    Beautiful place to spend the night. Certainly puddly/muddy after all the rain but offered a quiet night's sleep and beautiful walks. Locals seem tolerant of vans if parked respectfully.

    What a lovely spot! I was the only one there on a rainy December night, quiet nights sleep apart from the raindrops from the tree above. Muddy but beautiful walk along the canal with the dog in the morning. No bin so please take rubbish with you. Would definitely use again if in the area :)

    Really nice, cosy place. Saturday night, no concerns or disturbances. Of course, as you would expect at this time of year, the area was full of large puddles… as this is a ‘natural’ parking area. Great by the canal for a morning stroll.

    Great little overnight stop. About 3 miles of single track road with passing places from the M5. A few cars with dog walkers and fishermen when we arrived but all left when it got dark. Please respect this stopover. Park sensible to allow locals access. Take litter away with you. We all need to treat these places with respect or we will lose them like so many others

    Super quiet park up. We got here in the dark, and it wasn’t too difficult to find, Apple Maps takes you to the exact point of the parking. No one else around really while we were there.

    lovely little spotlight next to the canal, small apple and pear orchard behind, bunkers all down the canal, beautiful walks with the dog, level carpark can fit a few vans and cars. please take all rubbish ect with you...lots of fisherman and dog walkers come after 6.30ish am.

    Lovely quiet spot- bit difficult to find in the dark . Look for the little wood bridge over the canal, turn sharp left in front of the cottage on your left and the car park is about 5m on your left. Stopped one night. Very quiet except for the odd train. Bird song to keep you company. Beautiful canal for walking along

    Great spot by the canal. Lovely and quiet with the occasional train but they didn’t disturb us. No litter and no one else there overnight. A few fishermen in the morning but plenty of space for everyone. The road to the car park is mainly single track with passing places but quite doable. The nearest pub is about a 30 min walk away along the canal.

    Stunning stop over next to canal perfect for walks and fishing

    We stayed here last Saturday night and were the only ones. It is a great location, as it’s immediately beside the canal and perfect to walk the dogs in the morning. The only downside was that there are train lines very close by. You could hear them running until midnight and from 8 am. We did do a mini litter pick before we left

    This is the only car park on the Bridgwater and Taunton canal that doesn't get locked at 6pm or something, so if you want to walk the dogs in the evening it's the only hope. If you keep parking here they'll probably put a gate on this one too.

    Lovely location tucked away just beside canal, however once another van left. We moved to where they were as was more hidden parking space. They came back and accused us of steeling as they lost something in the middle of the night. And though we took it as we parked where they were before leaving. Getting very angry and abusive. So we moved on before they came back.

    Right next to tue canal. Kayaking entry point opposite side of the hedge. it seems kids and aduots are throwing a lot of litter about so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE irf you stay here pick up qny litter you see and dispose of it. i dont think the litter is vanlifers but dont give people an excuse to complain and no overnight camping signs go up.

    Quiet but quite clearly not on the weekend. Rubbish left strewn around, mostly beer bottles and cans. Good for a stop over on route North/South though.
