Woodsmoke drifts lazily across the hedgerows while skylarks trill above the open meadow—this is Somerset camping at its most gloriously uncomplicated. Buckland Field welcomes tents, campervans and caravans to a straightforward site where the emphasis rests squarely on simplicity and the gentle pleasures of the surrounding countryside rather than extensive amenities.
Tucked into Somerset's patchwork landscape, you're ideally positioned for exploring the wetlands, historic market towns and rolling hills that define this corner of the South West. Walkers and families seeking a proper escape from over-manicured holiday parks will appreciate the back-to-basics approach here.
Facilities keep things refreshingly uncomplicated with clean toilets and hot showers provided—everything you need, nothing you don't. Check on arrival about campfire policies, as this may vary seasonally. The atmosphere is relaxed and unhurried, perfect for those who value space, tranquillity and the chance to sleep beneath properly dark Somerset skies without bells and whistles getting in the way.
Add a single landscape photo from your trip — pitch, view, sunset, anything but people. We’ll add it to the gallery after a quick moderation check.
