Shiplate Farm Fishery – Motorhome Stay
We stayed at Shiplate Farm Fishery and really enjoyed it. It’s a lovely, peaceful spot with beautiful views over the lakes — exactly the kind of place you go to slow down and breathe a bit. Very quiet at night and felt safe and relaxed, which we always appreciate when travelling in the motorhome.
The pitches are well spaced and the site is kept tidy. The facilities are actually great: two toilets and a shower, all in the same building as the reception. There’s also a food-prep area with a microwave, fridge and kettle, plus tea and coffee provided, which was a really nice touch and not something you always find on smaller sites.
Sue, the owner, is incredibly welcoming and genuinely goes out of her way to make you feel at home — nothing is too much trouble for her. She even came over and dropped off half a dozen fresh eggs from her own brood, which went down a treat. We’d mentioned we’d popped into Burnham-on-Sea to use the laundrette and she told us we could have used her facilities instead, which just shows how thoughtful and accommodating she is.
It’s not a busy holiday park, which for us was a big plus — no noise, no crowds, just countryside calm. Weston-super-Mare and the surrounding areas are close enough if you fancy heading out for supplies or a wander, but the site itself feels nicely tucked away.
Overall, a great stopover or short break if you’re looking for peace, scenery and a genuinely friendly welcome. We’d happily return
