Wookey Farm

Liked We loved the campsite, lovely and quiet. Our pitch was a small non electric pitch on field 1 and was a little clearing in amongst the trees which was ideal in the warm weather. Compost loos were nice. We loved the animals in site and the lovely little shop. We enjoyed paddling in the shallow river running through the campsite.

Liked Fantastic site with the perfect pitches on campsite 1. Animals, streams and a pub all in walking distance. Fantastic value for money.
Wells 5 mins drive, Cheddar 10 mins drive & Glastonbury 15 mins drive. Great base to explore Somerset.
Really enjoyed the goats being milked and the feeding of the goats and pigs in the morning with the children.

Disliked Nothing.

Liked The whole place was exactly what we needed.

Basic and loads of nature to explore. We were meant to stay in campsite 1, but I read the sign wrong on arrival and ended up in campsite 2, BIG open field… Was a brilliant mistake as we pitched up under a tree with a swing and right next to the river. The whole site felt safe for kids to wonder.

Gutted we couldn’t stay longer… Next time!

Disliked Longer opening times on the shop and more stock.

We did purchase some frozen goat meat though and look forward to trying it.

Liked Beautiful, peaceful spot for a night away from home (we only live down the road but any excuse to get away and we'll come here). Lovely walks right on the doorstep. Love a site that doesn't bother you when you arrive or leave, and everyone seemed very respectful of each other's space and peace. Compost loos well managed and even on a baking hot day, don't smell or cause any issues. Woke early beause the dog needed a trip to the loo, and it was absolute heaven to quietly stroll around the field (we were in field 2) before anyone else had emerged from their tents/vans. Rather than going back to bed, I got my chair out and just sat watching the sky turn pink and the light slowly creep across the field. Obviously we were lucky with the weather, but the peace and quiet would be great at any time. Highly recommend!

Liked Location makes this site good for visiting chedder gorge & caves etc we stayed on campsite 1 far less busy than campsite 2 which was ok , kids loved the farm animals and theres handy little shop , very clean flat pitches nice size .

Disliked Fire pits were unusable as there between pitch’s and ppl’s tents or cars were literally a couple of feet away making them completely unusable only a couple of ppl used the fire pits on empty pitch’s , we couldn't the compostable toilet's there probably the nicest & cleanest compostable loo’s iv ever seen but my god the smell is enough to knock a horse out theres no sawdust just pure sawage and two full tanks just sitting outside made the smell even worse with the slightest breeze you could smell them and we werent camp no where near , it 100% needs sawdust of something everyone was complaining about them , also not the site owners fault but lack of presence means some campers who were in groups literally turn feral we had kids screaming and running around well past quiet time adults starting there cars shinning there led headlights into our tent while blowing air beds up 10:30 at night woke both my children , hitting cars with footballs and frisbees , playing music half the night , loudly arguing as other campers mentioned to me if someone popped in just to check on things now & then it might deter ppl from acting so badly , im glad we only stayed a weekend lovely site pity about the toilets & fire pits & some unruly guests

From the manager: Hi,
I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your stay at Wookey farm. We add the sawdust ourselves, twice a day. This is to avoid blockages in the urine pipe as unfortunately that kept happening when we allowed campers (and children) to put their own dust in. Other campers have reported no smell from our system or have complemented them on being the best compost loos they've ever used but I appreciate this heat hasn't helped and everyone has their own reaction to them.
I am sorry you were disturbed by other campers - we do pop around and try and take note of things when cleaning the toilets but I'm sorry that on your weekend, there were noisy and inconsiderate campers.

Liked great spot lovely space nice view beautiful place

Disliked toilets were a bit smelly and spidery

Liked Loved our stay. The firepit was a bonus and the hosts were really helpful when we forgot to bring our plug for the electric. Lovely animals on site and the farm shop sausages were amazing

Liked Our stay was lovely, everything you need on site and the owners are lovely. The loos were kept impeccably clean and the site is well maintained, lots of animals around to go and say hi to which we loved. Really liked how stripped back everything was, made our stay very relaxing, we will definitely be returning :)

Disliked The only thing i’d mention is how hard it is to find the site if you aren’t super local! multiple satnavs took us the wrong way and it took for us to stop at a nearby pub for someone to advise us of how to get there.

Liked Amazing location, so close to great attractions like wookey hole and Glastonbury. We had a lovely secluded pitch surrounded by trees with it's own campfire. Cute little spring that my 4 year old loved playing in. Loved the animals on the farm that you can go and see. Really easy check in with names on a blackboard with pitch number. Will definitely come back!

Disliked Not a dislike but would be amazing if there was a little kids play area and BBQs to rent.
