  • Rural Somerset site crossed by a stream a five-minute drive from Frome
  • Longleat 10 minutes’ drive; Wookey Hole Caves 35 minutes
  • Play area with miniature adventure course
A gorgeously rural corner of Somerset is the setting for Seven Acres Camping Site, which stretches over (you guessed it…) seven acres on the edge of the Longleat Estate, a five-minute drive from the town of Frome. A stream runs through the site, which is just off the B3092; this makes it easy to access, but it also means you may hear some traffic noise. A railway line runs parallel to the road, too… but you might find that the jolly whistling of a passing train rather adds to the romance of camping. It’s all about perspective, isn’t it? Regardless, forget the possible noises and accentuate the positive, starting with oodles of space and a play area with play equipment and a miniature adventure course where the kids can climb, slide and swing to their hearts’ content (while you keep an eye on proceedings from the nearby shaded bench). Your canine companion is not left behind either, with plenty of dog-friendly walks in the surrounding area. Have a go at the circular Mells Walk (10 minutes’ drive), following the course of the Mells River; or head to Clanger Wood (20 minutes’ drive), known for its bluebell meadows and colourful butterflies. Cranborne Chase National Landscape (35 minutes) has trails leading through its distinctive landscape of chalk river valleys and escarpments; this area is also an International Dark Skies Reserve, so be sure you have all you need to stay until after sundown for some spectacular stargazing.

What customers say

Lovely, tidy campsite with mature trees and a stream. Guests rave about the spacious sites, great facilities (loads of toilets/showers), and helpful staff. Handy for local sights. Some found WiFi lacking and pitches/signage occasionally dim, but most thought it was excellent and would come back.

Liked Such a beautiful place well maintained whilst letting nature be. All the basic amenities that you need that are clean tidy and modern. this place is perfect for those who want some time away
with their family friends or loved one's whilst surrounded by nature.
We loved the booking and access process all being self checking it keeps that feel of rocking up somewhere plotting up and sticking your feet up and not having to go through the hole checking in at reception having to tell him your life story and being told where to go, all the information was sent prior to our arrival. we had a fantastic time and are looking forward to going back.

Disliked There wasn’t any :-)

Liked Clean.

Disliked Too many trees made pitches very dark and gloomy. Pitches small. Not any clear signage. People parked vehicles on our side of pitch. Found shower arrangement odd. Could only find one tap which could not easily access to attach hose to fill up van tank without going across another pitch.. No staff on site. Could see that work was in progress so maybe things will improve but for us we would not return. The camping field looked more welcoming . To us all lacking the camaraderie we normally find .

Lovely pitches
The play area

Disliked Not so much a dislike but No designated off lead exercise area to walk dogs which isn’t usually a problem but I couldn’t see where you could take a dog off site for a walk without going in the car .
There may have been footpaths nearby but wasn’t aware of them.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Pretty surroundings in amongst mature trees and a stream. We were not bothered by the road / train noise. Self check in process was very easy.

Disliked A relatively minor point, but due to late check in allowance until 10pm, a family arrived at 9.55pm and began to set up a large tent nearby at a time we were trying to get an early night.

Terri J.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked It really is a beautiful site, there were a fair few camper vans but we were camping and there were only a couple tents. Lots of space, children loved exploring in the woods and on the play area. Dog friendly. Matt was lovely and came to check we were ok on the first night. Can intermittently hear the road or train but honestly not enough to cause a problem/notice. Facilities were clean and tidy. We visited Longleat on Saturday and we were 10mins away. Would definitely visit again 😊😊

Local attractions

Budding zoologists might enjoy a day at Longleat (10 minutes’ drive), where you can drive through vast enclosures housing big cats, wolves and rhinos; get hopelessly lost in Britain’s largest hedge maze; and take a tour of the 16th-century stately home, with its splendid artworks and tapestries. Wookey Hole Caves (35 minutes), on the southern edge of the Mendip Hills National Landscape, features a subterranean network of limestone caverns and passages with evocative names like Witch’s Kitchen. After having a go at the caving experience, check out the lifesize creatures at Dinosaur Valley or unwind on the miniature golf course. Treat yourself to a visit to Bath (35 minutes). The Roman bath complex in the centre of town includes a sacred spring and a museum displaying ancient artefacts. Follow that with afternoon tea at the Regency Tea Room at the Jane Austen Centre, where you can pretend to be Emma or Mr Darcy.
