We have a range of touring pitches set around our pretty saltwater lake.
Uphill Wharf Campsite is a perfect location to base yourself to enjoy the very best of Somerset.
All of our 25 lakeside pitches come with hardstanding and EHU.
Our grass overflow field is available for motorhomes and campervans in the Summer months too (no EHU).
Please note we are a touring site only, and we do not offer seasonal pitches.
Sorry, no tents.
Free use of the lake for non-motorised craft for all campsite users.
Our Marine Centre and boatyard has much to offer, including river moorings, pontoon docks, private slipway, hoist, all year boat storage and pretty boating lake.
Our pontoons are due to be replaced with new galvanised platforms making access to your craft more pleasant.
New river moorings are due to be installed late 2021.
Explore stunning Somerset and the vast Weston beach from our cosy site.
