Lovely place to stay

Douglas, Neil - 25/06/2025

Great location, bus links to Cheddar and Wells right outside the camp gate, good food and drink at the bar and restaurant, but not open every day. Toilet and shower block could do with updating but were adequate and spotlessly clean. Staff very helpful with information pack and bus time tables. Lovely pub a short stroll away from the camp with good food and drink and friendly staff.

A friendly and accessible site

Valuks, Martin - 20/06/2025

We enjoyed staying at this campsite together with our daughter and family. The booking procedure was very easy and the owners were very thoughtful. The children loved the animal walk and the swimming pool, the bar and restaurant area were also very good although we were disappointed to find that it is only open on certain evenings.The pitch provided was very level and quite spacious but the pitches were close together which left a slight chaos of parking. Also for the number of pitches and people staying on site we felt the amount of facilities offered was rather small.There was no queue for the toilet or shower area, but on a very busy weekend in the summer holidays it may well cause a problem.Overall ,we would stay here again as despite the somewhat cramped surroundings it is good value for money and our granddaughters loved it

5 visits in 10 mths? Think we kind of love it there!!

Pugh, William - 20/06/2025

Compact site with all the amenities needed. Have used 4 different caravans in the 5 visits. All being well equipped, clean and comfortable. Some of the nicest capable staff we have ever met. Nothing has been to much trouble for them. The site is well cared for and maintained. Each visit has been an absolute pleasure, even during bad weather as staying in the van was like home from home. The pool is excellent, clean and well maintained, which meant on wet days there was something to do that was enjoyable. The staff are very friendly and approachable too, which means any problems are dealt with quickly and without delay. Can’t actually wait till September to come back and enjoy what will be our 6 th visit in a year!!

Great little getaway

Wheatley, Amber Mai - 19/06/2025

We booked a last minute holiday at Bucklegrove holiday park, we read alot of reviews and most people said clean, friendly and great location, it certainly met these expectations, staff were approachable and we always had great customer service from the shop, restaurant and on site staff. The caravan was clean with all the basic essentials needed for a weekend away. The hot tub was clean and well maintained. We booked the dog friendly caravan and my dog loved the balcony, providing a secure outdoor space. I do think the outside area could be improved by having a complete fenced off area for dogs but the park were really accommodating towards dogs, an ideal getaway with your dog and family. The location is one of the best parts of Bucklegrove, the views are outstanding and shops were only a 10 minute drive away, as was wooky hole and the best car boot I've ever been to!The on site restaurant provided some really tasty meals, they were reasonably priced and well presented.

Bucklegrove holiday park is an amazing campsite that caters for everyone. My husband , son and I have just recently stayed with 3yr old grandchildren and they had such an amazing time. The pool is great and so are all the facilities. This is the 2nd time we have been here and both times did not disappoint.

The campsite looked very tatty - we left after 1 night.

Perry, Katrina - 18/06/2025

Our pitch was in the corner - the only view we had was unkept seasonal pitches that were all overgrown. We had a dumped amount of gravel to the right of our pitch.The toilets had a very damp musty smell - the ladies is by the bin area - didn't help the aroma!We were by the road and a lane so not thr quietest of places.We were booked and paid for 4 nights but as the view was so depressing we left at 8am after 1 night.We did see another couple pull up and complain and they were moved to another section - had we knrw there was another area we would have done the same before we unpacked and set up.We were not contacted as to why we left early - probably no one noticed as it was clear the sevtio we was in was not well maintained.The picture that is displayed as standing hard pitch is not reflective of what we was given!

First family holiday

Mackie, Catherine - 17/06/2025

The lodge was a good size and all worked great. Was not very happy with the cleanliness of it though. The floor was not hoovered and the dining table was dirty. Also paid for and requested a high chair and this was not provided. When asked for one, we were told that there was none available. Did not refund us the money for this either. On check out the cleaners for the hot tub came right when we was packing up the car, so had to watch for the electrical wire they were using and also found this very off putting and applied pressure. Staff on check out were not very attentive either.The site was maintained well though and in a great location/base for our trip.
