Small Trees Campsite

A aimé Very quiet site with small fruit trees dotted all around. Spacious pitches with small play area for children.
Toilet block with two large showers spotlessly clean and chemical toilets and wash basins.
Washing up area with two large double sinks.
Would definitely return next year. Friendly helpful owner. No WiFi signal so be aware.

N'a pas aimé No chemical waste disposal area. But understand why there's not as it's only open for 2.5 weeks a year and a pop up site.
Would have liked a phone charging point.

A aimé Great hosts, all facilitaties very clean at all times. Great hot showers with good space.

Nice to chose your pitch and loads of space to choose from. My son loved playing on the swing it was a great place for kids to make friends.

Great location 10 minutes to Paultons.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you so much David!

A aimé • The toilets and shower are spotless and the owner cleaned regularly throughout our stay. Shower was hot! A mirror in the shower would be useful.
• The size of the space means you can pitch up without feeling crowded
• Kids loved the tire swing!
• Free coffee and tea in the morning (although I was too late getting a coffee so be quick!)
• I was able to buy homemade Damson jam which is so yummy.
• The owner was so lovely. She was working hard throughout our stay to clean.
•Perfect if you are going to Paultons Park or Harold Hillier Gardens.
•Stars, stars and more stars!

N'a pas aimé • The toilets do have a strong smell due to the chemical toilets. BUT we went over a bank hol when it was very hot and very busy. The owner was trying her best to use air fresheners etc but it's really difficult. I could manage with it and many people did but just a heads up if that kind of thing is an issue for you.
• Queues at the washing station because the tap to fill up people's tanks would shut off the other taps so that caused some confusion and a bit of a delay. This water is cold. Again not an issue for us but some other campers aren't so patient.
• No internet signal and no WiFi (again good for us but not for all)

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks so much for your review and lovely comments. It was lovely having you stay.

The water in the sink taps was being affected by refilling the shower tanks for the morning shower, it was unfortunate timing you were trying to wash up while we did this. we will make sure we fill these at a more convenient time.

Toilets are always a struggle with heat and a busy weekend but we learn every year and hope to finally understand the system next year!

Pleased you loved the jam!

A aimé A quiet and rural field site. Loved that there are only 30 units allowed and you had freedom to pitch wherever you wanted. Basic toilet and shower facilities and water available. Lovely touch offering free tea and coffee in the morning. Tiny camp stall selling cans of drink too. Really cute. Would stay again.

N'a pas aimé Although toilets were clean and flushable they did smell pretty bad but guessing as the site is only open in August they are just temporary type loos. Shower was clean and well set up but again pretty al fresco.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks for the great review! Yes, just temporary toilets so emptied every few days over the 2.5 weeks. Unfortunately over bank holidays we can’t get them emptied until the Tuesday and the heat didn’t help. Every year we learn a little bit more!

A aimé Hosts were LOVELY.
Peaceful - lots of space. Flat.
Showers were clean and hot.
Pizza night was also great touch. As was the free tea/coffee.

N'a pas aimé Toilets are a little cramped - but means you get friendly with other campers chatting as you go by.

A aimé Small Trees was a really lovely campsite. They give you plenty of space. Toilets fine and showers nice. Couple who run it are lovely as was everyone we met there. A really lovely vibe and the pizza in the evening was a nice touch.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks so much Katy! So pleased you liked it and got to enjoy the pizza.

A aimé Loved our stay here - didn’t want to leave today! Really beautiful view, pizza night was delicious, showers big and warm. Really loved it

N'a pas aimé The toilets were very dark, small and the smell really was overwhelming. It states playpark in the campsite add but it’s a toddler slide and 1 swing that all the kids argued over. Would be nice to have something else for the kids as they all seemed to gather round the 1 swing. Will be returning next year if toilets and playpark get upgraded - then it would be the perfect campsite

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Lucy, thanks for the review and glad you liked it.
We are a pop up of only 2.5 weeks and a field - facilities are minimal but adequate for the number of pitches.
The toilets have been completely overhauled and a lot of work has gone into them. The lighting we prefer to keep low so as to not ruin the star gazing for guests. The ad does say to bring a good torch. The smell unfortunately isn’t helped with a full campsite and very hot weekend, they are chemical toilets, I clean them multiple times a day so sorry they weren’t better.

Also, sorry children fought over the swing - something that has been a highlight for most kids visiting. We can’t have anything more due to insurance.

Thanks for staying!

A aimé Just spent 4 days there with the family was really nice and relaxing kids loved the rope swing aswell we will definitely be coming back thanks for having us ⛺️🏕️🔥

Réponse du gestionnaire : So lovely having you here. Thanks so much!

A aimé The hosts were really lovely and were available daily. They provided free tea and coffees every morning and were so helpful with any requests we had. Considering the size of the campsite the facilities were very good. Toilets were very clean and running hot water available for showers.

N'a pas aimé The field had quite a lot of poop, which we suspect may have been used for sheep prior to the campsite opening for the season. However, it didn’t smell and it had dried so didn’t bother us too much

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you! Yes, without rain this season unfortunately the dried sheep poop could not break down, we rolled and cleared as best we could. Thanks for staying!
