We are a wild camping and dog friendly site, set amongst beautiful meadows. We have 10 pitches across 8 acres so there is plenty of room to spread out, relax, kick a ball around or walk the dog around our 20 acre land. We are lucky enough to have the surfing beaches of North Devon nearby, and Westward Ho! is a 20 minutes drive away. You'll find equipment hire and surf lessons and a sea pool filled by the tide. There are also some quirky theme parks for the kids in close proximity, including Milky Way and Big Sheep.

I found Qookey Farm Campsite by accident but liked the sound of not, being close to Wells and Glastonbury. It's quite a find. Each pitch is spacious, with its own power source and refuse collection point. Toilets are close by - the only downside? No shower facility. I'd recommend it to anyone..

Bill and Helen are so lovely and accommodating. A very ebullient and energetic couple. They rallied all the campers together on our last night to play volleyball as the site was closing for the season the next day. There’s a volleyball and badminton net in the middle of the field with rackets etc supplied if you just want a fun knock up. There pitch sizes are great are really generously spaced out. Loved the llamas and the fresh hen eggs that Helen left out for grabs one morning.! Couldn’t fault this place. We will be back.

A wonderful small site with all the facilities you need. Bill made us feel truly welcome. A short walk from the site into the woods and to the river, perfect for the dog to cool off and swim. Some evening noise from Sandy Balls but as explained in the site description. It was handy having those site facilities right next door. We’d definitely return.

It was great. The facilities are really good and the owners are friendly. I would stay again but not on pitch 2 as it's on a hill and our bed was a bit lopsided! The toilets should also just be unisex as I used the men's when it was free and got tutted at even though there was a queue for the women and no men when I went in and the toilets were just toilets not anything like a urinal or like a load of toilets. Just single toilets both exactly the same. Anyway, that's just a detail and overall we had a brilliant time thank you! Ruth

We had amazing stay at the campsite of Bill and Helen. Everything was very clean, spacious pitches and very lovely hosts. The campsite was very close to the entrance of The New Forest, which was easy to visit from the campsite. Our kids had a good time with the alpacas, the playground and just being able to run around.

A brilliant small camp site for families with generous pitches, a games area in the middle and a young childrens play area with slide The owner is very helpful and made us feel very welcome. Children are encouraged to help feed the chickens each morning. The guests at the site were welcoming, many being return campers who had used campsite for years. A lucky find for us as there are plenty of easy walks in all directions from the campsite. A short walk to the nearest inn for food and a drink.

Lovely farm campsite with an eco vibe. Perfect for a few days with small children - there's a lovely stream running around the edge of the campsite that you can paddle in and several swings nearby to enjoy. Also you can pet and feed several different farm animals. Lovely farm shop too. There's a good village pub a 10mins walk down the lane. My only feedback would be to extend the shop opening hours, having fresh milk for breakfast would have been ace!

Wide open campsite, loads of space so don’t feel crowded at all with some lovely views of the Mendip. Facilities were good. The site has a river running around it - which is great for kids (and adults) - it’s never too deep and lovely to refresh yourself in.

We loved how central this place is yet a very rural village feel, Wookey people were so friendly, the campsite was so peaceful, loved how laid back everything was! We had the BBQ Pack that we pre ordered, I loved that Sarah (the owner, just gave me directions on how to collect it from fridge. The big billy goat was very funny and the donkeys, lamas and pigs were so well looked after. We really liked the pub “the Ring o bells” about 10 mins walk away. Great walks, especially to the loan tree and around the village. We will definitely be back.

We set up our campsite to be a unique place where guests could be as close to nature as possible, while retaining some of the basic comforts of home. Think wildflower meadow with hot showers! We've gone for ultimate peace and tranquility, with a very limited number of pitches mown into the wildflowers with lots of space between. Our remote site is far from roads or light pollution, making for serene starry nights around the firepit. The camping meadow is bordered by woodlands, a small nature reserve, and the gardens of a stunning Tudor manor house, all of which you're free to explore. Nestled in a remote and picturesque corner of West Dorset, the campsite is within easy reach of some of the South West's most stunning spots, from world-famous fossil beaches to neolithic hill-forts.
