The morning mist lifts off the Somerset Levels, and you're waking up to cows lowing in the next field and woodsmoke drifting from a neighbouring pitch.

Countryside Caravan Park suits caravanners and motorhomers looking for a proper year-round base in the South West, though tent campers are welcome too. You're in Somerset, so think cider country, the Quantocks within reach, and that particular West Country feeling of lanes that go nowhere fast. It's the kind of spot where regulars return season after season, and new arrivals quickly work out why.

Facilities are straightforward — hot showers and clean loos — and the vibe is unpretentious and friendly. Campfires are allowed but worth checking the rules when you arrive, as it may depend on conditions or pitch type. Open all year, so it works for those chasing shoulder-season quiet or a proper winter retreat under big skies.
