Our pitch for bank holiday weekend
The farm house
A lovely sunny day

  • Pitch where you like at a back to basics farm site near Wells
  • Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge within a 10-minute drive
  • Pub two minutes' walk away; water supply and toilets on site
Let your troubles ebb away at Ebborways Farm near Wells, in the scenic heart of Somerset. Perfect for those in pursuit of an authentic camping experience, simplicity is the key here: it’s just you, a field – and a campfire if you like – in sumptuous, serene surroundings. Facilities are limited to a water supply and composting loos, and you can pitch wherever you like, alone or in groups. However, you’re not too far from a bit of civilisation: it’s a short walk to a handful of pubs – including a couple that do top-notch food – and a farm shop, in the local village of Priddy (and pretty it is, too). Fire packs (matches, firelighters, kindling and logs), as well as nets of logs, are available to buy on arrival. Please note that phone signal is very limited here, so you may wish to use the internet for research before you arrive.

Non-electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Loads of space, really quiet, plenty of composting toilet availability (lit at night). Great dog walking around.

Disliked Ground quite uneven, could difficult to find a spot without leveling blocks in busy times (didn't cause us any problems).

Rocky C.

Non-electric grass and earth pitch

Liked We liked the simplicity or just a field, simple toilets and the low price to match.
Things are expensive nowadays but not this campsite.
Great views of sunrise and sunset 👌🏼
We’re climbers who go to Cheddar Gorge from the south east and this is an ideal location for us.
Quick overnight stop, fire in the pits provided and even a bench if you’re lucky.
We’ve stayed twice already and will stay again in our little group of 4.
Thank you ☺️
See you again soon ⛺️ 🔥 🧗

Non-electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Lovely welcome, plenty of space, clean toilets, 10 minute walk to pub (nice food, ale and interior - heads up they can call time early and the chef was inflexible to minor changes on our visit). Quite slopey in places, take levellers if in a vehicle and stay high if heavy rain forecast.

Local attractions

Given the proximity of Bath and Wells, there’s an obvious temptation to regale your companions with choice one-liners from Blackadder; but pause for breath and you’ll discover that both have more celebrated charms than the baby-eating bishop. Bath probably needs less of an introduction: think Roman baths, Georgian grandeur, Jane Austen, rugby and culture aplenty; while Wells, which holds the accolade of England’s smallest city, is a medieval gem with a thirteenth-century cathedral, a moated bishop’s palace, and a lively twice-weekly market. Also highly recommended is a trip to the spectacular Cheddar Gorge, which offers something for all ages: fabulous views; brilliant caving and rock climbing; walks up Jacob’s Ladder; open-top bus tours; a clutch of family attractions; eerie stalactite caverns; and, of course, more cheese than you can shake a stick at. Keen walkers will be delighted by the proximity of the Mendips (Ebborways Farm is close to the West Mendip Way, which runs to the Ebbor Gorge nature reserve); or, for those who prefer life on four wheels, there are loads of fascinating places an easy drive away: atmospheric Glastonbury, the colossal caves and family attractions at Wookey Hole, the vibrant maritime city of Bristol, the fantastic safari and adventure park at Longleat, and the sandy beaches of Weston-super-Mare. Finally, should you feel the need to splash a bit of cash, there are more than 90 outlet shops at the Clarks Village centre, in the nearby village of Street.
