What customers say
This small, peaceful campsite offers a relaxed atmosphere with beautiful rural views. Guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, clean facilities, and the option of a pop-up bar. Improvements to the shower block have been ongoing, with some reports of dated or temperamental facilities, particularly in the men's block. Access for larger vehicles on the farm track has also been noted. The site is well-signposted and provides a good base for exploring the local area.

From the manager: Wow
What an upsetting score you have given me
I have no response as there doesnt seem to be specific critisisms ... other than the shower block which i am always transparent about and which is constantly being updated and improved?
Not sure re the vehicle...yes we are a farm track .... but large biffas and deliveries and even recently a 35ft mobilt home have negotiated it?
Hopefully people will see past this review ... and if they want a small friendly generally peaceful site with great views elsan showerblock ehu weekend pop up bar....in rural somerset they will come here

Liked It was a very peaceful place to stay, with fantastic views and great facilities. The kids really enjoyed their time there. Sandy was very welcoming and explained everything in detail. This morning, she even took my children to collect some eggs, and they absolutely loved the experience.

Peaceful and quiet site with amazing views.
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked We have had the most fantastic stay at sunnyhill. Staff were all lovely, views were stunning, friendly animals to see that had lots of space and some were roaming freely. It was the perfect small site. Also only 30 minutes from longleat safari park where we took a day trip. The little bar was lovely and the food was really nice which added something abit different to the stay (live music on one night)

Peaceful, clean, friendly. Great views. Well cared for site.
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Easy to find from the main road, well signposted with lovely painted signs. Set back away from the main road, quiet peaceful location.
Received a warm welcome from the owner when I arrived. She was very friendly and showed me around the campsite and facilities and where my pitch for the night was.
The pitch was spacious with beautiful views. Electric hookup up kept me warm and cosy. Loved that there was a picnic bench on my pitch and fire pit for me to use.
Wash up area was clean and water hot, sponge and washing up liquid by sink in case you needed it. The toilet and shower block is beautifully decorated, showers hot, everything super clean. Toilet block was nice and warm when it was cold and windy outside.
Thank you for such a lovely stay. Wish I had stayed longer and gone for a walk on the footpaths, I’ll visit again!

Friendly, clean & convenient for a quiet short break
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked We stayed for 2 nights on 16th & 17th October 2025.
Small quiet rustic site with nice view of valley & trees in autumnal colours. Gravel hard standing & electric.
Lovely walk through site & fields to Wincanton. Enjoyed good company & great burgers & cider at the on-site Jolly Farmer.
Convenient washing up area.
Ladies wash room & facilities where Sandy had shown nice creativity & given thought to the little things like hooks, mirrors & seats.
Disliked Men’s washroom & showers which felt rather basic in comparison to ladies, particularly flooring, half sized toilet doors offering minimal privacy & no chair. Shower cold & tripped easily. We know Sandy has been trying to sort this issue.

From the manager: Hi
I am glad you liked my little site, Sunnyhill Campsite has evolved from her roots
She has been my entire life for the last 7 years and i have reinvested throughout that time constantly striving to improve the site whilst not removing its intimate rural peaceful vibe, and bohemian feel.
we really enjoyed your company and hope the recovery is going well
I hope you wont mind me using my response to your review to high light a few things for future guests x
The shower block has been a massive financial money pit, i have had it all rewired, new showers, new breaker in the new fuse box, new washing up sinks, new drainage, water pump and ibcs for the failing water pressure that burnt out shower after shower (average replacing 8 showers) new flooring in the ladies, and although she is now due her annual revamp i am glad you still enjoyed them in Oct which shows she isnt to bad LOL
As for the mens, they had to be gutted 2020 so the tiled shower cubicles and gully drains were 2021, the stone flooring in the mens 2023, the covered washing up area for all 2024/25, new toilets 2022, hand drier 24, sink '23. New lighting with censors 23. There are hooks on the mens shower doors, but i will also get a couple shower chairs if you feel this is important. There is a shower chair in the ladies. I do not know why the showers would be cold in the mens? and the trip issue is the bain of my life. The shower on the right seems fine but the oe on the left does seem to trip unless its on eco, something that the electrician still doesnt seem able to correct. lets hope the removing of emersions etc helps?....as for the doors they were made by us from 22mm marine ply. the 2 door ways are not conventional sizes
i believe my friend who helps me with maint has said she will add another 6 inches to the bottom of the doors as there has been you and one other reporting this as something they dont like
i have done some bits in the mens this week and put a new video of them on Facebook, tiktok, instagram, this should help future guest to see the mens before arrival
I hope that fully answers you points
and again
Good luck with your recovery remember you still have purpose xx
