Went as a couple and was placed in a nice quiet field. Toilets and showers are excellent and being continually cleaned. Metered electric is a great bonus as we didn’t use that much and what was on... See more

Great campsite large pitches,lots to occupy children, clean facilities and lots of them! Great to be able to get food/use bar onsite. We did keep forgetting about having to top up our electric but easily done at reception. We are already planning our next visit! As a family with a young baby the only suggestion we have is it would be super handy to have baby change or even just a changing mat in some of the showers so theres somewhere to sort baby out after a wash without carrying them across to one of the baby change toilets.

Great facilities

Great facilities, although I was a solo traveller I could easily see that having the venue would be perfect for a family adventure. Location wise it was so convenient for the main attractions of cheddar.

A really nice touch was getting a visit form the owner on the first night providing me with some local advice

Really great campsite close to everything in Chedder.

Great location

Great location, very friendly staff and good facilities. We used it as a base to go walking and cycling in the local area which was perfect. The only negative was the showers were not heated but they were clean and plenty of hot water. We enjoyed are stay

Super place, super friendly, despite it being freezing cold we had lots of fun. Easy to walk around the town, the gorge, the pub, shops and fields. Safe, great showers, felt very well looked after.

A fabulously warm welcome on a cold February evening!

A fabulous warm welcome on a cold, rainy day. Clean, well serviced facilities including toilets, showers, shop, even during low season. Beautifully located. The team at Petruth paddocks are helpful, supportive, friendly and approachable, and this was warmly received on our first trip out in our camper, Bluey!

Always a warm welcome

Always a warm welcome, very accomodating. I have visited several times since when it was just two fields and a single toilet, to its now more updated facilities. Location is great Jules and the team are always welcoming.

Jules met us on site and was very friendly and helpful.
We enjoyed our stay, the only downside was due to the time of the year the showers weren’t open first thing in the morning and they were cold when we did finally get into them. There was a couple of other concerns which were raised to Jules which he took on board 😊
