Relaxed pop-up site 10 minutes’ drive from Somerton in Somerset
Glastonbury 10 minutes’ drive and Cheddar Gorge 40 minutes
Level grass pitches with modern showers and a covered washing-up area

Bag your spot in a Somerset field for a taste of back-to-nature, no-frills camping. Yep, The Paddock, 10 minutes’ drive from lively Somerton, is a pop-up site with level grass pitches sheltered by natural hedges and offering up woodland and hill views. Facilities on site include toilets, showers with hot water and a washing-up area, all located in the camping paddock. There are also ping-pong tables and other games for the kids as well as hammocks for snoozing in on warmer days. From here, you can go out touring the West Country by car, on foot or by bike. If you fancy a day on the beach, that’s do-able too, with Burnham-on-Sea and Brean about 40 minutes by car; alternatively head south to hit Lyme Regis and Seaton on the Jurassic Coast in about an hour. Barbecues are allowed on the campsite, but if you’re not feeling the alfresco cooking vibe, there’s a pub about five minutes’ walk away that serves local beers, scrumpy cider and freshly prepared meals.
