What a great discovery this CL was! We were looking for a few days close to the Somerset/Dorset border and this fit the bill perfectly. Can't add much to the praise of the last couple of reviews. Level HS pitches or, if you prefer, grass (although you might need an extra EHU cable depending where on the grass you pitch). There were always 4 or 5 vans while we were there(never more!) so it's obviously doing something right! There's a very usable loo/shower room and apart from the light at the door, absolutely no other lighting on the site which made for a spectacular view of last week's Harvest Moon. Peter will email you a very thorough information pack before you arrive which includes a short history of the house together with information on local shops/pubs (Chard town centre is only a mile away) and places of interest (Force Abbey is the nearest) and even a copy of the bus timetable - the stop is just 100 yards down the road. It's a great area for walking, some direct from the site and we also started walks from the nearby villages of Combe St Nicholas, Thornecombe and from Ilminster. 4 days really wasn't enough to do the area justice and, as it's only a couple of hours towing time from home, we'll certainly be back.

(Maybe ought to add that I agree with Gazza's route below, particularly if arriving from the east -Crewkerne direction - usingvthe B roads just beyond Cricket St Thomas gives a more straight forward approach than the one via Chard itself.)
