We have just come back from the most fabulous 4 night break. What a lovely site, all pitches very spacious we had number 3 perfect if you have budding footballers as it was opposite a small ball area. The facilities on site are spotless and the wardens are very friendly and helpful. Turn left out of the site and a few yards down the road is Longleat house and the many attractions on offer. Turn right out of the site and appox 1.5miles you will come to the White Hart Inn which is very nice too. We tried to book for early May but as you would expect for such a wonderful site it is fully booked. Get the Passport ticket online and you save another 15% off the price great value for money. It certainly is a must.

Well what can I say, it is a Caravan Club site and they are always wonderful, this one is particularly so in that it is situated just behind Longleat House and if that wasn't enough you have the sound of lions, wolves, etc. in the background how many places do you get that !
There lots of organised things to do e.g. look around the house, the safari park etc. But if you want to do your own thing you are free to go for long walks around the grounds. Nearby is Shearwater which is a large man made lake where you can just sit and watch the yachtsand ( native ) wildlife.
The staff were friendly and welcoming and we were pleased to find that the site rules were enforced thus making it better for everyone, I wish I could say the same for all sites.
The nearest towns are Warminster which is a garrison town but very pleasant with good shops or just over the border into Somerset and about the same distance is Frome a historic place with good independant shops 5 supermarkets inc. M & S Sainsburys and Asda, worth exploring if you can tear yourself away from Longleat but be warned it is VERY hilly.

What a wonderful site, very large pitches. You can walk into longleat park from a back entrance, turn left at the site gate 150yds on foot and you're in longleat grounds for free. A must for the kids, there is so much to see and do it takes longer than a day to fully appreciate all the attractions. You can either buy a pass for the attractions or pay individually for your favourites.
There is also a wonderful dog walk on this site, and we were visited by the local ducks who come to your van door to be fed.
The wardens are really helpful and informative, we originally booked for 1 night but stayed for 4 even though we didn't have any kids.
There are two large toilet/shower blocks with staggered cleaning times so you're never caught out. This must be one of the best Caravan Club sites.

This has to be one of the best approaches to a CC site. Once waved through the barrier control at Longleat the splendour of Longleat House and Estate opens up before your eyes. It is quite a feeling towing your outfit past the front door of Longleat House.
The site is located immediately adjacent to the attractions Longleat has to offer and lies alongside the lake where they keep the Sealions which you can clearly hear from the site.
A well appointed CC site, with 3 toilet blocks, set amongst the Oaks and a reception that sells a bit more than the norm. All the amenities are kept to a very high standard by the busy team of wardens, and on a full site in October they never struggled to cope. TV reception is poor and the surrounding Oaks make getting a satellite signal pretty difficult, TV hook ups are however provided on the pitches (they sell the leads in reception if you don’t have one).
The majority of the pitches are hard standing, and only pitches of this type are used early or late in the season, so rock pegs are required.
For food shopping and fuel Asda is only a few miles away on the outskirts of Frome. The town of Frome itself has an Argos, Woolies, Boots and WH Smith’s.
Longleat has so much to offer you feel little need to leave the estate, everything is within walking distance, and if you don’t fancy taking the car through the Safari, the Safari bus stop is just outside the site entrance.
A superb club site set in impressive surroundings and well cared for by the team of Wardens. Little wonder it’s nearly always booked up.

This site is obviously a base to visit the house, grounds and safari park of Longleat. We stayed here for 4 nights and had plenty of time to visit everything, (get a passport ticket, a real saving if your wanting to get everything in!) and leave a day to look in wonder at Stonehenge that was only about 15 miles'ish away. A large supermarket is only a couple of miles down the road but the shop on site was great, the best we have come across so far.well done to the wardens!
I'm having to remind myself that reviews are about the sites and not the people staying on them. Because of the location and time we visited we knew that a lot of children would be staying the same time, (we took a 15 year old and a 9 year old ourselves,) and perhaps we have been lucky so far but the behavior of some of the children was disgusting. Perhaps you may be able to hear the sea lions but we could only hear screaming while water fights took place, screaming while running between the pitches, and more general screaming.
Because of this I wouldn't visit again at this time of year but outside peak times it would have been a lovely place to be.

The best site that I have ever stayed on. I am a CC member and have stayed on some of their other sites.
Access was easy which is always a bonus when towing a 26ft twin axle. As I was towing without my husband this always makes me a little anxious.
Chose a pitch but struggled a little to park the van, the Warden came around and offered to pitch, which he did. This was gratefully received.
The site was immaculate and child friendly. My daughter could safely ride her bike around as all vehicles kept to the "dead slow" (unlike other sites I have stayed on).
The facilities were second to none, the showers were fantastic!
Obviously having the safari park so close was lovely, I genuinely woke to the sound of lions and sea lions (& crows and cows too)!
Taking your bike is a bonus. Big thank you to the wardens for a wonderful stay, will definitely be back next year.
