Temple Cloud with Cameley is a small, largely rural civil parish in Bath and North East Somerset, England, made up chiefly of the villages of Temple Cloud and Cameley. It sits between Bristol and Bath on the edge of the Somerset countryside and within easy reach of the Mendip Hills, so it combines countryside views with convenient commuting links to nearby cities.
The parish has a long rural history - the "Temple" element of the name hints at medieval associations - and retains plenty of traditional stone buildings, a parish church presence and small local businesses. Today its economy is a mix of farming, cottage enterprises and commuter households, and community life centres on village halls, local clubs and occasional events that preserve the area's quiet, village character.
