General
- Farm site over 270 acres, two miles from the Quantock Hills
- Help feed the farm pigs, sheep and chickens
- Footpaths and woodland to walk; maps provided; breakfast available
Foodies: this is the site for you. Huntstile Organic Farm, in the foothills of Somerset’s Quantock Hills, knows its food inside and out and backwards too.
Owners Lizzie and John are fervent about good food grown simply, locally and well, and their 270-acre site grows, produces and rears top-quality produce of all flavours. Huntstile is also in an area of low light pollution: alfresco suppers and then lying beside the tent and looking up at the stars sounds like a holiday you might like to hunt anywhere…
Guests can help feed the farm pigs, sheep and chickens (just ask the staff) and if you ask very nicely, the farm cats and dogs might take you walkies around the footpaths, fields, woodland and farm structures like the 16th-century seed granary (Huntstile has been a farm since at least the 11th century and surrounds a 14th-century farmhouse).
If you prefer to self-guide, pick up a map from the dining room and take a tour around the farm or take one of the walks up to the Quantock Hills starting directly from the farm gate; John and Lizzie can provide maps for other nearby walks to their homemade stone circle and through ancient woodland.
Toilets and showers with free hot water a short walk away, and there's also access to a guest fridge with freezer space. Kids can also have a bouncingly good time in summer on the big garden trampoline. Dedicated electric vehicle charging points are available.
Breakfast is available between 08.30 and 10.00 daily, while pizza nights and a licensed bar are on offer on Wednesdays and Fridays in the evening. Here on Sunday? Lunch is available too. There is also a marquee with table football and table tennis.
Open from 09/01/2023 to 22/12/2023

Hi Debbie Thank you for your review! Its lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stay here! ...but sad to see that you won't be coming back - even though you enjoyed it here. Regarding the dog charge, I've checked quite a few other pitch-up sites and £3 per night for a dog was the cheapest I could find, with some sites charging up to £10/night, so I think £3/night is a fair charge for now - and we have free dog treats and free poo bags too! Kind regards, |

Local attractions
Huntstile is five miles from Bridgwater, eight from Taunton and about 20 minutes’ drive from the coastline of highly recommended Kilve beach, with the Quantock Hills and Somerset villages along the way.
Ask Lizzie and John for tips or go in whatever direction takes your fancy: northish to the coast, south to Taunton, east and north east to Glastonbury and Cheddar, and west to the Brendon Hills and then Exmoor Forest. Weston-super-Mare, Minehead, Bristol and Cardiff are all within 25 miles.
Around 20 minutes’ drive takes you to Ramscombe, a picnic spot fave of the Huntstile staff, as it has loads of space for running and kicking a ball around, brooks to dam, purpose-built barbecues for lunch (and dinner), and a two-mile Red Walk suitable for most abilities.
Also head for Hestercombe House, overlooking the nearby Blackdown Hills and featured on the BBC’s Gardens Through Time. The formal gardens here were designed by Gertrude Jekyll and Sir Edward Lutyens and have 40 acres of woodland walks, an orangery and a temple.
