Axminster Camping and Touring Van sites

Camping sites, touring caravan parks, campgrounds, trailer parks in Axminster.

A lovely old market town surrounded by stunning scenery in the valley of the River Axe, Axminster's name is now a byword for high quality carpets. The weaver Thomas Whitty made hand-knotted carpets for wealthy clients, initially employing his own daughters to do the work, created the industry in the mid-18th century. The industry was successfully revived, in a less exclusive form, in the 1930s.

The oldest building here is the 13th century Church of St Mary the Virgin. It boasts gargoyles, a Tudor porch, an effigy dated to the 12th century and, of course, a magnificent Axminster carpet. Equally, the local museum has a section devoted to local carpet making as well as the town's Saxon origins.

Nearby Forde Abbey dates to the early 12th century and was an important Cistercian monastery.

This section includes campsites (campgrounds) for tents and parks for touring caravans, motorhomes, campervans in Axminster, Exeter & East Devon.
