In the gorgeous south Somerset countryside, nestled in 3 and a half acres of beautiful, mature and landscaped grounds, is the multi award-winning and very highly rated Long Hazel Park; an adults only touring park with spacious grounds, very helpful and friendly owners, a firmly eco friendly attitude (they have planted over 2000 trees in the last 24 years and that’s just the tip of the iceberg) and welcoming all modes of camping; from tents to the very largest of RV’s. While everyone else was on hold in lockdown, the owners here were busy installing 11 brand new, fully serviced touring pitches for the 2021 season, which are now complete and include electric hook-up, a water tap and water drainage on each very spacious pitch. All of the hardstanding pitches are large and level, and there is a pretty grass area at the centre of the site for tents. There are picnic benches dotted about, bird feeders, wild flowers and most all, a sense of peace and tranquility.
Everything you can possibly think of has already been thought of here. There is an excellent (currently online) reception with all you need to know about using the wifi, local dog walks in the area, things to see and do, and - most excitingly - a lot of information about all the delicious food and meals on offer here. There is a local bakery delivery for bread, morning rolls and pastries, a Friday evening woodfired pizza van and possibly best of all, the excellent nearby pub - The Mildmay Arms - also delivers takeaway food in the evenings and Sunday lunchtimes. So there is no need to cook if you don’t fancy it! And if you don’t have your own caravan or tent, never fear, there are two absolutely lovely holiday lodges, fully equipped with everything you need for a relaxing break. Blackforest Lodge is also adapted for mobility impaired guests - one of the only fully wheelchair accessible holiday rentals in Somerset. Both the lodges have convenient parking directly outside and a lovely decked area for al fresco meals.
Facilities are excellent and spotlessly clean. The newly renovated and eco-friendly shower block sitting conveniently in the centre of the park, has hot showers, heating, hairdryers and shaver points and is regularly checked and cleaned. The facilities also include a well thought out accessible bathroom suite for disabled visitors. In this block there is also a dishwashing station and a chemical disposal point.
The location of Long Hazel Park is absolutely perfect for exploring all of Somerset and Dorset’s most stunning countryside; the Vale of Camelot, Blackmore Vale, Dorset Downs and the glorious Mendip Hills where you can explore the Wookey Hole Caves and Cheddar Gorge - among many other sights. There are countless excellent walking routes that you can access directly from the park, including the Sparkfood Woodlands, Millennial Copse, The Leland trail and The Cadbury Hill, where you can hike around the Bronze and Iron age hillfort associated with King Arthus legendary court at Camelot. Glastonbury is half an hour away and Long Hazel Park is a great place to base yourself if you are attending the legendary music festival, and it is also also an excellent place to stay if you are thinking of booking the annual Royal Navy International Air Day at Yeovilton.
