The gentle rush of a stream and the rustle of Somerset's ancient woodlands replace the usual sounds of everyday life at this aptly named hideaway. Tucked into a sheltered valley where sunlight filters through the canopy in dappled patterns, this site lives up to its promise of seclusion. Morning mist often lingers in the hollows before burning off to reveal the rolling patchwork of fields that characterizes this gentler corner of the South West.
This is a campsite for those seeking proper escape rather than entertainment—families wanting their children to experience wild play, couples craving quiet, and anyone who finds contentment in birdsong rather than organized activities. Somerset's famous cider country and the historic market towns of the region lie within reach for day trips, but the valley itself encourages you to slow down and simply be.
Facilities are refreshingly straightforward: clean toilets and showers serve pitches suitable for tents, campervans, and caravans. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so ask when you get here if you're hoping for evening flames. The overall atmosphere is one of rural simplicity and genuine tranquility—a place where the valley keeps its secrets well.
