 Very busy site. EHU was good and good large pitch.
Unfortunately only 1 male and female toilet and only 1 shower for the whole site. With lots of tents it was queuing at social distancing.

A marvelous campsite. A friend & I had completed the Ridgeway by bike and made the mistake of staying at a much inferior campsite up the road, and after that canal side disaster this place was a halcyon of bliss. I wish we had moved here on the 1st night and saved us the pain at the other place.
Dave the landlord was very friendly, and ensured we were well fed and watered, and the locals kept us amused by their stories of unusual visitors to the area attracted by the prehistoric and supernatural landmarks.
The camping field was properly maintained, the grass nice and short, the hook ups were easily accessed by those that needed them. The neighbouring fields had a few horses and the garden of the pub had chickens clucking around.
There is only one showers, but it was very clean with good pressure & you could have a good wash.
The pub food was excellent, and the 6x was beautifully kept.
This will be a go-to campsite for exploring the local area in the future.

A revisit after a couple of years and the prices are still £12 for the campervan with one adult and one dog. Left to ourselves.
Nothing has changed a lot since the last visit, there are electric hookups down one side and non electric pitches on the other side. The rest of the site is just one big field with loads of space for kids to play, dogs to run, etc.
The facilities consist of a toilet and urinal for men, and a couple of toilets for the ladies. There is a washing up area and a shower, which was free and perfectly adequate. There is also fresh water on the field.
The chickens and cockerels are still by the camping field.
The pub itself was very nice and sold a great selection of drinks, including local ales We did not eat there but the food looked lovely.
Plenty in the area with miles of walks straight from the site. It is also ideally located for seeing all that Wiltshire has to offer including Silbury Hill, Avebury, Stone Henge, Marlborough, etc.
The pub dog is still there and wanders around, so be careful not to leave any food out or bins, as he is happy to help himself to your stuff.

I've used this campsite for the past few years and always found it excellent! It's certainly busier in the summer but the facilities are always clean and tidy. The shower could do with being replaced (not exactly powerful!) but other than that it's a lovely quiet campsite in a beautiful area. When the wind blows it can be a bit chilly but the pub is always warm with FANTASTIC food, a great selection of beer and a very friendly atmosphere.

We last visited this site two years ago with a group of friends and have been wanting to come back for a while. I booked in advance as I thought that the site might get busy and we had arranged to meet friends, I probably wouldn’t have needed to bother as the site was full only for pitches with electric hook up but we didn’t need it.
The camping field is a large grass paddock which has been split up the middle by the addition of some pitches with electric hook up, the grass was pretty long and could have done with a cut but as the weather stayed dry for the weekend we didn’t need to worry too much about wet paws. The toilet/shower facilities haven’t been updated since we last stayed and whilst perfectly functional could do with a lick of paint.
I can’t fault the site though for the price we paid; it is conveniently located halfway between us and friends, the pub serves a good pint and hot meals, the village is very pretty and the area is really quiet at night, it was nice to be on a site with no bright lighting that would spoil the view of the night sky.
Walking is easy along the canal and we managed a nice circular walk along the canal and up to the ‘Giants Grave’ and back.

Very large camping field which we shared with only 1 other tent. Arrived mid afternoon, having booked. Pub was shut so we couldn't check in at that time and went off to explore. Returned late evening to pub and paid for pitch (£14. 50) with h/u. Pub has beautiful resident green parrot and hens in the garden. Landlord was friendly. Facilities were perfectly reasonably but would be stretched if there were a lot of visitors. Patchy mobile phone & wifi. You have to walk around to find any reception. The grass was long and there was rain overnight which meant that by the morning we were unable to get any grip to move away. Had to call the AA to tow us off the field. The landlord was clearly unhappy with us. Be warned as there are no hard standings.

We did not book this site and just arrived and they had space. It was £12 for one adult, one dog in a campervan. We checked in at the pub and the person we met with was friendly, helpful and told us about the site and left us to pitch.
There are electric hookups down one side and non electric pitches on the other side. The rest of the site is just one big field with loads of space for kids to play, dogs to run, etc.
The facilities consist of a toilet and urinal for men, and a couple of toilets for the ladies. There is a washing up area and a shower, which was free and perfectly adequate. There is also fresh water on the field.
There are chickens and cockerels by the camping field, however they did not disturb us at all.
The pub itself was very nice and sold a great selection of drinks, including local ales We did not eat there but the food looked lovely. They run a quiz on the first Sunday of each month and don't do food whilst this is on, however if you join in with the quiz they do provide food.
The area is perfect for walking with miles of walks straight from the site. It is also ideally located for seeing all that Wiltshire has to offer including Silbury Hill, Avebury, Stone Henge, Marlborough, etc.
I would come back and would have loved to make this my regular site whilst crop circle hunting however the pub has two collies who are allowed to wander wherever they like and are not watched at all. We witnessed one doing his business in the field and this was of course just left. Unfortunately we went out for the afternoon walking and returned to find one of them sitting by the campervan after having got in to the utility tent and ripped apart a bag that contained food. They were also hanging around the camping field for most of the time and this put our dogs on edge and was a real nuisance.
I would return time and time again, but only if the pub dogs were controlled and kept off the camping field.

Popped in to check out this site whilst staying at another in the area, as fancied this one for next time! Fantastic location in the village behind the pub, and only a short walk along a quiet village road to the canal. Perfect for dog walking.
Nice flat field with quite a few hookup points dotted around, tap and basic shower and toilet. Don't go if you want luxury but if we like a very quiet basic site in a wonderful location, so it's perfect.

Been back to this site a dozen or more times over the last 10 years, a lot of happy memories,
The camp field is flat and even in wet weather stays dry, the toilets and showers are basic, but always clean, can get a little busy in high session, Pewsey is just up the road with a supermarket if you need it, but some good meals to be had in the pub on the site
What I like about the site is a number of things, being close to Stonehenge 15 mile walk get the bus back, Avesbury 14 miles, and if your up to it a 32 mile walk/bike to Bath down the Kennet and Avon Canal, get train back, beautiful walking country, wildlife and the peace and quiet, even kayak on the canal, and how can I forger the cask ales at the swan.
