Stopped here for one night on our return travels . Fantastic little spot with great views all around of the mendips . Peace and quiet and cheap with basic facilities no problem as we had a motorhome and didn’t require anything else . Lovely guy that greeted us on arrival and even cut the grass before we picked a spot to park . Couldn’t ask for more for that money . Great country pub just a couple of minutes walk away . Best nights sleep we have had in ages .

A field with a view, close to a pub, near great walking countryside but handy for the A38 and access to Bristol and South. Super, simple off grid camping...a delight

Lovely, well kept grass field with very basic amenities. Almost 'wild' camping. Lovely location and very near to Cheddar and the rest of beautiful Somerset.
Lovely site

Lovely site, amazing views, cracking pub a 2 minute walk away. It is a basic site. It has toilets and fresh water, and it is also on a slight slope. This is more than made up be the incredible views, the peace and quiet. Loads of interesting walks across the road and a very nice pub a 2 minute walk across the campsite. Would definitely stay there again.

Was just a field, most of which was on a slope. Email said to check in on arrival, yet there wasn't anyone around to speak to. We were asked by couple of people about seeing the owners, but just advised them to call like we did. I think that as it is just a field and portaloo, the site should be a little less, as many other sites nearby are £1-£5 more and offer a lot of facilities. I think this place is new to offering camping and it did the job. We enjoy wild camping and this was basically the same. Wouldn't come back but did enjoy ourselves, so thank you.

A hidden gem. This was just what I was looking for - the views over the Bristol Channel and surrounding Mendip hills were stunning. Facilities are all you need for a night or two away. A large field with plenty of space for people to not camp on top of one another. Friendly farmer asking for feedback on my way out. Fellow campers were all cool. There's a great pub a short walk away, with a good selection of fish and plant based meals. My dinner was lush, and prices were reasonable for the quality. Lots of footpaths to wander from the campsite, with ravens and buzzards soaring overhead. Sadly I slept in so missed sunrise which I bet was lovely. You can hear traffic from down in the valley so if you're a light sleeper earplugs might be a good idea. As a solo camper I felt very safe. I'd definitely go back if visiting Somerset again.
