10 reviews from guests who stayed at Bramley at Apple Tree Glamping
We absolutely loved our time at Apple Tree - our cabin was better than we expected! The welcome note and drink were a lovely touch. The hot tub and fire pit were excellent - even though we were sandwiched between two cabins, we still felt we had privacy to enjoy the hot tub and views. Matthew was a great host and was nice for him to drop by and check how we were doing. The perfect home away from home - would highly recommend!
The best weekend getaway we’ve had in ages from start to finish! The location is perfect, pods are spotless and everything you needed was available. The grounds are stunning and so peaceful. Can’t wait to stay again.
Fantastic time away with my Mrs, honestly the break was needed and that was all down to Apple tree glamping, would defo come here again! The owner is great too.
We had a fantastic weekend at Apple Tree Glamping. The location was beautiful, easy to find and despite being so close to others units, (and the farm animals!) felt very private. The unit itself was clean, warm and comfortable, and the hot tub was a wonderful way to watch the sunset, although be warned; if you want to use it straightaway it is worth paying for the team to set it up for your arrival, as it took a few hours for the wood burning stove to heat the water before we could use it. If you're looking for a quiet peaceful, base to explore Somerset, Apple Tree Glamping is it.
Couldn’t recommend more!! Pods were lovely and clean, in a fabulous area. Mat and his family were lovely. Great value for money will definitely be back.
We had a lovely stay at Apple Tree Glamping. The pod was comfortable and clean, and the farm is absolutely beautiful. It's a great location, just a short drive to Wells, Wookey Hole etc. Matt was a great host, very friendly and always available to answer any questions. Would highly recommend ATG!
Really lovely weekend with my partner only problem is we could not get the hot tub to heat up but as we were only there for the weekend we weren’t that fussed, other than that it was a beautiful setting and lovely grounds would definitely go back.
Booked this place for me and my boyfriend for my 23rd birthday and we absolutely loved it! I would recommend booking directly with them, we added the hamper option which provided us enough breakfast to last our entire trip (added this via an option along with rose petals on the bed! The owners Matt and Vicky also have a farm across from the river and you can go over, look around and meet all of the animals. We also met Matt and Vicky they were lovely, very friendly and sociable which made us feel really relaxed! Hot tub was amazing, if you enjoy star gazing this place has no light pollution so it’s a beautiful sky at night. They also provided loads of information in your pod about the area and places to visit! Overall we loved it! We will be back.
Amazing location fabulously presented prompt helpful friendly response to any questions if I could afford it I would stay every weekend.
Lovely long weekend break away at Apple Tree Glamping. The glamping pod was clean and had everything we needed including cooking utensils, firefighters for the BBQ and wood for the wood fired hot tub. The site was lovely and peaceful with only 5 pods in total and had a lovely view out over the Mendip Hills. Our dog loved to potter around by the little river on the site and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the decking or in the hot tub late into the evening. The site owners were more than happy to chat if they saw you about and were also able to recommend local places to visit or eat. We even got some freshly laid eggs from the resident hens! Would definitely visit again!

A famous Somerset hill topped by a medieval tower, with wide views across the Levels and beyond.
Glastonbury Tor is a conical hill rising from the Somerset Levels, topped by the roofless 15th-century tower of St Michael's Church. Excavations at the summit revealed the plans of two earlier churches on the site.
Tip: There is no parking at the Tor itself, so use the nearest fee-paying car park at Draper and Co on Chilkwell Street and walk, and keep your dog on a lead because sheep graze here.
