Very soft ground in winter limited hard standing

We arrived in our motorhome to a nice welcoming sign directing us to the field. There was limited hard standing by the entrance and as we tried to manoeuvre to find a level spot we got bogged down in the mud. This meant we had to be towed out, interestingly somebody else was towed out earlier in the day, but no signs were up nor any areas roped off. Fortunately there was space in the daughter’s adjoing site where they permitted us to stay. So while the site is advertised as being open all year hard standing is limited and the field itself is too soft to drive on. Other than that facilities and location are excellent. Stayed 10 November.

Lovely site except for one thing.

We arrived and sited our two vans on the far side of the field, put up the awnings and noticed that the field had been cut but the cuttings had not been collected, consequently all the cuttings were in the car, awning and van. It became a slushy green mire when it rained and whilst it didnt ruin our stay it did curtail it a bit. Apart from that the site is very peaceful and has lovely settings, also very close to Weston Super Mare, Wells, Taunton, and the Yeovilton museum very interesting. Great eating places close by, The Black Swan at Langport is a great place for food a great menu and not overpriced. All in all a we had a very nice time here but for the cuttings.

A Haven of Tranquiliity

We visited this site for three nights last week and must say that it is one of the best CLs that we have ever stayed on, and only about an hour from home too. There was a friendly greeting on arrival and an explanation of where everything was. It's a very spacious site with grass that would put many peoples lawns to shame! The power hook ups are well spaced around the perimeter and it is not difficult to pitch up and find a good view across the levels. The shower and toilet are first rate and were always clean, and the recycling bins are clearly marked and allow most things to be recycled. Even food waste can go into the adjacent compost bin too, or be fed to the hens. The information cabin is full of useful ideas and there are even laminated maps of the local area for walks. The local Spar shop is about 10 minutes walk (max) and weekdays opens from 0700, and 0800 on Saturday. It is even open on Sundays. The local Devonshire Arms serves nice food, welcomes dogs and has nice sitting out areas. There is so much to see and do in the surrounding area that you could spend a whole holiday there and not get bored. We cannot believe that we have missed out on the "real" Somerset for so long after living just across the border since the mid 1970's.

Our First

This was the first site we have used since picking up our motor home and we were not disappointed and hope to return later in the year. It is very peaceful and the owner welcoming. The field was well maintained as were the toilet and shower. Excellent for dog walking and a good pub/restaurant a few minutes away.

Perfect peace

A delightful, peaceful site, very well kept with plenty of space. Great dog walks and places to visit. Village shop and pub only a short walk away. Well worth a stay, we will be back for another tranquil break.

regular visitor

This is a brilliant site. Beautiful views, close to village shop and church. Very central for many National Trust houses and gardens. Worth staying for at least a week. We have just had 2 weeks there, found plenty to do. The added shower and toilet block are an advantage. The cabin has all the information you will need. The owner and family are very helpful, nothing too much trouble.

Return visit

We have stayed on this site several times , while visiting relatives. It has a useful hard standing pitch for our motorhome, though a little awkward to negotiate into it. Long Sutton is a lovely village with the excellent Devonshire Arms, within walking distance. There is also a very useful little village shop. It is within easy reach of many interesting places. We will be back

Perfect CL

Firstly, we cannot understand why this has not been reviewed since 2013. Anyway, it's a real 1.5 acres unlike some that pretend to be an acre and end up being a postage stamp. It's quiet, lots of space, there's recycling, the grass is cut short on a regular basis and it's perfectly located to visit many places of interest including several National Trust. Access is easy but look out for the signs for the golf club rather than the B road as these either don't exist or are well hidden in true Somerset fashion. Also, when you arrive at the farm don't get spooked by the sign for The Camping & Caravan Club right next to the Caravan Club sign. Just keep going on 100m and the CC site is to the left and the CCC site is straight on......the family have both! We were here for a week in peak season and had it mostly to ourselves.

Excellent CL

We stayed here for the first time in September 2013. We agree with the earlier reviews, we hope to re-visit next year. For eating out, try The Limekiln just a short distance eastward on the A372.
