Bristol International Balloon Fiesta

Sandy, Good to hear from you.  It is always good to hear of such sites especially new ones not too far from Bristol.

Do I take it that you are a CL  - Small 5 van site, or perhaps a slightly larger commercial site? What facilities do you offer and what price range?

We live Nr Almondsbury, North Of Bristol, and won't be attending the balloon Fiesta this weekend, but as I said we often get asked to recommend a site Nr us or WSM.

Hi TF yes we are a CL 5 van site, we offer the basics of fresh water, 16amp hook ups, wash out facilities and some country air, I would put some pictures on put struggling to attach them as they are too big.  We are on the CL 5 website under Mead Farm North Somerset.  We charge £12.00 spring and summer and £15 winter months that includes the electric.   Getting our photo's updated with some summer ones as they ones we put on the website were taken in the winter last year when we opened up, I thought it better than nothing, thou gives you a flavour on who we are.  Yes we are only 15 mins from Weston Super Mare and Clevedon.  We are finding we are getting a lot of stop overs for 1 night people from up north going to Cornwall who need that stop over for the night and we are about 20 mins from the M5 so its' a good location for them.  Anyway all business, had a few 2nd timers stay with us which is good and giving me lots of advice and tips, as someone who does not own a Caravan needs.  Take care and thank you for getting in touch - Sandy 

That's good to think there are a few more pitches in the Bristol area. I expect all the sites and rallies are full for the fiesta, it's well worth seeing, 20 mins drive to Ashton Court  is excellent. I was up that way last Sunday, lots to do in the area!

Just had a look at your web site entry. It is very detailed and refreshing to see such a welcoming description. I do wish more cl owners would take advantage the way you have to announce their site..

There are two further posts on the Certificated Locations section of the web site you may want to take advantsge of. They are, "Late availability for cl's" and "New certificated location". They are there for your benefit. It's a way of getting noticed. 

Yes Brue lots to do and see we are lucky we have a great city of Bristol and then the coast all 20 mins either side.  

Thank you Harry B ref the other parts of the Web did see the Late Availability for CL but could not work out how to put a post on it?

Can't even attach a profile picture as everyone I have it's saying it too big!

Looks good, Sandy. However your CC web page doesn't say whether you allow dogs on your site and if so is there a decent dog walk on the farm or close by.

Hi Nellie I will get onto the Club to get it changed as in the handbook it says we are a dog free site.   Sorry we decided to go down a no dog policy.  Thank you for pointing it out thou.

Pity about that, sandy, as we could well have paid you a visit, but as you might guess from my avatar we have a dog.

Ahhh never mind, we may change it one day in the future, as and when things change here at home, just at the moment it does not work for us personnely, watch this space xxx 

Will do, Sandy. Thanks.
