For families staying at the campsite, great attractions include the Downs Park: a cosy and safe place for young children to play and also an ideal picnic spot.
Many excellent cycle paths can be easily accessed from Baltic Wharf Club Campsite, including the Bristol to Bath path if you are feeling particularly energetic and adventurous. A selection of boat trips are available from the campsite, which makes for an excellent way to take in some of the most scenic views in this part of the county.

Perfect location and lovely warm welcome
Baltic Wharf Club Campsite
First time stay here and big thanks to Chelle and Lyndsay for everything they are doing to make this site so welcoming. Lovely touches, really loved Geoffrey the site dog’s recommendations! Facilities are spotless and the site is immaculate. So convenient for access to Bristol and took advantage of Chelle’s recommendations for food venues. Would definitely want to return.
One of our favourite sites
Baltic Wharf Club Campsite
Of the many sites we've stayed in, this is one of the best. It's a relatively small, secure and secluded site overlooking Bristol's floating harbour, to which it has direct access through a pedestrian gate. From here, it's a fifteen minute walk along the river to the shops and restaurants of Wapping Wharf, and a little further to Bristol's main shopping centre. Watershed film and media centre is also a short walk away, as is Arnolfini art gallery. The pub next door to the site - The Cottage Inn - does good food.
The facilities are clean with ample hot showers and the usual washing up area, laundry etc. The current managers, Lynsey and Chelle, are always welcoming and maintain the site in pristine condition.
The only negative thing about this beautiful site is that it's likely to be closed in 2025 for developers to build yet more flats in a city already strained to breaking point with a useless public transport system and heavily congested roads. This will mean the loss of an open space with many mature trees, and it will leave Bristol without any decent camping and caravan site.
Great City Centre Site
Baltic Wharf Club Campsite
We've stopped here several time and really love the location. If you are looking for peace and quite this may not be the site for you. Located in a busy and vibrant city you can often hear sirens and traffic and the general city centre noise, through in for good measure seagulls and sheets clicking against the masts of the boats outside the site. This for us is part of the charm off the site.
The Cottage Inn right next to the site is great for some afternoon drinks sat watching whats going on the harbour. From the site you are right onto the flouting harbour, from there you can walk all the way around with great bars and restaurants half way around.
Full marks to the Managers on site who do a great job of keeping an old site in the best possible condition they can. It will be a true loss to the site network when the lease finally runs out, until then we will keep coming back.
Perfect city break
Baltic Wharf Club Campsite
Excellent location for a city campsite although it is a little like a car park. The towpath outside is perfect for getting into the city and there is also a bus stop not far. The site stewards Lynsey and Chelle were really helpful, very professional and they are a real credit to the club network. Would highly recommend this site for anyone wanting to visit a buzzy vibrant city, with more restaurants than anywhere I’ve ever been!

Great location for a city break
Baltic Wharf Club Campsite
Visited this campsite for 3 nights in March. It’s basically a large car park with a (too) small facilities block but it is very well located. You can walk out of the back door and around the docks area, walk to SS Great Britain which is well worth a visit, walk ( or cycle) along the Avon to underneath Clifton Suspension Bridge and walk or catch a bus from outside the site to the centre and old part of Bristol. What more can you want from a city break.
