Wookey Farm: Pitching meadow centre of photo

General

  • Marked-out pitches or pick your own: site bordered by the River Axe
  • Wookey Hole 2.5 miles; Wells 3.5 miles
  • Farm animals, rope swings and on-site farm shop; pub/café half a mile

What a bewitching place. And most especially for kids: Wookey Farm, a couple of miles from the famed Wookey Hole Caves (and their famed witch), is a tiptop option for small sorts and their owners, with loads of space to run around and a menagerie of animals to coo over.

Older offspring will be sizzling with excitement on hearing that they can stoke flames and get social at the communal campfire area, while bigger folk will probably be content to bring along a firepit and laze idly on the family pitch, taking in the views of the Mendip Hills and towards Hembury and Yarley hills… Off site, it's three and a half miles from the farm to cutely compact Wells, six miles to Glastonbury, and a drive of 45 minutes to the coast at Weston-super-Mare.

The site is on a small, family-run goat farm where guests are most welcome to meet the menagerie (sheep, pigs, hens and a donkey live here too) and find out all about running a farm. All pitches are in a level two-and-a-half-acre space with marked pitches or in an overflow meadow bordered by the River Axe: you can opt to be as mixed in or as far away as you like. Splashing, paddling and critter spotting can all be had in the river, as can back and forthing merrily on the rope tyre swing over the water (more swings are around the site if this seems slightly too hair-raising).

Wookey Farm is an eco-friendly site, with emphasis on keeping things as natural as possible. Facilities are basic but well kept: four compost toilets and washbasins, cleaned twice a day; a washing-up area with water tap alongside; and plenty of facilities for sorting your rubbish (recycling and food waste contributions are keenly welcomed).

For those barbecue supplies, the farm is just down the lane from Wookey village's café, shop and three pubs. There's also an on-site farm shop selling the farm's own goat's cheese, goat's milk and meat, along with alcohol, snacks and gifts.

    Gorgeous location. My son loved paddling in the stream and playing on the rope swings dotted about. Blackboard with name to tell us where to go was cool! Good recycling and friendly campsite.

    Disliked: 

    The weather! Lol! If I'm nitpicking, the grass was very long... its always easier to pitch on shorter grass, especially when it's wet.

Nice spot near stream with pretty views.21/08/2023

    Nice spot near stream with pretty views.

    Disliked: 

    Grass was far too long for camping. Compost toilets stank. Despite stating there were washing up facilities, there was no hot water whenever I tried. Took our washing up home as only staying for a night. Would have been mad if staying longer

From the manager...

Hi, I'm sorry the grass was so long - with all the rain in July and August, it has grown like crazy and it was hard to find a dry spell to mow. Otherwise we get complaints that people are ending up with wet cut grass in their tents. We have now replaced the gas cylinder so hot water is back - I'm sorry we hadn't realised it had run out. Glad you enjoyed the river and the views.

    We loved the donkeys and the fact that children are encouraged to muck in and help...all the signage around the farm is brilliant for helping educate children and help them understand the nature of the farm
    The farm shop was brill and we loved the cheese and apple juice.
    The farm is in a great location and we loved walking in the local countryside and visiting the nearby pubs..
