Sunny Hill Campsite, Riding Gate, Wincanton, Somerset

Situated on the border of Somerset and Dorset, Sunny Hill Campsite is an independent camping haven set in peaceful rural surroundings. While it feels wonderfully secluded, it remains within easy reach of a wide range of nearby attractions.

Camping

The campsite offers three electric hook-up hardstanding pitches and two grass pitches with electric hook-up, all operating on a pre-payment system.

Yurts & Bell Tents

Guests can choose from a variety of glamping options to suit their preferences. The impressive 18ft fully insulated yurt provides year-round comfort and comfortably sleeps up to six people. During the summer months, fully equipped bell tents and yurts offer a stylish and relaxed glamping experience.

Shepherd’s Hut

The charming shepherd’s hut provides a cosy and memorable stay. It features a Belfast sink, a spacious king-size bunk bed, two single beds, an undercounter fridge and an electric heater. Outside, guests can enjoy a log-fuelled hot tub and beautiful hillside views, offering a tranquil setting despite being conveniently close to the A303. The hut is ideally located for exploring Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire. Please note, pets and infants are not permitted in the shepherd’s hut.

Fire pits are available on site, with logs and firelighters supplied for £10, available to purchase from the on-site shop.
