We were having difficulty finding a site leaving it a little late to book for bank hols. But were fitted in very obligingly at Blackmore. Owners were very helpful and friendly shop has every kind of caravan part for sale. Entrance to site is very deceptive folow instructions carefully and don,t drive too fast or you will miss entrance as site is behind a garage which is not mentioned. The only fault we found was with the shower facilities which are very primitive with not much privacy to change and dry, which is a great pity as everything else is great

Well its the 26th of August and we have just returned home from the Blackmore Vale campsite after a lovely four day break.
It was a bit of a last minute decision to go camping with our family a few days for the bank holiday weekend and everywhere local to us was completely full but after a lot of phoning around we came across this site which kindly squeezed us in at short notice.
The owners were fantastic and would do anything to help. During our stay we saw a lot of the owners who frequently visit the site on bikes to check all is ok and to have a chat which was a real nice personal touch.
The site was very clean and the toilets and showers were lovely.
This is a real chilled out site where you can relax and spend time with your family and enjoy the wonderful scenery. Everyone else on the park felt the same way too and a quick trip to the loo often ended up as a half hour trip due to everyone being so chatty.
At first my 13 year old daughter thought there was not going to be enough to do but after we set up she enjoyed it so much just by playing with me outside and plenty of barbecues etc.
We are definitely going back and cant wait to do so.

We had 9 days here at begining of summer holidays with EHU.
Good points:-
Small site with VERY friendly helpful staff.
Clean site. Good size pitches neat and flat. Wooden picnic tables can be used if vacant just go and get one.
Very well priced.
Free hot showers - Toilets where clean.
Bad points:-
- Very loud traffic noise most of the night.
- campsite is behind a garage that is on a main road. We did not feel unsafe and you do eventually drop off.
- Toilets - although these where very clean - why o why does the womens toilet need to have a timer on the light switch. A few times I was sat on the toilet and the light went out. The mens and the shower rooms do not have timers.
- Why is there no washing up basin / bowls in the mens toilets / showers. Men can use the one outside washing up sink but women stand in queue for this rather than using the inside one - it's beyond me.
- The showers are very out dated and could benfit from a steam clean to brighten up the tiles and a lick of paint on the ceiling. Water pressure was variable as was the temp.
-As only two womens showers there are queues at busy times also if someone shuts the door some people do not like to put there head around and see if there is a spare cubicle they would rather stand outside. Again it's beyond me.
- The shower's do not offer much privacy - to get dressed/undressed you have to get out the shower and stand in the washing area.
Lots of places to visit in the area - really kept us busy.
Steam trains.
Longleat was good value as you could keep going back with your ticket until you had completed all the shows etc.
