  • Marked-out pitches or pick your own: site bordered by the River Axe
  • Wookey Hole 2.5 miles; Wells 3.5 miles
  • Farm animals, rope swings and on-site farm shop; pub/café half a mile
What a bewitching place. And most especially for kids: Wookey Farm, a couple of miles from the famed Wookey Hole Caves (and their famed witch), is a tiptop option for small sorts and their owners, with loads of space to run around and a menagerie of animals to coo over. Older offspring will be sizzling with excitement on hearing that they can stoke flames and get social at the communal campfire area, while bigger folk will probably be content to bring along a firepit and laze idly on the family pitch, taking in the views of the Mendip Hills and towards Hembury and Yarley hills… Off site, it's three and a half miles from the farm to cutely compact Wells, six miles to Glastonbury, and a drive of 45 minutes to the coast at Weston-super-Mare. The site is on a small, family-run goat farm where guests are most welcome to meet the menagerie (sheep, pigs, hens and a donkey live here too) and find out all about running a farm. All pitches are in a level two-and-a-half-acre space with marked pitches or in an overflow meadow bordered by the River Axe: you can opt to be as mixed in or as far away as you like. Splashing, paddling and critter spotting can all be had in the river, as can back and forthing merrily on the rope tyre swing over the water (more swings are around the site if this seems slightly too hair-raising). Wookey Farm is an eco-friendly site, with emphasis on keeping things as natural as possible. Facilities are basic but well kept: four compost toilets and washbasins, cleaned twice a day; a washing-up area with water tap alongside; and plenty of facilities for sorting your rubbish (recycling and food waste contributions are keenly welcomed). For those barbecue supplies, the farm is just down the lane from Wookey village's café, shop and three pubs. There's also an on-site farm shop selling the farm's own goat's cheese, goat's milk and meat, along with alcohol, snacks and gifts.

Meadow non-electric grass pitch

Liked Nice place. Relaxing. Had a nice walk to village pub, ring o bells, good food and beer, and nice atmosphere, chat with some random old fellas 🤣

Disliked Compost toilet, not a fan. Site would definitely benefit from proper toilet & shower facilities.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (small)

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.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (small)

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.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (small)

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.

Local attractions

The farm is within easy reach of many top spots as well as Wookey Hole Caves, Glastonbury, Wells and Weston-super-Mare: spectacular Cheddar Gorge is 20 minutes' drive away, Longleat and Bath within 50, and Bristol just under an hour. Quieter times await around the region's walks, such as along the 30 miles of the West Mendip Way running from Wells via Wookey to the sea at Uphill, or the Strawberry Line (also 30 miles), a traffic-free route across Somerset from Shepton Mallet to Clevedon. Closer to home, amble along the River Axe flowing through the farm. Till ringers and fashion fans should take their wallets to Clarks Village, 20 minutes away, for outlet shopping and the Shoe Museum.
