We went to broadway house in august and we really enjoyed it. The good sides were the bmx track and children's play area with a small bar so you can have a drink why watching the children play. Also my son loved the pool and crazy golf and he liked to spend his money in the shop.
We went for a day out in cheddar and that was bril and would strong recommend it. There are plenty of nice places to eat in cheddar itself.
The only downsides were the shower unit they were not very clean and most of the toilets were blocked. The food in the club was also not very good we only eat there the once and decided to bbq the rest of our stay or eat in cheddar. It was also very noisy at night.
We are going back at easter and looking forward to it, just hope they have cleaned the toilets by then.
Picked this site purely for the BMX track for the kids and were certainly not let down.
We had a fully serviced pitch - the newer ones on the first row- these were superb.
A large site and in our opinion well maintained and kept, friendly staff etc.
We are not for the pub and club, so did not go to the restaurant/bar, but it certainly did not disturb us at all during our weeks stay, as it seemed to be quite empty.
Swimming pool was good and a welcome break.
So much to do out and about Cheddar
Will revisit - although a good hike from Aberdeen!
This was our 2nd visit to this site. When we visited 2 yrs ago we loved it.
The old toilet block needs updating and even the newer block looks tired, in need of a good clean & was often without toilet paper. The shop had less to offer than before & the holiday activities that used to be run ie; archery, rock climbing etc didn't seem to happen anymore. There did seem to be a lot of noisy children around late at night & many more tents than tourers. The laundry was dirty & our pitch was quite small for a tourer, awning and car.
The BMX track, pool & adventure play area however remained a huge hit with the boys (13 & 10) & staff are still friendly and helpful.
The area around the site is beautiful with some lovely, if a little steep, dog walks and views.
A nice site with decent size pitches and privacy hedges.
Toilet and showers were good.
Although we didn't use the swimming pool it looked really great I would love to go back and try in warmer weather.
Close to Cheddar Gorge but not close enough to walk. Cheddar Gorge is a lovely town and the caves ae well worth a visit. Cheddar cheese co very expensive try some of the other lovely shops in the area.
Well maintained facilities including hot showers, toilets, washing up sinks and numerous water taps! Start the day with a delicious breakfast bap and tea / coffee onsite before venturing out to the famous Cheddar Gorge, only five minutes away! Lovely dog walks direct from the site.

First visit to Broadway House, and we've already booked to return.
We had a 'girlie' weekend, my friend, myself and our two 13 year old daughters. It was great.
The toilet / shower blocks were kept very clean, as were the bar / restaurant and pool areas.
Having two teenage girls with us, we hardly saw them unless they were hungry ! They spent much of the time in the skatepark, adventure playground and of course the games room and football pitch and they even ventured into the lovely pool.
As we had booked in for tent with no electric, we were a little distance from the toilet blocks (we were in Piddle Patch. Mmm lovely name for what is a fantastic meadow) but it wasn't a hassle you just have to walk fast or leave earlier.
We ate at the bar / restaurant both nights of our stay and the food was better on the Saturday, but well priced both nights and the service was good from both bar staff and waitresses (even though they forgot our dessert order, which was soon sorted)
The staff in reception were extremely busy the afternoon we booked in, but they were so professional and took everything in thier stride, they were lovely. Well Done ***
Everyone that we met staff wise were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, oh and the freezer facility for ice blocks was an extra added bonus.
Just come back from visit - first week of summer hols - expected it to be much busier but was surprised - firstly - visited with our three children - 7,10,12 - so mixture of ages - but this site did please all of them - pool was a hit with the youngest and was never busy when we visited - bmx bike track big hit with older two - who are both boys.
However, I would like to point out that bmx bike track is what it says and was much larger than I thought - definitely need helmet and if poss protective gear - lots of signs stating adult supervision needed but I noted many children on their own there. Adventure playground again really good - esp older children - there is a smaller playground for younger children but did not have much on it - pitches do very but all were quite large - lots of water points
Toilets - never busy - clean - if a little dated - shop well stocked - but if you want to do big shop there is a Tesco express - only about 10 mins down the road in Axbridge
Very close to Cheddar - only about 15 min drive - we went to Fleet Air Arm museum - really good esp for boys - daughter was a bit bored - but would recommend -
Would I go back well no reason I would not - but I like to visit lots of different places - would I recommend yes - but not if you have young children - by this I mean children who cannot wander by themselves as lots of older children on bikes and as I say main play area is really geared for ages 5 and above
Stayed in a log cabin on the site, very nice self contained units, club food was very nice, shop was well stocked, only problem was we hired a mini bus for the holiday so were without a car when it left. A long and possibly dangerous walk in to cheddar especially if you have young children, roads very busy. Cheddar is great for the family enjoyed it.
A lovely site, nice location but very expensive to stay at £39 per night for a tent with 2 adults and 4 children 2,4,7 & 8
I had checked and double checked on the phone that the 'super' pitch that we had booked would definitely be big enough for our Outwell Hartford XXL. Unfortunately, as someone else has also said, upon arrival we found that the first 2 pitches offered to us would no way have taken the size of our tent.
There didn't actually seem to be a 'super' pitch with the sizes stated available, so we were told to find a pitch that we thought we'd fit on then come back to reception and enquire as to whether that pitch was available.
Unfortunately we were in the location furthest away and this meant driving backwards and forwards to reception with 4 very grumpy, tired children in the car
The pitches were grass and has electric and water available between 2 pitches. Unfortunately there was no drainage available by your pitch so although you could wash up if desired using the supplied tap, you then had to walk elsewhere to drain it officially
The pool area was nice and was supervised at all times by a lifeguard
The shop was very poorly stocked, even with the basic requirements such as milk, bread, bacon etc, but there was stock of many camping accessory items, toys etc. However there was a garage at the end of the road which stocked all the basics
The pub/entertainment area and toilets were in desperate need of modernisation unfortunately
The hot water temperature in the showers was not controllable and was way too hot for our little ones, even I found it burning. We wouldn't want a cold shower of course, but these really were too hot
Fantastic adventure playground which the children loved, with adjacent BMX track which wouldn't be something we would use but great for enthusiasts.
Overall, the layout and pitches were nice, lots of hedges and trees, and the swimming pool was nice, but the shop, entertainment area etc let it down I'm afraid. We did eat on the bar the first night as it was too late to cook and the children were hungry, but the portions were tiny and very expensive
This is our sixth visit to this campsite but the first under the new ownership.
First impressions were that the old strawberry field seems to have been sold off and now looks like a rather scruffy patch on the outside of the site. Also many of the front pitches have been converted to motorhome spots: they look absolutely ideal if you do own a tourer, but from first glance, with all their gravelly new-ness, did rather resemnble a scarily large and grey car park.
We had one of the larger pitches and it was great, well maintained and quiet. It was quite a walk to the toilet blocks though with a toddler so if you have a toilet-training age child it may be worth asking for a pitch closer to the facilities.
Facilities were good, the newer block is very clean although it would be nice if the hairdryer facilities were better - in one it was falling apart, in the other inoperative. There were facilities wherer one could use a hair straightener (essential as we were in Somerset to attend a family wedding) but they are hidden - there is a point in the baby room that takes 10p pieces, and one in the launderette that takes 20p pieces. 10p was sufficient.
The water was also very hot so beware: I thought my son was (as usual) making a fuss until I tested the water- after a few minutes it really was too hot for a child.
The baby bath was most appreciated though, a useful facility to have.
Play areas still good- though shame to see the larger one had shrunk (didn't visit the smaller one because of time constraints). Very sad to see the soft play area gone as that used to be very helpful of an evening.
Food wise, the restaurant standards have risedn immensely- still a fairly basic menu but expanded, decent prices and well cooked. Pity though that there was no breakfast facility, and I saw several families leaving site in search of food.
Locality wise this is a lovely area, Cheddar is nice for a walk and browse, and Wookey makes an excellent day out with the kids.
Don't miss the strawberry sellers on the road in season BUT beware of an exceptionally busy road- not a walk for the little ones. They would be better off in the park or pool with an adult.

Just had two days at Broadway House, loved it, will be going back. Used it for a weekend trip, we visited Weston Super Mare and Cheddar Gorge. Pitch was great, toilets and showers clean and tidy. Was some noise from other guests but by 10pm it was silent. Great pool, play ground & crazy golf. All the pitches are split by hedge rows so you had your own space.
This was our first visit to the site. It was well presented, and the pitch a good size. The staff were friendly and the site clean and tidy.
The pool was clean and warm most days and the kids loved it, but be warned there is no where to change unless you want to use the toilets.
The water was too hot in the main showers for little ones, so ended up using disabled toilets (our little girl is disabled) instead.
The pool got very busy at the weekends.
During the week there was very few services open. The pool shop was shut, the bar / club house was shut so no entertainment all week, so couldn't go and have a drink in the evening, which we weren't warned of.
The play parks were good but we didn't really use much of them.
I think this site suits older children. It gets very busy at the weekend and a little noisy.
This is our second visit since becoming 'vanners! The first time was October '09, when it was very empty so great for us as this was our second time using our van so was making loads of mistakes!
This time was totally different, was packed due to the BMX rally that was happening. But that did in no way disturb our stay.
Our pitch was a 'super pitch' and it was super. Loads of space for most peoples needs. Small patch of grass which was perfect for sitting on. Pulled table out of van to have lunch and a small bbq one evening.
The facilities were close by and plentiful, never queued, cleaned regularly, but in need of a little updating.
The pool was open, but we did not use it, so cannot comment.
Shop well stocked for basics.
Bar was good with nightly entertainment, although the food was a little basic, was good.
All in all great 3 days, well worth visiting again, and would recommend to families and couples.
Great site, excellently positioned for the tourist sites at Cheddar, Wookey Hole, Glastonbury and Somerset coast.
Good facilities: clean shower/toilet block, dishwashing, plenty of drinking water taps, heated swimming pool, toddlers play area and larger adventure playground, BMX track, bar / restaurant serving a basic pub food-type menu (the quality was fine though) with kids entertainment on certain nights. Reasonably stocked shop but there is a better priced Spar at the nearby Shell petrol station (2 mins walk from the site entrance).
Pitches are varied in size and you can book specific sizes when you book. Pitches are arranged in 'streets' with hedges separating individual pitches although there are more open, hard-standing caravan 'streets'. Our pitch was pretty hard and grass bare after a summer's worth of use but it was ok because the weather was dry for our stay. (Would have been very muddy in damp weather).
There did seem to be some noise going on late into the evening on the Friday night (Bike Fest coincided with our visit) and although it wasn't close enough to really disturb us, it would have been a pain had we been near.
We have just spent 10 days camping at Broadway house and overall had a lovely holiday - despite the weather. Unfortunately we were disappointed with the campsite.
Although being assured on the phone that the pitch allocated to us would be plenty big enough for our 7mx5m tent and car it was not. We managed to move to the next pitch which was slightly wider as it was at the end and just about squeezed on. Due to the size of the pitches most cars had to be parked across the front on the tents. At busy times this meant when sitting outside the tent and looking down the row of pitches all could be seen was a row of cars – a bit like sitting in a car park which was a shame. We would have been better on the larger pitches at the back field but many of these were on slopes and a long way from the toilet blocks.
The shower and toilet facilities were mostly clean and there was plenty available if you used the main block. My only complaint is that they are very out of date and could do with refurbishment.
The recreation facilities at this site were excellent. The pool was clean, lovely and warm and my children (7 and 5) enjoyed being in there most days. Both playgrounds were great and the BMX track looked fantastic for older children.
The shop was well stocked for essentials such as milk Bar B Q coal etc. We ate in the bar one lunchtime and the food was OK. We went to the children's entertainment 2 nights and my girls had a good time. The shop / reception / bar area is very out of date and could do with refurbishment, this was a major let down for us.
All the staff on the site were friendly and very helpful.
This campsite is well placed to visit Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole, Burnham on Sea, Longleat and Wells all of which are good days out. Cheddar is a nice village with nice restaurant/pubs and the local Budgens provides OK provisions. We used and would recommend the local butcher.
This was an expensive campsite compared to others we have used this year and for us did not represent value for money at all. We have stayed in cheaper campsites that offer as good and more up to date facilities with bigger pitches. If I was visiting this area again I would not use this campsite or recommend to friends unless a price reduction and/or a major refurbishment had taken place.
