  • Peaceful rural site two miles from the village of Wickwar
  • Half an hour's drive from Bristol and 40 minutes from Bath
  • Dog-friendly site in a handy location for both M4 and M5 motorways
A laidback rural spot with convenient access to a couple of the country’s most famed cities – if that sounds like a fine mix for a break, steer your travels towards The Daisy Paddock, a lovely little place in the Gloucestershire countryside a couple of miles from the village of Wickwar. It's next to a train line, so some noise will be heard from trains, although they don't run 24 hours per day. Spacious this place is, but stuffed with people it is not – numbers on site are kept on the low side to make sure all guests have plenty of space for all those essential countryside activities (barbecues, campfires, epic football games, lengthy periods spent in a deckchair with a brew or two…). If you want to keep country vibes going on your days out that’s easily done, for this is a fine area in which to take a walk or a bike ride, with plenty of quiet paths to potter along and pubs to refresh in as you go (the nearest being a 40-minute amble away in Wickwar). Squeezing in a bit of city life as well? Bristol city centre is about half an hour away by car, and the elegant streets of Bath are around 40 minutes away. Back at base, the offerings are simple but should keep life ticking along smoothly: drinking water, a toilet and an Elsan point are all provided, and you’re welcome to bring along whatever combination of kids and dogs makes up your travelling entourage.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Loved the location it is next to a busy train line however the passing trains did not affect us in the least. The site is rural and set in a well maintained area. Quirky little restroom very well kept and meticulously clean. No showers but that wasn't a problem It has its own little signal box which was such a cute addition.
The Gentleman who welcomed us onto site was very friendly and informative
Pity it was just a stop over as we were travelling home from Cornwall back to Yorkshire...definitely a perfect half way stop.

Thankyou for your hospitality

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Huge spaces, and only five in a big field. No showers, just a toilet, but weirdly that made it feel extra special and only self sufficient campers or people doing short one nighters. Perfect location for The Wave as about 30th away. Dawn and Kerry were fabulous hosts.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Very well kept space, with large pitches. Used it as an overnight stop and it was perfect. Only had one toilet but loved the train signal on the top which lit up when in use. Several trains passed but we enjoyed watching them.

Local attractions

Bristol’s a mighty fine place to spend the day – especially if you’re up for filling the kids’ brains with clever stuff without them noticing. There are excellent hands-on displays at We The Curious science museum, relics from the past at M Shed and glimpses into Victorian life at Brunel’s SS Great Britain (complete with sounds and smells and a mast to climb if you’re feeling brave). The city’s zoo and aquarium are worth a stop too, as are the many cafés and restaurants. Rather more genteel is Bath (40 minutes’ drive), which also makes for a great day out wandering along the famed Royal Crescent, surveying the Roman Baths and gliding along the river on a boat trip. Stylish sorts may also like to trace a bit of history through the garb on display at the Fashion Museum. Steering clear of cities for a bit? Plan instead for outings to Westonbirt Arboretum (25 minutes), Prince Charles’s pad Highgrove Royal Gardens (half an hour) or Prior Park Landscape Garden (40 minutes).
