Tucked away on a quiet Somerset lane at the foot of the Mendip Hills, The Hemingway's Field is a fully private, fully fenced paddock available for exclusive hire — meaning the whole space is yours and yours alone. Wake up to birdsong with Bleadon Hill as your backdrop. Take the dogs straight out from the gate, the field is completely enclosed and secure. Watch the stars from a Somerset sky with almost no light pollution. Then head out in the morning to the beach at Weston-super-Mare (4 miles), up to Crook Peak for a ridge walk (3 miles), through Cheddar Gorge, or along the traffic-free Strawberry Line trail. Easy access for large caravans and vehicles. The gate has fit 7m caravans through it, but we have kept it at 6.5m (as it was a slight squeeze). Happy to talk about removing the gate for bigger vehicles. Water is available on site via a hosepipe. Please note that there are no toilet facilities, so guests need to be self-contained. This is a back-to-basics outdoor experience with one important luxury: privacy. No shared facilities. No campsite neighbours. No noise. Just your family or your group and five acres of quiet Somerset countryside. The field sits alongside two neighbouring paddocks occasionally used by local farmers, you may spot a friendly face or two, and sometimes a horse or two as well. If any animals are in residence during your stay, we'll give you a heads-up in advance. Guests are also welcome to explore our acre of woodland, which connects to the top paddocks, a lovely spot for an early morning wander and some cool exploring. Please also note: Grass is cut and grazed frequently; the photos here are after a while without, so the condition will be much better when the field is booked out. Nearby: Weston-super-Mare beach (4 miles) · Crook Peak & Mendip Hills AONB (3 miles) · Cheddar Gorge (12 miles) · Wookey Hole Caves (14 miles) · Wells Cathedral City (16 miles) · Bristol (18 miles)The whole field is yours for the night, no shared facilities, no other guests, just your group and the Somerset countryside. Hemingway's Field is a fully enclosed, privately fenced paddock with wide gate access. Water is available on site via a hosepipe. There are no toilet facilities, so please come self-contained. Dogs are very welcome and can roam freely once inside the gate. The field connects to our acre of private woodland via the top paddocks, which guests are welcome to explore. The neighbouring paddocks are occasionally used by local farmers and horses, you'll be pre-warned of any animals in residence. It's a simple, private, peaceful setup, keeping it wild with consent - exactly what it's meant to be!
