  • Award-winning, peaceful and adults-only park
  • Overlooking the Mendip Hills; River Yeo flowing through the grounds
  • A short stroll to Cheddar village and Cheddar Gorge
How is Cheddar Bridge Touring Park gorge-ous? Let its flow of former guests count the wheys: it’s scenic, award-winning and overlooks the Mendip Hills; it’s a former Cheddar in Bloom winner for its viewsome flowers, and it has the River Yeo flowing through it – just look at those pics. If you’re a peace-loving peep, you might also brie chuffed to know that Cheddar Bridge is firmly for ages 18 and over, so no footballs should bang against your holiday home wall at six in the morning (unless your other half really can’t help it…). Once you’re nice and rested, it’s a short stroll from the site to comely Cheddar village, simply striking Cheddar Gorge and the Mendips, the limestone hills that are part of a Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Norman Ancient Monument and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked Very clean & welcoming site. beautiful walks from the doorstep. We walked from the site around the gorge, stunning views. We loved the strawberry line for biking & can recommend a stop at the thatchers cider brewery. A visit to Wells is a must, just a bus ride away. We didn’t need to drive anywhere.

Excellent little site, clean facilities and staff warm and welcoming!

Hazel B.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked We liked our pitch by the little stream that runs by the site! So relaxing and picturesque! We had a choice of pitches, the manager was really helpful on our arrival in allocating our request of being on the end due to our motorhome being 7 m. This site was kept spotless, the showers and toilet areas were modern and clean. It was too hot for us to venture too far but the beautiful cheddar gorge is within walking distance for those who are fit! We enjoyed dinner in the Bath arms in the village which does get very busy at weekends, we also found the village Sainsbury and Tescos useful for any necessities.
You can also find a bakery/cafe for stop off when walking. We found a delicatessen selling local produce, cheeses and meat!

Disliked Nothing really as we found everyone was so friendly. The WiFi and signal was not great!

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked A lovely site with spacious level pitches and lovely facilities. Very helpful directions at reception for the walkway into Cheddar village. We only stayed one night as a stopover on the way down to Devon but will definitely come back to stay for longer.

The park is nice and peaceful also very close to Cheddar village…

Local attractions

Cheddar Gorge and Caves first, of course: you could spend days in one spot just gaping at the gorge, but there’s also climbing and caving to be had, wandering around the heart-stopping stalactite caves (do stand and gawp here too), and puffing up Jacobs Ladder and to the Lookout Tower – it’s only about 300 steps to the tower top… Cheddar Bridge Touring Park is roughly halfway between the seaside at Weston-super-Mare and the tiny city of Wells for at least a couple of days’ worth of trips, with Bristol and Glastonbury also within a reasonable drive. Dive into Bath, also nearby, for Roman remains, spas and Jane Austen; the literature, arts and children’s literature festivals are well worth a look too if you’re in town at the right time. Hikers and twitchers have the Mendip Hills and the Somerset Levels to keep them occupied, with the Mendips also well known as a climbing and caving centre. Look out for peregrine falcons and marsh harriers in both areas; to find out more about snipes and other feathery sorts around these parts, the RSPB has a reserve at West Sedgemoor. Savvy shopper sort? Congratulations: Wells has a market every Saturday and Wednesday, and the biggest car boot market in the south-west is on every Sunday at Winchester Farm, only a quarter of a mile from Cheddar Bridge Touring Park: bring an extra suitcase for your goodies.
