We just spent a week here as it is close to friends and family. It is conveniently located close to towns and cities (i.e. Frome, Bath etc) for those wet days, if your unlucky enough to get them, but also some beautiful countryside including the NT Stourhead estate and of course the Longleat estate. Our first pitch selection was not the best as we had an oak tree dropping acorns on the roof. A bit like Chinese water torture. That's now on our selection criteria for Autumn trips. The site was well maintained and very clean, up to the best of CC site standards. A slight drawback is the distance back to the main road from the site (about 2 miles) and the circular routes you have to take to navigate around the Longleat estate, but that is a minor issue really. We visited the 'Horse and Groom' pub on our first evening. On the Thursday night it was very quiet and the bar staff a bit inexperienced (Q. What have you got on draft? A. That would be Ale would it? You'd better go and have a look, lol). There was also no evidence of food hygiene rating. We did think the menu was far too ambitious for a small pub like this. It's also not the easiest place to get to by road and it's a good 30-40 minute brisk walk to get there over the Longleat roads. However we had a good large and reasonably priced meal and the pub has a lot of character with lovely flowers outside. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay at this site and managed to visit my old mum and friends in Bath. May well visit again in the future.
