 This is a very good site the people who run it are very welcoming (but not all over you if you know what I mean) they show you where every thing is and leave you to enjoy your stay.

Me and My wife took are two kids age 7 & 9 for four nights in are tent.

My brother and his girlfriend camped at the same time too.

We had a campfire each day and into the night it really does make camping so much better having one. Hmm hot baked potatoes lovely done on a camp fire.

Don't worry about taking fire wood thay provide every thing you need for a great campfire at a small price.

We went to longeat which was very good. (if you go there and drive though the monkey pen they will find some thing to pull off Bite or break on your car they are experts at this so be warned.

We also hired in a nearby town called brent-on-avon ten minutes away or so

Two big canadian canoe's witch was great fun we all went off down the cannal for a few hours cost £10 per hour for rental.

My Son say's 'It was a very nice place to relax and have fun'.

My daughter says 'this was a very nice place because it wasn't to big so you didn't have trouble finding the shower block. I really like it as there was a field next to it with a horse in it who was very friendly.

As a whole we had a great time there.

 This is the first time we have stayed at Brades Acre and we had a lovely stay.

The location is perfect for visiting Wiltshire. The site was friendly and quiet. There was a little road noise during the day but this did not impact on our stay at all.

We were one of the only campers in a tent so had the field to ourselves most of the time but there is loads of space and the ground is quite flat. Don't pitch too close to the horses though!

The pitch is in full sun all day so it was lovely to wake up bathed in sun and keep the evening light.

Fire pits and wood are provided (small charge for wood)

The toilet block was spotless and although there is only one female and one male shower, we did not have to wait (Showers a 50p for approx 5 mins) This might be a different story if the campsite is fuller. There was good washing up and laundry facilities but it is a shame that there was no fridge that campers have easy access to as this would be a good addition to the otherwise excellent facilities.

The pub in the village is part way through a refurb and isn't serving food at the moment but there are others a short drive away. You can get basic supplies at the garage which is walking distance.

One thing I would say is that I would probably not recommend people with young children stay as there is nothing really to amuse them here.

All in all, we had a brilliant stay. I would def stay here again. Thnk you George and Judith. You have a lovely site!

 We were booked into this camp site by friends and did not know what to expect, we were over the moon with this small but very attractive site

The owners could not do enough for us and made our stay very pleasant

Toilet and showers all new and the grounds very clean. It was also an excellent place to exercise the dog with miles of footpaths to choose from

We will definitely be going back

Reviewer: Cade 1 review from this member

 We are a family of 5 + a dog, this was our first weekend away in our caravan and we loved every minute.

The site was very quiet, the toilets and showers were immaculate and require a 50p piece for 5 mins, the same for the hair dryer. There is only one shower in the FM block and one in the males and although we never had to wait I wondered if it would be the same during peak season?

A short walk to the village where there is a pub, which serves food and also provides a takeaway service. There is also a post office within the pub and a bit further down the road a garage/convenience store. There is no footpath immediately out side the site and in the dark this can be a bit dangerous as it is also unlit. A torch is a must!

 This was the last of the 14 sites we visited on our two week journey and by far the best! If we had gone there first, it would have been hard to travel onwards! Incredible value for all the facilities you receive here.

The showers are immaculate,obviously quite new and incredibly clean. The garden itself is lovely, you truly feel you are in your 'own' home here, assisted by the fact that the owner George is such a delightful character, who does not over fuss about 'rules and regulations' that many other owners do; he just makes you feel incredibly welcome!

Another huge bonus are the TV aerial wires you can use for perfect picture reception, I have not come across a camp which provides a service like this before; you have to provide your own connections normally and the prices of such camps are 3 times the amount you would pay here!

There are wooden benches all over the garden so no need to set up your own tables, and of course all the usual facilities of an excellent site.

The village has a pub which doubles as a post office and garage which is also a general store. The villagers are exceedingly friendly, and of course an added bonus is that Stonehenge is just down the road!

Reviewer: Kittystratford 1 review from this member

 Stayed here for a weekend whilst visiting relatives and couldn't have wished for a better site!Despite it being high season it was pretty peaceful - we shared the field with dutch, german and british families - children running about but everything under control and quiet by 9pm.

The toilet block (refitted last winter) was immaculate and also had a laundry room with coin in the slot washers and driers and washing up area. The owner and his family were very relaxed and friendly - we left our washing out to dry and when it to threatened rain they took it in for us (and folded it beautifully!).

The site is on the edge of Tilshead - there's a convenience store and decent looking pub (didn't visit). The only very minor drawback is it's proximity to the Salisbury road - you do hear the occasional swish of passing traffic - but it's easy to find and at a flat rate of £12 a night it's brilliant value.

 The site is easy to find, small and very friendly. The owners are lovely and the toilets and showers are the cleanest I have seen at a campsite. Our needs were simple as we are virtually self-sufficient in a motorhome and we do not have young children.

The Rose and Crown pub (which includes post office) is a 3 minute walk away and also friendly, as is the fuel station/general store a little further along the road. Good location for visiting Longleat (which I highly recommend and Bath). Will definitely stay there again.

 My partner, dog and I stayed at Brades Acre for 19 days as my partner was working near by. The campsite and owners was lovely, although we did encounter a lot of insects (spiders/earwigs) more than anywhere we have before. Please be aware this site is next to M.O.D land so you do hear gun and tank fire during the day. Only one night did we hear it.

The toilets are very clean and modern although only 1 shower and 2 toilets I only waited twice for the shower and never for the loo.

The only drawback is you have to pay for shower at 50p for about 5 mins. The hairdryer is also the same price.

There is indoor washing up facility and also washing machines and tumble dryers (not sure on price as we never used them).

The village itself is very small but beautiful. Public footpaths run behind the campsite so you can miss the roads as there is no pavement for 50 yards into village. There is a pub with post office inside, a petrol garage with general store selling basics and alcohol.

Devies is not a far car journey away and there you can find big supermarket (we found morrrisons the best). Devies is also very pretty with a river you can walk down.

Overall a great site, excellent value for money as our 19 night stay cost £180. We Will return.

 When the kids and I went there for the first time, we was very happy to be there. Everyone was friendly, even the locals were very nice.

It had very nice clean showers and WCs.

The local pub is very friendly for the kids. Other people on site were very friendly. There was 2 horses there in a field which the kids loved and loads of wildlife there, I saw a badger there one night. Will go again very soon.

100% for the campsite, 100% on the price.

Reviewer: Johnmanners 1 review from this member

 Very surprised how clean the site was the first impression of the camp site is amazing

As we arrived we was greeted by the owner he was very friendly.

This visit was during the world cup and we was worried in case we missed the first England match and believe me the owner and his family went out of their way to make sure we did not miss it. He offered us the choice to watch the game on his patio with him and his friend, or he even offered us a small portable telly to watch outside our tent. The service here is second to none

The shower facility was very clean the toilets were even cleaner and smelled fresh. All on the site were very friendly. This family business is second to none and I highly recommend this site to anyone

Also I can guarantee that this will not be my last visit I will make this number one on the top ten list for being the most friendly camp site I've been to also the kids were able to run around with no complaints really I cant say anything bad about the

Camp site so friendly
