Feeling Chilled in Somerset
Southfield
New owners at this lovely CL in Somerset. Amy and Ian are very friendly and welcoming. At £15 a night for pitch, water and waste and £20 a night adding ehu be sure to book early as there are just five pitches available, three of which are hardstanding. Water and Elsan point easy to access. A very short walk to Parsons cider farm and bus stops directly outside the site to Taunton and beyond.
Great place to stay
Southfield
A gem of a site. Amy welcomed us with tea and biscuits.
The site is beautifully kept and everything very neat and tidy. , the information board was very good.
The site is in an excellent location for getting out and about.
Lots of places within reach. Recommend Coates Willow, Barrington Hall, Glastonbury Tor, Cheddar Gorge., Tyne Court.
The cider from just down the road was good and the nearby farm milk vending machine added bonus.
Glad to be back
Southfield
We have been coming to this CL for years now and really missed it when it was closed last year due to changing owners. We where a little apprehensive coming this year with the new owners, but wow!! Still a lovely CL and the new touches that Amy has made make it even better. We use it as a stop off on our way to Cornwall and to visit friends staying 3 nights this time and 2 on our way back in July, but its worth visiting in its own right with plenty to see & do in the area. Thank you Amy for keeping this lovely CL going, fully recommend it here.
Nice one.
Southfield
Having just spent 5 days at Southfield there is nothing to say except wow. From the initial contact with Amy, through to the welcome cup of coffee and greeting, this is a CL that deserves to succeed. The attention to detail, even down to weeding the hard standings by hand, is a bench mark for other CL’s to take note. We will return.
A lovely site with a lovely welcome
Southfield
We had a brilliant weeks stay, a lovely well kept site, a lovely friendly welcome, Amy even brought us a cup of tea and biscuits, they were very helpful. We visited lots of places near by, we will definitely come again
