The gentle rush of the River Avon provides a constant backdrop at this Somerset campsite, where willow trees frame views across the peaceful valley and morning mist often softens the surrounding hills. Located in the heart of the South West's gentler landscapes, this is classic Somerset countryside—rolling, green, and wonderfully unhurried.

Perfect for campers seeking simplicity and space, whether you're touring in a campervan, towing a caravan, or pitching a tent beneath the valley skies. The year-round opening makes this a flexible choice for those spontaneous getaways or off-season escapes when the countryside feels entirely your own. Somerset's market towns and cider orchards lie within easy reach, while the riverside setting offers immediate immersion in nature.

Facilities are straightforward—clean toilets and showers keep things comfortable without overwhelming the rural character. The campfire policy varies, so check when you arrive if you're hoping for an evening blaze. The overall vibe is relaxed and unpretentious, ideal for campers who value scenery and tranquility over extensive amenities. A genuine back-to-basics Somerset experience.
