About Oakhill Camping and Caravanning

A peaceful family friendly site on a working farm between untouched fields and woodlands, perfect for stargazing. A great base for exploring Somerset with an abundance of wildlife around the site, well maintained facilities and an honesty shop, it has everything you need. The site offers level grass pitches with optional electric, suitable for caravans, motorhomes and tents. For tourers, there are also electric hardstanding pitches. Set on large fields with goal posts and space for games, it is perfect for kids to play. There are also two heated cabins to choose from. Both cabins have a small kitchen, bathroom and dining area with TV. The kitchen is equipped with an electric hob, a toaster, crockery, a microwave, a sink, a kettle and a fridge freezer. Outside there is a secluded veranda with outdoor seating for some al fresco dining. The Gert Lushing cabin has a double bed, whilst the Country Bumpkin cabin has a king sized bed. Both are child and pet free. Situated in the heart of Somerset campers can relax amongst the beautiful surroundings of the Mendip Hills. Or find something a bit more exhilarating by hiking up Cheddar Gorge or visiting Bath for a day full of history, culture and food! Guests may hire fire pits from the site, and BBQs are encouraged as long as they are raised from the ground. Logs and kindling can be bought from the site. Dogs are welcome on the camping pitches with two fields for walks and various footpaths connected to the site. Sorry, no dogs in the cabins.
