About Sunnyhill Park Campsite
This peaceful site sits between the town of Wincanton and the village of Bruton. With Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire at your feet, there are plenty of stunning landscapes to explore both close and further afield. This site may be in the middle of nowhere, but there is lots nearby to keep you busy. On the main site, year round, there are six pitches - three hardstanding and three grass. Each pitch on the main site offers an electric hook up, as well as the yurts, shepherd's hut and gypsy wagon, all within easy reach of the shower block and overlooking the valley towards Alfred's Tower. The Hay Field is open for weekends throughout July and August. This field has toilet and shower facilities, and very spacious pitches. There will also be live musicians in this field on some Saturdays during peak season and early evening sessions to be enjoyed around a campfire! There is also a visiting storyteller, outdoor yoga sessions can be arranged too. Each of the two yurts sleeps up to six, equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. This includes a double bed, floor mattresses, bed linen, a log burner, camp stove and electric. Outside, there is also a fire pit, furniture, and even a kitchen shed shared with other yurt guests. For a real touch of luxury, opt for the shepherd's hut with its own private wood-fired hot tub. Inside is a kingsize bed above two single twin beds, along with a kitchenette and outdoor fire pit and furniture. A six person bell tent is also available onsite. You will find quirky features dotted around too, including hand painted plants pots, signs and more. There is also a pet corner for meeting the friendly onsite animals! Close by there is also Kingfisher stud where you can board your horse and have riding lessons on them while you are here. Dogs are welcome onsite, along with raised BBQs and fire pits.
Sunnyhill Park Campsite is open from 01/01 to 30/09.
This site offers a unisex facility block with toilets and showers, and during peak season there are additional compost toilets. There is also a caravan kitchen with a hob and oven for glampers and a pizza oven for campers and glampers. Fire pits are dotted around the site available to rent and logs are available to purchase.
For some local pubs, there is The Unicorn which can be reached across a couple of fields from the back of the campsite. Or, for a longer walk, The Smithy in Charleton Musgrove is available. For picking up the essentials, Co-op in Wincanton is just a five minute drive from the site.

A gem hidden in the hills of the countryside, friendly and welcoming by both humans and animals. The yurt was perfectly equipped and a bonus of the additional caravan kitchen, which provided a fridge and cooking facilities. Well functioning shower and toilet facilities and washing up area. There was so much space for the children to play and explore safely with minimal/ barely any traffic. A totally back to nature break with the most exquisite views, a lovely ending to some busy days visiting Longleat and Wooky Hole. Some beautiful walks through the countryside with routes provided. A quiet retreat which is sympathetic with the natural environment and views, no overcrowding and plenty of space for privacy and relaxation. Will definitely be back.

We stayed for one night in the middle of our journey to see family. There was electric hardstands, toilets & showers, waste bins and fresh water. There was also a toilet disposal point and a dishwasher point. The site was dog friendly and had a lovely view. What more do you need? All in good condition. We were greeted and shown around on arrival by friendly staff.

Things to do on site and in the Wincanton area
During the June bank holiday and school holidays, there are live musicians planned - under a canvas canopy in case of bad weather. There is also a visiting storyteller, and outdoor yoga sessions can be arranged too.
You will also be within easy reach of many famous attractions. The site is 40 minutes from Stonehenge and Glastonbury town and Tor, whilst being 25 minutes to Longleat Safari Park and House.
Fabulous fishing lakes at Higher Farm coarse fishery are 15 minutes from the site, and Todbur Manor and Shearwater are also a short 20 minute drive away to vary your fishing experiences.
There are plenty of walks in the local woodland and across farmland. It's particularly challenging to head towards Alfred's Tower, which you can see from the site, but it's a longer walk than you think!
Other nearby attractions include:
- Wookey Hole Caves (40 minutes)
- The Bishop's Palace and Gardens (40 minutes)
- Salisbury Cathedral (45 minutes)
- National Trust - Kingston Lacy (50 minutes)
- National Trust - Hardy's Cottage (55 minutes)
