  • Rural Somerset site crossed by a stream a five-minute drive from Frome
  • Longleat 10 minutes’ drive; Wookey Hole Caves 35 minutes
  • Play area with miniature adventure course; dog-friendly walks nearby
A gorgeously rural corner of Somerset is the setting for Seven Acres Camping Site, which stretches over (you guessed it…) seven acres on the edge of the Longleat Estate, a five-minute drive from the town of Frome. A stream runs through the site, which is just off the B3092; this makes it easy to access, but it also means you may hear some traffic noise. A railway line runs parallel to the road, too… but you might find that the jolly whistling of a passing train rather adds to the romance of camping. It’s all about perspective, isn’t it? Regardless, forget the possible noises and accentuate the positive, starting with oodles of space and a play area with play equipment and a miniature adventure course where the kids can climb, slide and swing to their hearts’ content (while you keep an eye on proceedings from the nearby shaded bench). There are no cars permitted in the camping field, keeping the atmosphere peaceful; after you park up, you'll need to unload and walk to your pitch. This is a self-check-in site, so settle in at your own pace. While you may not see them, the team is on-site daily to make sure everything is running smoothly. Your canine companion is not left behind either, with plenty of dog-friendly walks in the surrounding area. Have a go at the circular Mells Walk (10 minutes’ drive), following the course of the Mells River; or head to Clanger Wood (20 minutes’ drive), known for its bluebell meadows and colourful butterflies. Cranborne Chase National Landscape (35 minutes) has trails leading through its distinctive landscape of chalk river valleys and escarpments; this area is also an International Dark Skies Reserve, so be sure you have all you need to stay until after sundown for some spectacular stargazing.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked So peaceful, very pretty site, lots of trees and a lovely stream, lots of wildlife. Very flat camping field and nice ground, not stony so pegs went in easy! Toilet/shower/washing up block exteemely clean. Small enough that they're children could explore safely but big enough to be far away from other campers. Easy entry with the keypad. Shame you can hear the road and train, but not intrusive at all, hardly noticed it. Loved it here, would come again!

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Quaint wee site. Not too many pitches so quiet and relaxed. Good location for what we wanted to do in the area.

Basic, but good facilities.

Disliked Nothing... other than the spider in the corner of the washup area. But to be fair, it kept to itself so not really an issue, lol.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked We recently enjoyed a wonderful weekend here with three generations of our family and it was the perfect place to spend quality time together. The campsite is set in beautiful surroundings, with mature trees, a gently meandering stream and spacious pitches that never felt crowded. The small play area was ideal for the children, who quickly made new friends while we relaxed.

Disliked The only disappointment was the evening noise from passing trucks and trains, which took away some of the peaceful atmosphere. Despite that, it’s a lovely family-friendly campsite in a beautiful setting that we’d happily visit again.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Really lovely site, well maintained and cared for. Loads of space. The camping area looked lovely. Not many other campers, but those we met were super friendly. We really enjoyed our stay. Close to Frome, great to visit local spots.

Disliked Yes, there is a busy road close by and train tracks, but we didn’t really notice these in the evening.

Local attractions

Budding zoologists might enjoy a day at Longleat (10 minutes’ drive), where you can drive through vast enclosures housing big cats, wolves and rhinos; get hopelessly lost in Britain’s largest hedge maze; and take a tour of the 16th-century stately home, with its splendid artworks and tapestries. Wookey Hole Caves (35 minutes), on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills National Landscape, features a subterranean network of limestone caverns and passages with evocative names like Witch’s Kitchen. After having a go at the caving experience, check out the lifesize creatures at Dinosaur Valley or unwind on the miniature golf course. Treat yourself to a visit to Bath (35 minutes). The Roman bath complex in the centre of town includes a sacred spring and a museum displaying ancient artefacts. Follow that with afternoon tea at the Regency Tea Room at the Jane Austen Centre, where you can pretend to be Emma or Mr Darcy.
