  • 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, two outdoor washing-up areas with hot water, a small freezer in a camping shed, several drinking water points, a grey waste point, an Elsan point and a recycling waste point.

What customers say

A tidy, friendly spot with roomy pitches. Ady's a great host! Handy for day trips. Road noise is noted by some, and while facilities are clean, toilet/shower numbers are being upgraded.

Liked Clean and well thought out. All the facilities you need for camping; showers, toilet, cleaning area, water and disposal bins. Great for adults. Pitch was large too.

Disliked Too close to a busy A road. No reception to talk to anyone.

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Cleanliness, size of pitches, nice environment
details texted to us on day of arrival which made it easy.
Site only small with clean toilets/shower.

Disliked Noise from the main road, waiting to hear the bang of a crash from the speeding cars/bikes.
Only 2 ladies toilets plus one in the only one shower. Could do with another loo and shower as people had to take in turns.
Glad we had a car to get about as not much to do close by

Liked Well kept grounds with good, clean facilities. The pitches were clearly marked with young hedging and each pitch had its own picnic table with an umbrella - very welcome in the recent heatwave. The owner was friendly.

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.
