  • 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.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Stayed over at Newton Brook for 1 night passing through down to Cornwall. Robert and Jane were very helpful, showing us to our electric pitch which was 16 amp. The site looked pretty full but actually it was very quiet as a lot of the vans are workers. Who camp out whilst working near the site.
We walked down to Pynes farm shop approx 1 mile, well woth the walk down. Jane even said she would come and pick us up if we didn't fancy the walk back. We did walk back and later that day Jane and Robert came our van making sure we had got back safely. They also brought us a bench and table so we could sit out and eat our evening meal, again very thoughtful. The showers were great, lovely hot water. Two cubicles for the ladies with toilet, shower, sink and a chair, lovely and clean. The men had about 5 toilets and 5 showers. Very nice too and again spotlessly clean. They are in the throws of doing a new toilet block for the ladies as they had had a few leaks. Will be very smart when finished.
A useful pot wash should you need it.
A games room as well with pool, table tennis, darts and other things.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Liked Large spacious pitches. Facilities on site and a enclosed dog run. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Disliked Nothing really, there was some noise from the M5 but we didn't find it bothered us. It is close to a football club and there was a wedding reception there one night which went on until 20 to two in the morning.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Wow what a site perfect for many reasons, we were visiting relatives in the area. This site is also perfect for an overnight stay when traveling south , we stayed for 3 nights. Jane and Robert made us feel so welcome on arrival, Robert showed us to our pitch and explained everything we needed to know. Clean and more than enough facilities, showers, toilets and washing up areas spotless . There was also a game’s room , we didn’t use it but there was alot to choose from in there. We would definitely recommend this site.

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.
