The oldest family-run park in the Cheddar valley
Between Wells and Cheddar with spectacular valley and hill views
Licensed café and shop, indoor pool, paddling pool and games room

This Somerset site will have you breaking out in cheesy grins: stunning views of the Cheddar valley and Mendip Hills, spankingly clean amenities and a café with sun terrace where you can watch the kids whirling around the play park…it’s all gouda. Lying between Wells and Cheddar, family-friendly Bucklegrove Caravan & Camping Park is the oldest family-run park in the Cheddar valley and is set up for all ages in mind: as well as the play park and the family-friendly licensed café, the log cabin with indoor pool also comes with a smaller pool for mini cheddars, at no extra cost. A games room with pool table is also on site. For grownup concerns, Bucklegrove has a licensed shop, fully-equipped coin launderette and free use of the ice block freezer; there’s free hot water for dishwashing and showers, and separate family bathrooms and full-sized baths available for a nominal extra charge. The site has good mobile phone coverage and free wifi across throughout if you need to stay in touch or upload pictures of the views to Facebook. A pub is within a couple of miles; Bucklegrove is 15–20 minutes from Wells, Cheddar and Weston-super-Mare for pubs and restaurants further afield (a bus stop is just outside the park entrance for those getting about under their own steam).

Strawberry Field electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked I liked just being able to use the pool on and off all day. And the little shop wasn't expensive.

Disliked Would have been nice if we could of came earlier to set up the tent and make the most of the day. But I guess if your staying more then one night it wouldn't make no difference. That's about all. I didnt use any of the showers because we only stayed one night.

Grove electric grass touring pitch (large)

Liked Lovely clean camp with an extra large grass pitch. Went with family and we had a lovely spot to bbq and eat out between the 2 caravans. Nice bar with classic pub food at a reasonable price. Disabled facilities nice and clean with plenty of room. Bath also available costs £1 for 15 minutes of very hot water so was well worth the price. Surprisingly good WiFi and telephone reception.

Disliked Nothing

Grove electric grass touring pitch (large)

Liked Friendly atmosphere, good location, pool

Disliked Pitches v close together and no space for children to run around. This meant that they were constantly being asked by us parents to rein in their behaviour and stay away from other tents.

Grove electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked This site is just not for me.

Disliked Our allocated pitch was under a large tree which made it very dark and quite cold despite the hot day. It was also immediately next to the male chemical WCs and as the pitches are not large people were literally only a metre or so from the side of the van as they passed. The dates I booked were for a midweek break cafe/bar was closed. I checked with them first and was told it would be open one of the evenings of my stay, but it wasn't. The site plan shows a field gate and I asked about dog walks. The gate led straight out onto a road.

Local attractions

Bucklegrove is only a few miles away from two Somerset absolute must-sees: the spectacular Wookey Hole Caves and home of the Witch of Wookey for spellbinding shenanigans, and the Cheddar Caves and Gorge for would-be smugglers, adventure story fans and historyheads. The Cheddar Gorge is deep in records: it’s the largest gorge in the country, has the biggest colony of endangered greater horseshoe bats and is the discovery site of Cheddar Man, the oldest complete human skeleton found in Britain and a name you'll want to say in a dramatically deep superhero’voice; find out about him and his ancestors in the caves’ Museum of Prehistory. Outdoors around the gorge, there are the 274 steps of the Lookout Tower to puff up for sweeping Somerset views, and a clifftop walk and open-top bus tour. Apart from witchy and subterranean goings-on, holidaymakers in this corner of the country will find gardens, history, farm parks, theme parks, beaches and more within easy reach and other main Somerset attractions like Bristol and Bath within an hour’s drive. Glastonbury with its abbey and tor is less than half an hour away, and medieval Wells, Britain’s second smallest city (that’s four now) has a thirteenth century cathedral and bishop’s palace complete with moat. Feeling driven? The Haynes Motor Museum at Yeovil has the UK’s biggest collection of cars from around the world and is one of several museums in Somerset on the quirkier side: also try the privately-owned Oakham Treasures near Bristol for retail and farming history, the Helicopter Museum at Weston-super-Mare or the American Museum at Bath, the only American art museum outside the USA. Kids are spoilt for choice with the wildlife parks, zoos and aquariums in the area: whet their appetites at Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm in Bristol or the SeaQuarium at Weston-super-Mare before taking them to an adrenaline-inducing day at Longleat Safari Park just over the border in Wiltshire. Rollercoasters and fairs more their thing? Brean Leisure Park has 40 rides, river rides and splash parks; stroll along the miles of sandy stretch from here past Berrow and to seaside town Burnham-on-Sea. Sticking closer to Cheddar, there’s abseiling, caving, sampling the wares at Somerset cider farms, meandering around the Mendips or visiting the town’s sweet factory all to be had – and yes, there's also the cheese.
