  • Family-run Somerset campsite near Bridgwater, with easy M5 access
  • A 15-minute drive to the Quantock Hills, and 20 to Burnham-on-Sea
  • Modern showers, communal kitchen and dog run; pubs 10 minutes’ drive
Looking for a quiet, family-orientated caravan park with generous-sized pitches in Somerset? Your search is over, for Newton Brook Caravan and Camping near Bridgwater is that place. It’s a friendly spot to overnight (it’s a short drive from Junction 24 of the M5 motorway) if you’re heading to Cornwall, or for longer stays if you’d like to make further forays into Somerset. Facilities to make life easy for families on site are tiptop, with a spotless, contemporary shower and loo block, plus a communal kitchen with fridges, microwave and washing-up sinks to make rustling up supper a breeze. North Petherton village (10 minutes’ drive) is the spot for picking up essentials in the convenience store (and it has a sprinkling of pubs and cafés if cooking is off limits on your holiday). As well as welcoming kids – there’s green space on site to play around safely and a smartly kitted-out games room to keep everybody occupied – the park is dog-centric too. Any canine with a zoomie attack can run around in the enclosed field, and there are walks aplenty along the Taunton Bridgwater Canal to tire everybody out (dog included). The park is located right next to a family farm, so you can often spot cattle and sheep grazing contentedly in surrounding fields, with the chance to see gambolling lambs in early spring and calves a bit later in the year.

Liked: Bardzo ładny i zadbany camping, czyste i ekskluzywne łazienki, można się rozbić namiotem gdzie się chce. Wyjazd na drugi dzień o której godzinie chcesz. Brama wjazdowa lub wyjazdowa na kemping ma specjalną barierę, która uniemożliwia kradzież kampera lub przyczepy kempingowej do tego jest kamer które monitorują cały kamping. W łazienkach gra muzyka. Polecam kemping. Pozdrawiam serdecznie

Liked: We spent one night here and really enjoyed the place. The toilets were very clean, and there was a guy who explained the site to us as soon as we arrived. There's also a playroom for kids, which was a bonus. The location is really close to the M5. We stayed for one night on our way back from Cornwall to Liverpool. It's also close to Kelvi, where we spent some time looking fossils.

Liked: A very friendly welcome to a great quiet site. The standards of the site, especially the toilets/showers (even displays of fresh flowers in the Ladies block) and shared kitchen area, were exceptional. Very dog friendly with a specific dog run area.

Local attractions

If you’re planning on sticking around in Somerset for a while, you’re in pole position here for days out exploring by car. Head to north-coast beaches like Berrow (half an hour’s drive) and Burnham-on-Sea (20 minutes) for some family fun splashing in the shallows, or turn south and treat the kids to a day out on the rollercoasters and 4D rides at Crealy Theme Park and Resort (50 minutes). Rather explore on foot? There's plenty of choice for walkers around here, with the gorgeous Quantock Hills (15 minutes) or Blackdown Hills Areas of Outstanding Nature Beauty (40 minutes) riddled with hiking trails. Travel a little further and you can discover the walking routes of wild Exmoor, as well as historic spots like Tarr Steps clapper bridge (an hour) and the pretty town of Dulverton (50 minutes). Other places you might like to consider exploring are Wells (45 minutes), with its spectacular cathedral and castle, or funky little Glastonbury (40 minutes), awash with hippy shops and cute little cafés.
