Camping in Frome
3 campsites, glamping sites and caravan parks

Frome itself has no campsite within the town, so the nearest genuine options lie in the villages just outside it, within a few miles of the centre, in the gentle farmland that separates Frome from Bath, Trowbridge and the western edge of Wiltshire. This is quiet, agricultural countryside rather than a tourist camping hotspot, and the sites that operate here tend to be small, family-run affairs rather than large holiday parks.
That suits Frome well. Visitors camping nearby are typically drawn by the town's market, festival and independent shopping scene rather than by campsite facilities as a destination in themselves, and the small farm sites in the surrounding villages of Woolverton and beyond offer a straightforward, well-kept base for exactly that kind of trip. Expect grass pitches, a shop selling produce from the farm itself, and a genuinely rural setting rather than an entertainment programme.
Anyone touring further afield, whether to Longleat, Bath, Cheddar Gorge or the Mendip Hills, will also find Frome's location convenient, roughly equidistant from several of Somerset and Wiltshire's best-known attractions. The three campsites below are all within easy reach of the town and each other, making it simple to compare them before booking, and all were verified as currently operating.
