 We stayed here for the last week in August. It was very busy but our field was fairly quiet compared to other fields. We were only a minute away from the loos and shower blocks which were some of the best we have used.
The kids play areas were good with one just round the corner more suitable for older children. Our son made quite a few friends whilst there. Went for a walk on Brean Down, the views were spectacular and we were treated to a display by the Red Arrows (definitely the best place to see them from). It was very windy whilst we were there but perfect for flying kites on the beach.
Very busy around the Leisure Park but no noise at our site. Mostly cooked our own meals but did have a couple out, the Riverside in Cheddar - pricey! and the Lamb Inn at Weare which was good food and very reasonably priced and staff very friendly. All in all good holiday, good campsite and will go again.

A big site, reception and all areas of the site are clean and very tidy. Decent shop with fresh bread and pasties (smelt wonderful).
We were on saver no dog field 3 - which was near the back of the park. Much quieter here, although the shower/toilet block was about 5 mins walk away. But you didn't mind that as the facilities in the block was fantastic. Piped music, heated, curtained wash basin cubicles. Showers hot and clean (50p for 8 mins). Cleaned regularly.
Would definitely come back here again.

We keep going back to this site the staff are friendly and helpful even the lady who obviously owns the park takes time to speak to everyone when passing on route to the reception. We have used the site during the school holidays and weekends when it can be very noisy around the toilet block areas why is it when given a proper play ground children have to hang around on bikes skate boards where cars are parking to use facilities.
We always pitch on lake side or 8 acres which are more spacious then the row upon rows which are closest to the entrance. The take away is good value sometimes have to wait at peak times. We don't often use the Seagull Inn best to go after nine as the number of small children has reduced some acts are well worth watching food a little expensive but the conserverty is more pleasant to dine. This area has something for everyone
The beach is close and if you don't want to carry everything its reasonable to park the car on the sands. Good markets on the leisure park and Burnham is well worth a vist also not far via the lanes into Weston. Not a site for anyone who wants peace and solitude great for families and
Excellent for disabled visitors they have disabled suite on all fields.
We will be spending a week there in sept.

We have visited this camp site several times and really enjoy it.
The only thing that took some of the shine off it this visit was that although we booked 2 Lakeside pitches (one for my sister), when we arrived there was only one free. Apparently somebody had gotten confused and had set up on a Lakeside pitch when they should have been on Premier. Luckily enough we still managed to be together but unfortunately my sister had to set up on the Premier pitch behind us. I think this misunderstanding could be avoided by having allocated pitches at booking. The ground staff and receptionists were very apologetic but apart from this we had a wonderful long weekend.
The toilet and shower blocks are really clean and well looked after. The campsite is also well maintained. We weren't overimpressed by the fish and chip shop on site but found Pete's takeaway opposite Pontins to be very good.
We had three keen adult fishermen with us who found the fishing to be very good but it was my 8 year old son who turned out to have the most catches!
We will definitely return, no worries.

Keep on coming back here, all facilities are excellent.
Toilets very clean and well maintained, clean site, takeaway not large but has a good selection with friendly staff.
Site has well spaced pitches many with hardstandings, really nice around the lake.
Good open air markets in area, good shopping in Burnham-on -sea and Weston-S-Mare.
Look forward to returning for short breaks several times each year.

Stayed here almost a year ago, and had a really great time.
We stayed in no dog field 3, which I must admit was slight cramped for ouor liking, but we were only away for a weekend, so we made do.
The reception staff are great, and the field was in good condition.
I would recommend this site to others, the toilet/shower facilites are great, showers do cost 50p for around 6 or 7 minutes but its plenty of time! They have a great pressure and the temp was just right. Always clean and tidy too!

Just returned from two weeks at Northam Farm. The glorious weather was a bonus to an excellent holiday there. Easy to find from the M5.
On arrival, welcomed by staff in reception and shown to our pitch facing the fishing lake. Very obliging staff, offered to help move the caravan into best position to view the lake.
Showers and loos very good - even at the busiest times. Always clean and tidy. Showers cost 50p.
Pitches for disabled near to loos - just a mention that showers have a step (no handrail) which could be tricky for anyone with mobility problems. Huge laundrette. Caravan sales of new and second hand vans. All pitches are a good size.
Big camp but divided fields making it feel smaller. Nice doggy walks around the lake. Fishing good, from what I was told.
Family entertainment at The Seagull club just off the camp site, so no rowdy music to disturb campers late at night - drinks average price. One down side, we had a takeaway from the camp chippy, £12 for fish and chips for two, which were dry and unimpressive. Good meals at The Palace above shops opposite Pontins and The Seagull. Cornish pasties from the bakery beneath The Palace very tasty.
Further up the road cars can access the beach and park all day for £2. Cafe on the beach and ice cream van up and down the beach all day. Nice walk from the beach to an old fort which can be reached by steps or a slope up the hillside. All NT, from the top views of Brean Downs from one side and Weston Super Mare from the other - shame about the fire at the pier.
Without exception we found all the staff friendly and helpful and I'd recommend this site. Like many other people we spoke to - we'll be back.

This site is the best! We have stayed there twice now and considering it's an hour down the road we consider it to be the best. It is such a clean friendly place.
We have a 4 year old and staying on the No dog pitch with the playground is ideal. We have been guided to our pitch and the guys have been very obliging in getting us as close to the playground as possible.
The shower blocks and toilets are spotless, they even have toddler toilets.
Fish and Chips are gorgeous and the shop is reasonably priced.
The reception staff provide a very warm welcome.
The surrounding entertainment outside of the site is great for teenagers etc. We just want a quiet time when we visit so therefore have not tried the Seagull pub.
It's a very relaxing place and would recommend it to anyone.

My wife and I stayed here in May 2008. Brean - in case you weren't sure, is a sort of Pontins style resort with multiple caravan parks along the coast road (both sides) stretching for a mile or more. It's little more than a village between Weston Super Mare and Burnham on Sea.
Although there is a Pontins here, the main cabaret type complex is the Seagull, which seems to book the better acts, and offers better dining and bar facilities than most. Be warned - it's very child friendly, with kiddy games and acts. Most nights you'd need a strimmer to get through the midget hordes to get to the bar !
Northam Farm is joint owned, as are others, by the Seagull. It's a fair stroll back after a night out, more so if you're camped in one of the rear fields but all the quieter for it.
The shower blocks seemed almost brand new and were very high standard. The initial part of the site had power hook-up and many static type plots. We stayed in a small dog free field far top left.
There are amentity blocks near reception with a restaurant / fish & chip shop / supermarket / toilets / reception etc. All in all good value for money and would heartily recommend the site.
The weather was predictably pants for the Bank Hol. But we arrived on the Thursday night and left on the Sunday and didn't suffer too badly. It was absolutely rammed with families come the weekend, so avoid Friday to Sunday to miss the crowds.
The holiday camp type cabaret wasn't really our thing but we were with friends and had a laugh all the same. It's very popular with both the Welsh and Midlanders - because of the easy motorway links I would guess.

This is a cracking site and because of the way its split in to different areas it does not feel like a big site. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The sites shop was good and prices seemed fair. The on site takeaway was also very good having a good selection on the menu to choose from, prices again good and food fine. We were shown to our pitch by 1 of the staff good size pitch hard-standing and level with a good view on to the lake.
We used only 1 of the many toilet/shower blocks and found this to be very clean and tidy every time. The showers are great and well worth the 50p, temperature just right. Pressure good.
The kiddies play areas seemed fine although we did not use them.
Walking to leisure park takes about 10 to 15mins and if you like rides there looked to be some good ones.
We went to The Seagull Inn on the Saturday night of the Bank Holiday weekend, it was very busy, we ordered our food which was ok but the wait was too long. Said we would go back during the week but didn't as we had found The Palace pub and restaurant(above the shops opposite Pontins) very nice place and food excellent ate there 3 evenings faultless.
Over all we ( 2 adults and 2 kids) had a great time and would go back. Although we felt the fishing could have been better as not a lot seemed to get caught.
