About Greenacres Camping
Greenacres Camping occupies a peaceful patch of Somerset countryside roughly midway between Glastonbury and Wells, with views across open fields towards the Tor. It is deliberately geared towards families, with a four-and-a-half acre safe play area giving children plenty of room to run around away from pitches and traffic.
Grass pitches are available with and without electric hookup, suiting tents, caravans and motorhomes, and the site keeps things simple rather than glamping-focused, with an emphasis on straightforward, well-maintained camping. Hot showers and clean toilet blocks are provided, along with shared fridges and freezers for keeping food cold, fire pit hire for evenings around the campsite, and bikes available to borrow for exploring the surrounding lanes. A small library of books and games is kept in the reception area for rainy afternoons, and the site's owners are on hand throughout the day to help with anything from tent pegs to local recommendations.
The park is notably dog-free, a deliberate choice that, combined with the large play area and borrowable games and books, makes it a comfortable base for young families in particular. Its position close to Wookey Hole, Cheddar Gorge and Longleat, as well as Glastonbury and Wells themselves, makes it a practical touring base for a Somerset holiday built around day trips, and the site's small scale keeps it feeling personal rather than resort-like. Ice creams are sold from the site office in summer, and discount vouchers for several nearby attractions are usually available on arrival, a small touch that regular visitors appreciate when planning a busy few days out with children in tow.
