August 2004 Just returned from this site. Found the toilet and shower facilities to be excellent with plenty of them. Never had to queue once and they were always clean.
Not really our type of site, but it was ok. Bar / Club on site which as you can imagine attracted all the teenagers etc., so it could get quite rowdy down there.
Some of the pitches are very small and we could not fit our Diablo 600 on the first one we were allocated so we had to move to another.
Some nice nature walks to go on - we only did one and that was supposed to be for Pixies - I was shattered.
Lots of kids on this site, flying round on bikes and scooters. Pool was freezing - but I could imagine it to be lovely on a hot day.
Probably wouldn't visit again - but if you like a camp with lots going on in it this is the place for you.
Best part of holiday was hearing an owl at 4 am on two mornings - first time ever.
August 2004 My husband, out two teenage children and myself have just returned from a three week camping holiday in Devon and Somerset. We stayed two nights in this campsite but we won't be returning here again unfortunatly.
As we were in a tent and had not booked, we were sent to the causal area. Very close to the main road and the volume of traffic was heavy, which made sleeping at night a noisy affair. There wasn't much room between tents and the toilet block was a fair walk away. Although the site has plenty of amenities for families there was by far too many rules (eg. no unaccompanied children under the age of 14 allowed in pool area and must always show pass).
Clubhouse was busy but more like a butlins night out.
August 2004 A busy site with plenty to do but rather too commercialized for me. Can be a bit noisy (depends where you pitch). Perhaps its a bit quieter out of season. Pitches vary considerably in size, so let them know clearly what your requirements are - some pitches are very small.
Toilets are adequate but with some shower overflow on the toilet block floor. The site do their best to keep it clean, but with unsupervised children allowed in the toilet block, cleanliness is unreliable. No seperate wash cubicles in the mens (don't know about ladies!).
I think the site is rather expensive. We only had a short time here. A caravan + gazebo (no awning) + electric, for 2 adults and 1 child (age 6) = £21.50. One night we had 2 extra adults - that night cost £30.50
Some tight bends if you have a large van, and if other cars are parked slightly off pitch.
I could see it would suit some very well, but generally we were not that keen. David
August 2004 Been to this site before in a tent, this was our first time with the campervan and 2 small children. If you are looking for a site with just about everything to make camping life easy, this is it. A free outdoor swimming pool, 2 good play areas for children, a pub with entertainment (mouse racing on a Monday), a takeaway, good size shop, activities etc etc etc.
If you are looking to 'get away from it all', have a quiet time, bird watching or whatever, and like roughing it a bit, this may not be the site for you. It is a bit like a holiday camp, there are LOADS of children running about, and it's quite noisy. Older children will have a brilliant time if they can be left to roam around unsupervised, there are plenty of walks and places to cycle. For very little ones, there isn't a swing suitable for them, and the pool can be crowded.
Good points: Plenty to do on site, not everything costs money - pool, pixie walk, just walking in the woods, cycling, looking at the animals, and a nearby reservoir to walk/cycle round. Everything is here, the toilets and showers are clean, plenty of taps, hot water to wash up. The sites with electricity have hedges around for privacy, seemed big enough to me. They now do a 'passport' system if you book in advance (phone is far quicker) which means you can arrive after midnight of your first day, and can go onto your pitch in the morning if its free (instead of waiting till midday).
Bad points: Staff can be grumpy..don't know why. Takeaway is reasonable prices but is usual burger n' chips, lasagne n'chips, shepherd's pie n'chips and the wait was 70 minutes when I went..The shop seems very expensive, and it's almost impossible to get fresh fruit and veg (try budgens in Cheddar). They also sell many toy guns and knives, not everyone's cup of tea, but they have got rid of their 'amusement' arcade (oh I hate them so much...).
Overall I think good value, but definately for families. Shop at Budgens and get your takeaway from the pizza place advertised in the information centre. Oh, and visiting Cheddar gorge is very expensive, but Longleat is a really good day out.
May 2004 Large site, with excellent facilities for all the family.
Clean toilets and hot showers. Excellent adventure play area and bmx/skateboard areas.
Lovely walks in woods and really clean swimming pool.
If going in a tent - pay extra for electric hook up pitch - pitches are nicely boardered by hedges - if don't have elec hook up pitch, then field near entrance would be very noisy by the main road.
This award winning Adults Only campsite has a working 17th century watermill in a peaceful wooded valley within the Exmoor National Park. Grass and hardstanding pitches, all set beside the River Exe or the sparkling mill stream, with electric, water, drainage, and TV hook-ups. A leisurely stroll up to a weir, and an area where dogs may run free and splash in the river.
Facilities include the beautiful dog walk, free wifi, fishing, modern toilet and shower block, dog wash, working watermill (tours on most Sunday mornings), salmon pass on the weir, shop, bus service, and excellent pubs in the locality. The site has beautiful views, an abundance of wildlife and many footpaths leading directly to the Exmoor woodlands and rivers. Find out more here

August 2003 I read some of the reviews before booking and must admit I was sold on the site before we got there. Reality is that it is a well worked out site, albeit the pitches seem squeezed in a little (we were in field 5), the checking in process was slow (and we arrived off peak time!!), however once on pitch the facilities were good, with a washing up sink located at the end of our row, Electric and water points on each pitch (water shared between 2 pitches, and numerous hot showers avaialble (albeit to hot as you can't alter the temperature and this during the hottest week of the year!!!!).
We didn't make to much use of the costly extras (archery etc.) however the pool was clean and not too busy, whilst the night time entertainment was also good value.... (We should have won the karioke, but were robbed by the cute boy singing Danny Boy!!!).... Food prices seemed ok, beer prices on the hotel prices end of ok....
Shop staff could do with learning to smile a little, however the shop was ALWAYS busy.... well stocked though....
Would I go back, well, no probably not, not really down to the site though more to do with the lack of things to visit locally once you have done the obvious ones.....
A suitable site for a week away....

August 2003 An excellent campsite, which only suffers from a 5 minute wait in Reception and 30 minutes in the takeaway, but well worth it.
I paid £21.50 for a family of 4 with a caravan with electric, and enjoyed a vast range of excellent free facilites which my children enjoyed. The adventure playground is second to none. The BMX track is International standard. The woodland walk is good. The pool clean and water warm. The showers and toilets spotless and can have own private shower room and also have a proper bath. The whole site is well thought out and designed. Everything is very close by and to a high standard. The club and take away is excellent. £2.50 buys a small meal, £4-£5 a full main meal. The compere runs an excellent disco and karaoke for children and families which is all included in the pitch price.
I paid the same price in Cornwall for a much lesser campsite, and a similar site in Norfolk is 30% more. Am going to return next year.
July 26th - Aug 1st 2003 Lovely campsite. Like the fact that pitches are separated by hedges or rocks. Toilets and showers clean, although had to walk to another field. Lots of activities on site - although some pricey. Lots of animals to see - llamas, donkeys, goats, ducks and a parrot called Sonny. 5mph speed limit on the site. Bicycles allowed. Good adventure playground and childrens play area. Now the downsides - It is a little bit pricey, we even had to pay extra for our trailer. There is a manual check-in system, and as this is a very busy site, I had to wait some time whilst they found my booking. Also, ourselves and quite a few other people on site, found the staff to be not the most welcoming we've encountered!

A busy site, ideal for those with children. Lots of activities and facilities including archery, air rifle shooting, adventure playground, swimming pool, table tennis and nature walks. There are also lots of animals for the children to look at. There are loads of signs as you enter which is a bit offputting but the site is very good.
