Liked: Quietness, country location but short walk to the lovely small town of Pindon. Both pubs had really good food. Facilities on site are better than most.

Unpowered grass site

Liked: We had the whole place to ourselves when we arrived. Got the code for the padlock (easy set up). Simple but great for us. Trailer type showers and toilets. They were clean and excellent hot showers. The owner had just cut the grass in the field. So really nice condition on a sunny day. We might struggle if it was wet. Our camper has lowered suspension and there’s no road. It’s pretty much a field. The owner was really friendly and we were really pleased in general. Thanks.

Disliked: Nothing to complain about

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Beautiful location, grass was well kept. Lots of open space to let the children be free range without imposing on any other campers. Toilet and shower area were very clean. Liked the fact that the gate is always locked, so you know everyone is safe. Lots of beautiful walks in the area and great pubs to get refreshed at. Even got to see some Kites flying over the site.

Liked: The size and privacy afforded with the motorhome pitches. Close to village with its exceptional pub. Brilliant for bike riding and long walks through the woods.

Disliked: Can’t get in at the end of May. It’s fully booked…😭😭😭😭😭

Local attractions

Whether you’re taking the dog for a wander or sloping off for a well-earned pint in the pub you’ve come to the right place for country walks – there are oodles of paths to pick from in the local area. If you'd rather pedal, have a chat with the folk at local outfit Cranks and Planks for e-bike hire. For a rather grander backdrop to your rambles, aim for the gorgeous gardens at Stourhead (15 minutes’ drive) or the lakeside Old Wardour Castle (20 minutes) – this latter is in a ruined state but still intact enough for youngsters to play at being knights. Surely no visit to this area would be complete without stopping by at Stonehenge (20 minutes) to see the ancient circle up close, and taking a stroll around Salisbury (half an hour) to explore its market and gaze up at the cathedral’s 123-metre spire. A full day out should certainly be planned at Longleat (20 minutes) as well – alongside the drive-through safaris are friendly farm animals, a mini railway to ride on, a castle-themed playground and one of the biggest hedge mazes in the world (plus a very smart house with formal gardens and art collection, if that’s more your thing…)
