Park Farm Campsite

Liked The site its self and area was lovely. We had booked 3 nights but we left after 2. The set up is great, the toilet area and shower set up and washing up area is great too. However we had a few negatives …

Disliked This is an all year round campsite. We had the gravel pitch which is lovely however it’s next to a road which has cars, tractors etc coming up and down. Also it was next to the bins, old fire pits and old gas canisters which wasn’t the best and had been sometime by the looks of it. Also if you have this pitch when it was busier you would have a constant flow of vans, cars going past into the main field. When we arrived the hot water wasn’t on however they did text and asked if we wanted it on and we said that would be great and that night we were able to wash up. The next negative was lighting. The washing up area is in pitch black and we had torches but I think one small light would be a simple addition. We decided to have showers the next day in the light. We went out to the Cotswolds the next day and came back parked and headed over to wash up and have showers and the hot water wasn’t on again. I messaged that evening and the next day we got up and went over to the area and still no hot water. We were leaving the next day anyway so decided to head home early. I am not someone who wants to constantly hound someone for hot water. We just felt that if you stay open then the same facilities that are available in summer should be available all year. It’s a shame it’s a nice set up but because of the above we wouldn’t return.

From the manager: Hello Emma,

I’m so sorry to hear about your experience at our campsite. This is certainly not what we want for our guests, as we do our best to make everyone’s stay as enjoyable as possible.

That said, I’ve taken all your feedback on board, and I can see that during your stay we didn’t provide the experience we should have. Our hot water boilers have been playing up recently, which is increasingly frustrating for us too, and we’re doing our best to get the issue resolved. I’m really sorry that this affected your stay and that you had to keep chasing us.

We’re also going to look at the location of the gravel pitch and how we can improve that area of the campsite, as well as taking on board your feedback about the lighting.

I’m genuinely sorry for the disappointment. Please do message me directly, and I’d be very happy to refund you for your stay. We’d also love to welcome you back in the summer for a night on us, if you’d like to give us another chance.

I really hope this goes some way towards making up for your disappointing experience.

Best wishes,
Zoë

Liked The facilities and layout of the site are very well considered and clearly the hosts have gone the extra mile to make their guests stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The site has a family vibe and has very good eco credentials. The views are lovely and being on a working dairy farm adds to the connection with rural life.

Liked One of those fantastic uncomplicated sites. Turn up settle in and at some point someone will check in with you and make sure you feel welcome. It's a working farm and I met some lovely people on my early week stay in mid October.

Be prepared for the composting toilets and showers if you need more enclosed facilities, (clearly mentioned on their site), they are clean and well maintained. The showers have plenty of hot water. There are a couple of large undercover washing up sinks, fridge and charging facilities too.
It's a perfect site for a camp fire with friends.

Site is in the middle of Wiltshire farming community with several woods nearby, which is actually uncommon for the area, perfect for walking and off road cycling.

Disliked I think the place was perfect

Liked Lucky with neighbours. plenty of toilets. A sandpit for the children. A little honesty shop for a small amount of bits an bobs. A freezer for the ice packs and phone charger.

Disliked Site is on a slope, so things keep sliding off the tables. 😄
