This ‘secret’ vineyard is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural beauty in the foothills of the Quantock Hills.

It’s not such a secret that Secret Valley is a wonderful place to go glamping. It’s great for families because children love it here and the adults get to try the wine. You can relax and admire the view of the vines from your vineyard wigwam as you sip a glass.

It’s also a popular spot for stag and hen parties wanting a more rural experience.

Fox terrier, Mr Hendricks expert dog friendly days out Somerset

I’m allowed in the wigwam paddock (not the other accommodation options). I must be tethered in the paddock and kept on a lead around the site. There are great walks around the farm where you can let me off the lead.
