Why stay here ...

Longleat Club Site in Warminster is one of the network's most unique locations - where else in the UK or Europe can you hear lions roaring at night from the comfort of your bed? Set in beautiful parkland, the caravan park is located in the midst of the lovely Longleat Estate. The area's famous Safari Park, first to be opened outside Africa, is literally on the doorstep of the Longleat Club Site.

Please note that Longleat are not able to accept dogs within the grounds or attractions. There are other beautiful walks also available from the Club side of the road that members can enjoy freely and at their own leisure.

There are several pubs within a 2 mile radius (a lovely walk on a summers evening) and a short drive will bring you to the lively towns of Bath and Bristol. The Roman, Regency and 20th century Bath being a special favourite for visitors touring in Wiltshire. Still famous as a spa, you can take to the waters and literally soak yourself in history. With winding streets and pretty listed buildings, Frome is about 15 minutes from the site. Several fascinating nearby sites of historic interest include Stonehenge, Avebury Neolithic monument and Lacock Abbey.

Alternatively, turn left off the A36 Warminster bypass (Salisbury - Frome) at the roundabout onto the A362 (signposted Frome). In about 0.5 mile at the roundabout take the A362 (third exit) to Frome. After 2.25 miles turn into Lane End next to the Longleat Tavern public house. Continue past the Safari Park Entrance and Stalls Farm before turning left again. The site entrance is 200 metres on left. This is the only permitted entry route for caravans and motorhomes. Please note that estate routes may change in the case of a special event. Note: When using sat nav for directions to the site, please use the postcode BA12 7PH ( pub at Lane End on the A362), and follow the brown direction signs to site. If coming from the Warminster direction on the A362 please do not attempt to take the first left after the Royal Oak pub as this lane is far too narrow.

Not Just for Kids

We had been to Longleat for a long weekend some 6years ago, primarily to meet with another part of the family who were using the site with their kids,but when we were busy scanning the sites to find the venue for this year's Autumn break we decided to perhaps give it another go - even though we were kidless for this trip just 3 adults and one hyper spaniel. What a good decision, the site had far more to offer than we remembered. Lovely autumn setting with the mature trees all around the site leading to an ambundance of squirrels and the occasional hoot of owls competing with the lion roars at night. Yes it is a little frustrating to find you can't walk into the grounds of the house when it is so close, but there are a number of walks available from the site utilising the numerous bridle paths and quiet lanes. Stourhead is an obvious draw within a 30/40 min drive and doesn't disappoint with a number of walks available without having to pay to go into the gardens. Bradford upon Avon another lovely spot within easy reach. A minor irritation was the seasonal closure of one of the loo blocks and then having to queue for a shower. And it is a site where timing of arrival and departure is key with a narrow lane immediately off the main road. Surprised arrivals aren't restricted to 1300 to prevent any meeting of outfits leaving close to 1200. But a great, muddy and sometimes wet Autumn break. We'll be back!

Superb site.

We visited this site in May 2019. We came to visit Longleat Park and house. The whole site was spotlessly clean. The wardens were possibly the most helpful wardens I’ve ever met. They helped us with taxis to a nearby pub and were brilliant on arrival. They kept a surprise from my wife while we checked in as she didn’t know we were meeting friends. We heard the sea lions and the lions in the evening. The site and the Safari Park are so good we’re returning in a weeks time with different friends.

Regular Pass Holder

Wonderful site and facilitates that provides easy access to all that is Longleat. Regular and annual events are within a gentle short walk from the site which is ideally located to support whole family entertainment. All the site facilities are very good with cleanliness being the order of the day. Will continue to visit for many years to come!

Great experience at the Safari Park

We went to this site specifically to visit the Safari Park and it didn't disappoint. We should have booked our tickets in advance through the Club Website, but I missed this point and had to book it the night before through my phone. This wasn't easy as the phone signal is quite poor there. It's a very simple walk from the site to the Safari with no need to take your car. You can take the Bus Trip around the park, which only costs £5 per person with excellent commentary from the driver. The damage done to the cars by the monkeys was quite shocking but great fun to watch from the safety of the bus. The site facilities are very clean and the wardens work hard to achieve this - although they could be a bit more friendly as they go about their daily tasks. National Trust is well represented in this area. I would recommend Stourhead which is beautiful. There are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets in the surrounding towns. You are unlikely to go hungry. We would have no problem in recommending this site to our friends.
