Brokerswood near Westbury



      This was another weekend away with Carol & John, Belinda & Tony.  Mike suggested this site as he'd only just read about it one of the caravan magazines that we get.  Entry to the site is best through Westbury as this avoids the single track road from the A36.
     The caravans on the site are arranged around a circular track with the caravans facing inwards.  The service points are handy but I don't know about the shower block and toilets as we didn't use them.  John was already set up when Mike rolled up in the afternoon and Belinda & Tony arrived shortly after.

     Carol was picking me up after work so I had to twiddle my fingers at work watching the clock  - I wish!!!  Work is so busy sometimes but it's good to get away.
     The next day, Belinda & Tony had something to do so we went into Frome with Carol & John. We thought that we'd been here and we were racking our brains until we realised that we'd all been here separately.  We were here back in 2010 when we went to the Bell at Buckland Dinham.
     We went into a cafĂ© for a coffee and were shown to a settee at the back.  We could have gone to sleep as it was so horizontal.   
     Afterwards, we thought we'd have a look at Hungerford castle as it was on our English Heritage list.  This was new to us and it wasn't until we'd gone through paying that Carol & John realised that they'd been there before!  Oh well, it was still good looking around it with them and more entertaining.
     When we got back to the caravan, Mike and I walked around the lake and through the woods. It was lovely and peaceful.
     On Saturday evening, Mike volunteered to drive to the Poplar's Inn for meal. It was a lovely old country pub and the food wasn't that bad. We love old country pubs.  Carol's brother from Germany, who was doing a flying surprise visit to England met up with us all there.  They had travelled from London and were returning that night
