltshire caravan site near Chippenham
  • Half an hour’s drive to Bath, 10 minutes to Lacock and five to the M4
  • Security barrier and dog-exercise field; pub five minutes’ walk
Neatly manicured grounds and lots of greenery dividing the pitches into bays are just a taster of what's in store at adults-only Plough Lane Caravan Site, near Chippenham in Wiltshire. Thanks to its proximity to the M4 (five minutes’ drive), it’s also thoroughly easy to access (no reversing down narrow lanes for tractors here) as well as being close to the southern Cotswolds and gorgeous historic Bath. The site is secured with a barrier and all pitches have electric hook-ups, water and waste water disposal points. Carefully maintained facilities include a heated shower block with hot water, spacious cubicles and hair dryers, plus a launderette with an iron and dryer. Brought the dogs on holiday too? Let them have an off-lead runaround in the designated exercise field. Looking for inspiration for days out? Have a nose through the books in the information area, which also has books and DVDs to keep you entertained on any rainy days. Although it's on the edge of open countryside, the site still offers lots of local amenities: you can walk to stops on bus routes to Chippenham and the Cotswolds town of Malmesbury within five minutes, and if you like the sound of a pint, there are a couple of pubs within a five-minute drive or a 25-minute walk of the site. Going down the self-catering route? Pick up supplies from the supermarket on the outskirts of Chippenham (five minutes’ drive).

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: The very large pitches. Friendly staff. Buses into Chippenhan easily accessed, one of the stops being a 3 minute walk from the site. Adult only made our stay nice and peaceful.
Washing up facilities adequate with very hot water. Did not use the shower facilities so cannot comment, however they appeared clean and well maintained. Site has a barrier with key code for added security. 2 pubs within a 25 minute walk.

Disliked: Some road noise present but this did not bother us.

Dee C. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: Nice size pitch and lady on reception was very helpful.

Disliked: Loo block had terrible water pressure. Flushes didn’t work properly and the showers were a dribble, especially if someone flushed at the same time. Tired decor and you’ll need a long hook up cable unless you happen to be in the middle of the 3 pitches sharing a point. I booked adult only only expecting quiet- but the people next to me had a radio on all day and I was the other side of the hedge to the dog park and had to listen to a fair bit of shouting at Fido! Road noise expected, but was loud.

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: As a first time campervanner travelling on my own with my dog on his first ever holiday, I was a bit apprehensive as I hadn't got a clue what I was doing and was concerned about safety as a female on my own. I needn't have worried - I felt very safe and staff were really helpful. There was plenty of space for each pitch and the site was very well laid out, clean and tidy as were the shower and toilet facilities.

The dog walking field was a great bonus.

Disliked: The noise of the nearby A350 - although quite loud it did not impact on our quality of sleep.

Hearing that there is a possibility that next year the site may change its use to static caravans only. Please can they keep a few touring spaces!! It would be really good if they could have 6ft fencing and gates in the dog walking field as it would have been great to be able to let my high jumping woofah off his lead - this could even be an idea for a subsidary business.

Local attractions

Fancy a nose around the southern Cotswolds? Lacock (10 minutes’ drive) is a rather lovely place to start, with lots of Georgian cottages and a riverside abbey where scenes from Harry Potter were filmed. Heading north is Castle Combe (15 minutes), often called the prettiest village in England), with a medieval market cross and a sprinkling of cosy tea rooms. Go way back in time to marvel at prehistoric man’s ingenuity with a visit to the stone circles and informative visitor centre at Stonehenge (50 minutes), or get up close to standing stones at Avebury. On the way between these two landmarks, stop off to admire 19th-century engineering skills at Caen Hill Locks (both half an hour) near Devizes, where a series of 29 locks rise up a steep hillside. Another local must-see Longleat (40 minute), with its popular safari tours to spot lions, tigers and giraffes, but if your interests are more city-based, head straight to Bath (half an hour) for its indie shopping and regal architecture, or nip up the M4 to Designer Outlet Swindon (20 minutes) for some serious bargain hunting.
