Friendly, well maintained site.

Friendly staff on arrival and large, nicely spaced pitches. Facilities are well maintained and designed. The breakfast cafe, shop and fire baskets are thoughtful extras that add to the experience. This is a site that cares about its guests.

Great welcome and intro to the site

Great welcome and intro to the site. I was camping alone with a 6 and a 3 year old and the part we were in was peaceful in the evenings. The large showers and toilet cubicles were brilliant for young kids. We could all go in the shower room together and I was able to wash them and dry them with plenty of space and keep us in the same area. The kids also enjoyed the play area and climbing on the old vehicles. All in all a great stay and will come again and hopefully bring others with me.

Lovely camp

Lovely camp. Well structured and nice and clean abundant facilities. Good for all types of campers from families to those who prefer a bit more glamping or quiet tent camping.
My only thing we would have preferred is a different type of fire pit as they use old washing machine drums, great for general fire and heat. Although not great for if you are planning to cook over the fire, as the fire cannot sit centrally in the drum.

lovely stay

lovely stay. helpful friendly staff. Most of the toilets were shut. I understand that it was off peak but it did make the stay other than perfect.

Good to hear you found our team helpful. 12 toilets and 12 showers were open all weekend? Just wish you’d have spoken to one of our helpful team if you found that wasn’t enough and we’d have jumped right on it.

Lovely well equipped site

Lovely well equipped site. Great stay helped by the fantastic weather that week.
Suggest a warning that there is no hot water in the toilets as the temptation is to run the tap and wait for it to become hot, thereby wasting water.

Loved it here

Loved it here! Felt very safe.
I came here solo with my dog, we were welcomed and shown around, felt incredibly safe and relaxed throughout my stay and will definitely come back!

Camp was very clean and had a proper toilet and shower block.

Pizza truck on site for my friday dinner, this was delicious.

Stayed here early May 2025

Stayed here early May 2025 , had a choice of quiet/louder pitch . Chose the quiet option and was directed to pitch up wherever i liked . The plot i chose was perfect , its a pitch what-you-bring so no extras added on .
The toilets and showers were probably the best ive experienced on a camp site , well done .
The walk into Cheddar was a leisurely 15mins , all off the main road .Plenty of electric hook ups available should you require , along with on site breakfast unit, a small outside bar and a pop-up burger/pizza tent.
The price was £33 for 2 nights(May 2025) as a solo traveller in a campervan with awning , great value in my opinion.

Great, friendly site, excellent facilities

We arrived at the site, not knowing what to expect. We were greeted at the check in by a very friendly member of the team. He welcomed us and issued us with a bucket for our recycling and bags for non recyclable rubbish. We were then led to our pitch, which was very spacious. In the evening a buggy came round selling fire kits to enable a camp fire, which was a great idea. There are plenty of toilets and showers on site, all of which were clean and tidy. The site itself is perfectly located for walking around Cheddar and the surrounding area. We couldn't fault our visit and will definitely be visiting again.

Lovely spacious site.

We’ve been to this site a few times now and we’ve always been happy with it. A shade pricey on the grass pitch (no electric) pitch. Also not a lover for paying for the recycling bucket as we’re always going to recycle in the correct way. That said it was a lovely, clean friendly site with very helpful staff. Many thanks.
