Moorhouse Campsite

Opening Dates: March To November. Nestled between the ÔQuantock Hills, an area of outstanding natural beauty and the ÔJurrasic Coast, Moorhouse Campsite is a quiet, rural, family run, site. The area is surrounded by open farm land and far reaching views to the hills, with dog walks easily accessible directly from the farm. Pitches are carefully spaced out, level and well drained, with beautiful mature trees and hedges dividing each area. These give shade in the warmer months and shelter in the rain. We have a large tent field with electric hook ups and a landscaped BBQ communal area in the centre. There is a seperate paddock for family tents and those looking for a more private area of the campsite. We allow fires in this field using our fire pits and own locally sourced wood. For those looking for a bit of extra comfort, two glamping Pods are situated at the top of the tent field with seperate views to the ÔQuantocks. They are equipped to sleep up to 3 people with outdoor furniture and a BBQ. Both are lockable, with storage, lighting, microwave, kettle, small fridge and heating. Sorry no Pets. The farm is a working arable farm, with ÔMad Apple CiderÔ being produced in our barns. Children and adults will enjoy watching the free range chickens and peacock on their daily jaunt around the site. There are small petting animals for children and new for 2016, a wooden climbing area in the large tent field. Kilve beach is a 40 minute scenic walk away or a 5 minute drive. ÔThe Chanrty tea rooms, provide a lovely pit stop for a cream tea, before or after searching in the rock pool or finding some fossils. The ÔQuantock hills can be directly accessed down a private farm lane to the picturesque Holford Village. Wonderful historic walks, following in the footsteps of the poets, ÔWordsworth and ÔColeridge and picking up the ÔColeridge Way. Our site is popular with mountain bikers as we have some of the best natural trails in the country. There are two local pubs, both within walking distance. ÔThe Plough at Holford is a 12 minute walk which is great for a drink after a walk on the hills or a hearty evening meal. ÔThe Hood Arms in Kilve provides a scenic walk with views across the Bristol Channel to Wales. It has a family friendly beer garden and play area for the kids. The local ale is not to be missed and will help on the walk back to the campsite! Both pubs are dog friendly. Moorhouse is a small independent place to stay, ensconced by the beautiful countryside. One not to be missed!
