Fra bestyreren: Hi Duncan
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed our site and found it to be up there with the best! We really look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Thanks for leaving a review!

Syntes om: We loved this small site with a laid back approach.
The location was great to get to the pier to pier cycle route. The friendly owner met us and showed us to our pitch, although if he hadn’t spotted us, there was a board showing our pitch for us.
Compost toilet was cleaned regularly, showers hot and face wash facility basic, but fitted perfectly with the site 👍🏻
The orchard was a lovely setting. We loved our time here and will be returning.

Syntes ikke om: Nothing - a great little find

Syntes om: Lovely site. Easy arrival and good communication prior to arrival. Facilities good and showers hot. Our 4 year old had a great time. On the pier to pier cycle route to Clevedon and Weston so ideally located.

Syntes ikke om: Hard stony ground means you will need strong tent pegs.

Syntes om: Absolutely fantastic site, we loved the setting within the orchard, although on a working farm it was very peaceful
There was a board on the gate at the entrance to the site allocating your place which was helpful when arriving and the pitches were well marked
We met the owner David who was very helpful
This was the first time we had stayed on a greener camping club site and loved the concept, we will be back

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our little orchard campsite, we are pleased that you found the site peaceful and with adequate signage and also that you love the concept of the greener camping club! We look forward to welcoming you back next season!

Syntes om: From the ease of booking and payment online, to arriving at the picturesque orchard the whole experience was magical.
My name and pitch was written on a white board attached to the gate of the pretty orchard where we pitched up.
The green toilets were well built and beautifully adorned with picked flowers from the lovely adjacent border filled with a colourful array of Many varieties.
A scoop and fresh smelling sawdust in a small dustbin kept everything clean and odourless.
With a good supply of toilet paper and hand wash outside.

Plenty of very hot water available for washing up and showering.

We walked from the site along the lane, then alongside the river towards the harbour, over towards the beautiful church with its glorious gardens, up to the coastal path.
Great views across to the pier and arriving by the out door swimming lido.
Stopping at the Salthouse pub, ( as you do), before the walk through the houses and back towards the site.

The sunshine was glorious next morning and as we cooked our breakfast outside we enjoyed the birdsong and watching the swifts circling above us in the blue skies.

I appreciate the weather makes a huge difference to any camping experience and we were lucky.
But it’d been cloudy the day before when we arrived.

However this little gem of a site is simply lovely.
Thanks to all who run it so efficiently.
Well done.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your wonderful review of our little orchard site and surrounding area. We are over the moon when people enjoy staying here! We really hope to welcome you again next season!

Syntes om: Beautiful little site, close to local amenities, shop and golf club. Clevedon is around 2 miles away via the peir to peir cycle route. The walk is full of beautiful scenery, it’s flat and easy for those that are mobile. This is a small site on the back of an established farm. Access is through a suburban area, 3 miles from j20 m5, making it an ideal stop over. Facilities toilets, showers and washing up area. Having never used a compost toilet and I have to say it worked well, the showers were pipping hot too! Central fire pit was a really nice feature and would be great if you were camping with friends. Best bit for us was location and easy walk to Clevedon with the proximity to cycle track.

Syntes ikke om: There isn’t an Elsan which we’d clearly missed in the write up. Site facilities are more than adequate to use so not a massive issue but I do like a night time toilet visit without having to go outside, which would limit the time we could spend on the site.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for taking the time to leave a lovely review for our site. We are happy to hear that you found all of our facilities adequate and were able to enjoy the surrounding area too!
We will be researching our options and the feasibility for implementing an Elsan disposal for next season and would love to welcome you back!

Syntes om: Very pleasant 2 night stay, a friendly and welcoming site with good level ground to pitch our tent,clean facilities and hot water, nice to have camp fires in evening with logs provided, local walks into Clevedon, also a great cycle way would recommend and will be looking forward to going again soon

Fra bestyreren: Thank you so much for your positive review, we are always so happy to hear that our campers enjoy what we have to offer. We'd love to welcome you back soon! :)

Syntes om: Quiet, tidy, spacious pitches.
Amazing Showers. Atmosphere was pleasant and chilled,
Great facilities and info about the area. Will definitely look to come back again.

Syntes ikke om: Not really a dislike as the site was lovely... but an improvement... having a roof / shelter over the hand washing sinks like the washing up sinks do would be helpfully in damper weather.

Fra bestyreren: Hi Guys
Thank you for your review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your time here in our orchard and found our campsite to be pleasant and well equipped.
You are the second person to have commented regarding a roof/shelter over the hand/face wash sinks and this is something that we aim to add over the winter months ready for the 2025 season!
We look forward to welcoming you back!

Syntes om: Little campsite in the orchard, close to seaside, bars and shops. Clean toilets and showers with plenty of hot water.
