 We've just returned from 3 nights at Ashe Farm, which was our first-ever camping trip. I really loved this place. The owners are amazingly friendly and helpful and at £6 per night per adult, it's really good value. We camped in the lower field, which was nice and quiet. It has two toilets (very clean) and a brand-new play area for the children which they loved. There is electric hook ups in both fields and drinking water taps too.
The weather was pretty terrible on our first night, but the field did not become waterlogged.
You can bring dogs with you, so if you are not a dog-lover this might not be ideal. There's also no campfires permitted, but you can have BBQs.
I really recommend this campsite and we will go back again.

Found this site by chance, but so pleased we did!
Stayed for 5 nights and wished it could have been longer.
Good clean facilities with lots of open space.
Shower block: free showers, constant water pressure, did not go cold; spotlessly clean. A little unsure if 3 showers (in each mens and ladies) would be enough if the site was full. However, did not cause us a problem this time.
Very impressed with the family / disabled shower wet room.
Site facilities: spacious, clean, well kept and pitch marked up with our name when we arrived. Owner - very friendly. Sarah was extremely helpful and accommodating when we changed pitch and when we stayed longer than expected.
Two basic play areas for youngsters - but to be honest, there is so much room available on the site, these areas were not overly used really.
The site is secure, with the gate closing at 10pm for caravan access. There is still access for cars. It was not a noisy site by any means.
Local facilities: pub within walking distance, which happened to have a Beer and Cider festival on when we stayed. Garage with a small grocery section only 5 minutes away.
Literally 2. 5 miles off the M5, near Taunton.
We really can't say enough good things about this site - made us feel welcome and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would DEFINITELY be going back there - this time with friends and family. Would highly recommend a visit.

2nd time for a one night stopover. Great site. Owners very helpful and friendly. Booked a pitch. Name on chalkboard. Facilities, spotless. Great for M5 and A303. Taunton not too far. Great carvery pub 5 min drive away. Sainsbury's and McDonalds just the other side of the M5. Going to book again for next year.

The annual Bank Holiday camping for our group of eleven (the Prices, the O'learys and the Thompsons). Another campsite to try. Ashe Farm informal and friendly.
We arrived on the Friday evening to find our plot in the second field nicely pointed out by a metal sign with our surname and arrival date, (nice touch).
The main shower block was clean and tidy at all times, there were also two unisex toilets in the second field, again clean and tidy. A light bulb had blown in one toilet we mentioned this and straight away someone was there to fix it-EXCELLENT.
The pitches are flat and a great size also the majority have electric, amazingly really well priced. Child friendly with plenty of open space for games and a small play park.
Just up the road is Nags Head, public house this does a good Sunday Carvery with a children's play area they also welcome well behaved dogs in the bar.
Looking forward to going back.

Stayed here for one night as a stopover on the way to Cornwall, it's ideally situated for this, as it's only a couple of miles from junction 25 of the M5. Access to the site from the M5 involves having to turn right accross a dual carriageway though, which isn't ideal, especially if you're towing a caravan. If you want to avoid the right turn, then I believe its about a 15 or so mile round trip down to the next roundabout, in order to approach from the opposite carriageway instead.
It's a really pleasant site though, informally run, with each plot marked by a small blackboard telling you if and when it's occupied. You just find yourself a vacant plot and the owner comes round between 9-10am in the morning to collect your site fees (if you need to leave before that time, then this can also be arranged).
The toilet/shower block is clean and modern and there's also a couple of small play areas to amuse the kids too. The local pub is a ten minute walk away from the site, although this is down a country lane with no footpath. The pub itself is worth a visit though, with a nice beer garden and big play area for the kids.

We stayed on this lovely site for one night on the way down to Cornwall. The reception is informal to say the least and a great respite from hours in the car with 2 young children.
The site is nicely laid out and immaculate. There is a play area and also an old tractor for the kids to climb all over. The toilet facilities although small would put bigger sites to shame, they were immaculate and also warm.
The camping field seemed well sized and there was a decent spacing between the units.
We would definitely use the site again as a stop over and probably in the future when the kids are a bit bigger if we are coming to this part of the country.
All considered, a good £16 for a night's accommodation.

Just returned from 7 nights here. S very pleasant stay indeed. Sarah made us welcome and our pitch was marked for us in the 1st field. Plenty room and adequate facilities and very clean and tidy. Although dogs are welcome, there is no dog run area, but plenty of walks from the site are available. One negative point. No dog poop bins!. Nags Head pub 10 min walk but be prepared to wait for meals. 45 mins for two burgers!. Would we stay again. CERTAINLY.

My husband and I stayed at Ashe Farm as a stop over for one night on our way to Cornwall. What a lovely site would of loved to have stayed longer. The site is so spacious with plenty of room in between pitches. Facilities are excellent there is 4 ladies toilets and 3 showers, 2 men's toilets and 3 showers, there is also a separate area with hairdryer and mirror. There is an out side pot washing area, washing machine, tumble dryer, iron and ironing board.
A information room with lots of info about the surrounding area. It cost us £14 for the night which we thought was excellent value for money. Would highly recommend this site.

This could be the perfect campsite with a little more investment and care. We stayed for 6 nights and enjoyed our visit. The dog walking was first class the site is very relaxed and the shower block was clean & tidy. We never had to wait for a shower or loos. The grey waste is back of the toilet block. The site is quite and is split into two fields, we were in the first field in pitch 37. There is a pub within a 10 minute walk which we did not use. Would we use again yes we would for a shorter stay when traveling long distances.

Our third visit to this site and every bit as delightful as the previous two, the only difference being that this time we were able to stay a little longer - 5 nights. This is such a lovely, laid back family run concern, which I'll be happy to take my family to again and again. Ashe Farm really is one of our very favourite sites.
As I've stated in my previous review, facilities on this site are very well maintained and more than adequate for the numbers of visitors even during peak season. It is well situated for exploring the Somerset coast, Exmoor and so on. The site has plenty of space for kids to run around and a small play park. Pitches are generous in size, with almost all offering electricity. There's a good ale house at the end of the lane (well within staggering distance) and it's very convenient for Taunton and the M5. Prices are very reasonable and staff are accommodating and friendly. The goats, chickens and sheep are very friendly too.

This has to be the most relaxed and welcoming caravan site we have had the pleasure to be at and we have clocked up a few! From the very start of the stay it had a relaxed feel which was not only from the owners but other holiday makers which makes a difference especially if you are staying for 5 nights as we did.
There were two areas to the caravan site one which had a through road and the other was more secluded and ideal if you were with a group of friends or family. We stayed on the first bit which was right next to the toilet and shower block which was ideal as we have a 4 year old! Toilets clean and showers hot with plenty of space for washing up. There was also a laundry facility and a place to dry your clothes.
The area itself is beautiful with an abundance of national trust sites if you like that kind of thing which thankfully we do and managed 3 in a day!
Fabulous pub with kids play area 5 minutes walking distance which sells extremely nice Cider which makes the walk home all the more interesting!
This was also the best value for money venue we have stayed at and will definitely be going back, could not praise it enough. Thanks for a fabulous holiday and being part of making happy memories.

Just got back from a fabulous stay at this lovely site. We had a great flat pitch with loads of open space for kiddies to run around and play. Great local views. The children loved the goats at the farm. The facilities were always kept clean with the provision of a hairdryer too. We found this site a fabulous base for exploring the south west. Really reasonable priced too, we were most impressed. We weren't penalised because of the size of our tent either. I would definitely recommend this site.

Brilliant site, we arrived and went to reception from where we were taken to our pitch, we were in the lower of the 2 camping fields there was a board out with our name on but were told if we didn't like the pitch we could go anywhere else in the field we wanted, we stayed in the pitch (although we think we should have moved in hindsight due to being under a cherry tree and being overrun with ants). The lower field has 2 toilets, a play area and bins. The upper field has the shower/laundry block with (in the ladies) 3 shower and 4 toilet cubicles plus a hairdryer cubicle all lovely and clean. We were only there the weekend so we didn't need the laundry area. There was also an information room with leaflets on things to do in the surrounding area and a small freezer. We didn't go to the pub a 5 minute walk away but there are supermarkets and Taunton town centre a 5-10 minute drive away.
All in all the site was lovely, although road noise was all night and it is just down the road from an RSPCA rescue centre at which we assume the dogs get fed at 0600 and 2200 as this was the time they were going nuts every day.
We would recommend this site and will be using it the next time we visit family in the area.

What a lovely friendly site.
We stayed on this site for 9 nights so we could visit Somerset.
I liked the fact that when we arrived you were allowed to have a look around the site pick your pitch. The owner who is very friendly and helpful was there to welcome us and show us around and suggested pitches for us. You had plenty of room on your pitch, there was also picnic benches available to use. The toilets and showers were always clean. There was also a free hairdryer. There was also a nice small laundry room, which we used, it was two pound for the washer and two pound for dryer.
There was some swings and a sandpit for the kids to use. There was plenty of room for the kids to play and our two lads enjoyed playing ball games and it was nice that there wasn't a lot of rules.
The owners were a lovely couple and were very helpful and friendly and nothing seemed to much trouble. My husband didn't bring enough of his tablets he is supposed to take, typical man, we arranged for my mum to send him some, unfortunately they didn't arrive in time and Sarah kindly sent them on to us.
There is a pub about a quarter of mile away, the food is very good, in fact we visited three times whilst staying on this site. Its well worth a visit.
Its a shame this site is so far from us as if it was close we would definitely use it for our local weekend trips.
We would definitely recommend this site, one of the best we have stayed on.

What a fantastic site!
I booked this site after finding it on this website and reading the great reviews.
We arrived and had a reserved pitch in the 2nd field. It was a corner plot with trees behind and to the side of it. The pitches are very spacious with ample of room for our tent, an area for the the stove and washing up and our car.
Sarah came and collected rents every morning and took time to talk to each family and check everything was ok.
There are 2 toilets in the 2nd field and they were always clean and stocked with loo paper and soap. The shower block and more toilets are in the first field, we never had to queue for a shower.
We also used the washing machine and tumble drier, we purchased tokens. Both £2 each. Unfortunately the washing machine didn't have a very good spin cycle on it and the clothes came out very damp and the drier couldn't get them fully dry.
The camp site was very quiet, almost too quiet. We have 1 child and usually on camp sites she makes lots of friends but there really was very few other people about.
The children's play area is basic.
As others have mentioned there is a RSPCA centre down the road and I heard the dogs howling and barking on several occasions day and night but it didn't stop me from sleeping.
There is a pub 5 minutes walk up the road - The Nags Head, it has a great play area and outdoor seating and is also lovely inside, we had a meal there and it was a great choice of menu all well priced and the food was delicious.
On the day we packed up, Sarah came and spoke to us and checked everything was ok and wished us well. She is a very friendly lady.
All in all this is a great place to stay and if I were heading back to Somerset I would return to this camp site.
