Jimna Base Camp

Jimna Base Camp functions as a central point for visitors exploring the northern Somerset region. The facility occupies the site of a former primary school and provides wide-open spaces for caravans, camper trailers, and traditional camping. Guests have access to basic amenities including toilets, showers, and a communal kitchen area. The grounds are suitable for large groups and individual travellers looking for a quiet environment away from major coastal tourist hubs. Situated in the suburb of Jimna, the site serves as a gateway to the Conondale Range. Visitors often travel to the area to view the Jimna Fire Tower, which stands as a significant local landmark. The surrounding landscape features multiple forestry tracks suitable for four-wheel driving and mountain biking. The location offers a high-altitude climate that remains cooler than the surrounding lowlands during summer months, making it a functional base for outdoor activities year-round.
