Baltic Wharf well worth a visit
Baltic Wharf Caravan Club Site is situated right next door to the dock side. A great site if you want to stop over in Bristol to visit the sights without paying those silly city prices. The CC Site is what you would expect to find when it comes to cleanliness and high standards in the clubs facility's. The site is a little cramped with not a lot of space between vans, this is due to the number of vans they try to accommodate on a site that was full when we visited in January 2017. Walk through the security gate at the bottom of the site and you step out on to the Wharf. Here you can jump on a water taxi (£3 return for CC Members) and 10 mins later in your in the heart of the city. Passing some wonderful sites along the way. In the city you will find a great shopping experience, loads of tea rooms, Pubs and Restaurants. There's even a big wheel you can jump on and see more of the city.On our return trip we where dropped off out side the Cottage pub which is right next door to the CC site. Here you will find a large selection of Ales, good quality meals and very a friendly service. On the second day we decided to walk into the city by following the dock side path, took us about 30 mins and that was also stopping to take photos of the SS Great Britton, dock side cranes and trucks, the oldest steam ship in the world and the famous Balmorals steam ship. We will certainly return again, taking in consideration you need to book early as its a very popular site. My only negative point was we lost our electric power on one of the nights and only the warden could reset. Most poles had trip fuses, ours unfortunately had the fuses sealed inside the post, worth checking when parking just in case you accidently overload.
Brilliant location in the heart of Bristol

Spoilt only by a few inconsiderate people
Just returned from this wonderful site hope the club can keep it as long as possible, great for visiting Bristol Christmas market and other shops in town. We were there for 6 nights and 5 out of the 6 we were the only unit to have and awning up yet all the awning pitches were full! Time the club charged those that book awning pitches just to have a bit more space, for 2 nights there was a small VW camper taking up an awning pitch. I have tried to book awning pitches in the past and couldn't, but managed to book non-awning pitch for the time I wanted, only to arrive and see several awning pitches used by motorhomes or caravans that have no intention of putting up an awning. I for one would pay extra to put up my awning but maybe it is time the club made members that book awning pitches and don't put an awning up pay extra!!! It might stop them.
While I am having a little moan this site was only spoilt by inconsiderate members that seem unable to close a door without slamming it, Please Please think of other people when you open and close your doors and that goes for caravans, cars and motorhomes owners. Thank you.
Preserve this site!
Very interesting place to stay lots to se close by
