Two-acre site on a family-run smallholding in Bishops Lydeard
Five minutes` walk from West Somerset Railway steam trains
Rural site backed by woodland; two pubs within a few minutes` walk
If you like to arrive in style on your hols, this is certainly a place where you can do just that… Bishops Lydeard Caravan and Camping Site is one of those rare places where you can ride into town on a steam railway, thanks to the West Somerset Railway station a mere five minutes walk away.
Those planning to ride the rails at a later point, meanwhile, should be pleased to hear that access in a more conventional manner is also straightforward, as the A358 passes fairly nearby. Either way, this is a rather splendid spot with pitches spread across a two-acre field surrounded by protected woodland just on the edge of the village.
Its all been set up in the grounds of the 18th-century Greenway House, a Grade II-listed building that was once part of the adjoining Sandhill Park estate. Its now a family-run smallholding, so you`ll share the space with ducks, geese and chickens and there are more farm animals to spot in the surrounding fields.
Facilities:
Just a few amenities set up in the form of portable loos, water taps and a chemical disposal point. Barbecues are permitted and there is ice pack freezing available to keep provisions cool.

** We are PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THAT OUR NEW SHOWER ROOM IS READY TO BE USED
As well as being a top spot for train enthusiasts and those in search of farm stays, this place also has much to offer walkers, cyclists and folk travelling with four-legged companions, thanks to the plethora of pathways in the surrounds. And its also rather handy that there are two fine pubs and a microbrewery within a few minutes walk…
Nearby Attractions
Start local with a stroll up to the village to browse the farm shop, the Quantock Brewery, the tea rooms and the little rural life museum within Bishops Lydeard Mill.
If you need an excuse to book in for some pampering, perhaps a few long walks or bike rides would fit the bill? There are plenty of options in the nearby Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, around the Blackdown Hills AONB (20 minutes drive) or over in the Exmoor National Park (15 minutes).
And one mustnt forget the coast - the South West Coast Path starts in Minehead (half an hour), and its got plenty of beachy activities too. A little inland from Minehead is the splendid Dunster Castle; other fab options for days out nearby might include horse riding (10 minutes from the site) or gentle strolls around Hestercombe House & Gardens (15 minutes).
