The crunch of gravel beneath your feet announces your arrival at this tranquil Caravan Club CL, where Somerset's gentle hills roll away toward the horizon and birdsong drifts across open farmland. This is classic South Somerset countryside, with Ilminster's market town amenities close enough for provisions whilst maintaining that wonderfully remote rural feeling.
This traditional five-pitch site welcomes tents, campervans, and caravans to a peaceful farmland setting that appeals to those seeking simplicity and quiet. The area around Ilminster offers excellent walking country, with the Blackdown Hills AONB within easy reach and historic towns like Taunton and Chard providing wet-weather alternatives. You're well-placed here for exploring both Somerset's cider orchards and the Devon border beyond.
Facilities follow standard CL simplicity, so come prepared for a back-to-basics experience. Campfires are worth checking about on arrival—policies can vary with seasons and conditions. The overall atmosphere is peacefully rural and uncomplicated, perfect for those who appreciate the Caravan Club's no-frills approach to camping and prefer letting the Somerset landscape provide the entertainment.
