I know a few members are like us and mix in a few none Club Sites into a tour. Thought I would open up a thread for folks to post website links to any nice sites they come across, that might interest others.

This one to start with http://www.thamesheadinn.co.uk/camping-caravan-sites-cirencester-glos.html

Just off A433 few miles from Cirencester, so ideal for Cotswolds area. Plenty to see and do in area, Pub is nice for food.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned Barley Meadow Touring Park, a few miles East of Okehampton and is ideally located close to the A30 so is an ideal stop on the way to Cornwall.

The park is beautifully landscaped,hardstanding and grass pitches, tents allowed. Absolutely first class facilties. Dogs allowed but Adult only. Pricing is simple as there are only two seasons- High season is July and August and the few days around the normal Bank Holidays. All other times is Low season.

We wil definitely use again if we are passing by.

Here's one in Mid Wales that was pointed out to us by WN when we needed a site with Hardstanding.

Over the Farmer's Gate, Glangwy Farm, Llangurig.  https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=4409

It is a small commercial site that used to be a C&CC CS but is no longer. There are about 15 seasonal vans on site but also a number of H/ S pitches with EHU, grass pitches and a tent area. There are 2 toilets and a separate single shower/toilet. It is just over 1/4 ml off the A44 a mile outside of Llanguric. There are walks into the forest and along the R.Wye from the site.

The problem with Tagg Lane Nellie is the noise from the nearby A515. We’ve stayed at a CL just a tad further along and the quarry lorries can be quite noisy from very early on. To be fair the previous CL was nearer to the road than their new site but, personally, I would find the noise intrusive. Each to their own though.

They don't mention regularly their web site, I wonder why?wink

Good to have first hand information on these small sites. Thanks.

Here’s a lovely spot at Siblyback lake and away from the crowds in Cornwall. Four grass pitches and four hard standing - electricity available and optional, toilets too and a really good cafe now run by the Olive and Co. team from Liskeard. Motor homes the size of the ones in the photo can get in but the access is impossible for caravans. Don’t even try. Popular at weekends but hardly anyone there midweek today. Details and prices on SW Lakes Trust website.

👍Thanks for that one EuroT. We used to visit Siblyback for windsurfing and canoeing many years ago. Bodmin Moor is a bit like Dartmoor for larger vehicles, you have to know your way on and off. Some tiny little roads😁
