Very handy for motorways.

A delightful site with large pitches and privacy hedges. Oakleigh could not have been more helpful as we had a problem with our water pump. He came on his bicycle with tools to sort us out. As it is a working farm the well run system for finding your pitch and payment is very easy.

Great CL, Great Host, Perfect Location

Wood Farm is a great CL. We've stayed here numerous times, perfect for visiting Bristol, it's attractions and the surrounding area, or as a one night stop over when travelling further South or into Wales. Wood Farm is just a short way from the M4 and M5 junctions making it very accessible. The pitches are large allowing ample room for the Caravan, awning and car with hedges in between creating your own private space. The site is well maintained and each pitch has it's own electric hookup and access to fresh water. Each stay Mr Wood pops his head in just check everything is ok.  All in all and nice pleasant place to be.

Very Unhelpful owner

Tried to book here but owner very rude and unhelpful I was told on asking for a pitch im not near my computer so I will say no we don't have a pitch were full!!! unbelievable! There is a lovley site in Aust Newhouse Farm try this one instead much cheaper too lovley views.

Comment from The Club:-

Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review.  The CL owners have been in touch as they want to address your concerns as they make every effort to ensure people have the best possible time on their site.  The CL owners have a policy of answering the telephone at all times of the day and night in case of emergency. However, when you called around 10pm the CL owner was in bed asleep.  The bookings are held online in their farm office and they were therefore unable to check availability.  I understand that the CL owners offered to call you back in the morning but you declined this offer because of your work commitments.  The CL owners apologise for any misunderstanding.  As you will see from other reviews the owners always try to offer the best possible customer service and they are saddened to learn that they were not able to meet your expectations on this occasion.  I hope this helps to address your concerns and thank you again for leaving a review.

Excellent location and charming hosts.

I can highly recommend this site having stayed here numerous times due to leisure and work, if you are visiting Bristol or any surrounding areas. Yes there is a little bit of road noise from the Motorway but not enough to disturb you or keep you awake. Wood View is an open area with cropped fields leading to woods, plenty of room for kids to play and away from the main farm area. Also to note that this is a working farm so Oakleigh is not there to greet you, however, they have an excellent system in operation for arrivals and payments which you will see on entry, plus he is always on the end of his mobile. I have seen Oakleigh go to great lengths to aid stricken caravaners through breakdowns, illness or just forgotten equipment, therefore if you have a problem call him and he will do his best. Woodlands Golf course is just the other side of the motorway but you need to drive around as there is no direct access.

Convenient access to the South

We've stayed at this site a few times en route to the south west. It's great for being just 5 mins from the m5!  As an area notorious for traffic issues this site is great for taking a break from the journey to the south west. The sites are both well equipped and pitches are large and well separated by trees/ hedges. Arrival and departure is straight forward with clear instructions from the post box for where to pitch and where all facilities are located.  The sites are well away from the road which is great for children to roam without any worry or risk.  We look forward to visiting again.

Great site

We are frequent visitors to this site and the companion Field View. We particularly like the ease of arriving, picking up our envelope and knowing where to pitch without needing to speak to the owner, makes it so easy when we turn up in the evening and just want to pitch and eat. We have never had any problems in contacting the owner, they are only ever at the end of the phone. When our car broke down at the end of Hortham Lane, they were only too happy to immediately stop what they were doing and come and help by taking the caravan down to site for us, really helped us out of a jam, and very friendly of them. The facilities are as expected of a CL, the only thing to note is the noise of the motorway, but you soon adjust to that, and it has to be said, the close proximity of the motorway interchange has made this site particularly useful to us. We will be returning.

Lovely Stay as usual

Lovely stay as usual, been four times now and will be back again this year. Oakleigh is very helpful and makes a point of greeting all, as well as saying hello Oakleigh regularly checks all is well on your pitch and if needed he is only a call away. This is one of the best CLs we have stayed at, it is in a lovely area of the country being close to Bristol and Bath but the site is rural which is nice. It is an ideal stopover for trips to Devon and Cornwall due to its close proximity to the motorway network but also ideal for longer stays which we plan to do at some point. There is a lovely walk on site for dogs and venture a little further and there are some more off site, the pitches are the biggest we have come across and with hedging all around privacy is guaranteed. See you in July and August.

Good convenient site.

We have stayed here on a couple of occasions - we live in Bristol and find this site a great local getaway. It's also very convenient as a stop-over due to it's proximity to the M4 and M5. Despite this, the site is surprisingly quiet, with large private pitches.  We have found the owner very friendly and helpful, he even came out to help us fix our flat battery! Would highly recommend.

Spacious private pitches

Stayed here on our way back from Cornwall. Perfect pitch for a stop over. Close to the M5 easy to find, nice spacious private pitch. Easy self-serve arrival and friendly helpful owner. Would certainly recommend.
