longleat camping

First time stayed on the site as new to caravaning, booked back in February (before even getting our van, as always go to the festival of light due to my birthday being in dec,) having read reviews so seen the site from previous visits to longleat, thought we'd give it a go, and we were very pleased we did, lovely warm smiley welcome in reception, everything explained as to where we could pitch and how to position caravan on the pitch itself, also what facilities were open and times, the pitch was large so we could have our awning up on 1 side of caravan and park the car the other, nice level pitch too, we parked close to a shower block so handy to the water and waste facilities which were clean and tidy, the wi-fi onsite you do have to pay for, but we have our own so didnt use the onsite 1, signal for both phone and our wi-fi was not too good but you are in a valley so that will block some signals out, cant say about tv reception as didnt set mine up, will definitely be booking to stay there again whether going into longleat or not, if your going into longleat once you have done the drive through you an park you car back at the caravan and walk into the main area and other attractions as its a 5 min walk into the main square from the site, just show your ticket or as it is now your email conformation number to the member of longleat staff in the little hut by barrier and you can walk in and out taking the stress out of finding parking in the car park and not having anything happen to you car while in there,

Another excellent visit

Visited the site a couple of days ago to see Santa at longleat. We have been to the site many times over the years and as usual it was great. Booking in went well, missed having the shop there but completely understand why but will be grateful when it’s back. The biggest problem is the WiFi, most places are free but we still have to pay and even then it’s not brilliant. It may be ok for some people to say they don’t really want it but when you have children it’s very handy. Not just for screens but what tree is that? what bug is that? what else is on?. We use it for all sorts of things and it should be free and a far better signal. Other than that we love the site, to see the kids faces when the lions roar at night is wonderful. The wardens are really helpful, I am new to having a caravan after having a Motorhome for years so when the warden asked if we were ok or needed help my daughter and I were really grateful!

Lovely Site

We stayed here a couple of days ago, in order to visit Longleat’s Land of Light. Check in was safe, efficient and the warden was very friendly and helpful. I cannot recommend too highly.

First visit to Longleat site.

Visited this wonderful site in September, for a break and change of scenery. Impressed with the pitches and the friendly wardens who worked extremely hard to keep everything clean and safe for everyone. The site has many trees and open spaces and we felt so relaxed and welcome. We will definitely be returning to this site next year.

A site that is a roaring success

Ideally located for many North Somerset and Wiltshire attractions. Access is pretty reasonable but some care along the lanes is needed as cars cut through to a very close access road for Longleat Safari. We were there in bad weather and suggest care is taken on where to pitch if its acorn falling season!! Quite noisy when they land in the night. Plent of alternative pitches. Once experienced it is a lesson learnt!! Staff on site very helpful and supportive. The current electric hook-up posts are "old style" so you need to insert AND then TWIST clockwise. Quite a lot of us made the same mistake. In the night you can hear the lions roar and that in itself makes you glad they are locked in their compounds. Great for walking to parts of the longleaf and a few minutes to the main safari event. Overall great site. Great staff. Great experience.

Lovely friendly site

Our first ever caravanning holiday was a sheer delight thanks to Martin and Sharon, and the other caravanners who so generously helped us to set up and get our holiday started. The site is spacious and spotlessly clean. We didn't have children with us but could see what fun the little playground would be. Martin and Sharon welcomed us warmly, and kept a very friendly eye on us during our stay - a big shout out to them for doing this, which we greatly appreciated. The great fun of this site is its proximity to Longleat. We saw the train from our caravan, and our caravan from the train. During the day you can hear the sealions and nearly every night you can hear the lions roar. Owls started hooting at soon as darkness fell. It was magical. It's easy to get to if you follow the signs and although some of the road is narrow, if we could do it towing a caravan for the first time, it can't be that difficult. Thank you everyone.

Lovely birthday weekend

We have just returned from this site. We stayed there from 09-11 October 2020 for my birthday. It was spotless; all the shower and toilet blocks were spotless and cleaned regularly. The recycling, and waste bins were emptied regularly and the waste water areas were cleaned throughout the day. The shower blocks were clearly marked to address the Covid problem, with a wristband system that ensured social distancing was kept. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We have a dog and there was no problem accessing the dog walk with plenty of poo bins around. The site was perfectly flat so we did not have to use our ramps for our caravan. There was plenty of space on the pitches. The internet and TV signals were Ok, but we were not bothered with this, as we were with friends and this was not important to us. There are plenty of walks around and we had a lovely meal in The White Hart pub, which is on the entrance to the drive to the site. Thank you.

Purrr-fect location

Great location with Longleat Safari Pask on the other side of the trees. Sea-lions and Lions were heard in the evenings when it was feeding time!! Facilities were great, phone signal was poor but hey I'm on holiday and probably need a healthy break from my phone. Lots to do nearby. Cheddar Gorge, Wells, Wookey Hole, Stonehenge. I will definitely be returning next year. Staff were polite on entrance and gave a great welcome. No issues at all!

Lovely Stay

We recently booked for a friday saturday night at Longlet site. What a lovely park it is. in the grounds of Longleaf, although we didn't go to Longleaf park as we have dogs, we had a lovely time walking the country lanes, peaceful and quiet, great facilities and the pleasure of waking up to the seals in the park barking away, how lovely. Thank you had a great stay. Toilets were all clean and tidy and coves safe, plenty of motorhome facilities to use, again all clean. Friendly staff always said hello as we walked past the reception and around the grounds. great restful time, just what we wanted.

Lovely site, unique location, shame the wardens were nor friendly and helpful

I’ve read many other reviews about this site and most of them says how friendly and helpful the wardens were. Unfortunately this was not our experience and it sadly tarnished our visit. We stayed at this site with the intention of visiting Longleat Safari and house grounds as I’m sure is the intention of many visiting. We stayed Friday - Sunday but unfortunately could not get booked in on Saturday. As we have a caravan, I visited reception on Saturday to ask of the possibility of leaving our van on site if they had space whilst we enjoyed our visit to Longleat. I approached the question with some haste as we had received a rather hostile ‘welcome’ for forgetting our membership card (we are new, it was our first stay and we all make mistakes.. this is a holiday after all). The request was met with a rude, dismissive and unhelpful response but eventually we came to an agreement that we could leave our van for the day given they were not fully booked - as long as it was all packed up and ready to go (which was of course the intention). We had no phone signal all day (unfortunately a draw back of the site which isn’t improved by WiFi access because the WiFi is absolutely terrible as suggested in other reviews). During a rare occasion when my phone received signal I received a missed call notification and a voicemail threatening that if we did not collect our van in ‘5 mins’ we would be charged another night (I received the voicemail 45 mins after it was left). This experience completely ruined the rest of our day at longleat, we headed back to collect our van (3.45pm) and dropped the key fob in the post box as requested. One of the wardens immediately came to collect the fob and aggressively shouted at us as we left. I didn’t stop to see what they said as I was quite upset by the whole situation. Aside from this, the site was nice and clean, had good (not excellent but good) facilities, plenty of room and the location is excellent for longleat. There isnt a huge amount to do other than longleat unless you have a car but there are plenty of places to walk and cycle and it’s a beautiful area. The acorn trees mentioned in other reviews are a pain - we stayed in September and quite a few acorns dropped on our van overnight but there are some pitches that you wouldn’t get this problem. Sadly we wouldn’t go back due to our experience (I’ve also just noticed the review below mine that was clearly met by the same staff)
