Description
Pitches: 4
Opening Dates: March To November
Ball Hill Farm's a lovely, unspoilt and ancient cider farm overlooking West Sedgmoor in Somerset.
The farmhouse itself comprises the original 18th Century dwelling, converted barn and "back-house" - old oak beams, ancient blue lias walls, covered inside with lime plaster
Camping is directly up the hill-side in the nineteenth century cider orchard. All its trees are listed, many clustered with mistletoe,the whole a haven for wildlife.
We offer "rough" camping - including self-catering accommodation in a gypsy bowtop caravan.
We restrict our pitches to four so you get privacy & peace and the feeling of being really out under the stars & away from the bustle of everyday life.
Camping's great here - amazing views and the lightest footprint possible:
cold water from the farm supply(no showers); compost toilet; open fire pit with small supply of wood; free parking by the farm; & a walk up the orchard to the pitches. It's a steep climb but worth it for the views you get here.
Prices:
Prices per tent pitch, per person including children, from £4 per night.
Price for gypsy bowtop from £35 per night for the caravan which sleeps up to 2 adults + 2 small children.
