OK, so the weather was sunny and warm all weekend, but even had it not been so this truly delightful CL would have won our hearts. To us, it's one of the very best we've ever used, and we've used a lot of very good ones over the years.
It provides all the basics - fresh water, electric hook-ups, waste disposal, chemical emptying facilities. I guess we've come to expect most, if not all, of these as the norm.
Where Pitts Farm excels is in its location and surroundings. The CL is a spacious field, bounded by hedges on three sides and a wood on the fourth. It slopes gently to one end, is otherwise flat and has a single hard standing for when the weather isn't as kind as it was for our visit. All around are truly splendid views over rural Somerset and even across to Dorset. It's a beautiful, wonderful view of English countryside with farmsteads and ancient woodlands. Wonderful!
The CL field were closely mown on our visit - John, the owner told us he'd taken notice of some earlier comments - and we found some peaceful and interesting walks down the lanes and across a number of footpaths.
The four, rather than five, stars for 'ease of arrival' is a nod to the fact that to reach this rural idyll you do have to drive the final 1.2 miles along a single track road. Bear in mind that there's very little traffic and we had no problems at all in our 7.2m motorhome even when exploring some of the narrower lanes in the area.
The location is great for visiting Wells, Glastonbury, Shepton Mallet and the Somerset levels. We loved our time here and look forward to coming back.
