 This was our second visit to Old Oaks and once again we had a fantastic time. The weather was perfect which always helps and we had some lovely walks locally as well as some great days out further afield.
The site itself is still superb. There are large, spacious, private pitches and we had a superior pitch with water and waste on the pitch as well as a paved patio area and picnic table. The toilet and shower facilities are the best we have come across on any site in our 20 years of touring and are always spotless.
We tried the cooked breakfast this year which was really lovely and we also used the food outlet on 2 evenings, once for the burger evening and once for the pub grub evening both of which were great.
In my previous review last year I mentioned a bit of a problem with inconsiderate dog owners but this was not an issue this time and we had a really peaceful stay.
We are heading back again for 4 nights in June as a stopover on our way to Cornwall and we can’t wait!

We have stayed before and everything is still beyond excellent. Shower/toilets superb.
Very popular with dog owners.
Very 'green', refilling most things at the shop and every sort of recycling bin (Some sites still have one bin and claim customers are not interested. )

This is our second visit to this fantastic adult only site.
It’s even better than our first visit with the added dog swimming pond and the fantastic choice of the nightly take away menus.
The facility block are worthy of a five star hotel. Friendly staff and brilliant pitches.
We think this is the best site we have stayed at in the uk.

Arrived in the pouring rain, but that didn’t matter when we saw the site for the first time.
Wow, wow, wow is all We can say.
Check in was fast, he did get very wet showing us to our pitch.
Love the number plate recognition barriers, makes the whole site feel safe.
Our pitch was immaculate and very big. (Top oaks, pitch 2) fully serviced with a bird table and picnic bench on the grass area. The whole of the sites gardens were very well kept.
We were fairly close to the impressive toilet block which houses individual bathrooms and other showers in the toilets, always nicely heated and very very clean. They put some hotel bathrooms to shame. The washing up sinks were also in the block so no draughty outside washing up area.
There were plenty of bins all round the site, and they love recycling so a bin for everything.
Everybody was really friendly, the on-site shop was well stocked with anything you’d forgotten. There was alcohol, beautiful local meat and cheeses, other store cupboard stuff, bits for the van, plenty for your dog, ice cream and so much more.
You can order fresh bread the day before. There is food every night so you don’t even have to cook.
The site was just outside Glastonbury itself so 10 minutes down the road supermarkets etc.
Would recommend the walk up to Glastonbury Tor, we were so chuffed we made it as both have dodgy knees, but well worth it. We had a lovely day in Wells too.
Would We recommend this site? You bet we would, we will be back.

I’m not sure I can really add much to what has been said here already. This has got to be one of the best sites we have ever stayed on. It is adults only so no children around and the clientele is towards the more mature end of the spectrum.
The site is booked up months in advance and the only way we could get on for a week was to split the week across 2 pitches. We started on a superior pitch for 4 night which was amazing.
It was huge, separated by bushes and trees from the neighbours and had a lovely paved patio area with picnic table. Water and waste connections were on the pitch which was great.
We then moved to a Super Pitch for 3 nights which was also great but we had been spoiled by the superior pitch so it felt a bit of a let down. If we had never seen the superior pitches, this super pitch would have seemed fantastic though as it was large, had water and waste and good privacy created by trees and shrubs.
The toilet and shower blocks are like something from a 5 star spa and I had the best campsite showers I have ever had here with great water pressure and plenty of really hot water.
There are different food options available every evening so if you don’t want to cook, you don’t have to. We had the wood fired pizza one evening which was great and the gourmet burger another evening which my husband said was the best burger he had ever had.
The ladies who do a few of the evening meals each week also do desserts and the raspberry and white chocolate cheesecake was to die for! They also do a range of different breakfasts 6 mornings a week which we never sampled but which seemed popular judging by the number of people buying them.
The site is really well positioned for lots of lovely walks and is also within an easy car journey of some interesting places to visit. We particularly liked Wells with its amazing cathedral. We went to choral evensong one evening which was lovely. We also visited some National Trust properties and enjoyed a great walk at Lytes Cary Manor.
The only slightly negative point that I could make about the site is not really the sites fault and they seem to be aware of it and are trying to tackle it, but most units on site had dogs and some of them had multiple dogs and not all owners were as well behaved as you would like.
Some allowed their dogs to bark loudly and incessantly and run around on extra long leads, jumping up at whoever they liked while the owners sat smiling benevolently, completely unaware that their dogs were causing problems.
Some complaints must have been made as when we were there the site issued a statement banning long and retractable leads and reminding owners to be thoughtful of their neighbours, so at least the site is trying to do something about it. However, I would suggest that if you are not a dog lover then this might not be the site for you.
All in all, we had a brilliant week and can’t wait to go back. It’s just a shame that it is so hard to get a pitch.

What can I say that hasn’t already been said. Absolutely fabulous. The staff are so friendly. Cleanest facilities I’ve ever seen. No cobwebs or spiders here.
You can get food every night if you wish from the visiting food vans, the roast hog night was amazing along with breakfasts. The shop sells everything you need. Bakery items are best ordered the day before.
There is a fenced off dog run area although there are plenty of walks. Along with a dog shower with hot water and shampoo. A separate washing machine and dryer for dog towels/blankets.
Pitches are spacious and well kept. Wardens stay on each section.
There is plenty to see around Glastonbury. Be mindful there is a large New Age community in this area, if you do visit the springs, they’ll probably be in them naked 🤣

If I could give 11 out of 10's I would. This must be one of the best sites in the UK. We have visited several times before and once again we were not disappointed.
Shop excellent we were even able to buy a bread knife. Fish and Chips delivered great, dare I say too many chips, better not, good value. Pizza baked by visiting van on site, some of the best I have ever had.
Their newest 'facilities' block still reminds us of a spa hotel. Everything spotless.
They are trying to rejuvenate some of the bushes between pitches so right now a bit more open than it was, but nature should sort it.
Plenty of walking from the site, note the quickest way to the tor, across the fields, is really steep.
If you visit Glastonbury there is a park and ride but their are several car parks to the west of the high street. You can walk in from the site across country. Glastonbury Abbey is a hidden gem, massive site 53 acres.
TV reception is so so, although camp wifi is good.
Note you can hire bird feeders, fire pits and bat locators.

Our fourth visit to this fabulous adults only site and it never disappoints, no coincidence it wins all the best site awards. Onsite shop, games room, different take away every evening and cooked breakfast available.
Exceptional large flat private pitches, choose from fully serviced or Electric hook up only. Some with fire pits, picnic benches, bird tables etc. Immaculate toilet facilities that would grace a five star hotel. Free WiFi, TV and Satellite hook up on some pitches.
Fishing lake, dog walks and easy walk to Glastonbury and also the Tor. Lots to visit in the area including Cheddar Gorge, Wells, Clarks village, Fleet Air arm museum, Sparkford motor museum, Bath etc. Also Pods, Shepherds Huts and Lodges available.
Book early to avoid disappointment.

Always wanted to visit this site but this was our first time and we weren't disappointed!
What a place, the facilities are excellent, absolutely love the all in one bathrooms (toilet, sink, shower) everything is just brilliant.
Nice spaced out pitches, very very quiet on site.
They also have food on site if required to save going into town.
This is what all sites should like (if only!)

What a beautiful site with immaculate facilities. Stunning views and a lovely walk into Glastonbury.
It’s our first time here but definitely won’t be our last.
We had a lovely welcome too.
Pitch sizes are great and there’s a good choice of pitches.
Can’t fault the site.
