Work required!

This site has long been my favourite destination close to the harbour and city centre, and great to visit any time of the year. But on my last visit mid September 22 I have to saw I think it is beginning to show its age and the fact that the axe is about to fall, although the toilet shower block was clean enough the seats in the shower cubicles were in a right state. I think if you sat on them you would probably need a tetanus injection soon after, dirt and rust being the main problem, I can understand why they are not being replaced but I think it would be better to remove them altogether rather than chancing someone being hurt! I still like the site and if it could continue that would be great but there is a lot of work needed to return it to it's former glory.

The best site on the network

I will keep returning to Baltic Wharf for as long as it remains open, for one reason: location, location, location. In the heart of one of England's great historic cities in the beautiful county of Somerset. Walking out of the back gate onto the harbourside and seeing the masts of SS Great Britain and the colourful buildings opposite is magic. Long may it remain.

All things Bristol

We managed to get a booking during the Bristol Harbour Festival. And even outside the festival weekend the location of Baltic Wharf is superb for all things Bristol. The site wardens, Emma and Steve, are very welcoming and maintain the site and (aging) facilities to a good standard. Whilst Baltic Wharf is not a quiet site it is hard to beat such a convenient location so close to a city centre. It will be a very sad day indeed when this site eventually closes.

Happy to be here.

Always good to arrive here.choice of pitch which makes a change.hook up point different to some sites.better signs needed. Shower curtains returned at wash cubicles but not in showers. Not much noise from workmen.perhaps if they take longer to finish road then the site might stay open after September!! Still find things to do and places to go .we had been coming here for years.had trip on the matthew which we saw being built in the harbour area in mid 90,s here as well when launched here for millennium and too many birthdays etc to keep count of.still don't understand why council won't consider leaving it alone !! Far too many empty flats etc for sale all along harbour.return September.cant wait !!

Visit Bristol

Great site for a visit to Bristol and especially the dockside attractions. The facilities are looking somewhat tired and run down so perhaps some investment is called for.

Love the location of this site

Great site for location. Such a shame it’s closing..at some point! The temporary warden possibly needs to balance efficiency with bluntness. I thought he was a little rude whilst being efficient. There are ways of talking to people even people who possibly haven’t followed rules. All members are adults and no need to embarrass in front of other members. Just a quiet word would be needed, issue a bit of a warning. Saying that, he was frustrated the rules hadn’t been followed and was probably sick of it - I’d followed the rules, just witnessed how he spoke to the chap. But don’t let it put you off. If you’re like me, you have very little to do with the wardens. If you can get a pitch in site… do it before it closes. You won’t regret it.

excellent stay

Really enjoyed our time here, it was excellent, site clean and tidy, staff polite and efficient, facilities were very clean. Would be happy to visit again and recommend to anyone. The site is extremely well located for our needs and well placed to visit SS Great Britain. Plenty to see and do close by. Pub just outside the back gate on edge of Wharf. It'll be a shame if the site has to shut at some point.

Good to be here again.well run by wardens and the little dog. We made bad choice pitch (39) as all family behind other side of hedge constantly walked through.doesnt do much for tree or hedge !! Pleased to see another date for closing.we keep thinking it will be our last visit.perhaps Council have finally seen how many people are happy to visit and spend money in the city. Looking forward to summer and autumn return.

Fantastic site & wonderful staff

We have often stayed at Baltic Wharf and it feels like coming home when we do. The staff are friendly and helpful and the park is always spotlessly clean. The location is great and the facilities are excellent. We are very sad that this site is closing, it is a veritable jewel of a site and it would be great if there was a long term reprieve ... Book a stay at this site and you won't be disappointed we love it at Baltic Wharf.

Brilliant site - staff and location. Please keep it open!!

This site, in the heart of Bristol docks, is a lovely site, really well-located, and a credit to the Caravan and Motorhome Club. We stay here often, even though we only live 2 hours away in Devon, because we have family in Bristol, and this site is perfect for our visits. But its popularity sometimes makes it hard to get a booking. So we really do not want this site to close, unless and until an alternative site in a similarly great part of the city is found and available. We love it here.
