The mill leat still runs past the pitches, and on still mornings you can hear water tumbling over the old sluice before the kettle's even on.
Currypool Mill suits campers after a proper Somerset base — tent folk, caravanners, and campervans all welcome on pitches set around the old mill buildings. You're in cider and willow country here, with the Blackdown Hills within striking distance and the Somerset Levels spreading out to the north. Anglers often use this as a launch pad for Summerhayes Fisheries, less than fifteen minutes up the road, though plenty of visitors come simply for the rural quiet and the sense of stepping back a few decades.
Facilities are straightforward — clean toilets and showers onsite, nothing fancy but everything you need. Ask about campfires when you arrive; policies can shift depending on the season and how dry it's been. The vibe is old-school and unpretentious, the kind of spot where you pitch up, slow down, and let the sound of the water do the rest.
