LONG HAZEL PARK REVIEWS
Helen Morris 2024.9.19
Lovely clean site.
David Hewitt 2024.9.15
Very accessible, lovely village, good food available at the local pub just a 3 minute walk away. You can tell it's owner run and perfectly maintained. Nice clean facilities - spotless, no hesitation on recommending. 5 STAR!
Stephen Houston 2024.9.13
Peaceful quiet site, spotlessly kept, great pub serving food within a short walk.
Sally Parr 2024.9.13
This is the second time we have stayed at Long Hazel and we were very impressed with our stay here. The facilities are immaculate and the grounds are also kept very tidy. We would definitely stay here again.
Stephen Rudge 2024.9.11
Very well maintained friendly site. Excellent in every respect.
Nigel Harris 2024.9.3
Very clean and tidy site well maintained and managed no issues. Easy access and secure.
Gillian Piper 2024.9.2
A very clean, quiet and secure sight with good access to different parts of Dorset and Somerset. The owners are very helpful and accommodating, would thoroughly recommend.
Jane Lisle 2024.8.30
Great location for visiting Castle Cary and Bruton etc - easy cycle ride to both and the bus also stops on the road beside Long Hazel. Easy check-in. Campsite comprises well-marked, spacious pitches amid beautifully kept grass and trees. The facilities are 5* ... bins & recycling are emptied constantly, wc's and shower kept extremely clean. As we have on board facilities I didn't use the ladies but my husband said the men's rain shower was excellent. We'll definitely return when next visiting The Newt on Somerset which is just 10 mins away.
Marsden Jones 2024.8.29
We found this site by accident whilst looking to camp out near the museum we wanted to visit. Very impressed how clean it was, the shower/toilet block very clean, grounds were immaculate and proper recycling bins. Plot was easy to find also, your name was on the pole by the plot, or the owner would come out to show you the way. Will definitely be back, thank you.
Sue Pitney 2024.8.29
Lovely quiet site very clean easily accessible and very friendly helpful owners.
Martin Lewis 2024.8.27
Excellent site with beautifully clean facilities block. Well kept pitches and adjoining grass areas.
Very friendly and helpful owners, nothing is too much trouble.
Peaceful and quiet with a pub that does food almost next door, what more could you ask for.
We will definitely be returning and will recommend it to anyone we meet.
Nicole Dawson 2024.8.26
This impeccably well maintained privately owned park for adults only has never failed to live up to its high standards.
We own a large 5th wheel trailer which they can accommodate as well as our pet dog. There’s a dog friendly pub just next door if you don’t fancy cooking!
It’s also close to the Haynes motor museum for an interesting day out.
Will be booking to come back soon
Malcolm Harvey 2024.8.26
Very clean tidy site. Great value for money. Small site, but pitches good size.
Jantje Holst 2024.8.25
Very clean and tidy site. Owners very helpful. Shower block is superb.
Andy Tough 2024.8.24
We really enjoyed our stay. The site has been run by the same family for many years and they do a very good job. Everything is well organised and clean. We got some good advice about local walks. Would definitely come back if we are in this part of the country again.
David Russell 2024.8.24
Stayed 1 night, Warn and friendly welcome from the owner. The site itself is spotlessly clean including the toilet and showers. There's a pub just outside the gate that also does food. Would highly recommend. Will definitely stay there again if we are in the area.
Susan Shakespeare 2024.8.21
I was going to be arriving late due to hold ups and the very kind owner waited for me to arrive before locking the gate. The campsite was easy to find and conveniently close to the A303. Very clean and well kept place. I would definitely recommend and would return in the future.
Tony Broad 2024.8.20
Wanted to stay somewhere close to the Haynes Motor Museum and what a brilliant chose we made, twenty minute easy walk to the Museum. What else can be said about Long Hazel Park other than absolutely excellent in every way. As already stated it is within easy walking distance to Haynes, there is a pub two minutes walk from the site and opposite the pub is the bus stop. A garage is ten minutes walk away selling all your basic needs (bread, milk, eggs etc). Alan the site owner is a really nice man and explained where everything was. We will definitely return to Long Hazel Park in the future. Thank you for a lovely stay on your excellent site.
Huw Hughes 2024.8.19
Excellent site, easy to access.Alan and Pamela very friendly and amenable and run a very good site. The facilities are immaculately maintained and the site is remarkably quiet at night. Also we always seem to have excellent weather on our visits!
Ian Collis 2024.8.19
Wonderful site, would have stayed longer, all facilities were spotless, couldn't ask for more ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Andrew Moore 2024.8.17

Andy Child 2024.8.15

Allye Moffatt 2024.8.8
Spotless quiet and central.
Gillian Elms 2024.8.8
We have stayed at Long Hazel park many times it never disappoints. Excellent location with easy access from the A303.
The facilities are very well maintained and spotlessly clean. A very quiet and peaceful site to relax and unwind and to enjoy the Beautifully kept grounds. The friendly owners Alan and Pamela go out of their way to make sure you have an enjoyable stay.
We would definitely recommend this campsite.
Gregory Inder 2024.8.8
Having decided at last minute to make the journey to Sparkford from France for a wedding we were met with the difficulty of finding accommodation in the area as two non drivers. Long Hazel Park - how lucky we found ourselves. Beautiful Cabin with wonderful service and great location for all we needed. Highly recommend
Alan Carruthers 2024.8.6
Fantastic site easy to book very easy to find and has all the amenities you need on site or in the village. Will definitely be back again if in the area.
Brian McNiff 2024.8.6
Fabulous site, well laid out, very clean facilities, and in a lovely area. The owners are very helpful and friendly. We will definitely be making a return visit in the future. Visited nearby pub for our meals, very good especially the fish and chips. Visited Haynes Motor Museum and found it very interesting, well worth a return visit. Also visited the Fleet Air Arm Museum which brought back many nostalgic memories to both myself and my wife. Overall a lovely site and we definitely recommend it if you want to chill out.
Sarah Beddlington 2024.8.5
This is a beautiful adults only touring park. The owners live on site and cannot do enough to help you if you need it. Facilities and the site itself are immaculate - very green with lots of wildlife and birds around. Even though there is a road nearby - you cannot hear it and the site is quiet. It’s in a great location for exploring the area either by car/van or busses which run regularly. There is a decent pub just down the road and the Haynes Motor Museum is in the village too. There is also a local bakery who will deliver fresh bread and cakes to your van. (Check which days they do this) We would absolutely recommend this site and will definitely return. Thanks for a truly lovely stay.
Simon Rew 2024.8.1
Fantastic site, clean as a whistle, extremely helpful owner.

Very clean campsite and friendly owner.
Susan Hughes 2024.7.10
Having stayed at Long Hazel Park on several occasions over the years, it is always a pleasure to visit this little gem of a camp site. Beautiful surroundings, immaculately cared for, excellent facilities and a warm welcome - what's not to love! We'll be back.
David File 2024.7.9
A lovely site with pristine fully serviced pitches if that is what required Adult only site. Friendly welcoming owner.
Superb facilities block spotless at all times and with modern appliances. Bus stops about 100 yards away with a good service also a decent pub adjacent to the bus stops. All in all this site is excellent value and should merit 5* attention.
Would have no hesitation in recommending this site .
Peter May 2024.7.9
Lovely stay in a quiet area with excellent facilities, I will definitely come back again and recommend the place to others. Thank you.
Karen Crockett 2024.7.8
A perfect adult only campsite just off the A303, very well kept and really clean. Will definitely return.
Carole Shorthouse 2024.7.5
We have stayed here on several occasions, usually as a stop off when travelling to and from the West country. Only one night this time previously we stayed longer so that we could visit the Haynes Motor Museum which is an easy walk from the site and well worth a visit. We look on this site as a little oasis, it is clean, beautifully kept with lovely lawns, trees and birds. We will certainly be staying at Long Hazel Park again.
Chris Smith 2024.7.3
Superb Spotless Site. Best site we have ever stayed at. On arrival you feel really welcome here. What strikes you is how spotless the site is and peaceful .I am disabled and was surprised to see the excellent facilities, the best we have ever seen anywhere in the UK. All thanks to the vigilant owners Alan & Pamela.
Graham Nurse 2024.7.3
Long Hazel Park has to be one of the best sites we have ever stayed on. The facilities are top notch and cleanliness is of the highest order. We would not hesitate to stay on this site in the future. We were on this site for the final week of a months touring and even managed a few days of proper sunshine. To quote Arnie.....I'll be back!
Clive Hickling 2024.7.1
Easy to get to and nr A303. Staff very helpful and attentive the site is clean and tidy with ongoing grounds maintenance ie grass cutting, it is near a local pub that serves food at reasonable prices. Haynes motor museum is about 5 minutes away by car. The amenities are very clean and well kept. We will be visiting again in future.
Jackie Ham 2024.6.28
Close to the fleet air arm museum and the Haynes motor museum. The site is quiet friendly and very well kept. The toilet and showers were clean on every visit during our 3 day stay.
David Guest 2024.6.14
An excellent, quite site. Lovely.
Robin Lackey 2024.6.14
Lovely couple of nights at Long Hazel Park. Site immaculate, hosts friendly and informative. Walking distance to 2 pub/restaurants and Haynes Motor Museum, which was great.
Richard Howard 2024.6.12
Always stay here,as it is a lovely quiet site, well maintained clean beautifully cared for gardens and delightful owners, what more could you want. Plenty to do around the area. Roll on next year.
Linda Bartlett 2024.6.10
The owner of the site is extremely helpful and friendly. The whole site is kept immaculately clean and tidy. The pitch was fully serviced and level.
Carolyn Bingham 2024.6.8
The site was immaculate. Easy to find and great for a holiday or to stop off on route further south west. The owners Alan and Pamela were very friendly and helped with advice, or information on the surrounding area. The site is located about 30 minutes drive from Glastonbury, Shaftesbury, and approximately an hour from Cheddar, Wells, or the south coast, Weymouth, Lyme Regis and Bridport. We enjoyed a day at the Royal Bath and West Show at Shepton Mallet. The Haynes Motor Museum is in the same village as the site and the Fleet Air Arm Museum is close by. We had a lovely meal at The Mildmay Arms a couple of miles drive away. They also do a "fish night" on a Friday, when you can eat in or take away and "steak night" on a Monday. We had never been to the south Somerset/north Dorset area and found this site was a perfect location with very caring hosts and we would highly recommend it!
Keith Macgowan 2024.6.3
Having never travelled more that 8 miles with our Classic car and self built caravan the trip from Exeter to the festival needed a one day stop over. After loads of searches around the Yeovil area, Long Hazel Park came up and a view of the sites photos made up our minds. Booked it.
Arrival day. Being slow moving we did hold a few other travellers up a bit for which we are sorry. Pulled off of the A303 and within a minute we were sat in the drive way. Turns out the welcome pack email went to our junk folder so we missed where we were staying but the owner was there to make everything go smoothly and even lent us an extension lead for the hook up.
Once we were parked up and could take in our surroundings, This is an oasis of beautiful trees and grounds. The toilet block and wash up area are fantastic.
The local pub is within 100m and beer and food in there was also fantastic. And sitting under a willow tree in the sun having a Beer sat next to our caravan - PRICELESS...
Paul Davis 2024.6.1
Clean and well organised caravan park within easy access to Haynes Museum, Cadbury Hill Fort and RNAS Museum. Large pitches with plenty of room for an 8’ wide caravan and awning. Also easy access from the A303.
Debbie Reeves 2024.6.1
We have a 27 ft 5th wheel and not many sites can accommodate it. This site can. Facilities clean and tidy. Site excellent. Nice and quiet for a peaceful holiday.
Loraine MacDonald 2024.6.1

Ray Pascoe 2024.5.20
Nice and quiet,the owners very friendly the toilets and showers very very clean to a high standard. Nice pub 5 minutes good food and drinks, thanks again Ray.
Julie Sharland 2024.5.16
Just picked up a motorhome all new to us as never had one before. When we arrived on site we were met at gate; shown where we were to go; helped me how far back to go; helped plug in our lead; talked through all amenities. Got to say was spotlessly clean, grounds were beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Was perfect first time trial for us, so thank you!

Deborah Wallace 2024.4.6
My first visit to the site and I was very impressed; easy access, friendly helpful owners and very clean well kept site and facilities. Within easy distance to several tourist attractions etc, and fuel station close by. I liked the fact that there was a barrier at night (access code provided if you wanted to be out late night or early morning). Friendly atmosphere on site. Would definitely return and recommend.
Brian Squires 2024.4.5
Lovely peaceful and clean site. Nice and level the facilities were clean and well cared for. The staff were friendly and helpful. Showers were nice and free unlike some I’ve been to lately. If you want a quiet and nice stay would recommend here.
Machaela Williams 2024.4.5
Lovely caravan site, very clean amenities. Lovely pub just a little walk away that serves great food all day. Pitches were spacious, will definitely return.
Linda Herridge 2024.4.4
Great access from A303, we'll kept site, owner was amazingly helpful. Excellent and very clean showers and toilets, even had a bit of heating in the morning to take the chill off. Great sized pitches. Close to the pub, local garage selling provisions and bus stop outside campsite. Well lit at night. Couldn't fault it st all! Can't wait to book again.
Deborah Casey 2024.3.23
Staff very friendly nice tidy site clean and well keep toilets and showers bus stop out side site and very friendly pub staff are very nice food is great.
Linda Sandford 2024.3.22
The Long Hazel campsite is an ideal location to visit so many locations. We did not have enough time there to fit it all in. Convenient if you are wanting to stay a few days or if you are on the way and just need a stop over. Clean, well kept, friendly owner, quiet, lots of wild bird song. All very nice and we shall be back to visit the rest we missed. Thank you.
Rosemary Seaman 2024.3.15
Fantastic site, great facilities. Always immaculate in every facility. Easy access from road.
Angela Payne 2024.2.21
Beautiful clean well maintained site, was greeted by Alan who straight away made us feel welcomed. Was directed to our pitch which had a sweet sign with our name on. Pam, Alan's wife also lovely, and very helpful. Would definitely go back, great place.
Darren Brown 2024.2.15
Lovely small site - quiet and peaceful. Owner very friendly and happy to help or provide recommendations
Rob Lakeman 2024.1.8
Long Hazel Park was a very nice site with great facilities. Alan and Pamela were very friendly and helpful. We had an issue with our jockey wheel when we arrived and Alan went out of his way to help us resolve the issue. There are some nice dog walks from the site and plenty to explore. The weather was awful so we look forward to returning in better weather to enjoy the walks even more.
David Evans 2024.1.6
Well kept park with immaculately kept facilities. Owner very helpful and knowledgeable on local area and informative. Will definitely be returning.
Gillian Elms 2024.1.5
Spotlessly clean facilities. Good location, staff are very welcoming and always very helpful.
Brian Dark 2024.1.4
Great site that ticks our boxes, adults only quiet site, fully serviced pitches that are well drained. Great facilities that were spotless. Well tended grounds and friendly owners on hand but unobtrusive. Local pub was ok for drinks, didn’t try the food so can’t comment. Felt safe and secure onsite gated entrance with CCTV. would stop here again.
Wendy Ivill 2023.12.20
Excellent. No recommendations as perfect.
Rachael Allen 2023.12.14
We came in December the weather was as expected but the site was lovely so didn’t matter bus on door step and pub down the road . Very friendly owners.
Jeanette Atkins 2023.12.3
This is a lovely very well kept site in a nice parkland setting. Shower block well appointed and clean. Very friendly welcome from the owner. Ideal for an overnight stop as it is just off the A303 and easily accessible. Though if you stay longer there are lots of places to visit nearby - Haynes Motor Museum, Fleet Air Arm Museum, and Sherborne to name just a few. Nice pub doing food a short walk away. Would recommend.
Susan Poley 2023.11.23
Excellent adult only site. The site owners are very welcoming and around at all times. The site is kept to an excellent standard, pitches are clean and tidy, the grass is kept mowed and the facilities are deep cleaned once a day but checked throughout the day. They recycle all items including food waste. A quite and pleasent site with good walks and lots of places to visit nearby.
Alan Cuthnell 2023.11.27
Our first trip in our new campervan. Stayed one night to visit the Fleet Air Arm Museum. Nice site, clean facilities, friendly owner. Would stay again if passing that way.
Peter Holmes 2023.11.24
We were visiting the Newt so not being local we were looking for an adult only site with good facilities and access to the surrounding area. Upon our arrival access was very good, our pitch clearly marked and with in easy reach of the very good facilities, we received a very warm welcome and settled onto our pitch quickly. The shower and toilet facilities were immaculate. From the site we were able to access not only the Newt but also the Haynes Motor museum and Glastonbury. The local pub was very welcoming and very reasonable. Would definitely stay here and again and have no hesitation in recommending this lovely site.
Nicola Harris 2023.11.23
Lovely site easy booking.
Christopher Ball 2023.12.23
Beautifully kept site with a friendly atmosphere and an excellent host.
Cheryl Hancock 2023.11.23
Clean, really helpful owners, immaculate toilet block, lovely flat pitches. We went out of season but still really enjoyed our weekend, we didn't know it but we were in Glastonbury for carnival weekend, the owner pointed this out so we stayed to watch the parade, oh my god it was amazing! Would go back specially for this in the future. Thank you.
Joy Owen 2023.11.20
As a returning customer, I highly recommend Long Hazel. The site is immaculately kept and the toilets/showers are very clean. Alan and Pamela are always on hand to assist if required. Great pub just down the road. Site is also easy to find and access is great. As we have a 10m RV, this site is ideal for us.
Sandra Bray 2023.11.6
Lovely camp site. Great welcome pack emailed in advance to us. Greeted by friendly owner. Site was scrupulously clean, recycle system easy to follow rather than the “pitch it in and hope it’s right” system operated on many sites. Owners' knowledge of area was great and thanks to his recommendation we had a lovely few hours at Castle Cary. Stayed three nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay and exploring the area.
Lauren Bush 2023.10.31
Amazing little hideaway find, unexpected for location! Dropped in for one night last minute in our campervan after a week in Devon, amazing to have such lovely facilities to arrive at. Alan was there to welcome us once we'd used their self check in service, a map and info sent via email of our exact pitch and a cute little sign to make sure we were in the right spot. Small and quiet site with pristine facilities! Cannot fault facilities or price.
Wendie Cattell 2023.10.15
What a lovely site. Perfect pitches, level and large. Facilities spotless. Everything organised and easy to use. We only stayed one night as we were travelling but would absolutely return for a longer stay.
Simon Digby 2023.10.15
Beautiful secluded site with lovely trees and lots of picnic benches. Pitches are a good size with plenty of space between each pitch, good clean toilet and shower block, excellent recycling and very friendly and welcoming owners. This site is a good base for visiting the local area.
John Surridge 2023.10.13
Just a short stay in this peaceful campsite. The facilities were first class and we will definitely return.
David Barclay 2023.10.11
Excellent site. Made to feel very welcome. Good facilities and lovely outlook. Staying again next week.
Gary Staines 2023.10.11
Big pitch, super clean facilities with lovely hot showers. Very friendly & helpful owners. Excellent dog walks direct from site. Good pub within walking distance.
Susan Simington 2023.10.10
Easy access and good location. Lovely site - well cared for, very clean.
David Rendle 2023.10.9
The experience was excellent from the booking to the departing for the trip home. The information about the site and surroundings was perfect. Alan is a mind of information and is willing to pass it on as he works around the site. Our reason for staying was to visit the Excellent Haynes Museum and the Fleet Air Arm Museum.
Alan & Pamela own a site to be very proud of, we have been Camping and mostly Motorhoming for almost 60 years we felt this site, very tidy, very clean and restful. We have no hesitation in recommending Long Hazel Park. We hope to see Alan & Pamela again. Thank you for our lovely stay.
Nicole Dawson 2023.10.6
We booked a couple of nights late September for our 5th wheel which the site could accommodate on a fully served pitch. The site was very clean, well presented and welcomed on arrival by one of the owners who showed us to our pitch. The shower/toilet blocks were spotless! I think they they have two or possibly three pitches suitable for 5th wheelers.
Allye Moffat 2023.10.5
Well laid out and excellently positioned off the A303. Excellent facilities and walking distance to the local pub.
Elizabeth Morris 2023.10.3
Lovely wash room, toilets and showers, very clean. Grounds were very pretty and well kept. Owner very friendly and informative as was welcome pack. Details of walks near to site.
David New 2023.9.30
Every aspect was excellent. From booking in until leaving. Will book again.
Adrian Thomas 2023.9.27
This site is very clean and the owner is very helpful there are a lot of things to do around this camp site.
John Parry 2023.9.23
Friendly, clean, organised.
Graeme Horwood 2023.9.22
Long Hazel Park was ideal for our stay nice clean site, toilets were spotless, owners were helpful and polite, we went to pub down the road, nice staff and food nice. Would stay at site again in the future thank you Graeme & Diane.
Paul Kitson 2023.9.22
Site was clean and staff very helpful and an easy road to access to toilets are clean and well maintained.
Huw Hughes 2023.9.16
Very welcoming attitude from Alan. Clear instructions by email made it easy and stress free to find pitch. In fact we found the site website most informative and up to date,one of the best we have seen. The care and cleanliness of the site and facilities was second to none. Lots for us to see only regret was weather to hot for us to climb Cadbury Hill! In short a site added to our list as a firm favorite.
Dawn Unsworth 2023.9.10
Very well kept site with lovely owners couple of pubs within walking distance. Very helpful advice given from site owners regarding purchasing gas bottles for local shop and when contacted they delivered to site. Excellent dog walking maps and instructions given, locals also friendly and helpful.
Michael Belcher 2023.9.9
This is a lovely site, and is the 2nd time we've camped here cannot fault it at all. Nice location, nice owners, very relaxed atmosphere, good local amenities. Cannot wait to come here again next year.
Derek Spiller 2023.9.7
A small Adult only site that offers a quiet stay in Sparkford village near to the local attractions including the Sparkford Inn just up the road. Excellent pre arrival email information, modern clean facilities including well managed grounds and we found the owner, Alan, very helpful. As experienced caravaners we thoroughly recommend this site.
William Gentle 2023.9.5
We arrived at Long Hazel Park to be greeted by Alan, our electric cable was too short to reach the mains so he went out of his way to lend us one, he gave us the disabled key to the showers and toilet facilities as we have a disabled son. The park is run very well and is immaculate and clean, definitely a 5* site. I want to thank Pamela for being so loving and kind to my son and for being very helpful. Thank you for an amazing stay.
Shane Price 2023.9.4
Thank you Alan and Pamela for having us on your beautiful holiday park, we originally booked for 5 days but extended to 8, this site is run very well by Alan & Pamela and is very clean and tidy, the toilets and shower block are spotless, it is adults only site so is very quiet and relaxing, it’s very up to date with recycling the rubbish and there is a revaluation launderette a short distance away so that’s very handy to freshen up the washing, the owners are very helpful, overall a great campsite and we loved our stay.
Moira Camden-Smith 2023.9.4
We booked here as we wanted somewhere close to home to try our new motorhome. Met on arrival, shown to our spot and given advice about facilities which were kept clean through the day. The pitches are a good size and as level as you could hope for and we had a lovely couple of days there.
Paul Walton 2023.9.3
Very clean and well kept site. Excellent location for visiting Haynes and Fleet air arm museums.
Sherry Diani 2023.9.1
We have stayed here a few times now and will definitely be returning. The owner, Alan, is attentive but not intrusive. He tries really hard to accommodate to your needs. He can often be found doing odd jobs on site. Also there is a local bakery that delivers morning pastries, bread, pies etc. Toilets are spotlessly clean and heated in the winter. The site is open all year round.
Alex Green 2023.8.25
First class adult only touring. The site is very clean well maintained. Would recommend.
Alexandra Rose 2023.8.24
A wonderful place to stay at if you like peace and quiet, tranquil surroundings, friendly owners, well maintained grounds and spotlessly clean facilities. Tent area and motorhome areas spacious. A pub within a 2 minute walk and central to many areas of interest including Sherborne Castle, Haynes motor museum and National Trust places. Gates locked at 10pm but you can still access the site if you are staying, this made it feel very safe. Excellent recycling facility too. Overall 10 out of 10 from my husband and I.
Michael Jamieson 2023.8.22
The site and amenities are first class with all the attention to detail provided by Alan and Pamela. We had a fully serviced pitch that made life very easy, we thought the cost was very reasonable and no electric meter either, we are used to that style of motorhoming.
It’s a pleasant walk to the Farm shop for a morning coffee, also the “scotch eggs” we purchased were lovely for lunch when we returned. Alan’s map was very helpful, you can make it 2 miles or more if you fancy.
We walked down to Queen Camel to the Mildmay Arms which is paved all the way. The walk was 2 miles in total.
Paul Edney 2023.8.18
Long Hazel Caravan Park is a lovely family run site in a small village. The site itself is very well laid out and it’s kept lovely by Alan & Pamela. The site is in between Haynes Car Museum and Fleet Air Museum. There is a pub a short stroll away and another one about 20 walking minutes. There is also a farm shop not far away and a shop at the petrol garage. We stayed here for a week and are already look forward to returning again.
Abi Proctor 2023.8.15
Clean facilities. Grounds maintained to a high standard. Great pitches.
Angela Watmough 2023.8.15
A truly immaculate site, good size pitches and good layout. The arrival was smooth as we were greeted by the owner who was extremely friendly and helpful. We had come for the weekend to walk some more of the Monarchs Way as we are slowly chipping away at this huge walk. It’s perfect for exploring Somerset and two pubs in walking distance which makes it even better. The showers are clean and modern. And great recycling station which always pleases me. All in all there is nothing to complain about, just a perfect, well kept friendly site
Alex Surmillins 2023.8.6
Clean toilets. Lots of room in the shower. Great kept grass. Excellent weekend.
Geoffrey Mansell 2023.7.28
A lovely adults only site quiet and a good location. Easy access spotlessly clean facilities and friendly hosts. Hope to return again.
Sue Pike 2023.7.26
Beautiful and immaculate site. Hosts were very welcoming and helpful. They were constantly cleaning and gardening so everywhere was immaculate. Set in a small village with a pub within walking distance. The only shop is a Londis located in the petrol station which had the basics although quite limited. Nearest supermarkets we found were about 5 miles away. Would definitely recommend.
Margaret Thorpe 2023.7.26
Beautiful clean site ideal for exploring surroundings. Lovely clean quiet site, we had a brilliant couple of days.
Shirley Bridges 2023.7.21
Peace, quiet amongst beautifully manicured surroundings. A1 in all categories.
Gordon Foss 2023.7.16
Lovely stay. Camp ground and facilities are the best we have stayed in. Fastidiously maintained by the owners. Really enjoyed the stay.
Sylvia and Roger Powell 2023.7.14
Excellent site, large pitches with plenty of space between them. Spotlessly clean toilet and shower block. Will definitely be back in the near future. Everyone connected to site was friendly and very helpful. All in all a real gem of a site.
Michael Clayton 2023.7.10
Having used Long Hazel Park extensively in the past, we booked a night stay over en-route to Cornwall from Suffolk. It was great to see Alan again and we were very impressed with the developments and improvements since our last stay. The grounds were beautifully kept and the amenities block was excellent.
It is such a lovely site and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay over. We will most definitely be staying again when we are in the area. Many thanks Alan and Pam for a great stay.
Carol Masterton 2023.7.7
Lovely, quiet, spotless, friendly welcome and showed us everything we needed to know. Recycling bins all labelled for ease, toilet and shower block was immaculate. If you want a couple days peace in a lovely spot, I'd recommended it.
Michael Belcher 2023.7.7
Very satisfied couldn't fault it at all. Pam and Alan were so friendly and helpful and kept a well maintained clean, lovely site.
Timothy Frost 2023.7.6
It is idyllic, peaceful, charming, lovely surroundings, great facilities!
Angela Wildgoose 2023.7.6
We really enjoyed our stay with you, and won't hesitate in returning soon! Blackforest Lodge perfect for my disabled parents. Site was well kept, facilities very clean. Quiet and friendly. Thank you so much for having us!
"The purpose of my visit was to verify the standards of maintenance and cleanliness were consistent with the Quality Standards requirements and to update our records to reflect any changes to the scores since the last inspection. It is always a pleasure to visit Long Hazel and catch up with Alan the hardworking owner. This year Alan showed me a new lodge which has been built for the less abled. The interior was finished to a very high standard with good grade fixtures and fittings. The rest of the park was looking good with the grass cut and the surrounding grounds, trees, shrubs and flowers all well maintained. The toilets and showers were spotless with good detail paid to the cleaning. Several awards this year are proudly displayed in the reception a comprehensive list Alan has produced for our reference. I can confirm that the AA Classification remains at 4 Pennant Gold with a slight increase in the quality score to a very good 92%. I thanked Alan for the information list and wished him well for the rest of the season."

This is are second stay here at Long Hazel. We were greeted by Alan who is a warm welcoming man who showed us to are pitch. Such a well presented and clean site facilities spotless clean. Lovely pub 2 min walk from site an many attractions such as Haynes motor museum about 8 mins from site and the Fleet air arm museum about 10 mins would thoroughly recommend.

Heather Stapley 2023.6.27
A lovely little site for a relaxing few days . The toilets and showers were first class, hot water and spotlessly clean. Didn’t venture far but did go to the Haynes motor museum which was good. There are 2 pubs nearby 1 being just out side of site . Bit of a walk to the other but well worth it food brilliant and very friendly staff.
Norma Miller 2023.6.25
Very clean, well kept grounds. Owner very informative and friendly.
Gillian Elms 2023.6.22
Lovely campsite, beautiful well kept park. Facilities are spotless. Friendly, helpful staff, nothing is to much trouble.
Joanne Smith 2023.6.18
Highly recommend Long Hazel Park, excellent location for nearby family party. All facilities are clean and well kept surroundings, everything is provided for a self catering visit. Booking procedure is easy and owners are informative, helpful & friendly. Highly recommend & would definitely return. Thank you.
Garry Prior 2023.6.16
Lovely well maintained spotless campsite, very helpful friendly owners. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Good location for either a stop over on the way to Cornwall or as a base for local sightseeing. Highly recommend the Haynes motor museum 5 mins up the road. 100% satisfied.
John Stockdale 2023.6.14
We find this site very attractive as a stopover on the way to Cornwall. We return annually. The site offers everything required and is maintained to a high standard.
Maureen Newell 2023.6.10
This is a lovely small site that is very well maintained. The landscape is picturesque with mature trees and plenty of wooden tables with benches. The facilities are spotlessly clean. The owners are helpful too. Handy for visiting Sherborne, Shaftesbury, Yeovilton Air Museum and Haynes Motor Museum.
Ian Bartlett 2023.6.5
Lovely site spotlessly clean and in good location.
Theresa Rich 2023.6.5
We stayed in the disabled lodge which was perfect, wide doors for my walker or would be suitable for a wheelchair user. Alan greeted us on arrival and showed us around. There was milk, a cake, tea, coffee, sugar , washing up liquid etc all included . The lodge was spotless and couldn’t fault it. A nice private decking area in the sun too, we will definitely return.
Hans Marschall 2023.6.5
Chosen by chance on our roadtrip. We were happily surprised to find an immaculate well cared for campsite. Very charming competent and helpful staff.
The facilities were kept to a brilliant standard. In my eyes this is what a perfect campsite should be. Thank you very much for the experience and keep up the good work.
David McDonald 2023.6.4
Grounds and amenities well maintained.
Andrew Pawley 2023.6.4
A seriously neat and well run site. Very peaceful in spite of being so close to the 303. Good pub nearby and a visit to the Haynes Motor Museum made it a memorable stay. Cannot recommend highly enough! Five stars.
Karen Lancaster 2023.5.27
We stayed in our American 39.5 foot RV and I have to say it was amazing. The pitch was easily accessible with all the facilities you need to hand e.g grey waste, black waste, electrical hookup and fresh water service.
Alan and Pamela were honestly the greatest hosts and there was nothing that was too much for them, even noticing that I had a hose leak, so Alan repaired it for us! Absolutely blown away with the service. Every need was catered for and any issues were dealt with with no issues e.g. Wi-Fi codes.
The campsite was well maintained, immaculate and was a home away from home. Even the washrooms were spotless.
We will definitely be back! Thank you for a lovely stay.
Kevin Watts 2023.5.26
Everyone was so very helpful and pleasant. We both enjoyed our week there.
John Fogharty 2023.5.25
Been twice now and would definitely recommend, very accommodating for our stay. Nice restaurant next door if you don't fancy venturing out or cooking. facilities very good all round.
Helen Clarke 2023.5.25
Pam and Alan the Owners are a lovely friendly couple who keep the campsite immaculate! They have won several Awards and so deserve to. The camp site is only a 5 min walk to The Sparkford Inn and Wedding Venue, which is where our friends got married. Long Hazel Park is an Adults Only camp site, and we will definitely return when we need to stay in the area.
Andrew Bennett 2023.5.22
With over a quarter of a century running the site Alan has perfected the whole process of the stay. Font of all knowledge of the local area. Need I say more.
Kenneth Seviour 2023.5.22
Despite the heavy rain in the area 2 days before we arrived the site was in very good condition, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the toilet facilities were excellent. Although in the centre of the village and close to 303 we were not disturbed by traffic noise or other campers during our stay.
Gary Davidge 2023.5.19
Lovely setting; pitches are staggered for greater privacy and super clean facilities. The owners are quite rightly proud of their site and very friendly people. We will definitely be returning.
John Chatterway 2023.5.18
Excellent site and very kind and helpful owners, very well looked after site. Loved it.
Elaine Marshall 2023.5.12
Well kept & clean facilities.
Robert Hayes 2023.5.11
We only stayed for one night, this site is a excellent site it has excellent facilities. Well kept grounds, excellent pitches, showers toilets are excellent and very clean. I could easily have spent longer there I would definitely recommend this site and will be returning myself. This site is very peaceful and just off the A303.

All of the facilities were clean and the grounds were well kept.
Joanna Goodey 2023.4.26
Very quiet pleasant stay. Clean showers/toilets. Brilliant.
Jason Jones 2023.4.23
Long Hazel Park campsite was easy to locate, in immaculate grounds with clean facilities and plenty of information sent prior to our visit. The Sparkford Inn is literally 100m down the road and we had a great Sunday lunch in The Mildway Arms which was a 20 minute walk from the site. We also visited the Haynes Motor Museum which was approx a 15min walk away and cost a £20 entrance fee which I thought was good value for money. Would visit again and recommend for a quiet break.
Tricia Wilkens 2023.4.17
This site is an adult only site and is well run by the owners. Toilets and showers very clean and the site is well kept. Alan is very helpful with information on the area and things to do. Good pubs in easy reach. Would recommend a car if you wanted to travel further. We went because we wanted to visit the Haynes Motor Museum which you could walk or cycle to if you didn't have a car. 2nd Visit to this site after many years and there have been lots of improvements made since our last visit. Pub within walking distance although not serving food while we was there at Easter there was a sign outside saying kitchen opening soon.
Stephanie Moseley 2023.4.11
5 star site. The grounds are well maintained by the delightful owners. Large pots of flowers and plants make it so pleasant. Toilets and showers are spotless and are cleaned regularly. Site is very level with generous spacing between caravans and motorhome. Very quiet too. The local family run bakery do daily deliveries which you need to order the day before. We can highly recommend! Owners, Alan and Pam were so helpful and friendly especially when I had a splinter in finger, which Alan skillfully removed! (Splinter not finger!). Love that this is an adult only site. Will definitely visit again.
Hilary Jones 2023.4.8
Wonderful owners. Such pristine grounds. Never seen such sparkling clean toilets. Nice big pitch with all facilities on the one we had. Easy reach of transport and pub. Looking forward to our next visit. Quiet caravan site lovely.
Howard Sanders 2023.4.4
Great location for exploring the South of England. Warm welcome by Alan, the owner. Great hard standing level concrete pitch with electrical hook-up. Spotlessly clean showers and toilet. Washing up area and recycling available. Water supply conveniently placed and well tended garden like setting. Pub literally 2 mins by foot. Petrol station and McDonalds 8 minutes by foot. Highly recommended spot to stay!
Bernard Rogers 2023.4.3
A very well run peaceful site. Facilities always spotless. Warden very friendly. A lot of places to visit close by Yeovil Fleet Air Arm museum, Glastonbury, Clark’s shopping village, Wincanton racecourse the list goes on. Could definitely recommend.
Kirsty Drew 2023.3.31
The site was great. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the facilities were great. It is very clear the owners pride themselves on keeping the site well managed and cared for. Access was very easy, and a good location to explore other areas. We chose this site as it is very close to fishery we were keen to try, which also did not disappoint. We thought that the noise from the A303 would be a bit of a problem, but we hardly noticed it, and we are light sleepers. Will be returning for sure.
Mark Goulden 2023.3.29
Our first time in this area and our choice of site was, for us, an excellent one - despite the weather not being the best!! In selecting a site, our criteria are fairly simple - a bus route, to allow us to explore the area more fully, a welcoming reception system, a pub within walking distance, an adult only site, if possible, and a high standard of site facilities to compliment our own in our motorhome and a good source of local information which promotes the area. We`re glad to say Long Hazel Park met all of our criteria with aplomb and we would have no qualms in recommending this site.
We have received excellent feedback from the visiting judges, who commended us on areas including our "commitment to providing the best possible welcome for all of their guests. Their passion for making facilities accessible is clearly evident as is their desire to be as eco-friendly as possible." A second judge added: "Very impressive. It's not surprising that this park has achieved such success in a variety of awards. I was left with no hesitation in seeing that this is a high quality holiday park that takes pride in offering an excellent experience on a consistent basis."

This is a great site for anyone with an RV, ours is 32ft long. Great access and close to the A303. It is a well kept and well run site. It is also nice and quiet with a pub just down the road.
Kim Bignell 2023.3.13
Clean facilities and friendly staff. Lovely local pub.
Swee-Fong Wharton 2023.3.6
We had a lovely stay, and our two adult children who came as day visitors were also impressed. Alan and Pamela were wonderful hosts, and they kept the whole site incredibly neat and tidy. As recommended by the hosts, we ordered a delivery of fresh bread and other baked goods from the local bakery and this felt like a very special treat as a delicious smelling box was delivered right to our door on our first morning there. We had a fully serviced pitch where we even had our very own chemical disposal point right next to the pitch, so nothing was too far away at all. Despite having our own facilities, we used the showers provided as they had delightful rainfall shower heads with lashings of hot water. In this instance, we used the site as a base to visit the National Trust site at Stourhead, but we can see that this could be a good base for many other activities in Somerset. We thoroughly enjoyed star-gazing via the skylight above the bed, from within the warmth of our motorhome!
Jo Davidson 2023.2.17
Very pleasant clean, quiet site in Somerset. We stayed here for the weekend as the site is very handy for Yeovil and Taunton. The site itself is very nicely laid out and the facilities are immaculate. The owners are very friendly and helpful. There are some really good circular walks from the site including to a fabulous hill fort and two pubs within walking distance. The Haynes Motor Museum is walkable too and the Fleet Air Arm Museum is a very short drive away. We also visited Bruton and if you get the chance go to The Queen of Cups in Glastonbury. It’s an incredible Turkish/Lebanese tapas restaurant.
Debra Owen 2023.2.9
Absolutely excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much. Alan was so kind helpful and informative. Very cold when we arrived, Alan helped with all the facilities ensuring everything was stress free. An absolute gem of a place we will definitely return.
Coralie Maryon 2023.1.7
We really enjoyed our stay over the New Year. The owners were really welcoming and friendly. The campsite was spotless and is most certainly one to go back to as it is in an ideal location to explore the surrounding area both for walking and local attractions.
Reg Cranton 2023.1.6
The site is immaculately kept , festive decorations were lovely and the whole site has a nice feel about it. Full recycling facilities are available and encouraged.
The owners are friendly and welcoming and have in-depth knowledge about the area and events. We stayed in a wheelchair friendly lodge with no issues at all. All rooms are suitable for wheelchair users with room to manoeuvre. Parking outside the main door to the lodge. This is a great find and suitable for a long or a short stay. We recommend the site for caravans, tents or a stay in one of the lodges.
Allan and Barbara King 2023.1.5
Fantastic camp, facilities are great and owners fantastic. Everything was excellent.
Joyce Burnett 2022.12.31
A lovely adult only site. A very quiet site immaculate in all respects. Owner helpful and friendly. Beautiful area, visited Stourhead N.T. sadly no time for Montacute N.T. Ham Hill with 350 acres and free was a good choice on Christmas Day. Motorhome parking was limited so you need to go early and park in the area of the pub. We had a gate leading straight out onto a lovely walk. The site was so peaceful. The distant noise of the A303 was no problem. This is a site we would re-visit in the autumn and winter months. The toilet and showers were the cleanest we've ever seen. No dog walk on site but two walks, one adjoining the site and one straight across from the entrance.
Timothy Frost 2022.12.29
This place is clean, tidy and well maintained. It is in easy range of the A303. A great stopover for London to South West holiday makers. A nice pub in walking distance, a good place to eat and very welcoming. Excellent overall.
Terry Knight 2022.12.2
A first class peace haven. Simple to check in in with the the provided information sent prior to leaving home. Although we pitched OK, the owner nevertheless came to ensure all was fine and we knew where everything was. Pitches for our motorhome were level and hardstanding, handy in November! Our stay was short, just overnight en route home, but if we wanted somewhere in this area again, this would be a great choice with excellent facilites, spotlessly clean. It's not a large site which we liked, and it was quiet.
Steven Lewis 2022.11.18
Excellent site with lovely surroundings and well laid out pitches. The facilities were also excellent and the owner/wardens were most welcoming. Local bus service made travelling easier and the Sparkford Inn just up the road served great food with a warm atmosphere. Very happy to recommend this site for families or couples, really enjoyed and hope to be back again before too long.
Ian Walford 2022.11.14
Alan could not be more helpful. Lovely site, this is the best we have stayed at and returned and will again soon.
Gareth Whale 2022.11.11
We had a great stay lovely, quiet, clean well cared for site and a great location for local attractions.
Andy Newell 2022.11.11
A perfect place to stay for a break away from it all. We tend to use CL sites but decided to try this one as it had great reviews. A well maintained site with very friendly hosts and excellent services throughout the site. One of the cleanest sites we have visited, showers and toilets exceptional. Plenty of walks and places to visit in the surrounding area, fabulous Sunday Lunch at The Mitre Inn Sandford Orcas and the local Sparkford Inn was just a walk down the road which again had good pub grub.
Jackie Blake 2022.11.5
Lovely quite site in a good location. Good toilet block. Close to the Haynes Museum, which is well worth the trip. Also good food at the local pub, which is a few mins walk from the site. Central location to all towns in the area. Close to petrol station. Friendly owner
Roger Quarendon 2022.10.30
Everything needed was provided for an excellent stay. Toilets spotless, and the site is neat and well laid out. There is a pub just up the road, and a Londis and McDonalds within walking distance the other way. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Timothy Frost 2022.10.28
Very pleasant, clean and well organised. Has everything I need.
Dean Gibbens 2022.10.18
What a find! Lovely clean campsite in a lovely location. Nice size pitches. Toilet and shower block spotless. Owned by lovely friendly people. Would highly recommend.
David Grice 2022.10.13
This was our first break at Long Hazel Park and it was TOTALLY OUTSTANDING!!!! We had the warmest of welcomes from Alan and Pam. They spent time giving us all the information we needed re buses, restaurants, pubs, shops and places to visit. It was an easy access to the camp site and the whole site was as spotless as the facilities, and the added bonus of adults only and open all year. THANK YOU ALAN AND PAM FOR MAKING OUR STAY SO ENJOYABLE. We will certainly be visiting again and again and again!!!
Sherran Chalkley 2022.10.12
The site was well set out with plenty of space between pitches. Very clean and tidy. Lovely hot showers. Friendly warm welcome.
David Pring 2022.10.12
Perfect place stay. Couldn't fault the cleanliness of toilets and all facilities. A good bus service just out side the park with plenty of places to visit. Perfect.
Sara McAleese 2022.10.11
Excellent site - friendly and welcoming- grounds immaculately kept - cleanest refuse bins I’ve ever seen! Very easy access from the A303. Fully serviced pitch- literally- included black water waste - especially helpful as husband disabled.
Dave Saban 2022.10.10
Really good stay.
Wim En Joan Portengen 2022.10.9
As our caravan is of the continental type, with the door opening on the opposite side, a special pitch was allocated for us. Service in every area and very friendly. Campsite is nice and spacious. In the area we visited: Sherborne with fine cathedral, Country house with garden Lytes Cary Manor, Fleet Air Arm Museum, Yeovil.
Kim Witterick 2022.10.8
What a wonderful small but friendly site. My husband had no trouble bringing our 5th wheeler onto this site and parking it. We had electric and water hook- up and grey/black waster too. We were ok to reach the black waste with our hoses, but if not the owner would have let us use his hose to connect to the black. Picnic tables. W.C / Showers are open 24/7 / night lights and full recycling on site (not many sites do this, including food waste being separate). There was nothing the owner wouldn't help us with on site as well as local knowledge of places to go and visit including discount codes where applicable. Our dog loved the site too, there was a lovely Dog Walk opposite the site for a nice short or long walk and owner had given us a Dog Walking Map. We visited near by the Haynes Museum /Fleet Air Arm Museum (My favourite) both are annual tickets in the price. Montacute House / Burnham-on-sea to name but a view places. Plenty of places nearby to eat including Mildmay Arms
Rob Twycross 2022.10.6
I can't recommend this little gem of a site highly enough. Very easy access, straight off the main road and in, no horrible narrow lanes to navigate. Sited right near the facilities, garage a short walk away, let alone a drive, nearby pubs, eatery etc. We stayed to be close to a couple of events in the area, both evening events and it was superb. We arrived in heavy rain and Alan offered to help me set up, even in the rain, he couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. We were late back the second night after attending a friend's birthday and access was easy through the gate with the simple to use padlock. Nice clean showers and toilets, a super disabled set up for my wife, which made life very pleasant. Definitely on our favourites list!
Michelle Connolly 2022.10.4
Sneaked in a little few days at the end of the summer to see friends. Found this site close to where they live and what a find! The site and facilities are all kept immaculate. The owners are extremely friendly and helpful with advice about the local area. Showers hot and efficient and also washing facilities. The site recycle as much waste as possible and easy to separate into the bins. Being in a small town local facilities are very good to with a pub and shops nearby. A short walk into Queen Camel where there is a lovely community cafe and another good pub. Would definitely recommend, we will certainly be back 😀.
Susan Reed 2022.10.2
Great facilities, great location for motor museum. Bakery a nice touch.
Alan Hoskins 2022.9.28
Our stay was for 6 nights the site is clean fresh well kept and that is the same for the toilet blocks with really clean surfaces as used in hospitals and good recycling. The owners are friendly and so helpful and the fully serviced pitches great. Close to Haynes Motor museum and a number of lovely towns and villages along with outlet shopping so 6 stars Alan and team great site see you again soon.
Mike Stears 2022.9.25
Spotless site, even pitches, 5 minutes from A303, so perfect stop off point if travelling to or from Cornwall.
Robert Negus 2022.9.19
Very clean and tidy site, nice facilities, very helpful staff.
Sharon Groves 2022.9.16
A lovely small site, situated in the centre of the village with close by pubs and farm shops for your delight. The garage and small shop just down the road are very convenient for those incidental things you want or need. Plenty of local places to visit with excellent road links to travel further afield. Accessibility to the site is good especially given its location on the road. Lovely clean toilets and showers with a separate room for disabled visitors. The owner is passionate about continually improving the site especially in providing better access for all.
David Grace 2022.9.16
2 night stay in order to visit ageing relative in Street. Would have stayed longer if not for prior appointment on the following day. Very quiet and clean with beautifully managed flower beds. We will be returning.
Andrew Bridgeman 2022.9.15
The site was exceptionally clean, toilet block immaculate, best I've ever been to on any touring caravan site. Pitches are of a good size, nothing to do on site (but that suits me) so nice and quiet, excellent site.
Simon Govier 2022.9.14
Lovely site with very friendly and informative owner. Facilities excellent. Clean and tidy. It was great to see PROPER recycling facilities, including food waste, we try very hard at home to recycle and it is always a shame when campsite facilities are not good, Long Hazel Park well done. 5 stars.
Patrick O'Neill 2022.9.5
The owners were very helpful and pleasant, the site has mature trees dotted around. A peaceful camping site for adults only.
Gregory George 2022.9.4
A very clean and tidy site, wonderfully quite, great place to stay for a restful time, the showers and toilets were spotless, we will return in the future.
Karen Gifford 2022.9.4
A little treasure. A fantastic site, clean facilities, pretty surroundings and helpful owners.
Debs Davis 2022.9.4
Immaculate, well maintained site. Adults only and very friendly hosts, who worked relentlessly to keep everything clean and tidy for guests. Absolutely perfect.
Hannah Clifton 2022.9.3
What a lovely hidden gem. The campsite is well equipped, in a good location and just pure bliss to stay at. The other campers were all very friendly and respectful. We stayed with another couple (separate pitches/tents) and we requested adjacent pitches which was accommodated. Alan said we could put the tents where we wanted on the pitches, and also move further back to put our joint gazebo (this was great). The facilities were immaculate. Alan and Pamela were super responsive, very friendly and have one of the best campsites I’ve ever stayed at. I cannot wait to come back! (P.S recommend the Air Fleet Museum and The Old Parlour Farm Shop for a cracking lunch!)
Victoria Baines 2022.9.3
A lovely, well kept site with very helpful owners. Clear instructions and well signposted. We were there at a busy bank holiday weekend but never had to queue for the facilities. Would recommend to friends.
Andy Wade 2022.8.30
A quiet site in a quite village setting. Very well located for caravan access with a main road not far away - a small pub round the corner and some great sites/places to visit a small drive away or even a longer walk in some cases. Lovely well-maintained facilities and friendly staff.
Steven Smith-Walker 2022.8.30
Absolutely lovely site, great location for seeing all the sites in Somerset and surrounding counties. This site was immaculately kept clean, the facilities were fantastic and the owners Alan & Pam could not be anymore helpful I highly recommend this site.
Matt Atkins 2022.8.28
Stayed for 3 nights to explore the local area. Very easy to access the site from the A303. The site is very well kept and the toilet / shower block was spotlessly clean. Alan and Pamela were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a lovely walk from the site to Cadbury Castle returning via a farm shop and local pub for dinner. Another day we drove to Glastonbury which took about 30 mins through lovely countryside. We would definitely recommend this site to others especially as a stopover if travelling long distance.
Bernard Ferrie 2022.8.28
On entry it is lovely and staff there ready to assist. Nice pitch nice quiet site, would happily return and probably will as it is open all year.
Emma Thomas 2022.8.24
It was so lovely to stay somewhere quiet & dedicated to adults. The quality of the facilities was outstanding & everything was spotless. We stayed in a tent on lovely soft well-maintained grass. The owners clearly care deeply about what they offer.
Adrian Moffat 2022.8.20
We have stayed here before and will do again it is local to us 20 minute drive the owners Alan and Pamela are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. The site is ideally located to explore Somerset and all it has to offer Shepton Mallet is ideal for shopping and Castle Cary is very much a unique place. We shall definitely return here again and again. Would thoroughly recommend Long Hazel.
Greg Hawkins 2022.8.20
Very satisfied with everything at this lovely little campsite. Toilets and showers always spotless. Location is great, close enough even for the South coast. Alan always on hand with advice and recommendations. The price is also competitive during these difficult times. I would not hesitate to recommend this site to anyone. Haynes Motor Museum not far away and worth a visit (discounted tickets when you stay at Long Hazel).
Ann Rogers 2022.8.20
After staying on a different site during an excessively hot weekend, it was lovely to arrive at Long Hazel. A very helpful warden greeted us as he was placing names on pitches. Everything seemed so clean and tidy and the facilities were exceptionally good. I recall visiting many years ago and remember it being good then. Very easy access from the High Street and no narrow lanes. It is a site that has well kept grounds and very nice mature trees. 10/10 on every aspect.
Lucy Grist 2022.8.19
We are currently on a tour of Wales staying at many campsites, we stopped at Long Hazel for 2 nights on our way through from Hampshire before we crossed to Wales. We have stayed in 5 other campsites since Long Hazel and all we keep saying is… “it’s OK but it’s no Long Hazel!” We really were spoiled with the quiet location, clean and fresh facilities and the lovely owner Alan who went round & said hello to all his guests. You can just tell the family are passionate about it and I can’t rave about it enough. We have already talked about finding an excuse to come back again! Thank you x
Anne Massam 2022.8.17
The site is very peaceful. The toilets were immaculate. Even the recycling bins were clean. Adults only which suited us. The owners work really hard and were very helpful. If I'm ever back in the area I would definitely book again.
Ian Beasley 2022.8.13
Absolutely fabulous little site, immaculately maintained with spotless facilities & great hosts, been here a few times as it’s adults only, will be returning again soon would recommend to anyone
Steve Davidge 2022.8.13
Great little site. Very well kept. Clean showers and facilities.
Paul Little 2022.8.13
Lovely area for camping, very clean toilet facilities, will look forward to staying again.
Louise Aston 2022.8.12
We originally booked in to this site for 3 nights but were so impressed with it we extended our stay to 5 nights. Really good directions and signage. Alan came out to greet us and gave us lots of advice on local attractions. The shower/toilet block was spotless at all times. The price was good as we had a fully serviced pitch. Close to 2 National Trust properties and the Haynes Motor Museum. Would definitely recommend this site and would return if we were in the area.
Steve Crask 2022.8.9
All perfect.
Lisa Legg 2022.8.5
Quiet, clean, adult only. All very good.
Colin and Rita Nees 2022.8.2
Privately run site. Meticulously maintained by owners who live on site. Helpful too.
Anna Bryant 2022.8.2
Quiet friendly site. Very helpful owners. Leant us a longer hook up lead and gave us a warm welcome. Well kept quiet site.
Stephen Piggin 2022.8.1
Best site we've stayed on for a long time everyone helpful and friendly.
Val Plummer 2022.7.31
Very convenient location just off A303, easy to find. There is a bit of background noise from the road but not too intrusive. Large level, fully serviced pitch. Warm welcome from Alan who is a font of information on the local area. Something unique, in our experience, was the opportunity to pay an extra £5 to arrive early and the same again to leave late. It is often such a pain knowing where you can park up in a large motorhome towing a car waiting to gain access to the next site on your itinerary. There is no extra charge for a tow car either! Sherborne with its lovely pedestrianised centre, abbey and castle are close by; Yeovil too. The Haynes Motor Museum is literally on the doorstep and a little further afield are Stourhead and Montacute National Trust properties. All in all a superb stay during the hottest days of the year.
Angela Flamank 2022.7.25
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, quite, relaxing, clean amenities, friendly owners. Bonus having internet on pitch, would recommend to others and hopefully stay again. Easy accessible for visiting local attractions and to get to from major roads.
Kevin Newitt 2022.7.25
We had a lovely stay the site was immaculate and very quiet which suited us and the owner was very accommodating and couldn't do enough for you.
Colin Nash 2022.7.25
Only stayed for one night to break our journey onwards but was pleasantly surprised. Very clean tidy site good facilities and friendly owner who pointed out the local amenities and in our case dog walks.
Lynda Tossell 2022.7.25
Lovely quiet site, beautifully maintained and the owners were very welcoming and helpful. Will definitely return.
Ian Walford 2022.7.22
Great site. The owner was very helpful and the site was lovely. We loved the plot we had and as we only live in Devon will be returning.
Stanislaw Sidorowicz 2022.7.21
Peaceful and welcoming site. The owner greeted us on arrival and was helpful and accommodating. The site was spotless, and well spaced. We enjoyed the benefit of a serviced pitch. The site is close to the Haynes Motor museum and Fleet Air Arm museum. Yeovil is close by. The pizza van visits the site and near Mildmay Arms provides excellent pub food.
Stuart Crossley 2022.7.21
Long Hazel Park; an excellent stop-over, quiet, clean and convenient. We stayed at Long Hazel Park to break our journey between Land's End and Leicestershire. The directions and signage to the Park were excellent and the location ensured a minimum detour from our route. The owner showed us great kindness and was most helpful on our arrival. The site was very well laid out, clean and tidy as were all the facilities. We felt it was a very safe well-run site and excellent value. The Haynes Motor Museum, a short walk from the site, was well worth a visit. The local pub restaurant in the next village provided an excellent evening meal.
Tracy Van Dyk 2022.7.19
The owners were very friendly and helpful. The site is quiet and sitting under the willow tree was the perfect place to keep cool and catchup with family. The convenience of a picnic table was an added bonus. The best thing about this campsite is the shower block. The best facilities we have ever encountered. They were amazing and kept spotlessly clean. We will definitely be back.
Catherine Hywood 2022.7.16
Such a peaceful and clean campsite. Facilities were spot on and had a lovely welcome. Will definitely be returning.
Richard Barnard 2022.7.15
I thought the campsite was very nice and clean and the owners could not have been more helpful. It was a pleasure staying there.
Eileen Hurley 2022.7.15
Excellent facilities and spotlessly clean. Very helpful hosts.
Paul Freeman 2022.7.13
We needed a 1 night stay on our way home & found Long Hazel which was well positioned for us just off A303. The site has a rural feel even though not far from main road. Facilities were clean. The owner was very helpful particularly when our mains cable wouldn't work & loaned us one. Pub within walking distance.
Charmian Messenger 2022.7.10
Calm and very friendly greeting. Relaxing site. This is a lovely clean and well run site. Alan and Pam are very helpful and will always sort out any problems you may have. The setting is very pretty and the local pub is a stones' throw away and serves excellent Sunday lunches but you may need to book.
Thomas Jarrett 2022.7.10
Very clean and tidy. Friendly staff. All very professional and efficient. Top marks.
Michael and Karen Smith 2022.7.2
As advertised online. Excellent and clean facilities. Friendly and organised greeting to name marked pitch. lovely to walk or cycle and find small villages close by. Thank you Alan and Pamela and their daughter.
Jane Flood 2022.7.2
Lovely campsite in the heart of Somerset, very quaint and quiet. Called on the morning I needed a pitch and they were very accommodating. The owner was very friendly and helpful providing me with information on the local amenities. There is a local pub and Londis shop nearby and the showers and toilets were impeccable. Highly recommend.
Pat Sarre 2022.7.1
The staff are so friendly. Had a great time with friendly helpful stay.
David Turner 2022.7.1
This site is ideal. The owner is brilliant helpful in every respect. The facilities are of an excellent standard with clean and bright toilet blocks and facilities.
As its an adults only site it is quiet and calm ,an oasis hidden behind houses . It has good wifi, and excellent hardstanding sites with easy access to water. Each pitch is well maintained with trees between each. Lots of wildlife. We had a problem with our Satellite receiver and the owner promptly came to help with a ladder to help sort it out. For us its handy to Yeovil and the Athletics Track. We will be back.
Dan Anderson 2022.6.30
Site owner was extremely pleasant and helpful site was immaculate wash areas spotless and very handy for sight seeing.
Lorrain McGregor 2022.6.23
The site is really well set out with generously sized pitches and good natural screening from hedges and trees giving a degree of privacy. Facilities block was clean and comfortable with a separate dry area in the shower cubicles for changing.
Darren Webb 2022.6.23
Fantastic site with excellent facilities. Beautifully maintained. Toilet block facilities best we've ever seen. Attentive & helpful Wardens.
Will definitely be back again in the future.
Stephen and Sandra Sheppard 2022.6.18
Very Satisfied with everything we encountered. Easy to find. The lodge we stayed in for two nights was bright clean and well equipped for our needs. We were attending a wedding two blocks away Long Hazel was perfectly situated for toing and froing. We were shown the amenities in the toilet block, though we were self contained enough not to need them, we were very impressed with the hi tech facilities particularly in respect of disabled requirements. Finally our hosts were welcoming charming and helpful.
Simon Eden 2022.6.17
Fantastic find! Excellent facilities and highly recommended if you prefer a smaller site.
Ian Wilkinson 2022.6.14
Easy access and excellent location for touring this part of Somerset and the Haynes Museum. Very nice owners who keep the park immaculately. Two pubs nearby, the best of which is half hours walk to village of Queen Camel. We will return.
Brian and Ann Goldswain 2022.6.11
Very tidy park. Overall well laid out.
Nigel Meaking 2022.6.11
Fantastic site and owners. We had an excellent stay at long Hazel Park. The owners were very welcoming and nice. The facilities were spotless with very regular cleaning throughout the day. The pitches were clean and tidy. Overall an excellent stay and we will definitely be returning for round two.
Lisa Patterson 2022.6.11
Lovely site, well kept and spotlessly clean great little set up, very nice owners, would return. Very satisfied with everything they even sent local info about what's on offer ie ordering a bakery delivery and such a few days before arrival and pizza van, could not fault anything! Also as we went jubilee week and they had decorated the park asked us to do the same with our tents. Great few days!
Jeanette Wright 2022.6.11
Long Hazel Park is an excellent campsite, it was very clean and well run with the owners being extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend and we will be making a return trip!
Sue Biggs 2022.6.10
Quiet, friendly site. We stayed for the jubilee with my partner and friends, loved the site it’s small and very well maintained. Love the fact it was adult only and everyone we met there was so friendly. Alan the owner and his wife were very helpful and made us feel welcome, the email they send you to advise you of your pitch was so informative and gave plenty of information as to where we could go, what activities were going on - I was so impressed they provide a 5 star experience and run an excellent site. We will return in the near future. The villages, walks and locals were all friendly and they made a fantastic effort to celebrate the queens jubilee - the beacon lighting was fantastic and well worth the 2 1/2 Mile walk - something I will never forget. Thank you for making us feel welcome, we had a fabulous 4 day stay and will recommend it.
"It was good to visit Long Hazel again and catch up with Alan the hardworking owner. This year sees further investment in the park and Alan kindly pointed out improvements on our walk around which he has compiled a list for our reference. A very comprehensive welcome letter is sent out to all customers prior to arrival highlighting all aspects of the park and surrounding areas. Long Hazel has been awarded a Silver from Bristol Bath and Somerset Tourism for Ethical, Sustainable, and Responsible Tourism. All aspects of the park were well managed and maintained and a credit to the owners. I can confirm that the AA Classification remains at 4 Pennant Gold with a slight increase in the quality to a very good 91%. I thanked Alan for his time and wished him well for the rest of the season."

Beautifully kept site well manicured grass area, spotless toilet facilities, excellent disabled toilet facility.
Linda Callaghan 2022.5.27
Really worth a visit
Catherine Cheeseley 2.22.5.21
A very tranquil, quiet site. If you just want to sit and put your feet up, chill and relax then this is the place to come. Very clean site, not too big, very friendly owner and dog friendly with lovely walk just across the road.
Jackie and Michael Pawley 2022.5.19
A very pretty well laid out site. Peaceful and relaxing. Good size pitch. Facilities were spotless. Best caravan site we have visited. Will definitely return. Can't wait.
We have received a Tripadvisor 2022 Travellers' Choice Award for consistently receiving excellent reviews from our guests. Travellers' Choice Awards are awarded to the top 10% of all businesses listed on the platform. As a small business, we are incredibly grateful for such fantastic feedback from our guests!
"Long Hazel Park looks like a lovely place to stay, and clearly has a good green ethos and some very good elements.
The green content was very easy to find, and this site really said "We are proud of our green credentials."
I particularly liked:
- the way you give distances from your local walks
- that you mentioned the bus. Too often the option of public transport is overlooked.
- your information about hazel trees. It's so good to know the why, as well as what has been done.
There's a strong sense of championing the local. Putting in local leaflets is a commendable action, as is encouraging local deliveries at timed slots. The Covid secure operations must give much reassurance to the customers. One thoughtful highlight was that one of the basins had a shower curtain which gave much more privacy - the owner had noticed that there were some visitors from ethnic minorities who wished for more privacy.
The three acre site is beautifully kept with space for tents, motor homes and caravans. There are also lodges which are owned or for rent. Plants, hedging and trees are kept immaculately, with bird boxes on every tree."

This is a gem of a site. The site and its facilities are spotless. The site is secure at night with gated entrance etc. Access to the site is easy and straight forward. Pitches are level and our motorhome required no levelling blocks etc. The site is within easy reach of Haynes Motor Museum and the Fleet Air Arm Museum. A Londis shop is within the nearby filling station and also a Mcdonalds both about 10 minutes walk. A lovely site with very friendly owners. I do no not usually give reviews but on this occasion feel entirely justified in giving this site very positive feedback. Will we return ,of course we will asap. One of the best sites we have visited.
Peter Matthews 2022.4.21
Great place to relax. Lovely site.
Chris Wilkinson 2022.4.14
Compact and neat. Very efficient. Everything clean and working.
Kim Shepherd 2022.4.12
Our 2nd visit to Long Hazel Park and it doesn’t disappoint. The site is immaculately kept with lots of nice touches like bird feeding stations and seasonal flower planting. I love the name sign on your pitch so you can just go straight in. Facilities are immaculately clean at all times. Lots of information given pre arrival which is very helpful. Alan is passionate about his site and the environmental impact and is doing all he can to reduce the carbon footprint. We will definitely stay again.
Kayt Pile 2022.4.10
The first time I stayed was 4 years ago -I was so impressed with the whole site. The whole family are involved and make you feel so welcome - its like staying in a friends rather beautiful back garden. Their whole ethos towards recycling, green energy, planting of many many trees and shrubs, planting for the wild life, building a safe habitat for hedgehogs is an amazing achievement, of which they should be very proud. I have stayed many times enjoying the peace and quite and old fashion hospitality..... BLISS..... Very many thanks.
David Hodgkyns 2022.4.2
Just had a lovely 3 night stay at Long Hazel Park excellent facilities easy access definitely return visit needed.
Adrian Moffatt 2022.3.26
We stayed at Long Hazel for 2 nights and the cleanliness of the facilities were extremely good. We will be returning to Long Hazel for 3 nights in 2 weeks time it is close to home but feels like we are away on holiday would definitely recommend to others.
Brenda Burns 2022.3.25
Loved the quiet and the beautiful trees.
Peter Jones 2022.3.22
Clean tidy accessible friendly. Good facilities.
Helen Moore 2022.3.12
We booked as we were attending a photo shoot at Haynes Museum. 14 VW campers, although shame it was only 1 night as the site is immaculate and the facilities are spotless. Well run, good value and the owners are very hands on and friendly. Highly recommended.
David Moth 2022.3.4
A very nice clean and quiet site. I always use it if staying in the area.
Ronald Barnes 2022.3.4

Greeted by the owner very helpful nothing to much trouble at all. He is very passionate about his site and will return.
Brendan Dykes 2022.1.27
A great place to stay for the local Haynes Car Museum, Fleet Air Arm Museum and National Trust sites. South Somerset is also a beautiful area, and we enjoyed climbing Cadbury Castle and looking at the views as far as Glastonbury Tour despite the winter gloom.
Albert Elphick 2022.1.20
Excellent facilities on pitch, water, power, black and grey waste disposal. Our vehicle is 10 meters long will a car in the back and there was still room for a larger motorhome. Site owner most helpful and knowledgeable about attractions in the local area.
Stephen Bryan 2022.1.15
A first class park. We will be back.
Kenneth Hill 2022.1.4
Bit of a hidden gem, but easy enough to find and access. Nice level pitches in small well kept site. Spotless facilities, showers, toilets and wash up. Although no dog walk area, no problem as a very short walk out of the main entrance sees you cross the road and into a path leading to closed field. Turn left and the village pub beckons, turn right and 5 minutes walk takes you to the services for any missed grocery items. Our main aim for the stay was to visit Cadbury Castle, (a short drive, decent easy walk). Overall, just what we needed.
Mary Ible 2022.1.3
My husband and I only stayed at the Long Hazel site for two nights but really enjoyed our visit. The showers and toilets were spotlessly clean and tidy. The owner was friendly and helpful and the site was quiet and peaceful. Being an adult only site it was perfect for us and anyone looking for a calm, quiet vaccination.
Carole Allcock 2021.12.30
We were visiting a local country home for their Christmas lights and Long Hazel was booked for us by our friends who also stayed. What a lovely well run facility. Brilliant.
Barbara Smith 2021.12.16
Met friends and parked motorhomes together. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Their Christmas decorations are fab! Fantastic stay. Local pub lovely meals for us all. Highly Recommend it, convenient for many attractions. We did Stourhead Xmas lights sat and bath show ground flea market Sunday.
Mark and Deborah Golley 2021.12.16
We attended for a weekend away and found this site to be very good. Great showers and washing up block. Hard standing for motorhomes with easy access electrical hook up and grey waste. Spoke to the owners on arrival and they were friendly yet not too intrusive. Gave us all the info we required.
The Sparkford inn serves great food and we had 2 wonderful evenings away with friends. Thank you Long Hazel Park.
Ross Billingsley 2021.12.6
We increased our stay from 4 nights to 7 due to the peaceful and well organised site. There are lots of beautiful places to visit including Stourhead and Montacute NT houses open all year. We even had a day trip to the coast (Lyme Regis) All good where Covid cleaning etc is concerned. Quiet and friendly.
Ian Buckingham 2021.11.26
No improvement required. An immaculate site. We were made to feel welcome from the start and fully informed regarding the site and any questions we asked. The site is very well looked after with very friendly staff and we thoroughly recommend it.
Eric Getchell 2021.11.23
Great stay.
John Kavanagh 2021.11.4
A nice 2 night stay a shame about the weather! Probably our last campervan outing for the year, looking forward to next spring.
David Moth 2021.10.30
Stayed at campsite as visiting RNAS Yeovilton. Site very good and clean. Owners very friendly. Sites COVID precautions very good.
Malcolm and Janet Webb 2021.10.27
Great holiday site. The improvements to the site facilities and washrooms is excellent. The whole site is looking much improved. The staff are very helpful and have lots of plans to carry out lots of further improvements.
Martin Hopkins 2021.10.24
One of the best camp sites I've been to in 25 years of caravaning. Very friendly and helpful been to a lot of top 100 camp sites this camp site should definitely get into top 100.
Steve Davidge 2021.10.23
Great site. Facilities always clean. Site always neat and tidy. No fuss booking on line, pitch highlighted for you on confirmation and name board placed next to pitch. What more could be easier.
Michelle Negri 2021.10.18
Had a lovely peaceful stay here at the weekend (15-17 October) - an excellent site, lovely and quiet, really well maintained and the facilities are excellent and super clean. Lovely owner who was very helpful when we needed somewhere to eat and he recommended a local pub nearby within walking distance. Also visited Haynes Motor Museum, which is again within walking distance, for a lovely day out! We will definitely be returning again very soon. 10/10 stay on all counts!
"tastefully landscaped with nature friendly plantings, colourful seasonal plants and shrubs and lovely mature trees. Lots more plantings, plant troughs and new fencing noted. Lots of new bird boxes, bug hotels and hedgehog houses.
Spacious and well-defined pitches with lots of new imrpovements noted since last visit. Much improved accessible wet room - upgraded and now presents to an excellent standard."

We had a fantastic stay in a very well organised and clean site. Lovely welcome on arrival and plenty of information emailed to us in advance. We will definitely be returning!
Andy Rae 2021.9.16
Met on arrival by the owner who instantly became your best friend. His politeness and offer of help simply outstanding. The pitches are very well spaced out with adequate room between motor homes and caravans. Must add easy access into the site off the main road. Site surrounded by trees with picnic benches dotted about for your use. Toilet and wash facilities absolutely spotlessly clean. Full recycling facilities which is fully encouraged. All in all the site is a credit to the wonderful people of own and run the site. Only a few minutes stroll away is a lovely village pub and for you car enthusiasts a visit to the Haynes Motor Museum is a must which is less than a mile away. To sum up if you want a peaceful getaway with excellent wash and toilet facilities then this is a must for you. Will we return, 100% we will.
Lyndon Fraser 2021.9.14

Chris and Julia Barratt 2021.9.2
Easy to find campsite, level and plenty of walks nearby without using the car, plus lots of local historical sites within a short distance and without having to use A303. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
"Pamela and Alan Walton are really enthusiastic about their small, beautifully kept, adults-only park in the Somerset village of Sparkford where they will make you most welcome. This level, landscaped site is surrounded by attractive beech hedging, silver birch and many other ornamental trees and the park has a relaxed, comfortable feel. It provides 50 touring pitches for all types of units (max. 12 m) with 16A electricity hook-ups (32A on request), 25 pitches with hardstanding, 12 being fully serviced and some extra long with grass lawns at the side, and the entrance has been widened for easier access.
Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this site offers a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Buzzards, hawks and even peregrine falcons can often be seen. Established in 1945, the site is close to King Arthur’s Camelot Castle, whose history is well researched by the owner. The park is an easy walk to Sparkford village, which has an inn and a shop. It is securely locked at night and the owner lives on the premises. This is well located for the Haynes Motor Museum, the Royal Air Arm Museum in Yeovilton, and the Newt centre in Bruton and is close to the A303."

This is the third time we have stayed here and again we weren't disappointed. Alan and Pamela are great hosts and nothing was too much trouble.
Andrew Chislett 2021.8.29
An excellent location to visit surrounding areas or just as a stop over whilst travelling through. The site is extremely well maintained and very hygienic from all perspectives especially covid. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. There is a lovely pub/restaurant almost next door with another in the village about 20 mins walk away. They have arranged delivery of food and meals at various times and from several establishments and provide menus etc at booking point which are also displayed on site. There is a wood a few mins walk away, a fuel station and the obligatory McDonalds. A lovely dog walk opposite the entrance which leads into a field after crossing the railway line. Definitely returning soon and would highly recommend.
Ruth Evans 2021.8.28
This is by far the best site we have stayed in for all manner of reasons. To begin with, it’s really pretty, with mature trees and shrubs dotted around a lovely field area. The picnic benches are a great idea too. It has a great local pub 100 yards away that was friendly and served good, honest and reasonable pub grub. Local businesses including bakers, cafes and pubs offered food delivery services and pizza is cooked on site every Friday! If you wanted a totally relaxing break you literally wouldn’t have to cook at all! Such a great idea and service! The shower and toilet areas were immaculate and fantastically comfy and warm. The pre booked system allowed you to choose when you wanted to use the facilities and as a result you had them almost to yourself without having to queue. It was obvious that Alan and his family were still adhering to Covid guidelines and we felt safe as a result. Recycling bins were great too; no ‘general waste chucked here’ but all the options you need to recycle properly. The owners could not have been more helpful. Although the reception area is closed to customers on arrival, everything you could possibly need to know in order to have an easy break is sent via email before arrival and they respond to questions pretty much immediately. Alan was lovely and really helpful. He showed us to our pitch on arrival and his tips for the best way to get home were spot on! We had a fantastic four day break with lovely walks on the doorstep and lots of great places to visit close by. We are definitely going to visit again and recommend the site without hesitation!
Claire Conley 2021.8.28
The site was immaculate. The owners were very helpful and pleasant.
Robert Cheeseley 2021.8.27
We went here on our first trip out with a motor home. The owner of the site was very helpful and gave some great advice. A pizza van came one night which was honestly the best pizza my wife and I have ever tasted. There were also deliveries from local cafe, shop and pubs if wanted. It is a very quiet, friendly site which we will definitely go to again, ensuring we are there for Friday night pizza. Very clean and tidy. Can’t fault.
Derek Williams 2021.8.27
Nice location with a nice pub within walking distance. Pizza van on Friday night was great.
Carolyn Jones 2021.8.23
Adult only site and wonderfully peaceful. All facilities are excellent and location is perfect for getting out and about to Street and surrounding areas. Decided to stay on for a couple more days and found staff to be very accommodating.
Lindsay Everett 2021.8.23
One of the best sites we have stayed at. Location and facilities both excellent. Perfect site if you have a dog, as lots of walks straight from the site. Good size level pitches on grass. Would definitely return.

Had a week long stay here and it was the cleanest camping park we’ve ever stayed at. Super clean showers and toilets and the park itself was spotless. Lovely green space and very well maintained.
Wendy Powell 2021.8.13
Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Long Hazel Park for a long weekend with Jaimee and her dog Sandy. We were there for Jaimee’s folk club meet. I had originally booked via their website, but we changed our minds in the week leading up to our stay, I emailed and asked whether we could bring our motorbikes, “sure came a response, I’ll put down some flat wood for you to put your bike stands on” and “move you to a better pitch where you can park your motorbikes safely”. Never before had I encountered such helpfulness that went beyond the call of duty. Nothing was an issue for Alan and Pamela - owners of the campsite. They made our stay so enjoyable by providing all information about their campsite, where to walk the dog, where to eat, local pubs, fast food options, how to book to have food/drink delivered to their site; a booking website for their showers which was simple to use, even cancelling the shower slot was easy. They even had the wifi and password on their information rather than getting to a campsite and having to hunt for it. All facilities were kept spotlessly clean. I always found the kitchen sink clean and dry, no soap suds left from previous washups. Toilets and showers were spotless. Alan and Pamela had definitely put in a lot of thought on how to keep people safe at this covid time. We will definitely be going back.
Terry and Janey Rozier 2021.8.13
The owner was very informative friendly and helpful. Site was well kept and facilities extremely clean. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and would definitely return when in the area and recommend it.
Philip Pittman 2021.8.12
Ideal for our short break visiting friends.
Brian Williams 2021.8.10
Beautifully kept site, quiet but friendly. Great location and easy to find. The owner Alan could not have been more helpful with ideas of where to go and what to see. He works so hard around the park he deserves a holiday! Only a short stay this time but we will definitely be back soon!
Christina O'Connor 2021.8.9
Great place to stay very well cared for loved it.
Janet Brooks 2021.8.5
An excellent place to chill out with friends for the weekend. We have 2 dogs who were happy and relaxed. Good pitch reasonable size. A nice calm atmosphere. We will definitely be back for a 3rd visit.
Victoria Williams 2021.8.5
Lovely site, quiet, clean and spacious.
Gillian Bevan 2021.7.31
Nice tidy site.
Ian and Alison Taylor 2021.7.29
Very nice adults only site with clean facilities. Friendly owners. Nice to be able to order bread/cakes for delivery to site for following morning. Pizza van on Friday night. Pub within very short distance and another one which delivers food to site. Will return when in area again.
Dawn Britten 2021.7.25
Very clean and tidy. Very friendly owner. Plenty of access to water. Recycling bins well labelled and cleaned daily. No dog bin or dog walking facilities but there was a walk across the road.
Rachel Lynes 2021.7.23
This is family run park. Superbly run. They are extremely friendly and helpful.
Mick Chapple 2021.7.21
Beautiful clean and tidy site. We had a fully serviced pitch which was very good value for money. Friendly staff and very clean and organised. Great base for visiting nearby attractions. Would highly recommend this site.
Alan and Carol Curl 2021.7.18
It’s the 2nd time visited on way back from Cornwall and will be back great place.
Michael and Sally Slater 2021.7.17
New full service pitches are a bonus and demonstrate Alan and Pam's attention to changing market needs.
Glenn and Sherry Diani 2021.7.12
Immaculate shower and toilet block. Quiet adults only park. Friendly owner who is always around if you need him. Can get morning deliveries of pastries or bread etc from local bakery.
Roger Butler 2021.7.2
Initially I booked Long Hazel Park for its close proximity to the Haynes Motor Museum, which I have long wanted to visit. Also as a convenient stop off to break our journey down to Devon and Cornwall. Having stayed two nights we formed a very favourable impression of not only Long Hazel Park itself but also the site owners Alan and Pamela Walton. They maintain the site to a very high standard and justifiably are proud of their site. Some serviced pitches have already been installed with more planned for later this year which all goes to improve the already excellent facilities. The site is adult only and very peaceful. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning soon.
Lionel Macdonald 2021.7.2
Great site, helpful owners, dog friendly, good for walking and all in all first class site, been there several times, and will definitely return when I’m in the area.
Iain and Ann Hall 2021.6.30
Very well maintained with owner cutting the grass regularly. The toilet and shower block is very modern, and kept immaculate and clean.
"ON MY RECENT VISIT I MET WITH ALAN THE HARDWORKING OWNER WHO KINDLY SHOWED ME AROUND. EXTENSIVE WORK HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT IN THE LAST 2 YEARS AND ALAN KINDLY SUPPLIED A LIST OF WORK DONE WHICH I ACKNOWLEDGE AND WILL SEND ON TO HEAD OFFICE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
THE FACILITIES WERE SPOTLESS WITH GOOD DETAIL PAID TO THE CLEANING AND TOP GRADE FIXTURES AND FITTINGS. THE PITCHES WERE WELL MAINTAINED WITH 12 BEING FULLY SERVICED. THE SURROUNDING GROUNDS, TREES, SHRUBS AND FLOWERS WERE ALL LOOKING GOOD.
IN READING THE LIST OF THE ENHANCEMENTS TO THE PARK I HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMMENDING LONG HAZEL PARK A 4 PENNANT GOLD STATUS WITH A QUALITY SCORE OF 90%."

Rebecca Lanham 2021.6.28
After booking we received plenty of information about the site and surrounding area by email. Their website is full of information too. Met by site owner, loved the named placards marking our pitch. Toilet block was spotlessly clean as was the bin area. Each pitch has a ‘private’ grassed area and picnic bench. Only a few campers on site during our stay but looks like plenty of space for everyone when fully booked. The pitch price was very reasonable. We enjoyed the peace so much we stayed an additional night.
Michael Dockerty 2021.6.25
Very clean facilities and very helpful staff. Site was easy to access would definitely stay again.
Mark and Kate Holt 2021.6.24
Cleanest facilities I've ever seen!!
Yvonne Overell 2021.6.21
We have not found a better looked after site than this one anywhere and not just in the UK. Well kept site and spotless bathroom facilities. For us this site is very close to some excellent National Trust sites just a short drive away.
George Arizmendi 2021.6.19
We recently stayed as we were visiting friends that live in Sparkford. Mr & Mrs Walton were excellent hosts. Extremely helpful from booking stage to departure. We will definitely stay again. All the facilities were excellent. Thank you.
Dot Salmon 2021.6.8
We came to Long Hazel for a last holiday before our baby arrives. This was the perfect place for us. So peaceful and surrounded by green! The wash facilities are the best we've ever used. Great showers and so clean. COVID security was dealt with very diligently but never felt invasive. We felt very safe. Great place to explore from.
Tony Smith 2021.6.5
A lovely park and good services at hard standing ie water. Nice atmosphere and look forward to going again. Boogie the dog liked it also.
Neil Morris 2021.6.4
Great place to stay
Sue Tong 2021.6.3
Thanks for a lovely weekend! We were very relaxed and found the site and management excellent. I’ll certainly be back especially now I know you’re open all year.
David West 2021.6.3
We had a very comfortable three night stay on this site. The owners were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The site was beautifully looked after and well managed. Even though it is close to the A303, once on site it was hardly noticeable.
Kayt Pile 2021.6.1
I have returned 5 times now to this little Gem of tranquillity - Pam and Alan are the ultimate hosts, making you feel safe and at home, in their beautiful back garden. The whole place is spotless, well maintained and all covid practices upheld to the highest standard. I highly recommend Long Hazel to all. Many thanks to Alan and Pam.
Sue Charles 2021.6.1
Just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our visit to you over the weekend and how much we appreciated your efforts to keep us safe and COVID healthy. Your site is a real credit to you both and we would certainly come back for a further visit.
Phil Heneghan 2021.5.24
Perfect place to stay if you are visiting Yeovil or the Haynes Museum
Neil Young 2021.5.7
Very nice quiet park. Nice pub close by would recommend and will go back.
Sylvia Kenneth 2021.5.3
Excellent service
Heather Flint 2020.9.28 09:17
Thank you, Pamela and Alan, for providing such a lovely place for us to spend a couple of days. The site is spotless and beautifully looked after. We felt very secure with all the Covid 19 arrangements in place and we would highly recommend a stay here. Our Very Best Wishes to you.
Kerry and Paul Eastman 2020.8.31
Thank you both for a lovely stay at your site and for looking after us with a quiet pitch. We will definitely come back.
Simon Evans 2020.7.19 12:57
Lovely clean and peaceful site with excellent facilities had a lovely stay and definitely be back soon. Owners were really pleasant and always around to to help make your stay enjoyable.
Mandie and Simon 2020.7.7 14:31
Just want to say thank you for a fab stay. As this is our first trip this year, we were nervous but I have to say your campsite exceeded our expectations. You have gone over and above guidelines to ensure our safety. The site is immaculate and we loved it.
Thank you again.
Richard and Kathy Stevens 2020.2.16 14:22
We visited Long Hazel over the Valentine's weekend. We really enjoyed our stay as it was so relaxing. Alan and Pam were always on hand if needed but left us alone so that we could really unwind which is just what we needed. Loved the heart shaped chocolates on arrival! We have already booked our return visit.
Reg and Patricia 2020.2.10 12:23
Just spent a long weekend in our motorhome and despite the bad storms the owners put us in a very sheltered spot where we felt at ease. The facilities are second to none with 16 amp electric hook-up so we were able to use our electric heater without fear of it tripping out. Cosy pubs nearby serving hot food at a reasonable price. We took our dogs with us in the bar without any problems. It was good to see the spring flowers already coming out and we are sure in summer the whole site looks beautiful. We will be back.
Thank you for entering the awards after such a testing and difficult season. It is good to see that you are constantly looking for ways to impove and that you have plans ready for implementation.
Good evidence of working with other local businesses to make visitor experience as good as possible, including local pub takeaways, farm shop and bakery. Major improvements in energy saving, complimentary wifi and (improvements in) accessibility and marketing. Website is full of content, nice images. Facebook (has) regular posts, informative, visitor information and good use of photos.

GOLD AWARD HOLIDAY AND TOURING PARK OF THE YEAR 2021
My congratulations. You deserve it. A silent, quiet campsite, clean and a very friendly owner. My successors are known and I will inform them about your wonderful campsite. I wish you all the luck of the world for a good and successful season.
Huub Fennis, ACSI Inspector commenting on our Gold Award in the Bristol, Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards, April 2021
COME AND STAY WITH US AND TRY OUR ACCOMMODATION FOR YOURSELF:
Positive focus on recycling and accessibility. Good focus on working with local businesses and encouragement for local community to utilise site for visitors. Excellent ideas for local business connection running alongside sustainability projects. There is a strong focus on addressing the environmental impacts. The harvesting of rain and grey water for re-use was evident. Grass cuttings, food waste and all manner of recycling is well signed, encouraged and tidily dealt with in labelled containers. Even the chickens play a part with their waste. The introduction this summer of planting tropical plants has played a part in reducing water usage. Careful planting to encourage wild life has already resulted in increased sightings.

I stayed here for a week as I was attending a course locally at Bruton. It was my first trip out in my new VW campervan and as a single woman I felt very safe as the gates are locked at night and the owners Alan and Pamela live on site. I parked on a hardstanding which was also great as it meant that I could get in and out of my campervan without getting my feet wet. I would rate the park 10/10 and I will definitely be returning.
Grounds are very well maintained, with grass well kept and no litter noted. Hard standing areas are well compacted, with areas being well defined An excellent recycling facility, which was tidy and bins were well labelled, easing the process for the guest.
The ladies and gents toilets / showers have had a major overhaul this year New wet walling in the showers gives a pristine finish. New round mirrors have been added, giving guests a bigger and better viewpoint than before.
An immaculate level of housekeeping noted throughout the park. Cleanliness rating 40/40 100% 5*
85%, 4* graded

We recently stayed at Long Hazel Park for two weeks in our motorhome. We cannot believe that we chose such a fantastic park. The recently renovated shower block is so clean, well lit and warm. I myself am disabled and I used the accessible suite and found it suited my needs perfectly. It is a wet room and had plenty of mirrors so that I could do my make up with a large full length mirror so that I could see myself in my new outfit for a wedding we were attending nearby. We will definitely be returning in the not too distant future as we found the park so convenient to visit lots of attractions in the area. Bruton for us was one of the highlights with the Hauser and Wirth gallery and restaurant. As National Trust members we also visited lots of houses and gardens that are close by including Montacute House and Stourhead. There are several very nice pubs nearby serving food so we found ourselves going out most evenings. Thank you again Alan and Pam and we will see you again very soon!
Keith Rolinson 2019.8.26 20:09
First time at this site but certainly won't be the last had a lovely relaxed weekend away. The site was immaculate as were the facilities made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble.
The new (Reception) layout and internal decoration is very smart and now creates a positive first impression of the Park. Attractive mature specimen trees, mature hedges and seasonal planting with lots more bee and butterfly plantings noted again this year.
Lots of improvements and investment since last visit. Cleanliness rating 40/40 100% 5*

Dear Alan and Pamela,
Just a note to thank you for another pleasant stay (our third year running) this week end at your very comfortable venue. As usual, you looked after us splendidly and unobtrusively, which we appreciate. Thank you again, and hope to see you again next year. Good luck for the rest of the season.
Paul Owen 2019.7.14 14:26
Hi sorry I didn't get to say goodbye but thanks for a lovely weekend from me, Mark, Luke and the rest of the group hope to see you both next year. Regards Paul
Linda and Tim Brown 2019.7.8 14:31
Hi, sorry we missed you yesterday. We had a great time, what a wonderful lodge, it was just perfect, and such a peaceful location. Would like to thankyou for the lovely roses, which put a happy smile on my face. We will be back again soon. Many Thanks to you all Linda and Tim
It was good to visit Long Hazel Park for this routine daytime call visit and many thanks to Alan for his time and assistance in showing me around on this occasion. It was encouraging to hear of the ongoing developments and upgrades since then. All areas of the park appeared in very good condition with well- tended lawns and landscaping and recently planted tress and hedges doing well. The newly refurbished toilet and shower block is another welcome feature and all looking in especially good order at this visit. It was good to have an opportunity to view inside one of the lodges which appeared very well maintained.
We look forward to returning in due course and in the meantime confirm a grading at Four Pennants with an increase in the Merit Score to 88% is now well deserved.
Philip Lamb, The AA Hotel & Hospitality Services 25 June 2019
Safe barrier and gated entrance with CCTV coverage for added security. Spaciously arranged level grass and hard standing pitches clearly defined and weed free. Lots of landscaping done this year including some newly laid beech hedging, tree tidying and hedge cutting tolet in more light.
The new website is very good, easily accessed and navigated and clearly describes the Park and facilities. Very good use of social media now noted. Cleanliness 40/40 100% 5*

This well maintained adults only park was looking very good on my recent visit. I enjoyed a good chat with the hardworking owners Mr and Mrs Walton and Mr Walton kindly showed me around. Despite the recent bad weather the pitches and surrounding areas were really looking good. The toilets and showers were very clean and fresh with good attention to detail paid to the cleaning. The reception area was clean with a laundry room to the rear and a good supply of tourist information leaflets. A pizza van arrives on a Friday night offering an alternative for campers needing a break from cooking. The lodge area was clean and tidy, well screened from the touring park. Mr Walton explained new signage was on its way and this will further enhance this park.
I can confirm that the AA classification remains at 4 Pennant with a slight increase in the quality score to a very good 86%.

Hi both. Although I have left a review, we want to personally thank you for making our stay at Long Hazel so relaxing. Unfortunately we could not track you down as we left (you were obviously busy elsewhere) to express our thanks then. We greatly appreciated your attention to maintaining the highest standards of customer service and keeping the site in such a splendid condition. Keep up the good work We intend returning in the future. Very best wishes Alistair and Carol Cole
Tim Spiers 2018.10.22 17:52
Two friends and I recently camped at Long Hazel Park. We chose it because of its excellent reviews and its location - convenient for the Haynes Motor Museum and the Fleet Air Arm Museum, both of which we wanted to visit. Pamela and Alan made us feel very welcome, and all the facilities were exactly as described and as one would wish. I would wholeheartedly recommend Long Hazel Park to anyone touring in Somerset.
Antony and Jacky Danaos 2018.9.3 08:27
We stayed August bank holiday 2018. Had a lovely stay. The hosts were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Nice location, and near some great spots, and good on-site facilities (clean and in good condition). Thank you Alan & Pamela.
Margaret and Gary Brimming 2018.8.20 07:53
Fantastic site, well equipped with everything you need for a peaceful break. Very clean site and well organised. Local pizza company came to site and the pizzas were delicious. Thanks for all you help and local knowledge, hope to see you again soon.
Reg Cranton 2018.8.13 19:55
Spent the weekend in the Black Forest cabin, specially adapted for persons with disabilities. It is absolutely perfect for anyone with limited mobility/wheelchair user. Nothing was too much trouble for hosts Alan & Pam. Highly recommended!!
Lesley and Richard Dellow 2018.8.5 20:24
We recently spent a very enjoyable weekend, with our friends, at this lovely peaceful site. The facilities were spotless, as was the site itself. The owner, Alan was very friendly and helpful and we will definitely be returning.
Mr & Mrs Alfrey 2018.7.21
Thank you very much. Enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back again.
Ron & Carol Brewer 2018.7.15 13:50
After a calamitous journey down we chilled out in this haven of peace and quiet. What a lovely site, excellent pitches, great facilities and the owner bent over backwards to help us when we needed it. Suffice to say we shall be visiting again under less strenuous circumstances. Thank you. (the Landrover breakdown people)
Carol Mills 2018.7.9 09:37
Lovely peaceful weekend on this site for Yeovilton air day. Could see some aircraft. Easy journey to airfield too. Lovely people staying there gave hubby a lift. Loved the adult only. Very tidy, clean and well organised and super friendly owners. Will be back.
Pearl Cusworth 2018.7.8 17:26
Thank you so much for a lovely weekend stay at Long Hazel Park. We would like to compliment you on your hospitality, grounds, shower block, and everything, just such a beautiful place. Pizza was beautiful too. Thank you... hopefully visit again.
Michelle Ballard 2018.7.5 18:05
We were looking for an adult campsite to relax for a weekend with friends. Was a fantastic friendly campsite with beautiful grounds, great facilities, great location, owner was very welcoming and helpful. We will definitely come back again soon.
Adrian Monks 2018.6.31 17:01
Just spent 7 days at this excellent site. Campsites don't come much better than this. Spotless facilities, excellent owners. The Red Lion and Kingsdown pub worth visiting and the farm shop just through Sparkford. Don't miss Friday night pizzas. Ice cream van calls as well. Fleet Air Arm Museum very good.
Refuse points and recycling all neat and tidy. A huge credit to the family. Tourist Information has been tidied this year and presents well with up to date leaflets and OS map.
A lot of new soundproof fencing has been erected to cut down road noise. Attractive mature specimen trees, mature hedges and seasonal plantings. New herb planters noted this year. 8 new picnic tables. Cleanliness 40/40 100% 5*

Thank you for providing lovely clean and tidy facilities in peaceful surroundings! We will definitely be back. Happy New Year!
The overall park was looking in very good condition throughout, all very neat and tidy – it’s a small adults-only park that is always very well maintained, mainly by Mr Walton himself. The facility block was fresh and very clean and is well positioned in the centre of the park but screened by hedges – a very good arrangement. The lodge area is also well screened from the touring park by a tall hedge (being cut at time of inspection). Lodges are available to buy or hire. There’s a good choice of hardstandings, some capable of taking large RV’s. A really excellent adult’s only park and it is confirmed that the AA classification remains at 4 Pennant with a good quality score of 85%.

Martin & Sheila from West Yorkshire 2017.11.3 11:25
Stayed at this lovely site for 3 nights late October 2017! What a beautiful little oasis, so well looked after by Alan who is a lovely gentleman! Pitches are large and flat, the facilities are kept in a super condition. The position is great whether passing through for a night or a longer stay to visit the area which is lovely! Thank you Alan and Family, we shall pass by again! Martin & Sheila
This small park was looking excellent throughout and despite the very wet recent weather the grass was looking good. The attention to detail on this park is excellent and it was noticed that all hardstanding pitches are completely weed free, plus areas of grass had been scarified and seeded and now looked really good.
· The ladies showers have had the tiles regrouted and now look excellent – it is planned to do the same in the gents.
· New flooring has been put into the reception building – which will be easy to clean and looks much better.
· New picnic tables and some restored.
· New hair dryer in ladies
The whole park is exceptionally clean and tidy and has the added advantage of having two lodges available for hire – one of which has been upgraded with a new walk in shower etc. A really excellent adults only park and it is confirmed that the AA classification remains at 4 Pennant with a slightly increased quality score of 85%.

We stayed at this lovely site for a few weeks at the end of Jan/Feb 2016, prior to starting work. We were welcomed by the owner Alan on arrival, the toilets and site are kept clean and tidy. A short walk from the site approximately 5 mins, is the local pub the Sparkford Inn, which has a new management team, the pub is being refurbished, the staff are friendly and welcoming, the beer is perfect and the food is spot on, ignore all previous reports regarding the pub. We recommend a stay at Long Hazel, being close to many attractions, thank you Alan and Pamela.
Gill & Stan Stocker 2015.7.22 07:38
We couldn't have chosen a better place for our first visit to a campsite, in our five day old motorhome. Alan was extremely helpful, showing us all the facilities, and then giving us a choice of pitches, to choose from. The pitch we chose was closest to the A303, but the road noise was minimal, if non existent. The layout of the site is excellent, and it is obvious that a lot of care and attention has been given to every aspect. When we told fellow campers that this was our first time their advice filled three pages of notepaper. As one seasoned camper said to us "we are not strangers, but new friends to be made". We will return in September.
Geoff Whelby 2017.7.26 14:26
Beautiful site and the owners are very helpful and welcoming. Some have mentioned some road noise which we didn't notice at all. Immaculately clean throughout and we would highly recommend this site. Thank you for being so helpful and for a lovely stay.
Russ Porteous 2017.7.22 21:28
A nice warm welcome on arrival (despite the torrential July rain). Was unable to book a cab to a function at the Haynes Museum and was given a lift by Alan which I felt was above and beyond the level of service expected from campsite owners. Would love to stay again one day.
Lisa Watkins 2017.7.13 20:31
Fabulous Campsite. Very friendly owner. Will definitely stay again. Stayed in June 2017 x
John and Pauline Dennis 2017.7.10 17.27
Very nice welcome when we arrived. Well looked after site not too big which we appreciated and most of all very quiet. We stayed for 3 nights and went to the air day which was only 2m away so perfect. Thank you for keeping a lovely site
Alan and Mark Charlton 2017.7.9 20:38
Nice to have met you both this weekend. Thank you for a very pleasant short stay at your very nice park. We congratulate you on the way you run things. We both felt very comfortable and welcome in good quiet surroundings. We are now both back in our respective homes in Kent but hope one day to return. Good luck for the rest of the season. All good wishes.

Beautifully managed touring park with lovely trees and wildlife. Enjoyed our stay.
Michael and Rhodanne 2017.5.21 15:21
We stayed 5 delightful nights at this excellent Caravan Park. The facilities were second to none and the welcome could not be matched. We were close to many NT destinations which we visited. Thank you for the welcome and care while we were with you.
Kath Martin 2017.5.15 14:30
Stayed here for 7 nights from 7th May 2017. Warm welcome, from owner Alan, who was very informative about the site and the history of the surrounding area. Alan and Pam put in a lot of hard work to keep the site spotless and pristine. Five minutes walk into High Street to a bus stop either to Shepton Mallet or Yeovil. From Yeovil buses onwards to Wells and other places. Ideal if in a motorhome or walking holiday. Makes it easy to reach parts of Monarch's Way and the Leyland Way. Scenery beautiful and breathtaking views helped by the lovely weather we had. Well worth a stay.
Stephanie & Martyn Hayne 2016.7.26 12:51
We are due back to this lovely campsite soon, having stayed here twice previously. A lovely level site with spotless toilets. Last year we stayed here because it offered a disabled facility that was excellent. I am also glad to read in the reviews that the pub down the road is being refurbished, look forward to visiting there.
The park had been virtually full over the past weekend following the Yeovilton Air Show, which was very good. The park was looking well up to its usual high standard and the attention to detail is really very good, and both grass and hedges looked neat and tidy. The toilet and shower block was very clean and fresh. It was noted that extra LED lighting had been added. There are four seasonal caravans on site but all were neat and tidy. There are also two lodges available for hire.
Overall an excellent adults-only park and it is confirmed that the AA classification remains at 4 Pennant with a high quality score of 84%.

Richard & Christine Austen 2015.7.6 10:41
We stayed at this glorious site for two weeks at the beginning of June. It is quite clear that the owners, Alan and Pam, take great pride in maintaining the grounds and full facilities to the highest standards. The magnificent countryside of Somerset and Dorset is right on the doorstep and Alan has a wealth of local knowledge on hand. We didn't waste a second on this holiday. We would highly recommend the site - this will be the only destination for us when visiting the area, again. Best regards to you both.
Janette Salt 2015.5.30 09:08
Stayed her last week for just one night as we were en route to Devon, it was beautiful, facilities were faultless, clean and well maintained. I would recommend this site to all friends and family. Thank you very much for such a lovely stay
Jean Cragg 2015.5.19 19:26
I stayed here for three night recently and just wanted to thank Alan and Pam for making me feel so welcome. The site and the facilities are immaculate and the welcome is warm, helpful and friendly. I would recommend this site to anyone wanting a peaceful haven which is still close to the A303, but very quiet and has lots of local attractions nearby. I visited the Fleet Air Arm Museum and the Haynes Motor Museum, both of which are close by.
Ken & Wendy Wilkinson 2015.1.27 16:27
We stayed at Long Hazel in October for the first time - and certainly not the last. This is an extremely clean site all round, well laid out, and the owners are most welcoming and friendly. It is pleasing to see such good recycling facilities too. It is also a very peaceful site which is good to find these days. As another reviewer said - 'it is a gem of a site'. For us it is ideal, as it is close to Yeovil where my wife's 94 year old mother lives, and also is perfect for visiting the National Trust at Stourhead (a favourite of ours), amongst other local attractions. We are looking forward very much to our return in April, which we have just booked!
Steve 2015.1.11 10:03
My wife and I have just returned from an eight night stay at Long Hazel Park. We have a fifth wheel tourer and so always check with site owners before booking, site owner Alan assured us we'd be fine bringing our fifth wheel.
The site is adults only which suited us fine. As soon as we arrived through the gates Alan greeted us and showed us to our pitch. The pitch was more than big enough for our rig, and we were soon set up. We arrived on the 27th of December originally for seven nights and into the new year but, we decided to stay an extra night as were having such a nice time. The park is spotless and very well kept, and is a credit to the owners Pamela and Alan, the location of the park allowed us to use it as a base to do our daily visits from. We went to Yeovil, Lyme Regis, Burnham on Sea, Cheddar Gorge, and Wiltshire amongst other places, so the location suited us as it's fairly central to many attractions.
There is a pub very close by which is under new management, and there are improvements planned, we spent New Years Eve there and had a nice time, and only a very short walk back to Long Hazel. I have seen in some of the reviews that traffic from the A303 can be heard at the park, but in all honesty it wasn't an issue for my wife or myself, we slept very sound every night. There is also a handy Spar shop and McDonalds at the petrol station very close by, and I can recommend the fresh free range eggs that Alan sells from his own chickens at Long Hazel, the eggs are superb! Pamela and Alan made our stay very enjoyable, and we will definitely be going back in the future, and we recommend this site to everybody without hesitation. Thanks very much Pamela and Alan for your hospitality. Regards Steve and Christine
