Access
Follow the brown and white camping signs to the entrance of Batcombe Vale Farm, marked by wooden signs on either side of the drive.
From here, a quarter-mile, single-track lane winds down into the valley, with beautiful views across the Somerset countryside. The lane is steep in places, so please take your time.
