Bishops Lydeard Caravan and Camping Site

Positiv Lovely site, ideal for the steam railway, friendly owners

Negativ Extremely tight entrance and exit with difficult turns. Not really suitable for big vehicles. Would not return because of this - shame as nice otherwise

Positiv Lovely welcome and peaceful site, even with the cockerel! Handy for the West Somerset Railway and our trip on the Royal Scotsman. Would definitely stay again.

Positiv Made to feel welcome on arrival, good location,ideal for walks and cycling, lovely village within walking distance with great amenities

Positiv Bishop Lydeard Caravan Site, plenty of open space, well tended grass, a sheer countryside experience

Negativ Tightness between two pools access

Positiv Lovely peaceful site, amazing owners very helpful and friendly.

Negativ Nothing

Positiv Lovely flat pitch, clean, comfortable facilities, perfect hostess,(aka The Chicken Lady, aka The Lady of Petunia Manor) beautiful location, great brewery 5 minutes walk away.

Negativ Just a suggestion really…. The shower heads are set on one fixed height which for the vertically challenged are a bit high up. Could an extra lower fitting be installed so we shorties could have The Perfect Shower?

Positiv Large level pitches, and lovely hot showers, with complementary toiletries which were a nice touch. The flushing chemical toilets were basic but adequate.
The site was very quiet apart from the feathered residents which we enjoyed hearing. The owner Karen was very friendly and helpful in pointing out local walks. There is also a brewery and the steam railway a short walk away, both are worth a visit.

Negativ Washing up area could be bigger, it meant queuing at times.

Positiv The peace and quiet, with only train whistles sounding. Extra facilities thoughtfully provided due to busy weekend. Good value for money.

Positiv Friendly owner who allowed us to pitch early. The small site was wooded on 3 sides and there was an intimacy to the site. Despite the high temperatures, it was possible to find shade. The water in the showers was hot and I liked the complementary eco shampoo. There was plenty of toilets and showers for the size of the site. We were next to the steam railway and the Quantock Brewery and close to lovely walking in the Quantocks. Very peaceful stay and a super 3 night stay and we will come again.

Negativ Only one washing up station meant we had to wait sometimes to wash up but that was a very minor issue.

Positiv We love this site, this is the third time we've stayed here and spoke to a few people on the site and it wasn't anybody's first visit; to me this speaks volumes.
The owners are really friendly, it's five minutes walk to the Heritage steam railway and to a Brewery with taproom and there's a regular bus service between Minehead and Taunton on the door step (well, by the station). The adjacent chickens and geese add a real farm feel to the place.

Negativ The phone signal is poor and there's no WiFi, also the toilet facilities are a bit basic but other than that there's nothing not to like.
