 Visited this site as an overnight stop on the way to Plymouth for ferry. Party included 6 adults with three caravans. A lovely site, lots of room and very clean. More or less straight off motorway. The pub at the beginning of the lane serves good food and real ale, easy walking distance from site.
The site was easy to book by telephone and owners very pleasant. They reserved 3 hardstandings for us, without being asked just in case the site got busy. As it happened we didn't use them and we pitched on the grass. The owner collected rent at 09.00 next morning. We also had a problem with our leisure battery but found a caravan sales about a mile away and they were very helpful.
An added bonus with the site was lots of cherry trees and they were in fruit. Yummy! Seemed a safe haven for kids to play and run around. Fresh air and sunshine, just the tonic. We will definitely be visiting again.

Lovely site although we only stayed 1 night on the way to Swanage and didn't arrive until after sunset. Just enough light to pitch with headlamp.
Toilets and facilities very clean. Paid as we left the site in the morning and the lady I spoke to was very pleasant.
I had previously been in contact with the site owner via email to check the arrival and payment arrangements. The response I got was excellent. In fact I am considering staying at the site for a few days next year as a base to see the surrounding area.
I would highly recommend this site to anyone.

We stayed here for 12 nights with a large tent, 2 adults and 2 children aged 6 and 10. We chose the site as the fees were very reasonable - we paid £14 per night (without electricity) and because of the good location, near to Taunton. Also, there is a very nice pub - The Nag's Head - just a 5 min walk away. They serve great local beer and lovely food.
We pitched at the far end of the second field. The main advantage to this was loads of space for the children to run around in. There was also a small playground in the middle of this field with 2 swings and a sandpit. This field was never as busy as the other one. The disadvantages were a very long walk to the only toilet block, at the entrance to the site in the 1st field and there were very noisy dogs barking and howling at night. Apparently these belonged to the local hunt. However, after a few nights we didn't hear them - probably got used to the sound! Also, a lot of people who regularly use the site see this field as a dog walking area and don't always pick up after their dogs. There is a designated dog walking area on the site!
The toilets were clean, 4 in each block with 3 showers and a curtained sink. The hot water was a bit erratic but in our first week there were teenage girls using up all the hot water! There is also a small playground outside with swings, a tyre climbing frame and an old tractor to play on.
There is a laundry room, an information room with leaflets and a freezer which is free for freezing ice packs and 2 sinks for washing up.
The children loved it here. We made friends with lots of dogs and the 2 goats and the chickens. The site owners were very friendly, coming every morning to collect the money but you can pay in advance if you want to.
The site was very relaxed and I would definitely recommend it. However, don't take tennis rackets as there isn't a tennis court (the website says there is).

Hosting a group camping trip, the site was a great place to stay. Lots of room and very easy to get to the Taunton area. We'll be back this year with a bigger group as the trip was a success due to the campsite.
The payment method works very well, as we had an unknown number of people attending. Just £5 a night. The lady comes round to collect money in the morning.
We cannot wait to come back in the summer.

A very nice and quiet site. New toilet block with laundry. Very clean. No shop but Taunton not far away.
Plenty of space and site owner is genuinely interested in making his clients stay as pleasant as possible.
Been here several times and well recommended.

This site was lovely. Split into upper and lower fields and we were placed on the lower field as we booked late and it was running into the Bank Holiday. Ideal. It was peaceful, laid back and very spacious. The toilet blocks were clean, a bit of grass on floor at times but a mop and bucket left to clean up if you felt the need! There were two small play areas for children, freezers for ice packs, clean washing-up area, dog walk and plenty of peace and quiet! Just turned up and pitched and the owner wandered around the following morning with her grand-daughter to collect what was owed (which was very reasonable.)
There was a pub a short walk down a country lane which served wonderful food and a garage which sold papers, milk etc. Close by. Close to main roads to access all tourist areas. We stayed five nights and had a wonderful time. Only down side was that there was a farm which had hunting dogs close by and they could bark at times but you did get used to it as it was only a distant noise!

Just stayed here for 5 nights over the Easter period, good site close to the M5 motorway, as others have said turn up and pitch, the lady arrives between 9 & 10am to collect the fees, Adults £4.50 Children £1.50 EHU £1.50 and awnings £1.
The site has two large fields and around 10 hard standings, the lower field is huge, with small play areas in each. The only toilet block is at the top of the 1st field, its along walk up hill if sited at the lower field. The fields are on a hill and not many of the pitches are level.
Nice walks around the farm through fields and woodlands, and lots of rabbits etc. Running around.

Just off the M5 - Ashe Farm is cheap and cheerful for an overnight stop as you venture further into the South West or a good base for Somerset discovery.We stayed for a night - you just simply drive on and pay the next day - no booking in here - and you have a choice of a smaller field just inside the gates or a HUGE field at the lower part of the farm.Facilities were nice and clean and the park was tidy and litter free. Seems there are a few regular/statics on site - and one tent seemed to have been there for a long time as someone had mown the grass around it!There is a pub nearby but NO shop on site - though Taunton is a short hop away by road with a good shopping area - follow the car park signs and you can park behind the high street. Supermarkets are outside the town - but remember your road numbers and a few landmarks else you will find yourself heading for the M5 or driving in circles.We have visited a few times now - Enjoy your stay.
