Date of Visit: June 2018 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: The swifties 20 reviews from this member

 Stayed 2 nights, Thursday and Friday. Lovely peaceful site. Liked the walk around the edge of the site. Staff friendly and helpful. Showers and toilets not ultra modern but who cares, nice and clean and plenty of hot water. Site neat and tidy, grass nice and short. Would stay again.

 Site was lovely when we turned up on Wednesday with the exception of a woman with a very loud foul mouth about 100 yards from us in the next paddock on a seasonal pitch. Now approaching bank holiday weekend and the site is full, unfortunately there are some very badly behaved children that ruin it, 2 children with golf clubs taking a swing at the gravel and smashing up the bushes and the parents watching them and saying nothing.

Other than that the site is brilliant and the dog walk is very good taking you around the edge of the site.

The staff are friendly and the facilities are kept clean although more facilities would be required around the site, not a problem for us as we use all the facilities in our caravan.

If you like peace and quiet then this site is not for you but I imagine it would be better out of holiday season which would be the only time we would return.

We normally use adult only sites and avoid the school holidays, now I know why.

 Lovely setting but rather disappointed with the toilets/showering facilities. We have stayed on smaller sites who charge less money and the facilities have been better than this site. There are a couple of blocks which both need modernising and for the number pitches there could do with being a few more blocks. We were in a touring caravan with our own toilet but I felt sorry for people in tents who had a long walk to the facilities.

Don't think we will be returning to this site.

 The web price list is not up to date, £10. 25 a night, (not £7. 25) + £5. 25 per adult + £4. 50 electric + £2 pet + £2. 5 Awning. This is a fairly big site, so can get noisy. It does have a good dog walk route, as below the dog-poo bins need emptying at least every other day Please! The Pub nearby is the Talbot, there is a bar on site £4+ a pint. Be carful of the shower block by reception, HOT showers turned off with wet fingers with a switch! The site is well kept, a good reception and shop. The Lakes, dead fish floating, a fisherman landing a fish said most have mutilated mouths on the fish, caught too many times. There is loads to do in the area, Bowood House, Atwell-Wilson motor museum, Chewell White Horse and Monument, the Locks/canal, Devises, Lacock, Avebury.

Reviewer: Dee and martinRV 3 reviews from this member

 Love this site so quiet and tranquil

Site clean and well kept so are the shower and toilets

Staff so friendly and helpful

Only one complaint the doggy doo bins

On the woodland overflowing and not been emptied in a long time,

The flies and the smell spoilt it for me

But hopefully this will be rectified

And yes we will return

 Stayed on this site over the Easter Break, very nice, quite too, nice large pitches with hard standing. Easy to fill and empty grey. The weather was dry and some sun, and not too busy so a peaceful break. The toilet are clean and there is gallons of lovely hot water. Reception staff friendly and knowledge always helpful. Would use again.

 Well see my comment from last year and add pygmy goats a nice touch otherwise situation normal still being nice to the spiders I swear there last year's webs. Urinal blocked for two days lovely paddles had by all, and still compromising on the loo paper even followed the cleaner in as she left and several rolls were missing.

Reviewer: Marley37 4 reviews from this member

 What a pity we have visited this site for a number of years and I swear the cobwebs in the communial block are the same ones.

The cleaner wants to be sent down the road and a new one employed not replacing toilet rolls and leaving both dispensers empty is unforgivable especially after being told to replace them by reception.

The disabled facilities sadly need completely upgrading in both blocks they are not fit for purpose no drop down rail and troublesome locks which if you have mobility issues are not ideal.

That said the site is in a lovely location and the reception staff need medals for all the running around after the cleaner.

Reviewer: Jolf 3 reviews from this member

 I stayed here for 3 nights with my wife and 2 children (9 & 4)

I'd been before a couple of years ago and enjoyed it, so thought I'd go back.

I'm not interested in the fishing side of things at this site, I went more for the space available for the children to play.

Stayed in 'field 5', which is a good size, and they put the units around the edge of the site, so there is a large area for everybody to have room to play in the middle.

Although it was during the school holidays, you never felt as though anybody was on top of you.

There is an adequate play park for the children, though we didn't use it much.

The toilet/shower blocks are ok. Floors get a bit muddy, and although there are mops, people don't seem to clean up after themselves, so maybe they need cleaning a bit more regularly.

The staff at the shop/reception couldn't be more helpful and friendly, they really are a credit to the site.

The shop has a few bits and bobs that you'd be likely to forget, at reasonable prices.

I re-froze some ice packs at 10p each, also I charged my mobile phone for £1.

The only issue we had was with a large party of Polish Anglers.

They were over the opposite side of the field, and on the first night they arrived they were up (drunk)shouting at the top of their voices until about 3am.

I understand that people in groups want to have a bit of a laugh, and to be honest, I wouldn't have minded if they'd quietened down at midnight. I'm a heavy sleeper, and struggled to get asleep with the noise.

Mentioned it to the lady at reception and she couldn't be more apologetic. She explained the site had recently lost their site warden in a tragic accident, and that she'd have a word.

In fairness, whatever she said obviously worked, as they were completely silent by about 10pm the following night.

I was impressed with how this little issue was dealt with, and I would definitely come back here.

 We visited here for 5 nights and found it to be a beautiful and quiet campsite although our pitch was quite hard to find but when we did find it we were more than happy with the location. The toilets were clean and the showers were powerful with lots of hot water although you did have to keep pressing them on for a decent length shower. This site has 3 large ponds 2 for fishing and 1 wildlife pond which sadly was fenced off so can't really be fully appreciated. There is also a hide which was locked and which could do with a revamp, as could a lot of the other things around the ponds such as a bridge that has fallen into the water and hasn't been mended. On the whole it was a lovely site. We saw a kingfisher, heron and loads of bats so as wildlife lovers it was a great site but with a bit after tlc could be a stunning site.
