Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Lots of staff members, all very friendly, helpful and great with the children. Showers and toilet block were cleaned very often. Showers were hot and great quality. Great facilities on site, site shop, coffee shop, place to get cooked breakfast, Bar area, some great food options in the evening. All very reasonably priced. Probably one of the best campsites I've stayed at. Jules and his team have a really lovely place and should be very proud. We'll definitely be back.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked The atmosphere was very friendly, lovely lush green grass with wild flowers , double decker bus for alcohol and small food trucks ,short walking distance to brewery which was great,short walk to cheddar village , great place to spend a few days

Disliked We were placed in a field that was a long walk to the toilets although we had a portaloo ,the toilets were a bit dirty but that was due to the amount of people there .

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely staff, lots of toilets and hot showers. Live entertainment and food if you want it. Good size pitch. Great recycling policy. Not too many rules so quite chilled. Great location. Reasonably priced.

Disliked If going on a busy weekend (we went on the 2nd may bank holiday) can take a while to get a pitch if you get there for 2pm. The staff were doing their best but took an hour to get a pitch. Even with lots of showers be prepared to queue on busy times. All the showers and toilets are in the centre so can be a walk if you're on the edge of the site. An adults only field would be great. Just a note not a negative, no WiFi and bad signal in the area.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Absolutely cracking site. All staff are very friendly. The bus bar is a great addition and the live music was brilliant (the singer on the Friday night was absolutely amazing!). Great location. We walked into Cheddar a few times. Pitch size was great even though it was pretty much full for the BH weekend, and no issues with saving a pitch next to us for daughter’s arrival the next day. The food at the breakfast van was delicious. Would definitely recommend and we would return for sure! The showers were fab, great pressure, hot, and take as long as you like. Thank you Petruth Paddocks ❤️

Disliked A bit of a design fault having showers opposite toilets which meant the floor gets very dirty from wet feet. Kind of thought showers should have been in their own bit, but when toilets were cleaned they did a great job and were spotless (for a while)

Route directions

Use postcode BS27 3XW for your satnav but please stop following it and start following the directions below when you are a couple of miles away - that way you'll not end up on an unmade road or on the site drive. If you are approaching Cheddar from the west, and you are towing a caravan or driving a large motorhome, then please exit the M5 motorway at junction 22, not 21. Travel along the A371 through the centre of Cheddar village. You will pass Tesco on your right and the Bath Arms on your left. Continue on this road passing St Andrew's Church followed by Cheddar Football Club on your right. After a further 250 yards, take a right turn off the A371 into Labourham Way. Take an immediate left, slow to walking pace and you’ll see our large sign in front of you – simply take a sharp left through the gateway and follow the track into the carpark. If you are approaching Cheddar from the east, and you are towing a caravan or driving a large motorhome on the B3135, please do not turn left signposted Gliding Club, but continue down the Gorge. Travel along the A371 through Draycott. You will pass the Cheddar Garden Centre and the Kart track followed by a nasty S bend. On exiting the bend, take an immediate left off the A371 at the "Welcome to Cheddar" sign into Labourham Way then another immediate left, slow to walking pace and you’ll see our large sign in front of you – simply take a sharp left through the gateway and follow the track into the carpark. Public transport: The bus stop is just a 10 minute walk away and will take to you either Weston Super Mare or Yatton train stations within an hour.

Local attractions

There’s loads within walking distance of the campsite to keep you entertained. Fancy sampling local produce? Cheddar Ales Brewery, Tap Room and Shop (five minutes’ walk) has a range of award-wining ales. Walk a bit further on a Sunday morning and you’ll come to Cheddar Car Boot and Market (10 minutes), with a lakeside setting and lots of bric-à-brac to browse. Cheddar itself is a 10-minute meander along the Strawberry Line footpath, crossing the Cheddar Yeo river into the village, where there’s a posh pub (all the more reason to leave the car behind), a butcher, baker and supermarkets. A few more minutes’ stroll gets you to Kings Fitness and Leisure with a pool (handy for rainy days), Ocean Adventures Soft Play and sailing on the reservoir. Cheddar Gorge and Caves is a 20-minute amble from your door and is home to restaurants, a cheese factory, a cider mill and souvenir shops, as well as caverns and tunnels running deep under the Mendip Hills. A short car journey takes you to Wookey Hole Caves (15 minutes’ drive), with spectacular subterranean caverns and family entertainment like pirate ships and dinosaur trails. Wells (20 minutes) is the smallest city in England and has a landmark cathedral and a medieval bishop’s palace in moated gardens. Within half an hour’s drive you have a choice of sandy beaches: Weston-super-Mare, Burnham-on-Sea and Berrow, and at Mendip Activity Centre (20 minutes) you can learn to ski, go twilight tobogganing or play golf-frisbee on woodland trails.
