Sports Tours & Trips in Somerset 

Bring your whole team together.

​

Looking for somewhere different for your next sports tour, team trip or club weekend?

​

At Lydeard Farm, your team can stay together in a private countryside setting in the Quantock Hills, Somerset. With accommodation for groups of 8–56 guests, plenty of outdoor space and exclusive use of the site, it’s an ideal base for sports clubs, school teams, university teams and youth groups.

​

Whether you’re travelling for a tournament, training weekend, club tour or simply want to spend some time together away from home, we’ve got the space and facilities to make it work.

​

Why stay at a holiday park and share with other clubs when you can have the whole place to yourself including a grass practice area. 

​

Your team. Your own space

Your team. Your own space.

​

Forget splitting your group between different hotel rooms or trying to keep everyone together in a busy hotel.

​

You can choose to stay in lodges, camp or both. Prices from £32 per person per night. 

​

You can cook and eat together, relax after a day’s competition, organise team activities and make use of the outdoor space—all without sharing the site with another group.

More than just a place to stay

A sports tour is about more than the match.

It’s about the team travelling together, eating together, celebrating together and getting to know each other away from the pitch.

After a busy day, your team can return to Lydeard Farm, cook together, enjoy a BBQ, sit around the campfire or simply relax in the countryside.

There’s no need to worry about keeping everyone together across several hotel rooms.

One team. One place. Plenty of space.

 

Accommodation for your whole squad

We have five individual lodges that can accommodate groups from 8 up to 56 people.

Depending on your group size, we can allocate the lodges to give your team the space it needs.

Each lodge provides a comfortable base for your players, coaches and supporters, while the communal facilities give everyone somewhere to come together.

​

A great base for a sports weekend

Lydeard Farm is surrounded by the countryside of the Quantock Hills, while being within easy reach of Taunton and the M5. You will various sports clubs and teams in Bridgwater, Taunton, Burnham On Sea, Minehead. 

​

That makes it a practical base for teams travelling to competitions and sporting events across Somerset and the wider South West.

​

If you’re planning a tournament or sports tour, we’re happy to discuss your requirements and help you work out whether Lydeard Farm is suitable for your group.

We can also accommodate golf groups playing locally at Enmore Park Golf Course, 2 miles away.
