Finding a truly quiet spot can feel difficult. However, our stay at old oaks touring park made that search very easy. This adults-only site near Glastonbury offers peace, space, and a polished feel from arrival. It also gives you beautiful Somerset views and a real sense of calm. If you enjoyed our previous site review, you can also read that blog here. For us, old oaks touring park was one of the most relaxing stays we have had in a caravan.
A Warm Welcome to Somerset
From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt calm and well organised. The welcome felt friendly, helpful, and never rushed. Moreover, the site looked immaculate from the entrance onward. Flower beds, neat hedging, and tidy roads created a brilliant first impression. Because the park is adults-only, everything feels quieter and more relaxed. As a result, you can settle in without the usual noise of a busy family site.
Somerset adds even more charm to the stay. The surrounding countryside feels open, green, and full of character. Better still, you can spot Glastonbury Tor from parts of the park. Therefore, the view gives the whole site a special backdrop. We also liked how peaceful it stayed throughout the day. People moved around quietly, and the whole place felt respectful and easygoing.
Old Oaks Touring Park: Discovering Pitch Perfection
Pitch quality is one of the biggest strengths at old oaks touring park. The pitches are spacious, level, and thoughtfully laid out. Many have hedging between them, and that adds welcome privacy. As a result, you never feel packed in. We had plenty of room for the caravan and outdoor setup. Furthermore, access was easy, which always helps after a travel day.
The site offers several pitch options, so different setups are well catered for. We were especially impressed by how clean and well kept every area looked. Grounds staff clearly take pride in the place. In addition, the hardstanding felt solid and practical in wet or dry weather.

Five-Star Facilities and Amenities
Facilities at old oaks touring park are close to outstanding. The washrooms feel modern, warm, and genuinely luxurious. In addition, the underfloor heating makes a big difference on colder mornings. Showers are spacious, and the whole block stays spotless. We noticed the high standard straight away, and it stayed consistent during our visit.
The on-site shop is another real highlight. It stocks useful essentials and a nice range of local products. We found local cider, fresh items, and plenty of bits that made the stay easier. There is also a fishing lake on site, and it adds another peaceful feature. Dog owners are well looked after too, thanks to the dedicated dog exercise field. However, the only thing missing is an on-site bar. That is why the facilities score stops just short of full marks.
Exploring the Local Area Near Glastonbury
This part of Somerset gives you plenty to do without driving far. A visit to Glastonbury Tor is a must. The views from the top are worth the climb. You can also explore more about the site itself on the Old Oaks website. In addition, Old Oaks is part of Tranquil Parks, which suits its peaceful style perfectly.
Glastonbury has plenty of character, with independent shops and a unique atmosphere. Wells is also within easy reach for a longer day out. However, we found the site itself so relaxing that it was tempting to stay put. Consequently, the Tor views, fishing lake, and quiet atmosphere give you plenty to enjoy nearby.
Why This Site Leads the Way
What makes old oaks touring park stand out is how complete the experience feels. The site is peaceful, but it never feels dull. It is polished, but still welcoming. Every detail seems designed to make your stay easier and more enjoyable. That includes the clean facilities, quality pitches, and calm adults-only setting.
Even so, the site still feels warm rather than corporate. The views of the Tor add character. Moreover, the local shop adds a Somerset touch. The dog field and fishing lake give the park even more appeal. While the missing bar is worth noting, it barely affects the overall stay. For us, this is a site that gets almost everything right.
Old Oaks Touring Park Review: Final Thoughts
Our stay at old oaks touring park lived up to its reputation. It combines quiet surroundings with excellent standards across the board. However, the adults-only setup will not suit everyone, but it was perfect for the peaceful break we wanted. Add in the Tor views, luxury washrooms, and spacious pitches, and you get a site that is easy to recommend.
If you want a Somerset base that feels calm and premium, this site is hard to beat. We left feeling properly rested, which says a lot. Old Oaks offers quality in all the right places, and it does so without losing its friendly feel.
