 This campsite was chosen because of its proximity to little villages where my husband's ancestors had come from and it was an ideal base, not only for that but Stonehenge and so many other places.
It was on the edge of playing fields and I wondered about noise from this but there was none. The staff were very friendly but oh so busy when we arrived and for the length of our stay. They said a lot of people use it as a stop over for ferries.
The views of old Sarum were just as in the books, amazing and as I gazed at it I wondered about the people who had lived there. It is owned by English Heritage and is an easy off road walk from the campsite and even if you only walk on the surrounding embankment the views back over Salisbury are lovely and the Cathedral stands out really well from there.
The field and surrounding area is great for dog walking and children could play safely there too.
We went to the village of Kilmington to find the church where so many Laphams were born and seems to be a hot spot and then to the Deverills. I guess the distance between can only be about 5 miles or so but the difference in the landscape was amazing. The road from Mere (along the B3095) to the Deverills was a steep climb and the most amazing views towards the Salisbury area. We were at quite a height. Mere itself was a lovely little place and as we actually went wrong on our way back from the Deverills and ended up going along the B3089 to Wilton. What a great mistake. Lovely little villages and scenery. I would recommend going off the main roads as this is lovely country.

This is a lovely, open site with great views across the countryside. It is a grassy, well-kept site and is easy to access. There is no shelter and it was quite breezy while we were there but this aspect is what gives you the views. Nice sunsets too! As the details say, it is sloping but the pitches nearer the top of the site are almost level and we were easily able to level our 'van on pitch 38. The site is divided into two and the lower site does slope away a lot so at busy times it may be hard to avoid a sloping pitch. The facilities were modern and spotless. One morning I did find the shower very hot and only just bearable, there is no control over the temperature which is a shame but is often the case. The staff are all friendly and when we needed a bit of extra help we were given time and expertise for which we were most grateful. Other people staying on the site were friendly too. The fish and chip van opens on Wednesday and Friday evenings, we bought chips to go with our steak! There are a few provisions available in the reception shop but a good Co-op is only 10 minutes walk away along the main road. The walk into Salisbury is easy enough, although to get to the cathedral took us around 40 minutes. The Salisbury sausage shop is a must, 60 varieties! including some 'non-pork' based varieties. They also sell pork steaks (delicious) and chicken breasts in various marinades. Waitrose is en route too and is an obvious boon though you have to carry everything back of course! There is also a Harvester pub within 10 minutes walk. We would certainly return to this site if we wanted to stay in this area again.

Lovely, friendly site. The wardens were cheerful and helpful. The other campers were all very cheery and sociable. Toilet block very clean. Showers were the push type and there were vanity units and toilets.
There is a playing field just outside the entrance for dog walking. It really is perfect for walking into Salisbury. It's a traffic free cycle/walking path all the way into Salisbury. I reckon it took us 30-40 minutes. Salisbury itself is lovely and the cathedral is stunning. Guess what you are allowed to take well behaved dogs into the cathedral!
Turn left out of the campsite and a ten minute walk brings you to the Old Sarum, which was the original site of Salisbury. Then William the Conquerer built a castle on the site. The views are lovely and you can take dogs in. (Unlike Stonehenge!).
We were in a motor home so it was perfect for getting about without a car.
Will definitely return.

Very well placed site for visiting Salisbury. Easy walk into town (20/30 mins) off the roads which was good and passes Waitrose (useful if you have a card!). The city itself was lovely too.
The setting for the site is great - just under Old Sarum castle - with very open views. Essentially it is two large fields so nothing special. Toilet facilities not the most modern but immaculately kept. The on site staff were excellent - could not have been more helpful and obliging.

This is about the forth time we have visited and as always the site is well kept and well run. There's always plenty of staff around who seem to be full of busy keeping the site clean and well maintained. Well positioned for a walk into Salisbury, a trip to the gardens at Heale House, Stonehenge or a walk around the Old Sarum.

To Find Site:- From Salisbury Ring Road take A345 towards Amesbury. Crossing two mini roundabouts grouped together watch out for sign to left to campsite in about a couple of hundred yards. Continue on site access road, with playing fields on right to campsite. The site gate is kept closed (but not locked) probably to deter non campers accessing the site. At busy times there is usually a member of staff on hand to open the gate otherwise it’s a DIY job! Pull forward to sign before going to reception.
Salisbury C&CC site is set in a semi urban environment but also has lovely views out over the surrounding countryside including the Old Sarum Hill Fort. It is open to members and non-members. We received a friendly welcome from the site staff. You are escorted to your pitch once your own preferences have been taken into account. The site has a two way slope from the reception down to the far end of the site although individual pitches are not too bad but will require a degree of levelling. Most of the 150 pitches are on grass although there are some which have an embedded plastic lattice set into grass to provide a more all-weather surface. There are limited tarmac site roads and pitches are arranged in rows across the grass and whilst the reality is there is plenty of room between pitches you can feel there is a lack of privacy with people walking through the units quite close to where you are sitting. Being a C&CC site not all pitches will have electricity but most do and they are rated at 16 amps and uses CEE17 blue connectors. Several fresh water and grey water points are placed at convenient places across the site.
The well designed motorhome drain point is near to reception, fresh water can be replenished from the adjacent service point. Chemical waste emptying points are at the main toilet block and behind reception. The site has two toilet blocks, the main one being situated about half way down the site. It is of an excellent quality. At the end of the block is a laundry room which also houses local information. The smaller block nearer to reception is only open at very busy periods although the dish wash area is open all the time. Reception sells a range of essentials like milk. Site wide WiFi is available and time can be purchased at reception or online. Its good value but you have to be aware that download limits apply. There are no children’s play facilities on site although older children have plenty of room in the adjacent park for ball games. There is a little light aircraft noise at certain times of day.
The main advantage of this site is the close vicinity to the City of Salisbury and as a result is quite popular with our Continental chums. The site will provide instructions for a pleasant walk into the city along the river. Alternatively there is a good bus service from the main road at the site entrance. Old Sarum, is within easy walking of the site and is under the control of English Heritage. For eating out there is a Harvester just up the road from the site. In Salisbury there is a multitude of eating places, we used the Market Inn which was very nice. For shopping there is a large Waitrose Food and Home which you pass on the walk mentioned above. In the centre there is a Sainsburys and a Tesco Metro

We arrived on the Saturday of the bank holiday weekend. The staff were very helpful and welcoming, explaining the facilities and other items. Most other campers were in caravans or motorhomes with a couple of trailer tents and some tents.
The site is perfect for visiting Salisbury and the surrounding area. It is a 30 min walk or a short cycle into town along a cycle path which runs bear to the site.
The campsite is on a slope, near to the start of the slope up to Old Sarum. There is a great view of Old Sarum to the North but otherwise the site is a bit uninspiring, laid out in a simple grid system with no natural curves or shelter, other than the sloping pitches.
We were well placed near to the reception building, were the site is at its flattest. You will need to prepare for a sloping pitch as even most of the hard standings have a slope!
The shower blocks were very clean, as expected from the C&CC. However we were disappointed that the nearest block was shut for the duration of the bank holiday as the site was busy enough for them both to be open.
The site doesn't really have anything for younger children. Older children can leave the site and play on the rugby pitches on Hudson Field next to the site.
There is a small shop selling essentials and WiFi is available at £2 per day. A large Waitrose about 15 mins walk towards the town. This also includes a good selection of John Lewis items if you have forgotten to pack something.
During our stay the site was quiet during the night and apart from the flood light near reception the site is fairly dark.
My only suggestion would be for the C&CC to do some landscaping to improve the level of the pitches and the aesthetics of the site.

Have just returned from a long weekend break to Salisbury and chose this site for it's location. It was perfect and the staff were ever so friendly. They really put themselves out to help you, provided lots of information and ensured we got the full discount that we were entitled to, even though we didn't go expecting any. It's great to be able to walk to Old Saram from the site, and we also found it easy to walk into Salisbury. Nothing negative to say at all about the site and will definitely return.

Camped over a very cold Easter weekend at Salisbury C&CC, and had a great time.
It was a late booking due to having to change site as a result of adverse weather.
The staff were extremely helpful as always (this was my third stay), and gave me a pitch with some shelter near the facilities block as requested.
The pitch was massive, and I was lucky to have it as the site was not busy.
The water temperature in the showers was not particularly hot. It was probably fine for warmer weather, however, not so when day time temperatures were barely above zero! However, the issue was quickly dealt with by the staff after campers requested for the water temperature to be turned up a little.
The facilities were spotless as expected for a C&CC club site.
I love this site for its close proximity to Salisbury city centre, and the big Hudson Field adjacent to it, which is loved by my dog as he can run riot with other dogs that frequent the field.
The site has no play area of its own, however, the massive Hudson Field next door more than made up for it. It is excellent for ball games and flying plans and kites.
Plenty of lovely walks close by, including Old Sarum, and the Avon Valley Nature Reserve close by.
A fish and chips van visits the site on Fridays and the occasional Tuesdays, and the price for a big portion of tasty fish and chips is very reasonable.
The only issue I have is the manual gate for vehicle access. Hopefully, it will be upgraded to an automatic barrier system in the future.
I am lucky to have such a lovely site so close to home, highly recommended.

We had our first visit to this site, really pleased with the site. Excellent facilities, cleanest campsite we have been to, kitchen, showers, toilets, absolutely spotless, really friendly staff, couldn't be more helpful, 5 star all round,
Salisbury has loads to offer with bus stop just opposite the site or a taxi ride at £6.00, staff even went out of there way to charge my laptop for me, many thanks,
Look forward to next visit.

Clean dog friendly site, nice big park for dogs and kids adjacent to the site, Nice view over old Sarum Castle unfortunately also views of housing areas and the the nearby road (but not the noise). Facilities clean but snug shower cubicles. Friendly wardens who were kind enough to lend us a levelling ramp which you will need on this site. Site was busy when we arrived, slightly resembling a caravan storage area, not exactly what you would call a 'pretty' site but functional. It is well situated for exploring the beautiful city and other attractions including Stone Henge which although outdoor, strangely it is not dog friendly!

Stayed here over the August bank holiday and had a great stay. The staff were all very friendly, welcoming and helpful, the site and facilities were all immaculately maintained, no queues for showers etc even though the site was full.
It's a great location just on the edge of Salisbury but with a semi rural feel - Hudson's fields next to the site and the old fort are great for walks. Can't fault the site, would definitely return.

Just stayed here, first time back to camping since our kids were little.
Very clean site, clean toilets, good size site not to over crowded, very near walking distance to Salisbury.
The only thing to bear in mind, is not to get put near the bottom left hand corner, if you want some peace and quite.
There is a social club just over the fence, handy for a beer, but noisy. I would have hoped someone might have told us.

Stayed for 3 nights over the Diamond Jubilee weekend. Was first offered a small pitch at the bottom of the site but due to a number of last minute cancellations (a rumour had got out that the weather was going to be bad!)swapped it for a larger pitch nearer the social club.
Yes it sloped a bit, but not too bad and the club noise was not intrusive.
Walked into Salisbury twice along the river - much recommended. Visited Ringwood and Shaftsbury on a bike tour the second day and walked up to Old Sarum when we got back.
Can recommend the rugby club bar adjacent to the site for a beer in the evening and the Harvester, up the road, if you don't fancy cooking. Stuck our head in the social club but was full of chavs and kids.
The site staff and facilities are all that you would expect of a C&CC site and would recommend it.
And the weather. A lot better than it was in London and those that cancelled missed out!
