Although I will score the site 8/10 I was a little disappointed. After reading he reviews, most of which score 8/9 out of 10 I expected more.
Very well maintained site with good size pitches. EHU on each pitch and TV booster. (cables made the place look untidy)
The lane to the site is about 2 miles of just larger than single track. There is little in the way of shops in the area and so a 15 minute drive to Warminster or Frome is needed. There are a couple of pubs within 10 minute drive.
On arrival the staff were not rude or offensive just not welcoming.
We have a 2 year old and so a park to entertain him is a must. The children's area on site is again to a high standard but small. 10 minutes on the swing and a further 5 on the slide and he was bored.
The shower block is again to a nice standard, closes for 90 minutes at lunchtime.
Camping on site gains free entry to the house and grounds at Longleat. The weather was very poor so we didn't bother with the grounds, but a stroll around them in the sunshine may have made a visit to he campsite a more enjoyable experience.

We have stayed at Longleat several times previously. We still found the site to be immaculate in its grounds and maintenance, and the reception and check in was just fine. The wardens were helpful and friendly enough when we had any contact with them. The pitches are large and the children (aged between 9 and 14) enjoyed the park and village green where they could play cricket and football.
The toilets are absoluetly immaculate, allthough there were a few queues in the mornings for the showers (only 4/5 persons in the queue)in the ladies. We don't mind waiting though.
The proximity to Longleat attractions is the real plus point for this site for us. We did the Tesco vouchers, which only cost £6 for a day pass where you could go in and out all day (if you had enough time!) Excellant value for money for £6 each. We all really enjoyed the day and loved the new Birds of Prey show.
The only negative this year is that last year we enjoyed very much being able to take long walks and cycle around the estate after the park had closed. It was peaceful and beautiful and the cycling and walking was amazing. We were also able to take the dog with us last year, but now new restrictions are in place, and you can no longer take your dog or cycle into the estate. We even had our bags searched whilst passing through the barrier, and were asked to show receipts for our stay at the site along with our day passes. Seemed a little extreme to us. It spoilt it a little for us I must admit.
That said, due to the kids having a ball at Longleat, we will stay again in 2013.

We arrived at this site on the back of a recovery truck, our clutch cable having broken a few miles up the road. The site staff couldn't have been more helpful or understanding, and what could have been a frustrated and worrying evening (we weren't sure if we could get repaired next day before travelling on), turned out to be a relaxed time on this wonderful site. Quiet and peaceful – only the sealions to disturb the silence! – excellent, very clean facilities.
We found the shop a bit limited in its supplies and accessible pubs all seemed a bit of a walk (though this might just have been us being wimps after a trying day). A fish and chip van visits the site, apparently, sadly not on the night we were there.
As non-Caravan Club members we paid £10 more for our pitch, but we would definitely come here again, not least to make the most of Longleat, next-door. A welcoming and relaxing site.

This site is in a great location & the perfect base for visiting Longleat - there is so much to do & see. The site facilities are the standard that you would expect from the Caravan Club - spotless & plentiful facilities, my only criticisms of the site would be too many signs telling you what to do & the speed at which to do it - we're on holiday, not at school, and the pitches are now so large that there is a sea of gravel with limited areas to sit on grass by your pitch, we have a small unit & it is lost on the pitch.
Please be aware that the Longleat Estate have altered some of the rules so you will find some changes, do check where you intend to go & can you return at night - bear in mind that a National Cycle route does run through the park so you should be able to return from The Bath Arms on bicycle, but other routes will not be accessible by car. Dog walking rules have changed also.
On the positive side - very beautiful part of the world. Lots to do & see, good pubs locally, cycle & walk to several. If you stay with children, the site is perfect for doing bits of the park, getting back to base to recharge your batteries, then going back into the park - you will have a great time. There is also a good playground on the site.

A wonderful site - all the usual CC advantages - immaculately kept, excellent toilet blocks and very friendly and helpful wardens. A one night stay became three, partly because of the site itself and partly because of the Longleat estate, which we loved. Plenty of shady pitches which is important for us because of the dogs and it was particularly hot. The site dog-walk is great. Value for money was quite good (£20. 30 all-in with two dogs) with the added advantage of a discount on admission to the estate.

Wow, what a fantastic introduction to the world of camping! We took our motorhome on its maiden voyage, and this was the first site we stopped at.
I fear that nowhere else will ever be able to live up to its standard, that's the problem! Immaculate site, all gravelled and landscaped, set in stunning surroundings.
You can hear owls hooting and lions roaring at night - does it get better than that?!
The toilet/shower block was superb, the pitch was roomy, and I thought it was really good value for money too.
I wasn't a Caravan Club member, but having seen the superiority of this site, I'm gonna be!
