Just perfect for me
Copse Side Farm
I really loved this site. Such a picturesque location with a charming host in Mrs Beale.
I was only passing through for two nights and didn’t get a chance to explore much; just the pretty village of Ansty and one of the local dog walks. Anyone there for a longer stay would have plenty of interesting places to visit within a 20-mile radius when not simply chilling on site.
The camping area is a long strip of pasture, bordered by trees along one side and a sheep field on the other, all overlooked by the beautiful Wiltshire Downs. There is enough room to spread out and the hard standing area could probably accommodate a couple of units at a pinch.
A full five stars from me with no hesitation.

Stunning location
Copse Side Farm
We've just returned from our first visit to this CL - but without any doubt we'll be back. This is essentially (to us as walkers) what a CL should be - stunning location, beautiful views, space, a charming and very kind site owner, endless, endless number of walks from the site. A gem

Lovely, tranquil setting
Copse Side Farm
Lovely little CL on the edge of an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Easy access and good facilities for with sheep in the field next door. We only stayed 3 nights but we will back to explore the area more as the walking from the doorstep that we dipped into was beautiful.
A lovely peaceful site
Copse Side Farm
Easily accessed off the A 30, between Shaftsbury and Wilton, the site lies along one side of a long narrowish paddock at the end of 0.4 ml tarmac and concrete drive, past the farm house. The first two pitches are on a large hardstanding area, adjacent to the drinking water point, with the other, well spaced, grass pitches extending down the field, all with EHU. The site looks to the South East towards one of the ridges of Cannock Chase, and there is a dog walk from the bottom end of the site which leads onto a byway and from there one can access the ridge. There is a circular walk of about a mile which takes in the blue bell wood behind the site, Old Wardour Castle can be reached using footpaths, byways and lanes, and other walks, and mountain bike rides, of varying lengths can be done from the Chase ridge. Shaftsbury, Salisbury, Wilton House and Stonehenge are all within an easy drive, and other less well known places of interest close by are the Fovent Hillside Military Badges, Fonthill Estate and lake, and the Messums Gallery at Tisbury. There is a regular bus service between Shaftsbury and Salisbury that passes the entrance drive, although I don't know how often they run. There is a large Tesco, with a filling station, at Shaftsbury, and within walking distance from the site a good farm shop and cafe. The lovely lady owner, Beryl, is very friendly and helpful. We would not hesitate to use this site again.
Pretty and peaceful little site
Copse Side Farm
Mrs Beale gave us all the information about the site and surrounding area when we arrived. The site was a small long slightly sloping field overlooking wonderful farmland and hills. Levelling blocks were required. EHU points were close by and water and disposal point at the top of the field. There were plenty of walks including a farm shop within 10 minutes walk, which was well worth visiting for milk, bread and fresh produce. We will definitely return.
