Overview

Arnie the Army Truck is a converted military vehicle turned self-contained holiday stay in West Hatch, Somerset. The unit includes a king-size bed, kitchenette, private bathroom and outdoor dining area with a BBQ/firepit.

The site offers on-site parking, Wi‑Fi and is listed as pet-friendly, making it a practical rural base for exploring Taunton, Exmoor and nearby market towns.

What to Expect

Step inside a fully converted army truck fitted as a compact cottage: a raised king-size bed, fitted kitchen, shower room and a small seating area. Expect close-up rural views, an outdoor dining area and a firepit or BBQ for evenings.

What you'll do:

  • Sleep on a raised king-size bed inside a well-equipped truck conversion.
  • Use the kitchenette (hob, fridge) and eat outdoors at the private picnic/BBQ area.
  • Take short drives to Taunton (≈15–20 minutes) or day-trip to Exmoor and the Quantocks.
  • Bring pets if needed; property is listed as pet-friendly.

Best way to experience it:
Arrive by car (on-site parking available), plan evening meals around the outdoor fire/BBQ, and use the truck as a quiet base for nearby walks and market towns rather than as a full-service hotel.
