Beautiful autumn day.
Plenty of space in the adjoining field and next to the campsite.

  • Small, peaceful site in the Somerset countryside
  • A 20-minute drive to Burnham-on-Sea and Glastonbury
  • Within half an hour's drive of Wells and Cheddar; friendly site
Time for a little countryside escape? Head off to The Hideout, which is set in peaceful, rural Somerset surroundings but is only a 20-minute drive from Glastonbury Tor, 40 minutes from Bristol and within an hour of Exeter and Bath. The beaches of Burnham-on-Sea (20 minutes) and Weston-super-Mare (35 minutes) are also close by for days out. Turn off the M5 at Junction 23 and drive five miles through wildlife-laden Somerset countryside to go underground at this quiet place. This is a small site, but with plenty of room for rest and relaxation, so it's just the spot for people who appreciate nature, space and quiet settings. Come here to read, walk or stargaze on those pretty cloudless nights. Guests have access to a kettle and microwave, and when it’s time for washing up, the washing-up area is undercover. The other excellent amenities include separate ladies and gents’ blocks with an ensuite shower room in each, sockets for electric razors, drinking water and a chemical disposal point. There are also two separate toilets for guests' use. Ball games aren't allowed here, due to the peaceful focus. The friendly The Hideout team can offer lots of advice and information on what to see and do when going off adventuring in these parts, with piles of coast, city and countryside pursuits set within an hour’s drive of the site at most.

From the manager: Thank you Mark and Judy for your review and your kind comments about our peaceful location, spotless facilities and warm welcome.

We're delighted to read that there was "nothing disliked", which is why we were a little surprised by the overall score and the lower rating for value.

As our prices are clearly displayed at the time of booking, we always aim to provide excellent value for money, so we'd genuinely welcome any feedback on what could have made your stay worthy of a higher rating.

We hope to welcome you back in the future:)

Local attractions

Wend your way to Wells (half an hour's drive), one of the smallest cities in England, and prepare plenty of time to wander around its cathedral, the first Gothic cathedral in England. History boffins should also make room for Bishops Palace next door and Vicars’ Close, the oldest residential street in Europe. Leave lots of time to get there: Glastonbury Abbey (20 minutes), Glastonbury Tor (20 minutes) and the village of Street (15 minutes), home of Clarks Shoes and Clarks Village, are all on the way. (More shopping, you say? Flash your cash at Cribbs Causeway at Bristol (55 minutes), Cabot Circus at Bristol and Bath (an hour and 10 minutes), and buy some tasty tidbits at nearby Cheddar (half an hour). There are several Somerset museums revolving around motors and transport, such as The Helicopter Museum (half an hour), the Haynes International Motor Museum (half an hour) and the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm Museum (half an hour). Much of the history of Somerset is covered at the Museum of Somerset (half an hour) and at Glastonbury’s Somerset Rural Life Museum (20 minutes), in a fourteenth century barn with exhibits on Somerset’s agricultural and social history (you might particularly like the three-seater toilet). Seaside days at Weston-super-Mare (35 minutes) and Burnham-on-Sea (25 minutes) are also within easy reach.
