 We stayed here for 5 nights over the bank holiday and had a brilliant time. The site is very well maintained & clean & there is plenty to do for the family in the surrounding area. The beach is about 5 mins walk, and brean leisure park about 10 mins walk with lots of different shops along the way. My daughter loved the fact that we were pitched opposite the little park, and she enjoyed walking along the dog walk looking at the ducks on the fishing lakes and the horses in the fields. The shop on site has everything you need & they also have a take-away or eat in fish & chip shop which was nice. Prices are reasonable & staff are very helpful. We will def be returning here again.

 We picked this site for a long weekend away having read so many great reviews on this site. I must say, we weren't disappointed. Even the booking process was good. Spoke to a lady called Jenny who was extremely helpful. They keep a note of your name, address, car reg and tent so that should you make return visits, they already have that information to speed the booking process up further.

On arrival the welcome was just as pleasant as the booking process. We were given a map and shown where to go to our field and told that we could choose any of the unoccupied pitches (at busier times such as the weekend arrivals and main weeks you are escorted to a pitch but we arrived midweek after the summer school hols had ended).

Pitches are all well marked out and there are plenty of drinking water taps dotted around so you don't have far to go to carry water. It's worth mentioning that as we drove around the site I was amazed by the sheer size of it and I did worry a little that being a big site it would be noisy and the facilities dirty but this wasn't the case at all.

There are plenty of toilet/shower blocks around as well. These are kept very clean and tidy at all times. Showers cost 50p a time but you don't mind paying that when they're clean and hot! Each block had toddler rooms where you could 'bath' your child in Belfast style sinks.

Our little fella was more than happy with that and those rooms were always very warm. Considering how busy the site was I was surprised that I never had to queue for the toilets, showers or toddler room! Dishwashing facilities at the back of the toilet blocks were good, several large sinks with good sized drainers. Again, I didn't have to queue.

There is no bar or club on the site but it's not far to walk into Brean if that's what you're looking for. Personally, this set up suits us quite nicely, no noise from on site clubs but it's close enough if we want to make use of it at any point.

There is a well stocked and reasonably priced shop. Camping equipment and an ice block exchange facility can be found in reception, it's £2 per block deposit plus 20p to hire them. You then pay 20p to exchange them and you get the deposit back when you return them.

There is a cafe/takeaway on site, we didn't get to use the cafe but we did use the takeaway a couple of times and the food was lovely and again, not too badly priced for a seaside resort and holiday park!

There are plenty of playgrounds for the children to use. The one near our tent was good but on our last full day we took a walk around another bit of the site and found one that was possibly better still! So it's worth having a look around and maybe using them all!

There are plenty of things to do in Brean. Swimming, leisure park/fair, shops, pubs, restaurants, takeaways, etc, etc. And of course the beach! There is a bus service to Burnham on Sea and Weston Super Mare that stops fairly close to the site.

Timetables are available on request in reception - the times are given for the stop by the leisure centre but there are bus stops just near the entrance as I mentioned.

Overall a fantastic site, very friendly and helpful staff and we will most definitely be returning there at some point next year.

 We went camping to this site three times last year and I've just got to say how fantastic it is. The toilets are very clean especially in the No Dog field. My daughter absolutely loved the amount of parks that were on offer at this campsite to the extent we hardly saw her as that's where she spent most of her time.

The facilities of the shop were great and any little thing you might need they had. I like the fact that I could hire ice blocks for a £2 refundable deposit and only 20p per exchange.

Great value for money.

 Stayed for 3 nights, 2 adults and 2 children (aged 6 and 2).

Upon arrival we were quickly checked in by friendly helpful staff and given a useful info pack on the area. Further staff then showed us to our field where we could pick our pitch from those available.

In all dealings we had with the staff they were excellent, friendly and very helpful. The security guard carries out regular patrols around the site throughout the night and quickly asks anyone making too much noise and causing a disturbance to tone things down. If only other sites were as diligent.

The toilet and shower facilities are superb, very clean and modern.

This is a very big site spread over several fields, with each one having its own toilets/showers and play areas. The play areas are like the other facilities here, superb, very well kept.

Despite being a large site and despite being full we never had to queue for toilets/showers/washing up sinks etc.

On site takeaway and supermarket are great (proper chips at the takeaway, not frozen fries you get at a lot of places) and the prices are good.

Access to the beach can be a bit of a trek if walking, especially with little ones and lots of kit (picnic bag, buckets spades etc). That said for £2.50 you can drive your car onto the beach and park all day, well worth it.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, couldn't fault anything and will certainly return again. Highly recommended.

 Excellent clean site!

We stayed for a short break (Fri-Mon) & would have liked to have stayed longer.

We arrived on site and at reception were met with smiling, friendly faces. Staff gave us lots of useful local information.

We were shown to our field (No dog 2) by a helpful chap where we could choose an available pitch.

Great field, pitch large & well sheltered. Fabulous toilet/shower block a couple of minutes away.

Drinking water taps are plenty and a short stroll from where ever you are.

Site is huge and there are several different adventure playgrounds dotted around in each field for the kids.

Plenty of pegs on the fishing lakes. We didn't do too bad - carp, roach, bream & eel (much to our little ones delight!)

Shop & take away very reasonably priced. The meals in the restaurant were huge!

Seagull Inn (10 min walk away) was a great venue but packed out. We didn't get any where to sit on our visits as 2/3 of the venue is adults only seating which I felt was little unfair. We did get to see some great entertainment though.

Brean leisure park was pretty good. During the weekend there was a market & car boot and we managed a few bargains. Kids enjoyed the rides (wristbands the best way to go though) Tokens for rides are 50p each and decent rides take 4+ tokens!

Pony/horse rides on the beach were great value. £2 for a short trek or £8 for 3 miles. Kids loved this!

All in all a great chilled break enjoyed by myself, husband and daughters (aged 13 & 6)

We are already planning our next visit to Northam Farm - very highly recommend it!

Reviewer: Tracy73 1 review from this member

 We spent a full week at this superb caravan site.On arrival we were greeted by helpful,friendly staff who gave us information regarding all amenities. We were then shown to our pitch and told we could pick wherever we wanted within the premier area.

Toilets and showers were 5 star without a doubt.50p for a six minute shower with lovely hot water.

On-site cafe was extremely good and quite cheap too.

Whole campsite was very clean just a shame the grass is so dry but that's the weather.

The Seagull pub serves good food and excellent entertainment !

The beach is excellent.Everything is within walking distance.

The children's playgrounds are dotted everywhere and they are all amazing, well kept,safe etc.

 Just returned home from a weeks holiday in Breen and a stay at Northam Farm we received a warm welcome and were escorted to our pitch which was hard standing & a very good size.

Northam Farm is a large site & with it being school holidays very busy the kids play areas were well used,we found the site to be clean & tidy the toilet block we used was kept clean although the showers were not the best we`ve used and cost 50p but okay.

The on site cafe/chippy were good value & the food we had was nice,the shop was not over priced,there is also a small camping shop in reception where you can acquire the basics.

Overall we enjoyed our stay the site is just a short stroll from the sandy beach & same from bBreen leisure park the road through Breen can get very busy, there isn`t that much to do in Breen itself but there are plenty of places to visit in Somerset reception has all the leaflets.

 On arrival the site looked like a lot of other seaside commercial sites which we have visited but with very few static units. The site has lovely lakes for fishing and some nice dog walks where my children also enjoyed feeding the horses left over carrots and apples.

The showers were well laid out and warm and there were lots of cubicles for washing. There was also a good room for bathing babies and a bath which is grest for kids who don't like showers. There are lots of water points which means you never have to walk very far with heavy carriers and the shop was well stocked and reasonable prices. You could also get cashback without buying anything for just 50p. The beach is clean and accepts dogs and is an easy walk away from the site.

The downside of this site was you had to pay for the showers and baths and had no control over the temperature or amount of water in the bath. The toilets very quickly became very dirty after they had been cleaned. The service in the shop was often slow. The play area for the children was covered in bits of cans from teenagers pulling them apart and they were along way away from our pitch so our children couldn't really use it.

 Just returned from Northam Farm, I am a firm believer that your welcome upon arrival sets the standard of the park, Arrived at 5 ish Friday night to a wonderful reception and a speedy check in, we were given a myriad of information about the local area and amenities.

We were escorted to our pitch in 8 Acre field, the pitches are a good size for the tent and the car, there was a decent size playpark only 25m away which was perfect for the kids to play in while we set up the tent.

The Toilet blocks are immaculate and one of the best we have used in a few years camping, the on site shop was reasonably priced and well stocked, the on site chippy was cheap and very tasty for a quick meal.

I would rate this park in the top 3 I have stayed at ever, so much so we are going back in August.

No complaints and you couldn't ask for a friendlier service across the whole park.

 When staying in Brean previously we have always used a neighbouring site which was full when we wanted to book. After checking reviews of Northam Farm we decided to pay a visit. We were not disappointed. Check in was friendly and we were directed well to our field where we could choose a pitch. All the pitches were good sizes and the field was well sheltered by surrounding trees.

The toilet/shower block was a short stroll from the field and was clean at all times. This was quite a busy weekend but there were ample toilets and showers along with privacy wash cubicles.

There is a shop on site which was not too badly priced for a site shop and again was friendly. The cafe/take away was good value. We had a lovely breakfast for £3.00 each and one evening stopped off for mini fish and chips at £1.99, this was definitely mini but lovely and good value.

All the fun of Brean is just a flat three quarter mile walk. All in all I was more than happy on this site and would definitely return. I also found it very reasonable as we paid just £12.75 for two adults, two children and a pup tent as extra.
