OK CL in convenient location

Stayed here for 4 nights in Jan 2019. It's a fairly basic CL, electric hookups available as well as water and CDP but bins and recycling are at the farm house a few yards up the lane. Unlike a previous reviewer we did manage to find the water tap! The ground is fairly level, there's a bit of hard standing but we were on the grass and despite wet weather it wasn't too muddy. There was some traffic noise, but mostly not too intrusive for us and not as bad as you might think considering how near it is to major roads - which does make it very convenient for getting into Bristol or out and about the area. It's also very close to the Ashton Court estate, a big area of parkland (former stately home and grounds) now owned by the city and freely open to the public - great for walking the dog. The access lane is usually made narrow by parked cars, but it's not very long. The only problem we had getting there was that the directions from the motorway don't always reflect the current signposts, or at least the ones you can see in advance of the junctions, so take a look at your route on a map before you get there. Also, we never managed to see the owners, just put the money through the door - OK it's a working farm so they were probably very busy, but if personal contact matters to you then this may not be to your taste. Free range eggs on sale at the farmhouse (again put the money through the door). Overall, the main thing this site has going for it is the location. It worked for us on this occasion, but we usually go for quieter, more remote CLs so may not choose this one again.

Great Spot

Rang owner, Charlie, very friendly, said he had spaces so we drove here on the day! Fairly easy to find, narrowish lane to come down but not a problem. Small fenced off field, with water, chemical disposal and newly installed electric, we chose to not use ehu for our 2 night stay. We pitched up, rang owner he said he would pop to se us later. Turned up early evening, very nice friendly working farmer, couldn't have been nicer. Bus stop 2 min walk away, to Bristol or Weston super mare, so is pub. Would definitely return for a future stay.

Not so good this time.

I've stayed two nights this time and apart from a text confirming my booking and one more very brief one telling me where the gate is I've not seen hide nor hair of anyone. I can't find any drinking water and no one has replied to my texts so I can only assume there isn't any. I know it's only a tenner a night but it's really quite disconcerting not being able to get hold of anyone. I'm a disabled woman travelling alone and it would be nice to know there's at least someone nearby. I also REALLY need some water and the nearest shop is a mile away.  Apart from being run by ghosts it's a really convenient CL.

Friendly owners, laid back and helpful. Nice CL

I only stayed one night on the way to somewhere else but the owner was friendly and helpful and the site is level, what more do you want from a CL? Great location, close to Bristol centre. I'd definitely stay again.
