  • Peaceful rural site one mile from the Bratton Camp and White Horse
  • A 15-minute drive from Longleat; 35 minutes from Bath and Stonehenge
  • Horse riding on site; short-term accommodation for horses and ponies
Ready for a splendid wild ride in the Wiltshire countryside? A horse riding school for the past 30 years, Long River Farm is also a dog-friendly spot for peaceful rural stay… plot down in the paddocks and take a wander off site to admire the chalk horse-shaped workmanship at the Iron Age Bratton Camp and White Horse, just 20 minutes’ walk away from the site. If you’re on a mission to tick off the area’s historical sites, Stonehenge and Bath’s Roman spas are both 35 minutes’ drive away. As for those with an affinity for wildlife, Longleat’s safari park is 15 minutes’ drive away. That’s not forgetting the 100 acres of countryside, woodland trails and school horses, pigs, chicken, sheep and goats on site. Got a pony or horse of your own? Handily, the site has short-term accommodation available for both, great if you need an overnight stay before a show. If not, you can jump into the stirrups for the first time (or brush up on your skills) with horse riding and trekking run by the site’s school. If you haven't already plotted out your route, it may suit you to put your faith in the surrounding bridleways and footpaths that head deeper into the Salisbury Plain. Perhaps call in at one of several supermarkets, pubs, restaurants or cafés in the local town within 15 minutes’ walk of the site (the rail here also has direct links to London Paddington). As this site is relatively new to the game, there are basic facilities around the site (and some not yet up and running), including wifi in the reception area. ​

What customers say

This campsite boasts stunning panoramic views and a prime spot for walking to Westbury's White Horse & paragliding. Guests rave about the friendly staff, clean facilities, and great atmosphere. Safari tents are spacious with decks. The cafe has good food, and the animals (horses, alpacas) are a hit. Minor cons: parking is separate from tents, and more dishwashing sinks are needed.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Really lovely, spacious campsite.
Kids loved the animals and lots of room to run around.
Facilities were clean and convenient, and nice little indoor area which would have been brilliant if we'd been unlucky with the weather.
Feels very rural but also has shops and attractions close by (Longleat, steam train)

Disliked Nothing!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Quiet, peaceful location. Our children loved the animals on site - goats, peacocks, alpacas and a tiny pony.
The shower facilities are great.
As it’s also an equestrian school, there were lots of ponies around, we were also able to organise a pony trek for our daughter, which she loved and the staff were great with her.

Safari tent

Liked Wonderful location; walking distance to Westbury's White Horse chalk carving.... sitting on the ridge, watching parascending and hang gliding.
A short walk to and from Westbury town centre (Not a lot there...but at least, it is still unspoilt)
Panoramic views ; so nice to sit in a field ...without a single other building in sight...with only farming land.
As an equestrian centre , pleasant watching the horse riding lessons.
The safari tent was a decent size ; great to have a decking area to sit on.
Good choice of food at the on-site cafe.
Hot showers ; a few portaloos at the safari tent field.
Nice to have a separate lounge area, to sit in in bad weather.
All staff friendly and helpful.

Local attractions

From sifting through flea markets around the Pulteney Bridge to touring the Roman baths and climbing Bath Abbey’s tower… Bath (35 minutes’ drive) has plenty of places for a historical outing. Which museum will you choose? Fashion Museum Bath (35 minutes), The Holburne Museum (half an hour) and its gardens or the No. 1 Royal Crescent (35 minutes)? Another city within reach, Salisbury (45 minutes) is well-known for its medieval cathedral and the Magna Carta but it also has museums, escape rooms, punting, artist studios or bicycle hire if you’d like a leisurely pedal around. Longleat (15 minutes) likes to show off its variety of things to do, too. There’s the Longleat Hedge Maze (20 minutes) if you’re willing to muddle your way through, the big cats of the safari park or the pleasure gardens of the Elizabethan house. Impressed by the architecture? Then, you may want to wonder a little over the remains of Old Wardour Castle (40 minutes), its grotto and spiral staircase, or Nunney Castle’s ruined tower and moats (25 minutes).
