We had the best time at the Petruth paddocks!
We had the best time at the Petruth paddocks! Camp spot was perfect for a walk around cheddar gorge! Excellent place, came with a friend this time will certainly be bringing the kids back!
Friendly & informative owners
Friendly & informative owners, great location with clean & plentiful facilities.
what a fabulous place
what a fabulouse place was greeted by the lovely abbey and shown to my pitch services were amazing too with everything nearby quiet and peaceful can’t wait to return 🤓
Lovely peaceful site
Great customer service and a lovely site.
We were met at reception and got a briefing on the site set up and where everything was located. We were then free to park up wherever suited us. The site was fairly empty so we had plenty of choice. Bought a fire pit from site and was supplied a large bag of kindling and logs, along with a bundle of newspaper and a fire lighter. The 4G signal strength on site is excellent.
Owner called me a couple of nights before we stayed to check that we didn't want to cancel because of the cold weather forecast, which I thought was excellent. She warned us that the water may need to be shut off overnight so the pipes didn't freeze, but that there would still be a toilet available. So glad we went ahead. The sky was clear and you could see all the stars as the site is beautifully dark - the lights on the roadway were great (set into the ground so no light pollution). The only real evidence of the cold that I saw was in the showers where there was an icicle on the tap and the ceiling was covered in ice drops. Easily cleared with the squeegee supplied. Overall, we had a fabulous time and will be back when the weather is warmer!

Absolutely fantastic site
Absolutely fantastic site. This is my second time here and it did not disappoint. Laid back and relaxed. Met on arrival by Jules who could not be more welcoming and accommodating. Toilet facilities amazing, well kept. Would definitely recommend this site to family and friends.
Well thought-out site with a dedicated team.
Helpful team, good facilities and logical signage all contributed to a restful stay. The hands-on management in evidence gave re-assurance for a future family visit. Of personal interest are the many hills and walks within range...loads to be explored next time!
Great campsite, would stay again
What a great campsite, easy to find using the what three words from the website, friendly and helpful welcome, good pitch with great facilities,
Little disappointed to be kept awake til 1 with the music from another camper but that happens on all campsites.
I would definitely stay here again
great welcome, great site 👍
a great welcome ,we a had a great time thanks for taking the time to explain all the facilities and local attractions will definitely be back 😀
Had a lovely weekend Jules was great as…
Had a lovely weekend Jules was great as always, it's a good quite place to stay close to a micro pub and a twenty minute walk to cheddar
A relaxed, laid back and quiet stay. Great location!
A very warm welcome from Jules with lots of pointers for where to go locally and on our route home. The site was quiet during February half-term, but the cleanliness of the site was maintained despite fewer guests. Toilets and showers are in units rather than bespoke building, so are a little cold, but very clean with plenty of hot water. It is a very child-friendly site with plenty of space and dogs are both welcomed and fussed! The atmosphere was laid back across the site but equally, Jules was around and about for any issues or concerns, with a phone number provided if needed.
The location is excellent for a walk into Cheddar to explore the gorge, and there is also a very welcoming tap room a short stroll away.
Was a great short stay
Was a great short stay, went for a walk around Cheddar visited four local pubs and had some lovely sausages rolls from the butchers. Staff were friendly and accommodating will stay there again when in the area iny campervan.
Lovely site, lovely host and great location
I was met on arrival by Jules, the owner, and due to the bad weather, he upgraded my pitch for no extra charge. He was very helpful about not only the site bur the surrounding area, places to eat drink etc. The site itself is lovely and spacious, with lovely hot showers and spacious facilities. The location is fantastic and as a lone female traveller, it is nice to feel safe where you stay. Definitely be back in different weather to enjoy more of the area.
Friendly
Friendly. Quick response to email questions. Flexible on arrival time as quiet season. Helpful.
Lovely campsite
Nice, spacious campsite. Very clean individual showers and toilets. Everything needed to know was explained upon arrival. Good to see recycling actively encouraged Very friendly owner who cam round to see how we were getting on. Great walks straight from the site which is always a bonus
