Cripps Farm Caravan Park

View prices & book Last booked one day ago 9.6 65 reviews

Family caravan park in the Somerset Levels, 10 minutes from the M5
A 15-minute drive to the coast; half an hour to Wookey Hole
Landscaped grounds with two fishing lakes and river fishing; spa

A rural Somerset stay without the need to navigate miles of rural Somerset roads? Pull your caravan off the M5 at Junction 22, drive for a mere 10 minutes and you’ll be going through the gates of Cripps Farm Caravan Park, ready to park up on spacious and fully serviced hardstanding pitches. A handy stopover point, then, but also a fine base for an extended break – the peaceful park is surrounded by the pretty countryside of the Somerset Levels, with plenty of scope for walks, cycling, canoeing, horse riding, golf and other outdoor activities nearby. Beaches are 15 minutes’ drive away, Bristol about 45 minutes, and there’s a good chance to grab bargains at the Clarks Village outlet park half an hour away. That said, in fact you don’t even have to exit the park to get your fix of rural activity: there’s a countryside walkway on site with wildlife to spot and seating areas where you can rest and take in the view. Or you might like to bring along your rods to spend some time at the two well-stocked fishing lakes or along the banks of the Cripps river, which runs past the edge of the site. This isn’t a noisy park packed with entertainments, but it’s one that’s got the facilities sorted: wifi, a launderette, a washing-up area and toilets/showers with accessible facilities are all on site. You’re welcome to bring along a barbecue (there’s a supermarket for supplies 10 minutes’ drive away in Highbridge) and there are a couple of pubs about a mile away if you fancy heading out. Cripps Farm Caravan Park is also home to a spa, where a range of packages and holistic therapies are available in a space designed for pure relaxation (book in advance).

Very well kept, lovely walk along the riverside

We were amazed by the books, dvds and jigsaws available for us to borrow, what a good idea

Early morning chill out with a cup of tea and a piece of toast.

Very peaceful quiet site by the river, facilities excellent and very clean.…

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (adults only, riverside)

Liked: We had a wonderful Christmas stay at Cripps Farm! Easy booking, all information at our fingertips about the site; clean, well looked after facilities and as a fabulous festive bonus we received a Christmas gift from Leah and Dave! We would thoroughly recommend this site and will be staying again when we next visit family in the area. Thank you Cripps Farm for making our first Christmas in our new caravan very special!

Liked: Site had lots of wildlife and was quiet. 30 mins to Wells for lights. Nice tap room 5 mins away.
Nice warm shower block and toilets. Every where really clean.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (adults only, riverside)

Liked: Great location with very good clean facilities. Plenty of hot water for showers. We were on a hardstanding with electric with only a few other campervans overlooking the river. Pitches level and well spaced out. Staff were very helpful. Site is very well maintained and we would stay here again.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (adults only, riverside)

Liked: Super pitch was fab. Toilets and other facilities were modern, clean and presented to a high standard. Spa was a lovely addition

Disliked: The pitches are rather close and not particularly secluded, couldn’t fit the car by the van once a porch awning was put up. HOWEVER the benefits FAR outweigh these niggles.

Will definitely be booking again

Liked: Really liked this site, we’ve literally stayed at hundreds of different campsites over the years and this one is top drawer. A lovely peaceful location, friendly and helpful owner, surrounded by rivers lakes and countryside. Pitches are fully serviced . Toilets are the best I’ve seen at any campsite. Only a 20 min cycle into Highbridge. A***

Local attractions

Cripps Farm makes a good base for all sorts of outings in the Somerset countryside: check out the geology of Cheddar Gorge (half an hour’s drive), delve underground at Wookey Hole (35 minutes) or walk up to Glastonbury Tor (35 minutes). To see some of the countryside in a more active way, chat with the folk at Wall Eden Adventure Activities (five minutes) to sort days of canoeing, kayaking, archery or axe-throwing. If you’ve got beach time on the mind, head west for time on the sand at Burnham-on-Sea (15 minutes), a stroll among the dunes at Brean (half an hour) or a potter along the pier in Weston-super-Mare (half an hour), followed by fish and chips on the beach. Bristol (45 minutes to the city centre) is worth a visit too: there are tons of places to eat and drink, and things like Bristol Zoo, M Shed and the SS Great Britain are all popular places with the kids. There’s some good shopping in the city’s indie shops too, or you can head to Clarks Village for discount bits at the outlet shops.
