General
- Beautiful pitches in the woodland on in an open field
- Small veg and sheep farm ideal for wildlife lovers
- Campfires allowed
Vallis Veg is not a conventional site with lots of tents squeezed together in a flat field. The site is a small farm and camping here is a little bit wilder. The secluded pitches, set among young trees have been levelled and a separate field has been dedicated to groups.
Facilities are basic but include a sink area for washing-up (cold running water), water tap and a compost toilet. Please note that this site has no shower facilities. The site has a covered 'A' frame structure with a firepit that campers are welcome to use so long it hasn't been booked by a private group.
Some pitches have views across the countryside towards the Mendips and some others are surrounded by trees. The rough ground and vegetation onsite attract a range of wildlife, including buzzards, butterflies and moths. Badgers, deer and lovely birds have also been spotted in the area.
Open from 01/05/2017 to 31/10/2017

Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can now make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children on one pitch.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled ‘Please note’.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.

Important: the site is Vallis Veg, not Vallis Farm. Please do not go to Vallis Farm! Their owners do not like to be disturbed.
If you are going north up Elm lane (from Frome) take the right turn over the old cattle grid (past the small Vallis Farm sign). Pass a small parking area on the right and go up a short, steep hill. The entrance to our land is at the top of the hill on the right hand side before the cottages. Look out for our Vallis Veg sign hanging in the tree.
Local attractions
The town of Frome is a short walk away along an excellent public footpath. Frome has many events throughout the year as well as a number of pubs, restaurants, bars, a cinema, two theatres, art galleries.

The East Mendip Way passes through the site; walking away from Frome you can visit the castle at Nunney or follow the river to the village of Mells where you can enjoy a bite to eat in the walled garden, the village cafe or the local gastropub.
