Stayed for 3 nights, 2 adults and 2 children (aged 6 and 2).
Upon arrival we were quickly checked in by friendly helpful staff and given a useful info pack on the area. Further staff then showed us to our field where we could pick our pitch from those available.
In all dealings we had with the staff they were excellent, friendly and very helpful. The security guard carries out regular patrols around the site throughout the night and quickly asks anyone making too much noise and causing a disturbance to tone things down. If only other sites were as diligent.
The toilet and shower facilities are superb, very clean and modern.
This is a very big site spread over several fields, with each one having its own toilets/showers and play areas. The play areas are like the other facilities here, superb, very well kept.
Despite being a large site and despite being full we never had to queue for toilets/showers/washing up sinks etc.
On site takeaway and supermarket are great (proper chips at the takeaway, not frozen fries you get at a lot of places) and the prices are good.
Access to the beach can be a bit of a trek if walking, especially with little ones and lots of kit (picnic bag, buckets spades etc). That said for £2.50 you can drive your car onto the beach and park all day, well worth it.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, couldn't fault anything and will certainly return again. Highly recommended.
We stayed for a short break (Fri-Mon) & would have liked to have stayed longer.
We arrived on site and at reception were met with smiling, friendly faces. Staff gave us lots of useful local information.
We were shown to our field (No dog 2) by a helpful chap where we could choose an available pitch.
Great field, pitch large & well sheltered. Fabulous toilet/shower block a couple of minutes away.
Drinking water taps are plenty and a short stroll from where ever you are.
Site is huge and there are several different adventure playgrounds dotted around in each field for the kids.
Plenty of pegs on the fishing lakes. We didn't do too bad - carp, roach, bream & eel (much to our little ones delight!)
Shop & take away very reasonably priced. The meals in the restaurant were huge!
Seagull Inn (10 min walk away) was a great venue but packed out. We didn't get any where to sit on our visits as 2/3 of the venue is adults only seating which I felt was little unfair. We did get to see some great entertainment though.
Brean leisure park was pretty good. During the weekend there was a market & car boot and we managed a few bargains. Kids enjoyed the rides (wristbands the best way to go though) Tokens for rides are 50p each and decent rides take 4+ tokens!
Pony/horse rides on the beach were great value. £2 for a short trek or £8 for 3 miles. Kids loved this!
All in all a great chilled break enjoyed by myself, husband and daughters (aged 13 & 6)
We are already planning our next visit to Northam Farm - very highly recommend it!
We spent a full week at this superb caravan site.On arrival we were greeted by helpful,friendly staff who gave us information regarding all amenities. We were then shown to our pitch and told we could pick wherever we wanted within the premier area.
Toilets and showers were 5 star without a doubt.50p for a six minute shower with lovely hot water.
On-site cafe was extremely good and quite cheap too.
Whole campsite was very clean just a shame the grass is so dry but that's the weather.
The Seagull pub serves good food and excellent entertainment !
The beach is excellent.Everything is within walking distance.
The children's playgrounds are dotted everywhere and they are all amazing, well kept,safe etc.
Just returned home from a weeks holiday in Breen and a stay at Northam Farm we received a warm welcome and were escorted to our pitch which was hard standing & a very good size.
Northam Farm is a large site & with it being school holidays very busy the kids play areas were well used,we found the site to be clean & tidy the toilet block we used was kept clean although the showers were not the best we`ve used and cost 50p but okay.
The on site cafe/chippy were good value & the food we had was nice,the shop was not over priced,there is also a small camping shop in reception where you can acquire the basics.
Overall we enjoyed our stay the site is just a short stroll from the sandy beach & same from bBreen leisure park the road through Breen can get very busy, there isn`t that much to do in Breen itself but there are plenty of places to visit in Somerset reception has all the leaflets.
On arrival the site looked like a lot of other seaside commercial sites which we have visited but with very few static units. The site has lovely lakes for fishing and some nice dog walks where my children also enjoyed feeding the horses left over carrots and apples.
The showers were well laid out and warm and there were lots of cubicles for washing. There was also a good room for bathing babies and a bath which is grest for kids who don't like showers. There are lots of water points which means you never have to walk very far with heavy carriers and the shop was well stocked and reasonable prices. You could also get cashback without buying anything for just 50p. The beach is clean and accepts dogs and is an easy walk away from the site.
The downside of this site was you had to pay for the showers and baths and had no control over the temperature or amount of water in the bath. The toilets very quickly became very dirty after they had been cleaned. The service in the shop was often slow. The play area for the children was covered in bits of cans from teenagers pulling them apart and they were along way away from our pitch so our children couldn't really use it.
Just returned from Northam Farm, I am a firm believer that your welcome upon arrival sets the standard of the park, Arrived at 5 ish Friday night to a wonderful reception and a speedy check in, we were given a myriad of information about the local area and amenities.
We were escorted to our pitch in 8 Acre field, the pitches are a good size for the tent and the car, there was a decent size playpark only 25m away which was perfect for the kids to play in while we set up the tent.
The Toilet blocks are immaculate and one of the best we have used in a few years camping, the on site shop was reasonably priced and well stocked, the on site chippy was cheap and very tasty for a quick meal.
I would rate this park in the top 3 I have stayed at ever, so much so we are going back in August.
No complaints and you couldn't ask for a friendlier service across the whole park.
When staying in Brean previously we have always used a neighbouring site which was full when we wanted to book. After checking reviews of Northam Farm we decided to pay a visit. We were not disappointed. Check in was friendly and we were directed well to our field where we could choose a pitch. All the pitches were good sizes and the field was well sheltered by surrounding trees.
The toilet/shower block was a short stroll from the field and was clean at all times. This was quite a busy weekend but there were ample toilets and showers along with privacy wash cubicles.
There is a shop on site which was not too badly priced for a site shop and again was friendly. The cafe/take away was good value. We had a lovely breakfast for £3.00 each and one evening stopped off for mini fish and chips at £1.99, this was definitely mini but lovely and good value.
All the fun of Brean is just a flat three quarter mile walk. All in all I was more than happy on this site and would definitely return. I also found it very reasonable as we paid just £12.75 for two adults, two children and a pup tent as extra.
We had hard standings though this was not a problem as we were only staying two nights so no awnings.
This place is big, very big. Having said that it is also really friendly. All the staff were great.
Check in was friendly and helpful, staff escorted us to our pitch. There appear to be wardens in each field. Staff also drive around the site which is kept very clean indeed (I guess because of the gulls, hence the reason they were not a problem).
The facilities were clean and new, roads excellent, pitches immaculate.
Fishing ponds actually had some fish in them and the shop was a Premier priced pretty close to our local one here.
There are children's play areas dotted in the various fields in the campsite.
We did not try the on site take away, though it looked OK.
The site is within walking distance of Brean Sands and the Brean Pleasure park. A local tackle dealer and very decent caravan shop are within a mile or so if you turn tight out of the site and reception has a few odds and sods (well a few,lots actually).
As usual our fellow campers were friendly and, surprisingly given the size of the site, the only real noise came from the tented area at night and this was not for long. Anyone causing other campers hassle, beware, you will be removed promptly. It happened when were there to a group in a tent and we'd heard that last year someone spotted someone possibly selling/using drugs, they were off in less than an hour.
Only down side was our friends (and a few others) having their tents or awnings burgled during the first night. Our friends car keys were taken and the car gone through though I think it was the contents not the car they were after (at night there is a locked gate across the entrance which is manned). In all the years both our families have been camping this is a first and talking to the police this site is very rarely hit like this. Both on site security and the local police were there in no time.
Next morning the owner turned up in person for a chat and to make sure everything was all right. Lovely lady.
This would not put us off going back, it's just one of those things I guess and we never felt unsafe at all (though night 2 did have a few booby traps and trip wires set up).
A lovely spread out site with very friendly staff. We had a hard standing near to a spotless toilet block which was cleaned on a very regular basis. As we have no pets we were on a non dog field but there were plenty of spaces in other fields that allowed dogs.
The only thing I think that would add to the park would be the addition of all service pitches as both being disabled it was hard to fetch water etc. Saying that there were plenty of taps around the park.
Entertainment facilities were just along the road, but there was a nice quality take away at the entrance. A good standard park which was good value for money.
What can I say,... What a beautiful site, excellent hardstanding pitches in the 8 acre field, the best we have seen in our 7 years of campervanning, great clean facilities... Ok it costs 20p to wash your hair in special sinks, 50p for a shower and £1 for a bath but there are plenty of normal washing facilities that are free including your dishwashing water.
Brilliant dog walk, great kids play parks, the shop is well priced as is the take away and cafe and the sea gull pub which is a nice 10 min easy stroll away was more than good, clean and friendly.
We usually use the caravan club site in this location but having just come back from here are already planning our next trip to this site. We could not fault this site at all and would recommend it to anyone and brean leisure park only a short stroll away was excellent for our 3 yr old who loved every minute, would recommend getting the £9.99 wristband for the tots great value for money as buying tokens for the rides will soon mount up to nearly treble this.
I have visited this site 5 times so far within 3 years and cannot fault it. Brilliant location to brean sands,
Free fishing on site, takeaway on site, playground, seagull pub 10min walk away with brilliant entertainment
Spotlessly clean toilet and shower block, level ground for caravans, very good price £13.25 a night for 2 adults 2 children with electric hook up in may.
First camping trip so nothing to compare it to. We borrowed a tent and escaped for the weekend. The site is neat clean and tidy staff friendly and helpful the shower block etc immaculate. Was so impressed we came home and bought a tent returning two weekends later with the children ! There are playgrounds sited around the park but most of the time the children were happy to watch the rabbits that run around the edges of the fields
Normally stay at a CL in Weston but was fully booked and we only wanted somewhere to stay whilst visiting family so booked Northan farm. At £23 for the 2 nights, thought it was very reasonable. When I arrived and saw how big and full the campsite was, I was mortified as I like CL's, but how wrong I was. The checking in was excellent and were shown to our pitch, we also wanted an adjacent pitch for family arriving later with their caravan and were told to park our car on the free pitch. Even though the park was huge, we did not feel that it was busy, pitches were large, excellent toilet block facilities, yes you need 50p for a shower but it did give you ample enough time to enjoy a hot shower. Facilities were always clean when I visited them.
Plenty of play areas which I though were excellent and were locked at night so kids could not hang out. There was also a bigger play area away from the caravans for older kids. Excellent dog walk which was fenced off from the campsite, but beware there is a stream running along side which our dog found to his pleasure and jumped in. Menu looked good for the restaurant and take away but did not use it, had a take away from a Chinese just down the road, (out of campsite and turn right).
As we were not sightseeing, we did not go far, walked to pleasure park and went on beach. Considering this is not my type of campsite, I thought it was excellent and would definitely return again.
What a fantastic site! I haven't been camping since I was little and have nightmare memories of spider infested dingy shower blocks!
This was a spur of the moment decision to take my kids away for a couple of days and I have to say I'm so glad I went here first. The kids loved it they didn't argue once, which is a first!
The actual site was lovely and I felt safe enough to let the kids explore on their bikes (they're never usually out of my sight) around the field we were on. The children's play area was fantastic and thankfully shut at 9.
Staff were very helpful and showed me to my pitch which was a very generous size. I noticed as well that it was not noisy, you could hear some people talking, but it wasn't loud, people were generally quite courteous, same in the mornings as well.
Washing facilities were very clean and spacious, showers were 50 pence but I usually managed to shower both of my boys for 50p. I used the baby facilities for my toddler which were free.
Site shop was surprisingly cheap, I was expecting to get ripped off but prices were very competitive.
I cant believe how cheap it was to stay here as well in August, I think it was about £23 per night, obviously this is height of summer (or not with the weather this year!)
Beach is close by and leisure park is just down the road.
My only gripe would be not necessarily about the site but the amount of dog mess that was around! On some fields I constantly had to watch so my kids didn't fall in any - NOT GOOD. I just wish dog owners would be more responsible!
Over all apart from this VERY pleased and definitely going back!
On arriving the reception staff was very welcoming and friendly. Here we were told to drive towards our field and we would be met by the warden who would show us to our pitches. As we needed 3 pitches and wanted them all together there was a choice of two areas. We chose the one out of the way.
Ground was flat and hardly any boulders in the ground so pegs went straight in.
BATHROOM & TOILETS:
Was very clean and there was always a cleaner about - even at early hours in the morning. What I found very handy was there were separate wash cubicles which you could use if you wanted to have a wach and brush teeth etc. The showers were 50p for about 6-7 mins. Found the section you get undressed/dressed in to be wet so I wore flip flops to keep my feet dry. There is plenty of cubicles so never had to queue.
There is also toddler rooms, which my son and my friends daughter enjoyed using. In here there is a place to bath babies and change them. Also there are baths which cost £1, didn’t use these so can’t comment.
We were in field 3 which was quite a walk away from the toilets, especially for young children that can’t wait too long to run to the loo.
ENTERTAINMENT:
There was no entertainment on site, so found we stayed at our pitch as there was a big party of us. The nearest entertainment is about 20-30 min stroll away.
LAUNDRY AREA:
Used this once but found it quite expensive. 3KG machines were £3 each and the 6KG ones were £6. Dryers were 50p for 10 mins (we put about £1.50 in to completely dry the clothes). We were impressed that they had irons which were 20p for 6 mins. They are strict on the rules in this area, which are no eating and drinking and that goes for small children too. And that you have to stay with your washing, or once the cycle is finished the cleaner will put it into black bags.
SECURITY:
We were given slips to put in the car and on the tent. When going off site and then returning the slip was checked to make sure that you are using the site for camping etc. Also the warden did regular checks around the site, to make sure everything is OK. They even do this right through the night.
