Petruth Paddocks
About
Petruth Paddocks invites visitors to escape the press‑and‑browser chaos of modern life into a relaxed, free‑range camping haven in the Mendip Hills. The ‘live‑and‑let‑live’ philosophy means there are no strict rules – kids can play in the hedges, campfires are encouraged, pets are welcome, and the whole camp feels like a friendly neighbourhood rather than a rigid campsite. Pitch types cover everything from shepherds huts and powered bell tents to Gypsy bowtops, an American school bus, a yellow submarine‑style space and fields, catering to all budgets and group sizes. On‑site amenities include toilets, showers, a small food area, Wi‑Fi, and a fire‑pit area, making it suitable for families, couples, solo travellers, and even organised groups. Visitors praise the warmth of the staff, the easy‑going atmosphere, and the stunning natural scenery, while a few mention that powered pitches can be limited during busy periods. The site’s award‑winning status, repeated recognition by TripAdvisor and PitchUp, and its top‑tier free‑range reputation make Petruth Paddocks a must‑visit for anyone longing for a low‑stress, budget‑friendly escape.
