1/4

Our site is a Landscaped 12 acre area including a Marine Lake, Camp site, Boat storage and the Uphill Pill river with boat pontoon moorings. The camping, motor home and caravan area is in secluded wooded site alongside the local Nature Reserve with access to the Mendip trail walks, the Uphill Beach, the Brean Down peninsula and Fort The Weston-super-Mare bus transport stops outside our site entrance with a cafe/tearooms on site and local inns and shops some 5 minutes walk. Though close to the local village the adjacent cliffs ensure that the site is shielded from any local traffic noise and that you wake up to the birds morning chorus. Weston-super-Mare town centre is some 20 minutes walk along the beach or public roads with the rebuilt Grand Pier now rebuilt and open for business.
