Why stay here ...

Visit Wiltshire offer a map and guide and lots of information on things to see and do for visitors to Salisbury, from beautiful scenery to a variety of activities, there is something for everyone. City parking is available but the easiest way into town is to use the Salisbury Park & Rides. These have an eight foot height limit, but over-height vehicles may park at the Britford site.

Salisbury Hillside Club Site is outstandingly set amidst rolling countryside, much of which is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This holiday getaway location is spread across several levels, giving you the choice of pitches with splendid views over the Hampshire countryside or those set in open woodland glades, with local wildlife on your doorstep. The caravan park offers excellent outdoor expeditions - you can leisurely take in the scenery by walking the Test Way and Clarendon Way or bike the Downs along charming countryside cycle ways.

Interesting places to visit during your caravanning trip to Wiltshire include the Broadlands at Romsey or one of the several lovely National Trust properties in the near vicinity. The area of Wiltshire itself is steeped in rich history and includes the World Heritage Site at Stonehenge. Other day trips that could be enjoyed from the site include the New Forest National Park with its wild ponies, the bustling south coast resort of Bournemouth, castles, plus a variety of woodlands and beaches. The caravan site is also a favourite stopover for a night or two whilst en-route to the Isle of Wight, the West Country or even France and Europe.

Over night stop

Stayed for 1 night on route to the West Country. Arrived about 6.30 pm and met by a pleasant warden. This site is very small and accessible on and off some pitches is a challenge , a motor mover is a godsend . Access road narrow and site facilities clean and tidy.

Good location for Salisbury and wide soft rolling Wiltshire landscape

We stayed here in the 2nd week of September 2020 for 4 days, and were happy with our experience. The facilities were run Covid Secure and the staff were more than helpful and friendly. The lead photo on the site is where we moved to on our 2nd day as it was more suited to our tastes - as most of the site is on a tight loop on the hillside in amongst trees and was a bit too shady for us. Finding the right spot that will be in the sun at the chosen time of day is pretty tricky so if you want the best location get there early. I was thrilled to find the Army Air museum is just 6 mins by car down the road in "The Wallops"! and it is only about 10 / 15 mins out of the centre of Salisbury. The CL site right next door has wide open vista's and is appealing but of course not all the facilities of the main site. The dog walk is attractive and while narrow gives vista's over lovely countryside. Herbs are available growing outside the reception. Thankyou! A good transit stop and fine for a short stay. Thank you to the staff for all their help.

Beautiful, peaceful, - one for the grown ups....

We stay here quite often as a quick weekend getaway as its only 5 miles from home. The side is small with tree surrounded "pods" for two, three or 4 units. Some are fairly close to each other. It's extremely tranquil and definitely not really one for the children (a bonus in some eyes as there is no play park.) I would say that some pitches are probably better for more experienced caravaners as access can be a little tricky but if you have them, motor movers are a god send! Lots of water points and bins/recycling all around the site so you're not far from sorting out the household chores. The shower and toilet block is at the top of the site and if you have any mobility issues its probably best to pitch there if you don't want a fairly steep walk up hill. The top "field" area near the facilities block and office gives the best sunshine all day as it is more open. Showers and loos are ALWAYS immaculate. I have just come home from a weekend and Trevor and Claire could not have been more friendly and accommodating after I'd messed up my booking. (I'd booked Sat and Sun night instead of Fri/Sat!) It was sorted out with no fuss and a smile! The access from the main road is easy (it's a fast A road so be careful of other traffic). Nearest shop (i think) is Nisa in Porton Village. They sell "Cook" frozen meals and the fish pie was absolutely delicious. Good choice of meats, bread, milk, booze etc. A little further into Salisbury is an Aldi for the big shop. Also a M&S at the BP garage if you want a bit more of a treat. The "Table Table" restaurant on the right hand side as you go into Salisbury is VERY lacklustre. No atmosphere, microwaved burger and chips type stuff. However, good service and relatively cheap. Great access to Salisbury which is lovely to visit. Don't miss Danebury Ring Iron Age Hillfort for great dog walking (but mind your valuables in the car park there). It's our nearest site so we will always visit! Love it!! 5 STARS x

Another great stay.

My wife and Dachshund stayed at Salisbury Hillside for the 2nd excursion out in the 'van, we also stayed there for the 1st. Coincidentally we were allocated the same pitch so setting up and finding things was easy. Set up was quicker than the first time, thankfully. The Bank Holiday weekend was busy but the site was still quiet and peaceful. The pitches are well spaced out and the hookups easy to get to and the water and waste facilities superb. The host are great, and chatty as well as being efficient and keep the park in a great condition. Drainage is great and the views are spot on from some of the pitches and a short walk from others. The dog walk left is short and pointless, but go to the right and the world opens up for access to many more walks. Danebury Hill Fort and Figsbury ring are close by and great walks. The track leading to Figsbury ring is challenging in anything but a Paris Dakar Racer :-) please take care. The views from both of these are spectacular. Salisbury Hillside is conducive to relaxing which is exactly what I needed and got. Tilshead Caravans are less than 2 miles away, and Webbs Caravans about 6 miles and both are superb just in case you need anything for your stay. We will be back for sure.

Lovely peaceful site

We have stayed here several times - the site is very peaceful, well maintained (thank you warden team) and convenient to lots of interesting days out - this time we visited Stonehenge and the Museum of Army Flying, both pre-booked online, of course! The CAMC have worked hard to make use of shared facilities COVID safe but sadly not everyone is respecting the armband system - twice in one morning I arrived to find no armbands on the 3 hooks yet two and then three cubicles inside in use. Come on, folks, do your bit too! A torch could be useful if you want to walk up to the loo block at night as although lighting on the road is there, it is low level and not intrusive - depends how happy you are to walk in the dark! Also, it would seem wise to follow guidance and not arrive before12.00 - there is minimal manoeuvring room on the entry point and I watched two vans having to edge their way out very slowly past an over-keen early arrival.
