A real hidden gem

Damian is very accommodating and a real gentleman. Came over to say hi when we arrived and made sure we were all ok. We ended up being later due to a tyre blowout, yet Damian assured us there was nothing to worry about and to take our time. The location is perfect for easy access to Bath, Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole and many other places of interest. The site proved to be very quiet with lots of nature (deer and falcons) around. The facilities (waste & water) are as good if not better than you would get at most club sites let alone CL sites, and very professionally presented. Overall we spent 10 fantastic nights here and would certainly visit again.

Perfect Off Grid

This site will be staying on our favourites list. Damian was very helpful, easy going and left us to it. We had the whole site to ourselves and it is perfect, it has open views of nearby fields yet very private with trees, high shrubs and set well back up the lane from the main road; which meant seclusion and easy access to and from site. It felt so safe we left all our exterior furniture out when taking walks to the surrounding area. The pitch area is set furthest from the lane and is pretty level with perfect East to West sun for the solar panels. On site fresh water, grey waste and chemical wc waste all neatly placed with unfettered access. Tesco super store just a ten/fifteen minute walk from site. No direct over aircraft overflights and road noise from main road is unobtrusive. We had a thoroughly de-stress long weekend that felt like a fortnight. We will definitely be returning in due course and will make it our go to, site for exploring Somerset. CLs are the real way to motorhome.🤘☕️🇬🇧

Peaceful and tranquil

Rang at short notice ,was told no problem and Damien would see us after we settled in. What a nice surprise, lovely field,no frills,good water,waste and rubbish area,great views, lots of nature to see,but the best thing was the calmness and tranquility of the site,as was Damien. We were also lucky to be the only ones on site,which felt amazing,will we return, as Arnie said in The Terminator, I'LL BE BACK !!!

Quiet and family friendly

We stayed here over the August BH weekend and had a lovely time. Arrival is easy and the driveway wide enough to allow our 8ft wide twin axle Caravan in with no trouble. The facilities are basic with only water and waste disposal but this was fine for our requirements. We have never been Off-Grid before but managed absolutely fine, CL's offer a quiet and peaceful experience that is sometimes not always always possible on bigger sites. Our girls loved calling over the horses in the adjacent field and enjoyed looking for nature. With a still summer evening we saw several hot air balloons float overhead and got to see a family of Dear pass by in the lower field. We didn't have much chance to explore the local area (other than a brief trip to Tesco to refuel) but it seems to have lots of attractions nearby for keeping the kids occupied. We're already looking forward to our next trip to Old Mills!

Excellent base to explore

Stayed here at the end of August as wanted a no frills off grid base from which to explore Somerset. The site is very peaceful, well laid out and flat with water and recycling very accessible on site and easy to use. We have a solar panel hand have been tending towards off grid in summer months and it’s worked well this year. We used this site as a great base to explore Cheddar gorge and caves, Bath, Thatchers and Shepton mallet cider making, plus we had a trip out to Bristol. Stonehenge and Weston super mare are not out of reach either. Loads of local amenities close by - Tesco, many takeaways and a small town centre offering all the bits and pieces needed. If you don’t want to use your toilet facilities on van/Motorhome Tesco was ideal at only 1.5 miles away with good facilities. Overall highly recommend hassle free off grid camping in a great location.

Tranquil and peacful.

We stayed here at the end of August and it was a lovely 3 days. The CL is a no frills / off grid experience and it was exactly what we wanted. The site is situated in a perfect location for visiting Bath & Bristol, there are some local walks perfect for the dog and Tesco is just a couple of minutes up the road. If you are in the mood for off grid, no facilities site - i highly recommend this place, we will 100% be back in the near future.
