Great

Off season so was quiet. But great location, the host was superb.

Fire pits on a chilly evening. Brilliant when you’re camping. What camping should be.

Great Stay

Really glad we chose Petruth for half term break with grandkids.
Lovely welcome,local area ,views and peaceful setting.Stayed in Jeremy Fisher Shepherds Hut,grandkids loved being Hobbits for a few days.
Accommodation and bed linen was clean.
Showers and toilets clean and showers nice and hot.
Fire pit is a must,even if for just one of the nights.
Take away food delivery good and easy to collect at entrance, had to pay in cash.
Sainsburys near by and went to The Bath Arms for a lovely meal.
Close by 30/40 mins to planned visits to (Cheddar and Puxton Amusement Park )
Would defo recommend and will be going back.

Beautiful location but we got flooded…

We had a brilliant weekend at this site however three of our party had to relocate their tents due to being completely flooded out. I would be wary of returning purely for this reason as much of the site was under water during our stay.
It’s a beautiful location and easy walking distance to a local tap room, Cheddar Gorge just up the road it’s great and the people were lovely who run it.
Obviously the location is at the bottom of massive hills and must be very close to the water table. People need to be prepared appropriately.

Hey Karen
Really good to hear that you had a great stay with us.

Your visit followed unprecedented rainfall so like many sites on level ground, we had water pooling on the lower fields until the sluice gates were opened by the slow to respond Environment Agency -effectively pulling the plug out!

We suggest you come stay in the summer and we'll get a round in at the Tap room to make up for your move!

Just grab me when you arrive :)

This was our second trip to petruth &…

This was our second trip to petruth & honestly you cannot find a more welcoming & stunning site to visit.
The staff are amazing, they managed to fit us in with very little notice due to having to leave another site in bath. Incredibly welcoming & honestly nothing seems to much if you need advice or have questions.
Our kids were out making friends the moment the caravan legs went down.
A must is to visit cheddar ales a short walk from site. We also ventured down the strawberry line with our bikes. Plenty of restaurants & bars in cheddar itself with beautiful scenery.
Overall fantastic stay & one we thoroughly enjoyed.

Great staff and location.

The staff are very welcoming and helpful.
The location is good, with nice views and a brewery close by.
The only fault I can find is the field we stayed in doesn’t drain very well and after heavy rain it was like a marsh.
Overall, nice campsite.

Warm welcome & overall excellence

Warm welcome, excellent facilities (clean toilets & showers etc.), very spacious grounds, a shop (with gluten free options, including beer!) as well as a breakfast van - what more can one ask for - definitely worth 5 stars!!😊

This is a great site

This is a great site. The owners have thought of everything and are nothing is too much for them. it's a short walk from there to cheddar village where there are plenty of pubs and restaurants to eat and drink. Also, cheddar ales brewery is 5 mins away by foot. Worth a visit.

Weekend break away

Love this site, facilities are exceptional and the staff are all so friendly and helpful. The Pizza on site was great. Didn’t hurt that the Ceddar Ale Tap Room is a 5 minute walk. Will definitely be back again.

Great place to stay

All members of Staff super friendly, great facilities, clear information on the area and loads to do. Communication before our booking very clear. Checking in was easy and couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome. On site shop had plentiful supplies.
