• 47.25 a night for EHU and hard standing.
• Code for the Johns, water/power failure some of the time. Glad we had water on board and emergency facilities.
• Minimal mobile and data signal. Wifi available for 1 device for limited time unless you pay more. Useless.
• Tasty bread on order through reception.
• Play Area and lots of chums for the smalls.

Slow road driving through Chew Magna, picnic at Chew Valley Lake (2.30 to park for 2 hours, ice cream van and clean public Johns), West Harptree, Blagdon, Rickford Chapel, Goatchurch Cavern, Cheddar Gorge, Cheddar village. Back through Cheddar Gorge, detour looking for somewhere to stop.
