We stayed on this campsite for three days during August. The site is in a large, flat field on this working farm and has fantastic views of the Mendips. Despite being just off the A38, the site is really peaceful with just a little traffic noise but this did not disturb us.
The site is ideally placed for accessing the West Mendip Way (there is a public footpath from the site) and exploring local towns such as Axbridge and Cheddar. The Strawberry Line cycle trail is just over a mile away and provides an interesting glimpse of the railway heritage of the area. There is an excellent pub, the New Inn at Cross (about a mile away) which provides great food and beer.
The site has a good clean toilet block with separate ladies and gents plus a shower (takes 20ps).
Kathryn and Mark, the owners, were very friendly and helpful and their farm-produced sausages are not to be missed! This is a great little site and we will certainly re-visit.

Lovely peaceful site (despite just being off the busy A38). Simple toilet/shower block which was always well stocked and very clean.
Only one, spacious shower unit but never saw a queue as the site is not very big. Stunning views of the Mendips. Owner was very welcoming but not intrusive.
Had a really relaxing stay. Extremely good value for money.

15 of us stayed here as a group of friends for a festival nearby, good clean power hot shower, a spot to wash up and separate loos. Field nice and flat small and well off the main road so nice and secure.
I think there were 11 EHU, and then half the field for basic set ups. Excellent prices and they were not inflated for the bank holiday weekend.
Kathryn the owner was lovely and regularly checked we were all okay without being intrusive. We would all go back again.

A very flat, well kept field, with a basic but very clean toilet block, with one unisex shower. Shower takes 20ps or £1 corns, and was lovely and warm, and was a decent size. Views over the field was stunning, short walk to the local pub, circa a mile cycle to the strawberry line. Petrol station in the village, with all the basics required.
Short journey to cheddar gorge, a super day out.
A little road noise can be heard, but didn't affect us as light sleepers, as long as the windows were shut.
Axbridge has a super pub, with outside seating, and a quaint tea room
Grass was kept short. Hook up was great
Thank you Kathryn for allowing us to stay

We loved this site. The owner was most helpful on arrival because although she wasn't there she had put on a plan of the campsite where we were to pitch. The ground, although grass, was level and firm and was no problem. It was well kept and short. Not far from the M5 so an easy reach for Cheddar etc. But still quiet at night with little road noise. A great spot for exploring this wonderful area. When you meet the owner she is so amenable and helpful. The toilet facilities are basic but extremely clean and tidy and the showers are hot although you have to pay. 20p 10mins 40p 20mins etc. A very quiet site, no 'red coats' and children games etc. , but a really great, quiet site, with great views, a site to chill out, and with reasonably priced pitches this is a perfect site for those who appreciate a well kept, clean and inexpensive c. C. C. Site. An added bonus. Next door is a great fishing lake!

Can't wait until next trip (prob end of June)

I think I will be repeating what has already been said so I just add to the excellent reviews for what is a small well run/organised site. The sanitary block is small with a shower which takes 20p's and is quite adequate in size and really clean and tidy. I do believe they are cleaned everyday. The camping field is level with an area for hook ups and tents. A really lovely site. Highly recommended

This was my second visit to Watersmeet Farm, and I can thoroughly recommend the site.
Plenty of space, flat and well kept field.
Clean well maintained shower/toilets -showers take 20p pieces/£1 coins.
The site is in beautiful location with views of The Mendips, short drive to Axbridge and Cheddar, and not far to Weston Super Mare and Brean beaches.
It's a great base for walking and cycling too.
Kathryn is very welcoming and accommodating and I can thoroughly recommend her home grown sausages!
The local pub, 5 mins walk, is also worth a visit, good traditional hostelry with free wi-fi.
The Almshouse Tea Shop in Axbridge is very well worth a visit too - friendly service, great food and fabulous cakes!
Overall great experience, will return.

We stayed at Watersmeet for the fourth time the week after Easter. Booking was easy as Kathryn replied within a few hours of me texting and gave us one of the pitches I requested. Pitches here are a good size and what we like about Watersmeet is there is plenty of room. They do not try and cram lots of units in to maximise profits. We have a folding camper with awning and bedroom extension and get this in no problem. In fact our stay this time was the quietest yet. We had the Site to ourselves for four nights. Toilet and shower facilities are simple but always very clean. Although only a single shower in the four times we have stayed there has never been a queue. Kathryn supplies logs as it's nice to be on a campsite that allows campfires, providing they are in a brazier or pit which they supply. Hidden away behind the toilet block. We also tried some of her sausages which she has been making for a year or so and they are really good.
Our 3 kids enjoy being here because there is plenty of room to kick a ball around, play rounders, fly kites or as we have done take a boat down to the river that flows through the farm and spend a few hours on the water. This year my boys took their goal out the garden and Kathryn let them keep it set up in the middle of the field as it was quiet. The boys loved this and played till it got dark and it was time to get the campfire going. With the units being set up around the perimter if you have young children you can keep an eye on them. This is less important for us now our children are older.
If you have a dog this site is ideal as you can walk through the farm and once you are over the river there are plenty of fields to walk through. Dogs are welcome here providing you clean up after them.
There are other factors that make this site ideal. There is a good dog friendly pub called the Lamb a five minute walk away. Another 20 minutes away at Cross and another very nice pub called the Swan in Rowberrow. All do good food and real ale. We can get to Cheddar in 10 minutes, Weston in less than 20 minutes and Glastonbury about 30 minutes. It's also really easy to reach from J22 of the M5 but you do have to keep a close eye out for the site as you come into Lower Weare.
Kathryn does not tolerate campers who make a mess or who are not considerate to other campers so I know we can arrive here and have a peaceful time enjoying a great view of the Mendips while drinking around a proper campfire. On a clear night the stars are seriously impressive as there is very little light pollution so if you are into astronomy this site could be worth a try.
Although there is no shop on site this is not a problem as five minutes from the site is a BP station with a shop included which stocks the basics. There is also a farm shop 2 minutes drive for your fresh meat and veg.
We shall be returning for a fifth time next year without a doubt.
