  • Walks in the Blackdown Hills National Landscape 15 minutes' drive away
  • A 10-minute drive from the M5 and 40 minutes from the southwest coast
Seeking some simple Somerset serenity? Grab yourselves a pitch at Gamlins Farm Touring Park, which has a splendid 2.6 acres of peaceful countryside to its name. The touring pitches here are spacious and surrounded by lovely hill views, making it just the spot for a bit of quiet rural relaxation. It’s a family-run and family-friendly place where dogs are welcome too – both kids and dogs are likely to appreciate the chance to run about in the open air while the grownups put their feet up and soak up the views. All the essential facilities have been provided here, including a launderette, a chemical disposal point, toilets and showers. Guests are welcome to bring barbecues or light campfires; pick up supplies at the shops in nearby Wellington (10 minutes’ drive) or Taunton (20 minutes). Both towns are also good places to find places to eat out, and there are also several pubs to pick from in the local villages. As it’s only a 10-minute drive from the M5, Gamlins Farm makes a handy stopover point for those taking on a long motorway trip. It’s worth a trip in its own right too, though, for a few days chilling out in scenic surroundings with your family, your pals, your other half or just your good self. Locations on the southwest coast of England, including Exmouth and Sidmouth, are 40 to 45 minutes' drive away from the site.

Liked: Liked: Everything.
Lisa and Woody were so friendly and gave a great welcome upon my arrival. Very informative and just lovely people. I just knew that I could approach them to ask a question or if there were any issues as they were so approachable but there was no problems at all.
The campsite was immaculate, toilets and showers were spotlessly clean. Lovely touches with the ladies toiletries, lovely hand soap and a decent hand dryer.
Pitches were really well laid out and looked after. Loads of space for me and my bestie to chill out under the stars.
Great facilities.
The site is still new and Lisa and Woody are just starting out but it's clear they are passionate and interested in their guests which is just great.
It says there are firepits included with the pitches when you book it but as Lisa and Woody haven't been up and running for long, they haven't managed to get them yet.
This was no issues for me whatsoever as I had one with me. Just incase that's make or break for someone.
Had the best night with my bestie. We will be back again. It's so easy and convenient to find and a little piece of tranquility. Sooo nice to get away for a night. It really is the best medicine.

Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: We received a really friendly welcome.
Pitches were really well laid out and looked after.
Small site so easy to chat to people.
Incredibly clean bathrooms.
Great facilities.
Chickens!! Holding the baby chicks.
Landscaping is really good.

Disliked: Could do with a few more trees or shrubs around to make it even more beautiful.
Would be nice to have some things for children - even as simple as a swing or some hammocks in the trees or a hopscotch drawn somewhere.

From the manager: Heartfelt thanks for your feedback! It was incredibly lovely meeting you, and your little one stole the show! We really enjoyed your company. We have a big box of tricks for the kiddlywinks now - with books, games, paper and crayons! A great idea, thank you. Hope to see you again soon! Warmest wishes, Lisa and Woody

Local attractions

The main focus at this site is usually relaxing in the lovely rural setting rather than packing days full of busy excursions. There are, however, plenty of options for low-key outings, including walks in the nearby Blackdown Hills National Landscape (15 minutes’ drive) or at the Bridwell Park estate (10 minutes), where you may well encounter deer in the grounds. For other outdoor activities nearby, train your aim at Abbey Burton Clay Shooting (15 minutes), play a round at Oake Manor Golf Club (20 minutes) or head to Somerset Adventures (20 minutes) for archery, climbing and watersports. For something a little bit different (but thoroughly rural), how about meeting some cute companions at Somerset Sheep Trekking or Stoke Wood Alpacas (both 25 minutes)? If you need indoor attractions for a damp day, both the Museum of Somerset and County Classics Motor Museum in Taunton (20 minutes) are worth visiting. There’s also an intriguing little museum/heritage centre at Upottery Airfield (25 minutes) for anyone with an interest in flying and/or the area’s role in World War II.
