The morning mist rolls in off the Somerset Levels, settling low across the hedgerows before the sun burns it clear.
Bucklegrove sits in classic Somerset countryside, open year-round for tents, campervans and caravans alike. It's the sort of place that works for families after a proper base to explore Cheddar and Glastonbury, tourers passing through the South West, or anyone wanting a straightforward pitch without frills. The Levels are on the doorstep — flat, atmospheric walking country threaded with rhynes and willow-lined lanes — and you're well placed for Wells, the Mendip Hills, or dropping down to the coast.
You've got your basics covered: toilets and showers onsite, space for different pitch types, and the freedom of year-round opening if you fancy a quieter off-season stay. Ask about campfires when you arrive. It's a no-nonsense, functional sort of site — the kind where you pitch up, sort your kit, then head out to see what Somerset has on.
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.
