We went to Longleat as last minute getaway, close to home. It is quite a big site but it does not feel like that when you are on it. The facilities are excellent and well maintained. The safari park is very close and a 10 minute walk to the house. Vehicular access is only a few minutes back up the access road. You do get some noise from the park but it did not bother us and you can hear the animals on occasion, especially the sea lions. You are also close to some quaint Wiltshire and Somerset villages so plenty to see away from the park. We stumbled across Somerset Lavender www.somersetlavender.com/ which was a bit different with a tea room and shop. We had a lovely relaxing weekend and will definitely go again.
