Good for families

A good winter base

This site makes a great base for exploring the area. There are many walks directly from the site including a circular which we completed which goes down to the Chew Valley Lake and across the fields to Chew Magna and then back via a different route. We also enjoyed cycling on the Bristol to Bath Cycleway starting at Warmley to cycle into Bath on one day and into Bristol on another day. Both places are well worth visiting. Wells, Cheddar and Weston S Mare are also near enough to visit on a day outing. The site itself is very nicely kept, as you would expect from it’s 5* rating, with the convenience of a fully serviced pitch meaning no water carrying, waste water emptying and TV tuning as all to hand on the post in the corner of the pitch. The individual bathrooms containing washbasin, shower and toilet were kept very clean although the showers weren’t the best and one morning were cold!! Staff were all very friendly and helpful – it’s a nice touch to have your van pitched for you when you arrive but can’t quite see the need for it when you leave as you already have your car on the pitch to load up and to start up the tractor to pull the van a few 100m seemed a little unnecessary, especially when the site wasn’t busy. I can see the purpose of parking the car on the car park during your stay but with motorhomes moving on and off all of the time I think the use of the tractor was a little excessive. The information room was brilliant with a library of books, information leaflets, walk details and even some DVD’s to borrow. For us this was very much a winter months site as with all hard standing and everybody hidden away by 6.00pm when it was dark it was fine but don’t expect any nice views to sit and look at when the weather is warmer and the evenings sunny. The site doesn’t have quite the feel of a usual CMC site as it is privately owned but it does its job well and provided a very comfortable base for our 5 night stay.
