  • Family caravan park in the Somerset Levels, 10 minutes from the M5
  • A 15-minute drive to the coast; half an hour to Wookey Hole
  • Landscaped grounds with two fishing lakes and river fishing; spa
A rural Somerset stay without the need to navigate miles of rural Somerset roads? Pull your caravan off the M5 at Junction 22, drive for a mere 10 minutes and you’ll be going through the gates of Cripps Farm Caravan Park, ready to park up on spacious and fully serviced hardstanding pitches. A handy stopover point, then, but also a fine base for an extended break – the peaceful park is surrounded by the pretty countryside of the Somerset Levels, with plenty of scope for walks, cycling, canoeing, horse riding, golf and other outdoor activities nearby. Beaches are 15 minutes’ drive away, Bristol about 45 minutes, and there’s a good chance to grab bargains at the Clarks Village outlet park half an hour away. That said, in fact you don’t even have to exit the park to get your fix of rural activity: there’s a countryside walkway on site with wildlife to spot and seating areas where you can rest and take in the view. Or you might like to bring along your rods to spend some time at the two well-stocked fishing lakes or along the banks of the Cripps river, which runs past the edge of the site. This isn’t a noisy park packed with entertainments, but it’s one that’s got the facilities sorted: wifi, a launderette, a washing-up area and toilets/showers with accessible facilities are all on site. You’re welcome to bring along a barbecue (there’s a supermarket for supplies 10 minutes’ drive away in Highbridge) and there are a couple of pubs about a mile away if you fancy heading out. Cripps Farm Caravan Park is also home to a spa, where a range of packages and holistic therapies are available in a space designed for pure relaxation (book in advance).

What customers say

This is a clean, well-maintained and peaceful site, with many pitches offering lovely river views. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are consistently described as immaculate and well-kept. Owners are noted as friendly and helpful. While the site is generally well-equipped, some guests found the 50p shower duration insufficient and Wi-Fi costly. A few minor access points were mentioned, but overall, visitors expressed high satisfaction and intent to return.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (adults only, riverside)

Liked Peaceful riverside pitch, well maintained site, warm clean facilities, good showers, no fuss

Disliked Nothing to dislike, only things that could be improved on like sinks in shower rooms (for us gents that may want to shave) and press taps that would run a little longer 😉

Paul C.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (adults only, riverside)

Liked Beautiful riverside spot. Toilet and shower block immaculately clean. Swap shop a nice idea for games, books and DVD's. Also an honesty box for farms eggs,homemade jam and pickle. Very reasonable price

Disliked Only dislike was, drive to farm is a bit narrow, so if two caravans meet, one has to be very good at reversing as not many passing points. Luckily we didn't meet anyone coming the other way.

Local attractions

Cripps Farm makes a good base for all sorts of outings in the Somerset countryside: check out the geology of Cheddar Gorge (half an hour’s drive), delve underground at Wookey Hole (35 minutes) or walk up to Glastonbury Tor (35 minutes). To see some of the countryside in a more active way, chat with the folk at Wall Eden Adventure Activities (five minutes) to sort days of canoeing, kayaking, archery or axe-throwing. If you’ve got beach time on the mind, head west for time on the sand at Burnham-on-Sea (15 minutes), a stroll among the dunes at Brean (half an hour) or a potter along the pier in Weston-super-Mare (half an hour), followed by fish and chips on the beach. Bristol (45 minutes to the city centre) is worth a visit too: there are tons of places to eat and drink, and things like Bristol Zoo, M Shed and the SS Great Britain are all popular places with the kids. There’s some good shopping in the city’s indie shops too, or you can head to Clarks Village for discount bits at the outlet shops.
