About The Paddocks Glamping
The Paddocks Glamping sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just ten minutes from Cheddar, offering four furnished dome bell tents with stunning countryside views. Each comes with comfortable beds, private decking, a BBQ and fire pit – perfect for settled evenings under the stars. The immaculate communal facilities include a well-equipped kitchen, showers and toilets that are kept spotless throughout.
This is an adults-only site with a genuinely peaceful atmosphere, often enlivened by live music and communal gatherings around the fire pit. The friendly hospitality adds warmth to what could otherwise feel remote. There's no WiFi, which some will see as a blessing and others a mild inconvenience, but it certainly encourages you to switch off and soak up the Somerset countryside properly.

What visitors say
We had a fantastic night here over the weekend! The location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful views and such a peaceful atmosphere. The private decking area with the BBQ and fire pit was perfect. The tent itself was spotless, beautifully presented, incredibly spacious, and very comfortable. One thing we particularly loved was the balance between privacy and community. While our pitch felt peaceful and tucked away, it was also lovely meeting and chatting with other campers in the shared kitchen area. A wonderful glamping experience—we'd definitely recommend it and would love to return in the future.

A really exceptional place to stay. The initial communication and friendly greeting, the immaculate facilities (the shower was better than my one at home), and a beautiful tent with a very comfortable bed and everything provided. Only a handful of tents and a stunning view makes it an incredibly peaceful and relaxing place to stay. We will definitely go back.

We spent a week here in what felt like a little corner of heaven and have every intention of going back again and again. The hospitality was second to none and it was incredibly comfortable, with everything you needed for a week of glamping. A short stroll to the village shop and local hostelry, a longer stroll to Cheddar with its Gorge, caves and many shops, cafes and eateries, Wells, Glastonbury, Clevedon and more are just a short drive away and there are lots of country walks to choose from. 10 out of 10!

We had an incredible stay at the paddocks. The view from the pod was absolutely amazing and they were really nicely decorated and had all the amenities we needed including bbq and fire pit, which went down a treat. The bed was super comfy and right next to the pod was a beautiful pond where we could sit and relax. Harry and Steph were really helpful and had lots of suggestions for stuff to do in the local area. Overall a great stay we will definitely be back
