About Greenacres Camping
This camping and touring site is perfect for families and is located on the outskirts of North Wootton Village, offering breathtaking views of Glastonbury Tor. It's conveniently located just a 10 minute drive away from the towns of Glastonbury, Wells, and Shepton Mallet, making it an ideal base for exploring the best of Somerset. The site offers spacious and flat grass pitches that are suitable for any tent or tourer. You can choose between non electric or 16 amp electric pitches, and once you've set up camp, you can relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Spread across four and a half acres, this dog free site has a huge field that's safe for children to run around in while parents can relax. There's even a children's playground, and if the weather isn't great, a library of board games and books is available. The site is close to nature reserves such as RSPB Ham Wall and Avalon Marshes, which means that the wildlife is abundant here. Bike hire is also available, so you can explore the many stunning cycle trails throughout the area. Campfires are welcome on this site, and you can even hire fire pits to make your camping experience even more enjoyable.
The site is open from 24th May - 1st June, 7th - 9th June, 22nd - 2nd July and 19th July - 3rd September.
Onsite you'll find a shower and toilet facility block, with spacious fields for the children to run and play. Washing up facilities and shared fridge-freezers are also available. There's a library of books and puzzles to choose from, too, as well as cycle and firepit hire. Reception offers ice creams for sale, and batteries and Calor and Camping Gaz are able to be recharged/filled onsite.
There is a Morissons in Wells just a short ten minute drive away, and the local pub, The Crossways, is just a three minute drive, 15 minute walk away - or a gentle bike ride.

Lovely relaxed site, flat grassy field. Lots of quiet roads locally, ideal for cycling. I hired a bike and visited Glastonbury town and the Tor. Shower and toilet facilities are a little bit, shall we say, rustic? But clean and functional, hot showers and has a dish washing area. You can hire fire pits and buy kindling and logs. Owners were lovely, very helpful and I had a lovely stay.

We had a wonderful stay here. The location is very rural, away from busy roads, light and noise, but still within easy distance of Glastonbury, Wells and Shepton Mallet, as well as other attractions like Wookey Hole, Longleat and Cheddar Gorge. It's very quiet and family friendly, the toilets, showers and washing up facilities are ideal and well maintained. Provision of fridges, freezer and a microwave (for sterilising bottles) is something that really stood out for us. The owners are very friendly, happy to chat and give tips for places to visit, walk and see. We also loaned a fire pit from them for the duration of our stay with logs and firelighters included for a very reasonable price. If we could have stayed longer we absolutely would have!
