Only reason I dont give this a full 5 stars is confusion on access. The farm style gate says 'camping field' but next to it a sign says 'pitch up', after driving into pitch up, thinking that is where they want us to stop to be allocated a pitch, with no one around, realised that the 'pitch up' site is from the commercial site not the CL, hey ho, BUT only a few pitches on this part and it is set well away from the CL, so after turning round then a quick sprottle to get into the site, very nice indeed. Well spaced out pitches, the EHU points are also very well spaced out so you shouldnt get crowded in. Flat level, well cut grass, few trees braking up the field. Peaceful site, yes there is a road (well obviously) and although it is a single lane road, it does get a bit of traffic, but not enough noise to notice and nice and quiet at night. Unfortunately, there are no really good views from the site (unlike the pitch up part) but you cant have everything. Dog walking in field at the site, loo and shower (basic but do the job) honesty farm shop with cream teas. Not fully serviced pitches, and the water pressure is low, (but it is in the shower sink as well). Pub at the end of the road (sadly out of walking distance) but ideal spot for Highbridge, Brunham on Sea and a bit further away, Glastonbury. 5 mins or so from M5, J22, but dont just make it an overnight stop, take a few days here, we will next year. All in all a very nice spot
perfect!
I needed a one-night stay-over in my campervan on the way up North and this was perfect. Really easy to find, easy access, electric hook-up, toilet and shower...everything I needed. Also, the pitch is very quiet and level.
Annabel was really lovely and checked that I was set up okay. All in all 10/10!
Thank you!
Lovely lawned location
Level lawned site, very well maintained. Easy access from M5. Excellent cycling base for Somerset. Old Spot bakery in Mark (about a mile away) is particularly good. Wookey Hub cafe in Wookey (not in Wookey Hole) is also worth a visit. We stayed here in July and came back in October. Will return again next year. It is now £15/night excellent value.

return visit
another great break at Rookery farm,immaculate grounds,peaceful, all in all 1st class. Roll on next visit.
Brilliant
A gem of a site,made to feel welcome. Facilities are excellent, will hopefully be back next year.
not much to do
lovely well kept site , toilet and shower basic but perfectly acceptable , all clean. we couldn't find any public footpaths nearby , so no where to exercise the dogs off the lead , about a mile walk along a pathless busy road to the local village , small post office selling basics , 2 pubs but they don't open in the day . a nice site but not for us and our dogs .

summer 2016
Really tranquil site with warm welcome. All facilities excellent, especially beautifully kept lawned area for the site. Would definitely consider returning, and that's not something we usually do!

Convenient and Peaceful
A lovely, level, well-tended site easily accessed from the M5. We used it as a one-night stopover because of its closeness to the motorway. We received a very friendly welcome from Mr & Mrs Petheram. The price we paid was the minimum quoted in last year's Sites Directory. A shower cost an extra 50p (payable by honesty box) and was well worth it.
lovely, peaceful site
Just spent a great week at this site. Lovely welcome from the owners who keep the site immaculate. No groundsheets allowed but not a problem. Nice, peaceful site and within easy reach of coast and countryside. Our first time in Somerset, loved it and will definitely return.

Good Location, Great Site, Easy Access
This site is near to the M5 junction but you cannot hear the traffic. The last 1/4mile is a single track road with a dyke on one side and no passing places luckily its very quiet. Once you arrive at the site which is a small field, you enter through a farm gate. There are no access issues, I took my twin axle in and out without bother.
The site itself is well kept, grass mown regularly. Waste water is dumped in the dykes surrounding the field. The toilet empty point is under cover which is a nice touch. There is a single toilet and separate shower which costs 50p via honesty box.
Just about everything is recycled including food waste, and all bins are emptied daily.
The owner is really friendly and often has for sale home grown produce.
There is a pub on the main road Fox and Hounds which is a 30minute walk away which serves good food and is dog friendly. There is a petrol station next door to it as well.
The site is centrally located and there are loads of places to go to a short drive away. You do really need your own transport though.
Burnham on sea is a short drive away where there is a cinema and supermarkets. If visiting the town park at morrisons pay and display. The town itself does not allow dogs onto the beaches anywhere.
If in the area, I would recommend visiting Brean Down, you can park on the beach (watch the tide times) for £3 all day, its a huge beach and dogs can run freely. There is a National Trust office/shop/cafe there as well.
Western Supermare also has dog friendly beaches, the south car park is on the beach and the north carpark not far from it.
Cheddar gorge, wells, bath are short drives away and exmoor is about an hours drive as well.
Cheddar gorge allows dogs inside the caves and on the cliff top (jacobs ladder) walk. I would do this in reverse though, the exit is just behind the lion tearooms up a lane. If you do it in reverse you avoid the £5pp entry fee, and it is still clearly signposted.
