 This is a lovely and peaceful site within easy reach of the A303.
My only comment would be that the shower block could do with some slight modernisation. The facilities are really clean but some heating/showers which indicate which way the hot/cold is and a shelf to put toiletries on is all it needs.
We visited the Nags Head in Martock which was very welcoming and the food was all home cooked and excellent value for money.
We would definitely return to this site and recommend it.

We stayed on this site last weekend, what a gem set in apple orchards close to the A303. The access was easy lovely couple running this site, the reception area also hosts a shop with all the essentials and lovely bread from the local bakery.
The facilities were spacious with excellent showers and in the ladies extra touches like hand cream cotton buds cotton wool ball were provided and they were always clean.
We booked a hard standing pitch with EHU ( Pay for what you use)again plenty of room cars are to be parked in the car park which was very close by. Also the usual chemical deposal site with recycling bins an under cover washing up area with washing machine and tumble dryer
The walking among the apple trees was lovely especially if you have dogs and there are lots of walks you can take. Close by is the village of South Petherton with a small coop, bike shop and various others independant retailers a pub and small restaurant, There is also a good pub at Dinnington (Dinnington Docks ) approx 1. 5 mile walk or short drive. Crewkerne has a waitrose, Budgens and Lidl whilst Ilminster has a tesco. Also Not far are NT properties Barrington Court, Montacute House and East Lambrook Manor gardens are well worth a visit, Ham Hill country park is a must for a dog walk or for children to run around and explore fabulous Pub The Prince of Wales ( dog friendly and muddy boots)
This a fab place for a week/weekend break, overnight stop on route to Devon or Cornwall in my opinion this site is highly recommended

My son was doing a Blacksmith course in the area so I decided to look for a campsite in the area and found this lovely place. The man I spoke to when I called to book was lovely and couldn't have been more helpful so I didn't hesitate to book us in for the night. Upon arrival I went to reception to be greeted by the nice and polite owner who signed us in, gave us the site rules, informed us of all facilities (toilets, showers, washing up room, washing and drying and the small but well stocked on site shop) and showed us where we could set up. As my son was to be at his course all day, leaving me at a loose end, I asked the gent what time we had to be off site the next day and explained why I was asking and he kindly said it was no bother us leaving whenever we were ready.
This site is set in a lovely orchard with amazing views across the hills and we didn't hear a peep from others on site all through the night.
What a lovely little place we chose to visit.
We will definitely be making another visit in the very near future

Was looking for a closer campsite to home so we can use the van throughout the year and came across this site. On entering we were impressed with the fantastic views. Toilet area was very clean and looks like further park improvements were ongoing, such as new fencing and pitch upkeep. Friendly reception and very relaxed. We are able to store our van for a very competitive rate. We are staying here for the first time for 3 nights and at £13 a night very good price. Electric card weird as we have never used this way, we will see how expensive this is as we go.

We looked this site up when our usual site in the area was full. Whilst it is not in the premier league it is a comfortable site with clean facilities, plenty of space, a fantastic view and pleasant staff. What is more it is relatively cheap (we paid £13. 50p per night for a motorhome). Interestingly electricity is paid on a 'how much you use' basis. We stayed from about 2pm to 10am the following day and the cost for fridge, kettle, TV, water heater, lights and about 2 hours heating came to a princely 78 pence!
If you have a dog this is for you - up to an hours walk around the cider apple orchards, two public footpaths and other lanes. Children reasonably well catered for as far as we could see. Small shop for essentials on site and an easy walk to the pub if it is not too muddy a bit further if it is.
Not signposted but easy to find and good access.
We shall be going back.
