What customers say

A neat, spick-and-span site with super-friendly owners. Families love the showers & games room. Mostly level pitches with good facilities, plus security gate. Close to Longleat. Some found pitches a bit close & noted slight road noise.

Crabby Apple cabin

Liked Fantastic, small and very well equipped campsite. The cabin was great too, had all the kitchen utilities and gas and camping stove. Chairs outside and table such a bonus. Washing facilities clean and cool design.

Disliked Can hear the road a bit at night. Water in the tap very hot!

Diana J.

Electric optional grass and gravel motorhome pitch

Liked Everything about staying here.We have been 3/4 times as the grand children love it.The youngest who is five said she likes it because she can run about and play freely.that says it all from that age my eldest grand daughter loves the pool table and the other games room.I asked them where they would like to go in motor home and they always say the Den & orchard so we will be back again.The staff we saw are lovely helpful if you need anything.so looking forward will see you again.

Disliked Mozzie bites,never been in August before and they really had a chew on us!!! The main road seemed very loud this time full of racers,

Angus N.

Electric optional grass and gravel motorhome pitch

Liked Pitch set up was good. Water was on each pitch. All nicely laid out.
Location was good as only an hour walk to Frome.

Disliked Shower/toilet block needs updating. A few more showers are needed for the size of the site. No one around to answer any questions. We did ring the bell for reception after 3pm as requested, but no one came. Information about the surrounding area would have been helpful. Even a map to get to Frome.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked Spotless showers and toilets, friendly staff, and a peaceful, scenic setting perfect for sunset views and stargazing. Each pitch has its own picnic table. Ideal spot to relax, recharge, and enjoy the outdoors.

Apple Blossom lodge

Liked Was clean, including the toilet and showers, plenty of space. Nice to have tea and coffee.

2nd visit to the Den and Orchard. Last visited in 2021. Site has been updated with parking spaces near pods, small play area for children and of course the new Apple Blossom Lodge which I don’t remember being there last visit. Lovely especially visiting with our toddler this time. Will definitely consider visiting again

Fiona E.

Electric optional grass and gravel motorhome pitch

Liked After a 2 week holiday touring in our campervan, we stayed here for 3 nights. Arriving late our daughter went straight down to the park to play whilst we set everything up. It’s a private gated community so we felt very secure to let our daughter play.
I would return in a heartbeat. We all loved our stay. It is an immaculate site and everything has been thought about to make camping easy and a joy. It has been an absolute pleasure and we were incredibly sad to leave. Well done to the owner into making your site so beautiful. Our daughter had so much fun, thank you.

Local attractions

Work up an appetite for the next meal tackling the mountain bike trails at Windhill Bike Park or seeking out one of the circular walking trails in the Cranborne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty; both are about 10 minutes away by car. If you’d like your walks to take in pretty gardens and historic buildings, head to Nunney Castle (five minutes’ drive), The Walled Garden at Mells (10 minutes) or Stourhead National Trust property (15 minutes). Bath’s half an hour away for urban strolls with a Roman tinge, and fishing is 15 minutes away at Shearwater Lake for those who need a bit of a rest. You’ll easily fill a day over at Longleat (15 minutes away), driving the safari trails, visiting all the different animal areas, touring the house and pottering through the pleasure gardens. The famed caves and kid-friendly attractions at Wookey Hole are about half an hour away.
