General
- Family campsite on the Somerset Levels between Glastonbury and Street
- Five minutes’ drive to Glastonbury Tor and the Chalice Well
- Fresh veg and pop-up street food on site; shops five minutes’ drive
The owner of Bobsfield Campsite is rightly proud of its eco-credentials – and you'll soon see why at this low-impact site, which has a spectacular setting on the Somerset Levels. Surrounded by fruit trees, the level camping meadow is solar-powered and all the amenities have either been repurposed or recycled. This wonderfully laid-back site offers a chilled wild-camping environment so you can get back to the simple pleasures in life.
There’s a fabulous view of Glastonbury Tor from the site (without having to climb a tree or peek through a hedge) and in the other direction, you get amazing sunsets on clear days. The few pitches are well spread out over the site, so everybody gets the chance for a bit of privacy and seclusion.
There’s no electricity but there are eco-friendly solar lights dotted around the site. A biodigester takes care of waste, and the owner has installed swanky flushing toilets and a washing-up area, which also happens to be in prime position to watch the sun go down.Fresh seasonal salad and vegetable boxes are often available to buy from the site owner (yes – it’s Bob) and he also has plants for sale in a nursery.
The towns of Glastonbury and Street are both around five minutes’ drive away, with a choice of shops for buying barbecue goodies, as well as pubs and restaurants if you fancy a break from cooking – and the site itself sometimes hosts the pop-up Cantina, with a menu of South American street food.
Bobsfield is a great place for birdwatching. Teasels have been left for goldfinches, and a corridor has been mown for the visiting barn owl. The site is on the edge of a wetland nature reserve, home to a recovering population of bitterns and birds as varied as marsh harriers and great white egrets.

Thanks for your kind review. It was lovely to see the kids running around barefoot. I'm glad the deer put in an appearance for you. Weirdly, lots of people who stay in that particular tent seem to see them....
