Morning mist rolls off the Quantock Hills and settles across Five Acres' flat, open pitches, where woodsmoke from the first kettle mingles with the smell of damp grass and Somerset farmland waking up.
This is a straightforward Caravan Club site that suits tourers, motorhomers and tent campers who want a reliable overnight or a few nights exploring the Quantocks — walkers heading for Combe Sydenham, families using it as a base for Exmoor or the coast, couples touring the cider country. The region's known for its red deer, ancient oak woods and those rolling purple moorlands, all within easy striking distance. Pitches take tents, caravans and campervans, so expect a mix of seasoned tourers and weekend adventurers.
Facilities cover the basics — clean toilet blocks and showers — without frills or fanfare. It's a no-nonsense, year-round site with a quiet, practical vibe, the sort of place you pitch up, brew tea and plan tomorrow's ridge walk. Check the campfire policy when you arrive if you're hoping for an evening under the stars with a fire bowl.
