Liked: We had a lovely time at this campsite. The owner was very helpful and kind, making sure we had everything we needed. When we struggled to get a fire going, he helped to make us one. The toilets are camping ones but were kept in good condition with everything you need. A beautiful location with amazing views. There is a local pub and it is a short drive to Cheddar.
Disliked: There was a solar shower but proper shower facilities would be beneficial and make it easier to stay for longer.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: So glad you all enjoyed yourselves. We are "almost wild" camping so soar showers work for us. Come when the sun is shining and give them a try.
Perfect trip, friendly and helpful owner. Scenic and peaceful.
