We are a family run farm situated in the beautiful Frome valley. The farm has a range of interests from the traditional Jersey milking cows to a community of workshops used by local craftsmen. The cafe serves cream teas from Easter to the end of September and pizzas are sold in evenings during the summer months.
Ours is a small family run camp site with the River Frome on one side, next to the medieval buildings of Stowford Farm. The river is suitable for fishing, boating, swimming and paddling. Historic Bradford-on-Avon is only a 5 minute drive and the City of Bath 15 minutes.

Taunton, England · 12 units · Tents, Motorhomes
As you'd expect from a site with such a name, there's a whole lot of space in which to relax and explore at 5 Acres, a large grassy site in the Somerset Levels.
Kids and dogs are both welcome on site here, and there's plenty of scope for them to run about and play games safely away from barbecues and campfires (which are also permitted to keep you warm and fed in the evenings). Facilities on site include firepits, a toilet and shower block and outdoor sinks with mains water.
We no longer sell logs. Nearest supplier is Knight Bros Garage.
Dogs must be kept on leads at all time. We class ourselves as a quite site so no amplified music.
The premier pitch is fully enclosed so dogs can be let off the lead. There is a maximum of six people allowed on this pitch at any one time. Visitors are allowed as long as the total number of people doesn't exceed six and they are chargeable at the overnight rate and must leave by 18:00 - Sorry, had the envelope pushed a bit!
Mains hook ups are 6Amp max rated.
Pitches are approximately 16m x 16m. The flag, firepit and pitch number line up in the centre of your pitch.
The surrounding Somerset Levels aren’t just out in the sticks – they also produce them. Willow cane has been cultivated the traditional way in this part of the county for hundreds of years and can be seen growing within a mile of 5 Acres. The Levels are also a wildlife haven, making them an all-round top choice for country walks along the many trails nearby.
And while this may be a rural retreat, it's also one that's easy to get to as it's just off the A378 (no winding country lanes to negotiate for this one…) Taunton town centre, with its wide range of shops and supermarkets, is a 15-minute drive away. The closest pub and coffee shop are five minutes away by road.

Small dog-friendly site on the banks of the river Severn
Adjacent to the Severn Way and half an hour’s walk from the canal
Wildlife haven within walking distance of pubs and Frampton on Severn
Craving a peaceful time filled with wildlife watching, long walks and relaxing by the water? On the banks of the River Severn, Baldwin’s Brook Glamping in Gloucestershire fits the bill.
This small site is a wildlife haven adjacent to the Severn Way, a long-distance trail which traces the river downstream. Birdwatching prospects are excellent here, and there’s plenty of peace if you’d rather sit and relax by a firepit or check out the stunning views and sunsets. The site is part of a working family farm with lots of livestock.
From the farm, it’s a 45-minute walk to Frampton on Severn, which is home to the longest village green in England and the lively Frampton Country Fair (think funfair… and 400 stalls full of good stuff). Baldwin’s Brook Glamping is also half an hour’s walk away from the Cotswold Canal Trust Visitor Centre by The Gloucester and Sharpness Canal if you’d like to grab a spot on a boat trip or sip a coffee by the canal.
When you'd rather have a chilled beer, two pubs are within half a mile of the site (only 10 minutes’ walk away). Strike up a conversation with a local about the next Severn Bore, the huge tidal wave which races for 25 miles from Awre to Gloucester down the estuary just a handful of times per year.

We had a great stay. The location was perfect for a relaxing weekend, being able to buy some awesome ciders on site at the brewery taproom and then drink them while enjoying beautiful views of the countryside. Absolutely sure we’ll be back. Thanks Laura and her lovely family!

So glad we found this site. The gravel pitches are spacious and level, have awesome views of the surrounding mountains and have nearby fields/footpaths for the dog. 🐶 (Always helps when there’s a pub at the end of the walk too!)
We just managed to catch the cider shop/bar when we arrived on a Saturday afternoon, so it was nice to have a couple of homemade Ty Gwyn ciders in the sunshine.
The rustic barn on the campsite is perfect for rainy days when you want to have the atmosphere of being outside, but the comfort and cover of being under a roof.
There are ample toilets/showers for the size of the site and a washing up sink with a hell of a view!
We’d love to come back and try one of the rustic apartments too in the future, they look great. Thanks for the stay 👏

The site was very peaceful and lovely sunsets over the river. Only point of note was the Severn Way isn't accessible from the site, but a 5-10 min walk in either direction along a country road which can get narrow if you have a dog, but a pub at both points makes a nice destination.

Great location for walking The Severn Way and the Sharpness canal. Great for dogs. Quiet night’s sleep.
Pitch was generous size with drinking water, Elsan and grey waste. Rubbish and recycling handy.
Overhanging tree made me nervous in the high winds in pitch 1. Grass could do with a path cutting around the outside of the field for early and late dog walking but nice to have a field and would be nice to see some left uncut.
Owner very friendly and helpful.
Personally I would have liked to have closed the gates for extra security but the gates were new so hopefully this is something for the future.
We will be back!!

The site is very peaceful on the banks of the Severn within walking distance of two good pubs that do food. The site is well maintained with easy hookups for our camper and plenty of space between pitches. Picturesque Saul junction is five minutes drive with lots of narrow boats and a decent cafe.

The Cider Site is a small family run camping site, which made it feel very intimate and homely. The views are great and you feel relaxed and part of nature. We stayed right at the end of the season (the last weekend of October), so it was quiet and the Cider Bar was closed.....but we'll be back another time to sample the home made Cider :). The facilities are good - warm shower, towel rail, toilet. This site is on the border of Hereford and Abergavenny, so perfectly placed to explore either, which we did! Great location! Great find! :)

Wow !! What an amazing place this is.. A real gem of a find.
Stayed for only one night in our campervan as we are getting used to our new VW camper and this is less than 1hr from Cardiff where we live. But we could stay here for days ...
The booking process was excellent (via Hipcamp) and the communication with the host (Laura) was excellent.
Upon arrival we were met by Laura and given free range to look around the grounds, Glamping and cider shop. So lovely, welcoming and friendly.
Such a lovely welcome. Loved the dogs also, especially scrumpy (great name for a cider farm dog)
Parked the camper up with stunning views and perfect facilities. Bottle of wine and a bbq under the stars. Perfect.
This place is truely wonderful and we'll definitely be back with friends, and recommend it to everyone.
Love, love & love it.

Where do we start.. 🤔.. we are here for 4 nights. .. If you want peace come here… if you want amazing views.. come here.. if you want to walk come here if you want to chill come here.. and of course if you want to try scrumptious cider definitely come here!! Note open Wednesday to Sunday but you can buy from Laura on the days they are closed if you ask. Laura is so helpful and welcoming.and has always been on hand if needed. A busy bee with her lovely family, cider farm and 2 holiday cottages but always has time for her customers. The site is for 4 van pitches and each offer a hard standing. (Stones)Little shade so you would need your own awning but we have had a good breeze also. Clean facilities and a washing up area on site, with water and a grey water combined chemical disposal point.
One pitch with a grass pitch for a caravan/motorhome and awning. Pubs and restaurants close by with walks from the site and a walk to buy ice cream 😃. Just book it and enjoy 😃👍 Highly recommended if you hadn’t noticed 😃

Such an amazing spot, peaceful and secluded with great walks nearby. The pitches are well thought out and maintained with nice facilities. Laura couldn’t have been more accommodating and welcoming, super responsive and helpful to ensure everything for our stay was perfect. The views from our pitch were just beautiful and it was so peaceful on the farm. The cider shop was also a great bonus! We are looking forward to returning again in future to do some more exploring of the nearby Brecon Beacons.

When to go
Summer (June through August) is the best time to get on the water, and events and festivals are often held along the riverfronts in Bath and Bristol. Boat tours and cruises typically run from mid-March to mid-October, although winter visits are still possible for private groups. Many campsites stay open year-round, but be sure to check for seasonal closures.
Know before you go
- The River Avon (or Bristol Avon) rises in South Gloucestershire and flows through Wiltshire, Bath, and Bristol, before connecting to the Kennet and Avon Canal and the Kennet Navigation.
- Sightseeing cruises or multi-day boat cruises along the River Avon are possible from Bath and Bristol.
- Most campsites in South West England require advance booking, and you may need to pay the full amount before arrival.
