Loves hill camping
Weekend visitors lapping up the sun

  • Simple family-friendly Somerset campsite; pick your own pitch
  • On the edge of Timsbury, 20 minutes' drive from Bath and Wells
  • Firepits and wood available; 10 minutes' walk from the village centre
Loves Hill Camping is a fuss-free pop-up site on the edge of Timsbury. This family-friendly spot is a pleasant place to spend some time, surrounded as it is by lush green hills and given its easy access to beauty spots like the Mendip Hills and the southern Cotswolds. Timsbury is also well-placed for day trips to all those West Country towns and cities you've always meant to visit: Bath (20 minutes' drive), Wells (20 minutes) and Bristol (30 minutes) are all within a short drive, opening up lots of varied day trips and family attractions. The site has plenty of space and operates a 'pick your own pitch' policy, meaning your group is free to roam over its generous grounds until you've found your favourite spot. Loves Hill Camping's facilities include composting toilets and showers. In addition, firepits are available to hire and logs can be picked up from site staff. Loves Hill Camping is conveniently close to the village centre but just far away from the houses and cars to feel properly rural. It'll take you roughly 10 minutes on foot to get to Timsbury's supermarket, pub and fish and chip shop; local bus services can also be flagged down here.

What customers say

A relaxed, friendly campsite with private, level pitches. Welcoming hosts, clean facilities, and optional breakfast. Walkable to shops/pubs. Some found composting toilets unusual, but most loved the peaceful atmosphere. Minimal dog/aircraft noise noted.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Really enjoyed our 1 night stay - fully booked but you wouldn’t know it - very chilled atmosphere! Friendly welcome and lovely family who rub the site. Compost loos clean and easy to use. Nice views, heard owls in the night! Extra bonus they were serving delicious breakfast baps and fresh coffee in the morning.

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked Lovely location, the field was peaceful and the long grass sections made it feel more private. The hosts were fantastic, lovely and helpful. I’d made a mistake with the booking and they were happy to help. Lovely hot showers, optional cold showers too. We had a very yummy breakfast bap in the morning that were being sold from a converted horse box. Lovely place and people, would definitely come back.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Wonderfully clean and fully attended at all times by the owners. A great cafe in the mornings for breakfast is a lovely little luxury. Hosts were lovely people too.

Disliked The email saying they wasn't sure about fires. I didnt take my bbq as from the email it seemed it wasn't allowed but everyone else had fires and bbqs ??

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked Arrived on site and was greeted by Nick ( the owner ). Very friendly Guy and told us if we needed anything, please just ask. Very clean toliets and wash area, also hot and cold showers on site. Fire pits and wood available and also morning breakfast rolls and drinks to purchase from the horse box. We’ll definitely use the site again 👍

Disliked Nothing.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!
This is up there with one of our best camping trips.
From the minute we spoke to Nick on the phone, we knew we’d come to the right site.
Nick and Becky have such a chilled, relaxed attitude, and totally get that everyone’s there to have a good time and enjoy their stay. The vibe around the site was a reflection of this.
The site was clean and tidy, with the showers and toilets regularly cleaned, and the bins constantly emptied.
You can pitch up wherever you choose instead of being instructed to take a specific spot.
Breakfast muffins and hot drinks could be purchased if you didn’t have your own cooking facilities or want to cook.
Our ice packs were chilled, our phones were charged, and I had somewhere I could plug my hairdryer into.
There’s a great walk leading to the village pub, and a co-op and Spar around 10 mins walk away.
Can not fault the site or Nick, Becky and their lovely family.
This is an absolute hidden gem!
We will 100% be back next year.

Disliked Going home.

Liked Gorgeous relaxed site which feels much more remote than its village location. Natural defined pitches, great loos and shower set up and a lovely owner. Lovely local walks and great local pub.
