 This is a fantastic site, toilets clean, showers warm plenty of hot water too. The site is peaceful apart from the sealions barking, the lions roaring and the wolves howling, which is an added bonus.

You can wander round the grounds in the evening, it's great for fishing too. It's a nice walk to the pub but the food there is a little pricey and not very good. The chip van that comes round is very nice.

Highly recommend and we are returning again in a few weeks. Remember to take pushbikes as there are plenty of cycle routes and it makes exploring the estate easier.

 The view as you arrive on the grounds is magnificent, what a Wow factor to your arrival! We had plenty of choice of pitches, as we arrived early on a Friday afternoon, but by the evening the site was quite full.

We pitched on a hard-standing with lots of room for car, van and awning and surrounded by lots of mature trees and plenty of visiting ducks!. The little train ran by every hour.

We were close to the park area, which our son loved and made some nice friends. The only thing he missed was a larger grassed area to play football or games during the day, but then he is football mad like most 9 year olds!.

Even though the site was full, the toilets were always immaculate, and the site didn’t feel busy.

We got the Longleat passport ticket using Tesco club card, £6.50 each instead of £24 per adult! The safari was amazing, and seeing the deer feeding out of your hand was quite something. The safari boat trip was great too, and heard the sea lions most of the weekend which was not annoying at all, quite lovely.

Woke often during the night to hear the lions and wolves, which is pretty strange but amazing! Our son loved the huge adventure castle, the house tour, the simulator car ride, the parrot show, etc. Everything was just superb for him (and us!).

After the park closed, we went cycling around the grounds for a few hours, and had deer walking by the side of the roads with us. It’s so peaceful and beautiful, and you feel very special being allowed to roam around the area after everyone else has gone home!

The shop stocked enough for our needs, but then we always do a big shop before setting out. Kept us happy with ice cream and drinks as we were very lucky to have temperatures in the 30’s!

Planning our next trip back already!

Reviewer: Boothy1402 1 review from this member

 The weather couldn't have been better, and to see kids having water fights and loads of small paddling pools by the side of the caravans was lovely. We arrived the Thursday before the kids broke up so was very quiet so we were able to choose a really pitch 140 I think.

Lovely pitch hard standing and very big with nobody in front of us. We could just about hear the sea lions at night and in the day which was great!. We bought a passport ticket which is well worth it.

The adventure park is great and if you want to go in and just pay it is £4 just for the child but well worth it. We went in about 4 times. It has a little wet area where kids can run through water fountain which was heaving in hot weather. I love the fact you can walk into the park even at night when it is closed to the general public. We use to do this most nights and play frizbee in front of the house!

We also use to walk passed the house through the fields and down a side round passed Nico on his island watching telly! The safari park is a must. The monkeys were in quarantine so no damage to the cars. Feeding the deer from your car was just amazing, my daughter loved it.

The site itself is lovely and safe. My daughter loved the fact she could just cycle round and be safe. The toilet blocks were clean although the showers were extremely busy first thing in the morning, but this was to be expected in the holidays. I think people from a near by rally were using the showers though.

The only thing I would say is the shop could have been bigger saying that the sight is big and no local shops near by. Asda is only 3 miles away but would have been nice to have be able to get more products from the shop. Sign post coming from the north west aren't good and we found that the sat nav was taking us all over the world. We used our map in the end. I think the best way in would be through bath which is a lot quicker.

We will defo be going back in the near future and I cant see why anybody wouldn't like this site. My daughter loved it and so did my mum and dad.

 This was our third visit to the club site and with out a doubt this is by far one of the caravan clubs best site.

Everything about this site is perfect there is no down side at all. From the wonderful clean shower and toilet blocks to Mr Chips the mobile chip van who arrives on site every Tues, Fri and Sat.

The wardens on site are always cheerful and willing to offer any help they can.

Asda is only a short drive away at Frome should you need to stock up on anything and they also have a petrol station there as well.

It has already been decided that we will be going again next year, the site is addictive.

Reviewer: Claydoncamper 28 reviews from this member

 I can only echo what previous reviewers have said about this site, it really is fantastic in all ways.

On arrival we were told to find a pitch wherever we liked and that they were all hard standing, which, I think was due to the heavy rain we had in the previous few days.

The pitches were of a decent size and the hard standing material was ok for awning rock pegs. All pitches have electric hook-up from bollards that are illuminated at night. Everywhere the site was immaculate.

Despite the rain, the toilet and shower floors were always clean and mud free and the actual toilets, wash basins and shower cubicles were immaculate. The showers themselves had plenty of hot water and were easily controllable. More to the point, they were free running showers, not those ones that shut off every 30 seconds. There were plenty of rubbish bins and recycling facilities around the site as well. The rubbish was constantly collected.

The site is very near to the Longleat attractions and you can be in the heart of it in under a few minutes. The site is also near to the Longleat train and the lake and the sounds of sealions barking is quite distinct and far from unpleasant or disturbing as is the whistling and chugging of the miniature train.

On the site, the children can ride their bikes around very safely and there is a nice, well maintained play area for them as well. There is a site shop but it is very limited in stock. Having said that, Asda in Frome is a very short drive away, as is the very nice Leisure Centre they have there if you fancy a swim.

If Longleat itself isn’t your thing, try Wookey Hole (use Tesco days out or Caravan Club Great Days Out vouchers for this), Cheddar Caves and Gorge (use CC vouchers), Weston-Super-Mare, Glastonbury or many other lovely places to visit.

My top-tip for the site is this. On Friday, Saturday and Tuesday a chip van comes on site at 6pm. He goes around the site tooting his horn to let you know he has arrived. He then parks opposite the recycling bins outside the laundry. Make sure you get to the stopping point before 6pm because the queues can be horrendous once he’s there.

I couldn’t see a downside to this site and would certainly go again.

 Wow! From the moment you pass the sculptures at the entrance to the estate (I think they're supposed to represent two halves of an arch) you know this is going to be special. The 4 mile drive down the hill (with views of the safari park) sweeping past the entrance to the house and on through Longleat Woods has got to be just about the perfect approach to any caravan site in the country.

The site itself exceeds even the very high standards of the caravan club. Check in is straight forward and there is a good choice of huge hardstanding pitches. Even though it was almost full this weekend, it never felt crowded and we never had to queue for the facilities which were spotless.

The wardens work really hard to keep the place in good nick! There is a small dog walk and children's' play area, but with the whole of the estate on your doorstep you probably won't use them!

The shop stocks basics but there is and Asda just down the road on the outkirts of Frome. A 15 minute stroll up the drive from the house leads to Horningsham and the Bath Arms which does excellent food, is dog friendly and has a real suntrap of a terrace at the front.

We live within an hour's drive so will visit again but even if we'd been coming from further afield, we'd still return. To cap it all, the weather was brilliant all weekend, What more could you ask for?

Reviewer: Gale67 5 reviews from this member

 I loved this site, ok it helped that the sun shone but we have been on lots of sites with many facilities and we all loved this one - we visited for a week-end with our three children 6, 10 and 12

We, unlike most of other campers actually were not going to Longleat (had already used Tesco vouchers for Legoland ! and we have been before) so don't be put off going if you don't plan to go into Longleat as you can actually pay for attractions separately - ours spent afternoon in Adventure playground (£4 each take towels if hot as water fountains)

At night you can walk straight into rear entrance and walk around outside of the house - no one ele there except fellow campers.

Lovely pretty site - all pitches spacious and well laid out - showers hot - we never queued ! Good recycling - small on site shop, we had forgotten toothpaste and they stocked it, as well as ketchup !

Can't wait to go back next year - and big bonus for 6 year old was tarmac roads and loads of flat level places to cycle ! And yes we did hear lions and sea lions and I loved it

 Just returned from 5 nights here and it was fantastic.

Very welcoming. Excellent layout with wide, generous pitches which you can choose for yourself. The toilet block was spotless and one of the best things was no timers on the showers! (Which I personally think speeds up the throughput rather than slowing it down).

'Mr Chips' visits 3 times a week and I have to say that I have not eaten fish & chips like it in years - absolutely superb!

Longleat is 5 mins walk away and with a 'passport' ticket you can dip in & out over 4 or 5 days rather than trying to get round everything in one day. Only downside for me was that the camp shop does not accept credit / debit cards for purchases, only site fees. So if you plan to buy a gas cylinder or a TV lead, take plenty of notes with you! Big Asda is a couple of miles away and was also excellent. WiFi is a bit expensive, but you can log in and out of it so an hour can last a long time if you are simply checking email. Would recommend highly. 5 Stars!

Reviewer: Conway campers 13 reviews from this member

 We visited this campsite during the Easter weekend and were very impressed with the site. Upon arrival the warden was very nice and we were told that we could go on any pitch, just come back to the reception when we found a spot to tell them the pitch number.

We managed to find a lovely spot near to the waterfall from mile lake which had the miniature railway pass by us on a regular basis. We could also hear the sealions most of the day as the lake was just behind the campsite.

The toilet blocks were very clean and tidy and the showers were very nice also, considering that it was Easter weekend and the site was full. We also paid a £10 deposit which we got back at the end of our stay for the key to the baby bathroom which was fantastic, it was very clean and we bathed our 15 month old in the baby bath and she loved it. It had a changing table in it, a loo for toddlers at toddler size and even a hair dryer.

The only one thing that I could fault as such was the contents in the shop / reception, as there could have been more of the basics like bread and such, but saying this, it is how most caravan club shops / receptions are.

The attractions of Longleat are a 5 min walk away out of the site and turn left, with the maze on the right and animal adventure on the left (walking towards the house from the site) with the house directly in front of you.

If you turn up in a motorhome you can still go on the safari without uprooting the awning and moving your motorhome, you simply just jump onto the safari bus at the bus stop near to the maze (at a cost mind you) and it will take you round, but if you are a towing outfit like us you can just simply jump into the car and drive round yourself.

The safari was very busy but it was the Easter weekend.

We really enjoyed staying at this site and would love to visit again. I even heard the wolfs howling at 2 o'clock in the morning when our baby got me up, to which the wife told me off the next morning for not waking her up so she could hear them.

All in all, very clean, great for kids.

 This was our first trip in the motorhome and we had chosen Longleat!

When we arrived I was so impressed with the layout and cleanliness of the site and all the facilities. There are a number of toilet / shower blocks which were kept beautifully clean throughout our 2 night stay. This was despite heavy downpours which created lots of mud! There is a fantastic information room with loads of info of what to do in the area and recommendations for restaurants. There is also a small shop selling basics in the reception.

Longleat itself is a great place to visit with loads to do and it is literally only 5 mins away. As we were in the motorhome we didn't have another vehicle. But you can still do the safari but in a double decker bus which was amazing.

Apart from the food areas at Longleat there are a few pubs relatively close by. We walked to one which was a good 30 minute walk away. A very safe walk but don't forget your torch which was very handy for us.

All in all a fantastic first time experience and this site was amazing. I would recommend it to anyone!

 What a great site. Spent a lovely couple of days here and it is just ideal for using alongside the Longleat pass.

The site itself is everything you would expect from a Caravan Club site with the bonus that it is on the Longleat estate itself. Being able to wander around Longleat before and after the rest of the public came in was a bonus too.

We went to sleep with the sounds of the seals barking, I woke in the night to hear the wolves howling and woke up to the roar of the lions. Wow!

Reviewer: New2itadp 3 reviews from this member

 Fantastic! Loved it.

Toilet blocks sparkling and heated. Setting was idyllic, listening to the sealions and lions whilst sipping wine was fab. The wardens were very helpful and nothing too much trouble. Loads to do at Longleat estate which was a 100m walk from the site. Just to mention we were in a motorhome so had no transport and the shops and pub were not accessible by foot without an hours walk, so make sure you have everything you need with you.

The fish and chip van food was not nice (yellow) we threw ours away.

 We have just returned from a weekend at this amazing site! The reviews for this site are accurate, it is the best caravan club site we have stayed at. To be that close to Longleat is just fantastic, and to be able to hear the animals while you relax with a glass of wine is just wonderful.

We arrived late but this was not a problem for them as you can phone through and get directions to the actual site entrance. You are then able to choose your own pitch which was great for us as we were with family who had already arrived. The toilet facilities were immaculate and never busy as they have plenty of blocks around the site.

For us the best bit was being able to walk the very short walk down the lane and be right inside Longleat. We got the passports so were able to choose when we did the various activities and spread it over the two days. Having the option to come back to the caravan for food was great!

We will definitely be returning to this fantastic site for longer and would recommend it to anyone who has a caravan!

 Excellent. Clean. Friendly. Very impressed with this site but wish we could have stayed longer than 3 nights. Toilets were the best Ive seen, plenty of toilets & showers, very clean, fly screens to stop moths / flies, plenty of hooks / shelves in cubicles and adjustable shower head!

A 5 minute stroll into Longleat Estate was a real bonus. We could hear the SeaLions most of the day as the safari boats took visitors to feed them.

A good play area was on site but couldn't resist wandering back into Longleat Estate (where there is the biggest adventure castle play area I have ever seen). Lots of little ones seem to be getting lost, so please keep them close.

The minor things which would have improved our visit would have been the TV hook up point was too far away for our lead (10 metre) and don't use sat nav, it took us a very strange route near to the site and we struggled to find it.

A definite return visit will be made.

 This has to be the best site we have ever stayed at, faultless. I would recommend anyone to go to this site absolutely fab! Facilities fantastic, toilet block immaculate, friendly staff, 2 min walk to park. You can even walk or cycle around the Longleat Grounds when the park is closed, we watched the hippos whilst having a picnic in the evening, magical.
The Lion was heard mating on Saturday evening which was quite embarrassing but amazing to hear! If you visit Longleat House ask for the extended Mural tour, absolutely amazing what Lord Bath has created.
