  • Peaceful adults-only Wiltshire caravan site near Chippenham
  • Half an hour’s drive to Bath, 10 minutes to Lacock and five to the M4
  • Security barrier and dog-exercise field; pub five minutes’ walk
Neatly manicured grounds and lots of greenery dividing the pitches into bays are just a taster of what's in store at adults-only Plough Lane Caravan Site, near Chippenham in Wiltshire. Thanks to its proximity to the M4 (five minutes’ drive), it’s also thoroughly easy to access (no reversing down narrow lanes for tractors here) as well as being close to the southern Cotswolds and gorgeous historic Bath. The site is secured with a barrier and all pitches have electric hook-ups, water and waste water disposal points. Carefully maintained facilities include a heated shower block with hot water, spacious cubicles and hair dryers, plus a launderette with an iron and dryer. Brought the dogs on holiday too? Let them have an off-lead runaround in the designated exercise field. Looking for inspiration for days out? Have a nose through the books in the information area, which also has books and DVDs to keep you entertained on any rainy days. Although it's on the edge of open countryside, the site still offers lots of local amenities: you can walk to stops on bus routes to Chippenham and the Cotswolds town of Malmesbury within five minutes, and if you like the sound of a pint, there are a couple of pubs within a five-minute drive or a 25-minute walk of the site. Going down the self-catering route? Pick up supplies from the supermarket on the outskirts of Chippenham (five minutes’ drive).

What customers say

This adult-only site gets a thumbs-up for generous, flat pitches and decent facilities. Many love the tranquil vibe and handy spot near shops and transport. While some thought it was neat, others saw a few bits needing work and older facilities. Nearby road noise is mentioned often, but most reckon it's fine.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Not much

Disliked Unkempt site, very scruffy pitches, there were lots of weeds growing through all hard standing pitches (some sound a foot tall). We had to clear a load of thorny branches from our grass area to make it usable. The shower block had slugs roaming around and didn’t feel particularly clean. The lady on reception was not personable at all and to be honest quite abrupt and rude. The images on pitch up and fb are well outdated. Don’t seem like the site is cared for.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Convenient location in sheltered countryside

Disliked Information on website outdated- local pub closed some time ago for example.
Site office closed early so not able to access any local information guides as these were all locked in office. Overall site a little uncared for considering early season and welcome from site management was curt and rushed. WiFi not available throughout the site - would have liked to be told this on arrival.

Local attractions

Fancy a nose around the southern Cotswolds? Lacock (10 minutes’ drive) is a rather lovely place to start, with lots of Georgian cottages and a riverside abbey where scenes from Harry Potter were filmed. Heading north is Castle Combe (15 minutes), often called the prettiest village in England), with a medieval market cross and a sprinkling of cosy tea rooms. Go way back in time to marvel at prehistoric man’s ingenuity with a visit to the stone circles and informative visitor centre at Stonehenge (50 minutes), or get up close to standing stones at Avebury. On the way between these two landmarks, stop off to admire 19th-century engineering skills at Caen Hill Locks (both half an hour) near Devizes, where a series of 29 locks rise up a steep hillside. Another local must-see Longleat (40 minute), with its popular safari tours to spot lions, tigers and giraffes, but if your interests are more city-based, head straight to Bath (half an hour) for its indie shopping and regal architecture, or nip up the M4 to Designer Outlet Swindon (20 minutes) for some serious bargain hunting.
