Has anybody found a decent pub backyard site near the m5 bristol area, we like to stop off overnight on way down south and these tend to be cheaper and have the advantage of having a pub close by. we used to use one on the a38 which had a field at rear and charged about £5.00 per night, but i have noticed they don;t do it now. hope you can help

Somerset view is just off the m5 near bridgewater. Not a pub but it is cheap. Mixed reviews on it and I don't know it myself - I just came across it on a "for sale" site------------- Steve

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=3214 - reviews are very old, perhaps someone may have been more recently, but you can also follow the link to the sites own webpage.
When travelling up country we stop at this site at Slimbridge http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=3137

Hortham Farm is very close to the M4/M5 interchange, obviously not a pub, but there is one just down the main road (A38?), going towards Bristol, one of the Hungry Horse chain so reasonable cheap food and Sky tv. The site costs £8 per night, unless it has gone up but won't be much more.

I'd recommend The George Inn (Riverside Caravan Park) at Cambridge...(Just north of Slimbridge,off J13).
Really easy and straight forward to find(..I can't stand going to far "off course" and having to "faff about" when using a stopover... )
We stopped over on our way down to Watchet on the August B'Holidy..and I don't recall it being overly expensive...
Good beers & food...
(They are listed on here..I just don't know how to put a link in! )

If you are heading to Cornwall - Minnows CC site at Sampford Peverell is on a towpath with short walk to the local pub. It is not far from the above mentioned site ^^^^ at Burlescombe (poachers pocket).

There is a pub just outside Cannington on the A39 which has a campsite at the back - it called The Cottage Inn, would be better suited if you were heading along the north coast though.
Somerset view is an ideal spot, just over 5 mins from J24.
Wendy....am I reading it right and the campsite is for sale, if so, which agent did you see it with?
Pete.
