The Paddock

A aimé First and foremost – the welcome. The owner could not have done more to make us feel at home. Friendly, helpful, and genuinely warm, it makes such a difference when you arrive somewhere and immediately feel looked after. Within about five minutes we felt less like paying guests and more like long-lost relatives who’d popped round for a cuppa and accidentally stayed the weekend.

The site itself is lovely – around 12 grass pitches, all beautifully maintained and well kept. The grass was so neat and pristine it almost felt rude to park on it. The facilities were excellent: always clean, tidy, and well stocked. Honestly, I’ve stayed in hotels with bathrooms less spotless than these. There’s even a small on-site shop with essentials ranging from ice lollies to champagne, all run through an honesty box system, which says a lot about the trust and respect the owner has for guests. It’s wonderfully British really – “help yourself, leave the money, and please don’t run off with the Magnum ice creams.”

There’s also a fantastic games area for children, it’s pet friendly, and they even provide free fire pits – yes, free! In this day and age, when some places would probably charge extra for oxygen after 10pm, this felt positively revolutionary. Evenings spent around the fire pit with a drink in hand and marshmallows slowly turning from “perfectly toasted” to “completely cremated” were definitely a highlight. For us, this is the gold standard of campsites.

The surrounding area is beautiful too, with countless walks, rolling hills, and stunning views that make you briefly consider quitting your job and moving to the countryside permanently. Somerton, Street, and Glastonbury are all within a 10-minute drive, making it a perfect base for exploring. Whether you fancy independent shops, quirky cafés, countryside pubs, or simply pretending you’re on an episode of Escape to the Country, it’s all nearby.

We will absolutely be returning – and probably more than once! In fact, we were halfway through discussing dates for our next visit before we’d even packed the car. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

A aimé It’s obvious a lot of care and attention has gone into the paddock. The pitches are well spaced, the facilities are brilliant and clean, loved the self service honesty shop (the biscoff brownies!!!) bus stop just outside for a quick trip into Glastonbury. Neil was very helpful and friendly, would definitely stay again

Really glad your stay was enjoyable, you guys are welcome back anytime. Thank you for the great review, very much appreciated.

cheers,

A aimé Lovely little site for a stop off when heading back home from Cornwall and Devon. Very helpful owner.

N'a pas aimé Not enough toilets and showers for the amount of people on site. A queue of 10 people on Sunday morning. We gave up and stopped at the nearest service station to freshen up after leaving! This would put us off from staying again unfortunately.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you very much for your lovely review, glad your stay over was enjoyable. We were a little busier on the Sunday, as you'd changed your arrival day to the Saturday from the Sunday. We do have an Elson point, as most campers like the one you arrived in have toilets on board. Glad we could accommodate your last minute change of booking date,

Many thanks,

Neil & Mandy

A aimé Stayed there for a second year, a lovely small campsite that has everything you need. Plenty of staff to do around and very attentive host.
