  • Small, level touring park in Banwell at the foot of the Mendip Hills
  • Two miles from the M5 and five from Weston-Super-Mare
  • Plenty of open space and spectacular views
As the owners of Myrtle Farm Holidays rightly point out, its setting at the foot of Somerset's Mendip Hills means there's something here for all sorts. Weston-super-Mare is only five miles away, hilly hikes are on the doorstep, and within a quick drive you'll be at famed Somerset and Wiltshire spots like Cheddar Gorge, Bristol and Bath, Stonehenge, Longleat and anciently idiosyncratic Glastonbury. Its semi-rural location a mile from the village of Banwell has it easily accessible too: Junction 21 of the M5 and Worle train station are both two miles away and Bristol airport within 11 miles. Myrtle Farm is a family-run, small and level touring park, welcoming families and adults, and facing south with excellent views. It's well maintained and spacious with plenty of room for kids to run around. Amenities include a shower and toilet block with underfloor heating and disabled facilities, and a kitchen with a washing machine and tumble dryer, all spotlessly kept and supplied with soap, shower gel and shampoo. A wifi hotspot can be accessed by the amenities. Village pubs, shops, restaurants, takeaways, a post office and a castle (cream teas in the summer, anyone?) are all a mile away at the farm's local village of Banwell.

What customers say

This is a beautifully maintained campsite with immaculate facilities, particularly the shower and toilet blocks. Generous, level pitches and a welcoming atmosphere are frequently praised. Its convenient location near the M5 is ideal for stopovers and exploring local attractions. Some pitches are close to a busy road, resulting in noticeable traffic noise, though many guests find it unobtrusive. A dedicated dog exercise area is a popular addition.

Field 1 non-electric grass pitch (small)

Liked Lovely setting with trees, flowers and shrubs. Good size pitches. Excellent clean toilets and hot showers. Friendly helpful owner. Good location for a stopover when travelling on M5 motorway. There are lots of attractions nearby which we did not have time to see on this short trip but we would like to return. Good value for money.

Liked Everything!
What an absolutely lovely peaceful well organised campsite. Immaculate toilets, beautiful grounds, fenched off dog walking area, brilliant size pitches and no loud music from other campers.
This campsite is going to spoil us for future campsites.

Local attractions

The Myrtle Farm Holidays setting at the foot of the Mendip Hills has it perfectly placed for outdoorsy days, with a vast pick of walks, cycle routes, fishing and birdwatching within easy distance. By car, Cheddar village and the famed and fab Cheddar Gorge are very close by, as is the teeny city of Wells with its cathedral and independent shops. The National Trust-managed Victorian Gothic house of Tyntesfield is ten miles away. Another cracking option is Glastonbury, with its independent shops and cafés, museums, Glastonbury Abbey and Glastonbury Tor. The golden sandy beaches, seaside shops and wide range of restaurants and bars at Weston-Super-Mare, Brean and Burnham-on-Sea are all within a short drive. You'll also be within easy driving distance of the cities of Bristol and Bath and their shopping, theatres, cinemas, museums, bars and restaurants. Travel a little further to get to Wiltshire, where must-sees include Stonehenge and Longleat.
