One of the best

We spent six nights on this lovely site in July. I spoke to Jane a few days before we arrived and she said that if she wasn’t around just set up on our pitch which would be marked with our name. Jane has it well organised for when people leave/arrive. Directions were easy to follow from the book/internet and we didn’t find the traffic noise intrusive, in actual fact it was very peaceful. Plenty to do in the local area, we haven’t seen all yet so will go back.

Great for a stopover off M5, but stayed longer to appreciate lovely area.

We stayed here to break our 380 mile journey from Yorkshire to Cornwall, but spent two nights to give us a full day there. The area is fascinating, being the edge of the Somerset Levels, with drainage ditches 'rhynes' all around, and though we visited Clevedon two years ago we cycled in and really appreciated what a lovely coastal town it is. The site is very good, our pitch was marked with our name, facilities were fine, and Jane soon came over to welcome us and check all was ok. It was extremely good value at £15 without any extra for electric. The village is very near the M5, so there is inevitable road noise, but I chose it for its location near the motorway, and the sound is something you can get used to. The Strawberry Line rail trail is nearby at Yatton, and I rode the first section, but we would have gone all the way down to Cheddar had we had longer.

Lovely quiet CL

Stayed for 4 nights, could have spent much longer and still not run out of things to do. Easy cycling to Clevedon and very short drive to the Strawberry line at Yatton. 20 min walk to the coast on the edge of the Somerset Levels. Site is lovely with good spacing between units, that the site was nearly fully booked all through our stay, backs up the great reviews.

Great site

We booked for 5 nights in early August. The site is a little gem very well looked after and plenty of space. the access is nice and wide. just watch for cyclists when coming out. Jane is very friendly. we went home for a week and then back for another 5 nights. That speaks for itself. Nice central location for visiting many places of interest.

Peaceful Site

Stayed here on our way up from South Devon for 10days. It was ideal as we have elderly relatives who live in Portishead and we wanted to visit them. Lovely greeting by Jane after our arrival. Beautiful surroundings and oh so quite and peaceful. We and our 4 dogs visited many nearby places during our stay as well as our relatives. Will definitely stay again next year on our way back up from South Devon *****

A lovely site

We booked this site at very last minute as we were on our way back home from Cornwall to the Midlands but wanted a stopover for a few days more to extend our holiday. Telephoned the site and the owner, Jane, couldn't of been more helpful as unfortunately they were booked up for the first night and there was a maximum of 5 already on site. We wanted to stay 4 nights but lo and behold she called her friend next door who was more that happy for us to stay on a small patch of land near her farmhouse for our first night moving to the CL in the morning. Well what an absolute gem of a find Ballards Acre is, damned near a perfect level field with a easy access and ample room to position our twin axle caravan. There is loads of space between other units, EHU, Elsan point and water supply perfect. This really is a very peaceful site with even a grass tennis court adjoining, sadly not in use due to COVID restrictions. We loved the tranquility, Jane is very friendly and couldn't do enough to ensure we were completely happy. We will most certainly be returning here.

A gem of a place

Used this lovely CL for one night en route to Cornwall but could easily have stayed longer. Quiet and surrounded by lovely countryside. A sign on entering Kingston Seymour would have been helpful as it's along a long lane and we thought we may have missed it but our 7.4 metre caravan was able to access with ease. Lovely big pitches, good clean facilities and a charming owner. We will return.

Really lovely and peaceful site

It was my first time staying in a CL site and I now understand the appeal. So peaceful with only 5 units, really nice large pitches on flat grass, and a warm welcome from the owner. There is nothing I can fault. This place is perfect for my needs as I am quite self sufficient and don't run a load of gadgets at the same time. Only the sound of ducks and sheep to disturb you. I will definitely be back.

Gem of a site!

Jane is very welcoming and her site is easy to get to and access. Beautifully kept site and so peaceful. Huge pitches and all mostly level. Six amps did not bother us and this was excellent value for money. Ideal stop over to and from the West Country, but also for longer stays in Clevedon - quaint Victorian town - and also not too far from Weston super Mare with its huge sandy beaches. Several walks from site along footpaths and quiet country lanes. Highly recommended and thanks to Jane for her hospitality.
