Brilliant site for visiting Salisbury and surrounding areas

This is an excellent site and both sets of wardens (Lisa and Dave; Claire and Trevor) worked very hard to keep the site maintained to a very high standard whilst giving holiday makers a very warm reception. COVID 19 safety arrangements are really good and we would be very happy to stay at Salisbury Hillside again. We chose a lovely large pitch in a sheltered wooded glade without too much shade. Dog walk is a public footpath. (Leads eventually to a busy A road). The site directory indicates that this is a good site for walking and cycling. Unfortunately you need a car to find places to go to, in order to do these activities. Plenty of things to do and visit with a motor vehicle. Suggestions for local walks are Danebury Hill Fort and Bentley Wood, both easily accessible by car. Also worth visiting are Salisbury Cathedral, Stonehenge and Old Sarum. Would recommend the Lord Nelson at Winterslow and the White Hart at Stockbridge for food. We had a great stay.

compact litte site

as the name suggests, the site is on a hillside. There is only one facilities block at the top of the site but plenty of water points mean you don't have to drag water far. Facilities were spotless. Operating an individual band system given on arrival. Excellent and worked well. We've experienced all systems and personally think this works best. Wardens run a very well stocked shop which is appreciated. Pitches are in groups in clearings in the trees. They do tend to be cramped. Glad we have a mover. No sign of a childrens playground. Nowhere much to play. The dog walk is a public footpath and dogs must be lead walked. Niggly negatives aside, its a nice little site and we'd definitely stay again.

Little Gem

Lovely little site in beautiful countryside with glorious views. Very friendly and helpful wardens. Mix of pitches, some in small wooded glades others near the top in open grass area. Toilet facilities normal site standard with full Covid precautions. Plenty to visit in the area, including Salisbury, Stockbridge, Army museum of flying and Danbury Hill Fort. Wifi good at the top of the site and excellent TV reception. Returning very shortly.

Tranquil and welcoming

This was my first time out in my new camper and we had a very warm welcome, despite the difficulties created by the situation with Covid-19. The shower block and toilets were open and useable via a token system, though we only used them once as we had full facilities onboard. They were spotlessly clean even though the site was fully booked and hence busy. I really enjoyed the dog walk, though it's a little overgrown in places. The views out over the fields were stunning. I would definitely come back here again

You can see for miles

Staying here for 2 nights 18/19th July. The relief managers are on duty lovely friendly couple very polite and helpful and interesting to have a chat with . Site is immaculate, flowers and herbs, handy shop for bits . Everyone being sensible social distances but a friendly wave . Small dog walk on site , there is a bus stop at entrance but not a frequent service, would get you into Salisbury though. The view from the entrance is something, you can see for miles. Would use again definitely.

Our September visit to Salisbury Hillside

Lovely site and very handy for a visit to Salisbury on the Free Park and Ride. The wardens are friendly and keep the site lovely, especially the shower block. Shame that the wardens are leaving this year and just hope the new wardens live up to the excellent service that the previous wardens have given.

Fabulous 2 night stay

Had a great short stay at the Salisbury Hillside site early September. Steve and Emma were very welcoming and the site maintained to perfection! We especially liked the little touch of the radio playing in the background whilst showering! Our 2 dogs were equally welcomed and loved the stay too! We will definitely be going back!

Two Night Stay Over August Bank Holiday

We stayed over the very hot bank holiday weekend. Fortunately we arrived at midday Saturday and had a good choice of pitches so were able to choose a very shady spot overlooking a field (pitch 39). Site very quiet. We cycled into Salisbury although we would not recommend it at all (should of read the reviews beforehand!). There is a main road out of the site which is very busy and fast. The couple running the site are so friendly and very helpful. Small on-site shop was handy for milk, honey (local) and ice creams. Our friends with a toddler joined us for a BBQ. There isn't any children's play equipment, that wasn't an issue for us. We would stay here again as small, quiet site.

Close to Salisbury

Lovely Site, very friendly Warden team, thanks to Steve and Emma and on their days off, Anthony and Christian. The personal touches are evidence of very proud Custodians. Beautifully maintained Site with lovely views across meadows. Small village of Pitton (2 miles away), is worth a visit, nice 5 mile easy circular walk with local pub to finish off. Salisbury is a nice City, and despite having an entrance fee, the cathedral is worth viewing. Lots of quality independent eateries to choose from, market days are a must, great atmosphere although sadly, as with many central locations, City car parking is quite pricey! Will definitely return to this Site. Andrew & Julie

Perfect site for a lady by her self.

This really is a lovely site. I arrived on 24th June & left on the 28th June. Being a novice I'd like to thank the warden for helping me park up and the couples either side of me for helping. All the wardens were very friendly. Also had help on the Friday when I was preparing to leave from another couple who'd arrived mid week. The van is now booked in for motor movers. The facilities are spotless. I highly recommend this site, ideal spot for visiting Salisbury. Thank you for all your help Sheila Benton
