A quiet and peaceful site.

In the main we enjoyed our stay at Longleat. The site was virtually empty throughout which added to the relaxed feel of the stay. If the site was full I suspect that the toilet blocks may be inadequate at peak times. Access to the site is an issue. Always ensure that you follow the directions as per the sites handbook. Sat-navs may well direct you down a very narrow series of roads which the handbook warn against using. I would stress the importance of taking the advised route only. One thing that members should be aware of is that if a refill gas bottle is needed then bank cards are not accepted at Longleat, cash only. I am unsure how widespread this is throughout other club sites but it was the first I knew of it. I needed a gas bottle refill and as I did not know the rule I turned up at the office with bank card in hand. I was not trusted to take the full bottle to my caravan and return with the cash because the warden had 'been caught out like that before'. If I was leaving the site the next day then possibly there may have been some risk but I was not due to leave for another four days. That lack of trust soured the stay.

Another great weekend away at Longleat.

We first visited this site last December when we stayed for the weekend to test out our new caravan :o) We attend the festival of light at the safari park and whilst it was winter time, the site was clean, well laid out and the shower blocks clean and warm. The staff were also great and really helpful and friendly. We were so impressed with site and experience we returned there last weekend arriving on the Friday and leaving on the Sunday. (22.03.19 to 24.03.19) Again, the site was clean and the staff helpful and very friendly, even coming over to help me when I was having an electrical hook up issue. The location to the safari park is excellent and what we do is drive through the safari to see the animals, then return to the site to park up, then walk back into the safari park via the road that runs up the side of the caravan site taking you back inside within minutes. Our two young daughters have a great time here, on site and off. There's a children's play area on site plus a children's club house with a pool and table tennis table, TV & DVD player and various activity books and sticker sheets to use. We plan to return later in the year for the balloon festival and whilst talking to Gail (staff member) whilst packing up to leave Sunday she was a little concerned the site maybe fully booked already, so whilst I was packing up she went to the site office and booked a place for us to ensure we could attend the festival and stay at Longleat. It was a blessing Gail did this for us as there was only two pitches were left on the whole site for that weekend. Gail then emailed over the confirmation to me and handed me the booking ref. First class customer support and a BIG thank you Gail. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Back Again.

So, having just returned home from another visit to the site, mainly to see Longleat’s Festival of Light, (which is really impressive for adults as well as youngsters) I feel that everything I wrote on an earlier review is completely endorsed in this visit. We’d already bought an annual pass to Longleat 🦁 so we’ll definitely be returning to this site numerous times in 2019.

Great site 👍🏻

Having just returned home from 3 brilliant nights here, we reckon this to be one of the best Caravan Club sites we’ve visited. - The location to Longleat House & Safari Park was the main reason for us booking, but the site itself is so tranquil, clean and well maintained and the wardens are so very helpful and knowledgeable that we’ve added this to our ‘visit again’ list. - We’ve actually booked to return again in a few weeks. There’s an excellent dog walking area here, which is sadly lacking in so many other Caravan & Motorhome Club sites. (I find that quite strange) The only downside of this site if you’re a motorhome owner with no tow car (as we are), that the site is a bit remote with no nearby bus service, however the recommended walks more than compensate for this as does the Longleat attractions. —-Definitely a 5 star site rating from us—-

Great site for a visit to Longleat

Stayed here for three nights from 2nd October to visit Longleat House and Safari Park. Access to site is about two miles down a narrow lane with passing places. There are Club signs along the road to point you in the right direction. Well laid out with spacious pitches. Everything was as you would expect from a Club Site. TV booster point in EHU. Due to the time of year only one set of facilities were open, but that was fine as the site was far from busy. Just a 50yd walk from the site entrance takes you to the back entrance of Longleat. The only down side to the site is that there is nothing else of interest close by. The excellent informtion room gives walks in the area, directions to pubs and supermarkets in Frome or Wincanton. Thoroughly recommended.

Another lovely stay

Been coming here for many years, and it just gets better and better, now I’m on my own with a small Campervan I find the wardens so helpful and accommodating, especially when I had problems with my vans gas bottles, and a friend with her water drainage system, the site is all you would expect from a five star Caravan Club location, and out of season is peaceful and relaxed, but the icing on the cake is service given with a smile 😊

Perfect Site

What a lovely peaceful site. We could not hear any noise apart from birds singing. The site itself is very well laid out, the pitches are a very good size. The facilities are excellent and spotlessly clean. It is very nice to have a shower where you don't have to keep pressing buttons. The staff were very welcoming and helpful.

Nice site, limited access to anything other than Longleat.

The Bank holiday was our first visit to the site, it wasn't full which should have told us something.. The site itself is clean and well laid out. We are new to this clamping this year, however, this is the only site we have stayed at where noise on the site was intrusive. There is another review recently about noise, and I agree fully with it. There was a child on a bike riding around with a siren on, non stop... I full accept children will play, and we have 2, however, I didn't at all, ever see a parent with this child, he was all over the site, and generally a pain to be frank. Our neighbours only had one volume setting, Loud, and there children who were older were again louder trying to compete with their parents. At 2230 at night when they are the only van to be heard enough is enough... There was no sign on life from staff at all, and there weren't seen on site, other than doing jobs. We purchased WiFi for 24 hours, to see what it was like, it was so bad, we spoke to the staff and as nice as they were we got told there were two many people on it... Well thats helpful ! So we paid for something which didn't work... We paid for 3 nights, we left after 1, would we go back, unlikely, this is the worst site we have stayed on thus so far... Do not get me wrong, it is far from being a bad site, however, unless your visiting Longleat, (We weren't) we found it lacking in offering anything at all... Staff are very friendly, and the site is clean and the toilets etc are up to those on other clubs sites. Ideal for Longleat, but maybe not for you if your not attending Longleat.

Great Site, Great Staff

This is a great site for families with great staff who are all really friendly and helpful, a trip around the safari park is a must with the kids. It's great to be able to hear the Sea Lions calling in the evening with the occasional roar from the Lions too. Will definitely be recommending this site to others.
