The Lorax Patch

Liked This was a lovely campsite - it has just a few pitches, very private, with long grass between them. The facilities were great and the owner was lovely to deal with. I really enjoyed my 1 night stay.

Liked Lovely little site with pitches cut into the long grass and a table / fire-pit with each pitch. Toilet facilities were good and the shower worked well. Site owner was very friendly when we met in the morning

Disliked I had difficulty finding the site using the address Pitch Up supplied; problem solved when I put Lorax Patch into Google maps

From the manager: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I'll try and improve the way that Pitch Up directs people to our site. Google Maps is certainly the best option!

Liked Lovely campsite, great location and excellent facilities

From the manager: Thanks very much for taking the time to leave a review, we hope to see you again!

Liked We had a fabulous one night stay at The Lorax Patch. The site was beautiful, clean and the staff were friendly.

We particularly loved: the space between each pitch, the fact each pitch came with a table and fire pit, the outdoor shower and the rope swing over the stream!

We would love to return some time soon! The perfect escape from reality for 24 hours!

Disliked Our only slight quibble was the lack of communication ahead of our stay. I recommend messaging one of the numbers provided ahead of your stay so that you’re a bit more well prepared than we were!
However, once we had been in touch, Gabe was quick to send over the info we needed and showed up on site to check we had everything we needed.

From the manager: Thanks for coming, and thank you for the review. Comments noted, and we will do our best to get more info out to guests in advance.

Liked Peaceful and natural setting, with a small number of camping pitches + semi-permanent tent domes. Nice clean toilets, great shower (but only 1). Friendly owner.

Disliked Could hear the traffic at night, only occasionally though

From the manager: Thanks for such a lovely review, glad you enjoyed your stay. Please come again!

Liked Everything, we booked the yurt it was clean, clean bedding, fire wood stocked up, a few kids games and books available as well, toilets and shower was clean, site was clean and hosts fantastic and friendly, site is small but we loved it

From the manager: What a beautiful review, thanks so much for coming and for taking the time to leave a review. We hope to see you again!

Liked Lovely spaceous relaxed site. Big field, with 5 pitches and some other accommodation like yurts. So very peaceful. Clean facilities (hope they stay that clean). Great shower. Close enough to Wells without being on the city edge.

Disliked Nothing. Everything was great for me. Note anyone with lots of gear will have a workout (it's better than having cars in the field), no lighting (but can see stars instead,... And sleep), most tents had fires (it is a campsite ...but asthma suffers be aware). So no dislikes.

From the manager: Really appreciated, many thanks for coming, and thank you for the review. Good info for other guests, I had never really thought about the asthma issue.
Please come again!

Liked We stayed in the furnished yurt which was beautiful.
The loos were clean and the shower hot.
The stream and rope swing were big hits with the kids
Seeing so many stars at night.

Disliked I was scared my kids may affect the compost loos, but the instructions were clear so there were no problems.

From the manager: Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review, and I'm glad you had such a good time. Thank you also for the positive compost loo feedback. Great to hear!

Liked Everything! Peace and quiet, space, clean and tidy, off grid but so homely. Will definitely visit again.

Disliked Nothing!

From the manager: So good to read this, thanks for taking the time to write a review.
Peaceful, clean and homely is 100% what we are aiming for!

Do come again

Liked Quite location with good space between pitches. Each pitch has its own picnic table and fire pit. Priced per person. Well maintained facilities. The only reason I might give it less than five stars is that in future, when the new trees have grown, it will be even better.

Disliked It was a long trek from the car parking area with our camping gear. Bring a trolley if you gave one.

From the manager: Thanks so much for the review, and the useful feedback.
We now have planning permission for a stone trackway from the parking area to the barn, so in future the walk from car to pitch will be much shorter.
Come back and see the trees next year!
