Excellent site nestled under a hillside looking out across the valley.Extremely tidy, friendly, over and above expectations value for money, central visiting location.
A lovely well run Holiday Park near Cheddar, only con i found was the bar/restaurant isn't open everyday - But if you want a quiet friendly clean break on a not so large site - This is Ideal
We have been to Bucklegrove about 10 times so obviously we love it,the staff are very friendly and helpful nothing is to much trouble.The toilet blocks are kept very clean as is the rest of the site,so well done Garyand Sally and the rest of the Team
The park has good views over Somerset. The bed was made up with clean bedding and towels were provided (which I wasn't expecting). It was quiet but there were very few children because the schools had returned after the summer break. We ate once in the restaurant/bar area but the food was average at best and expensive. The caravan wasn't very clean, the blinds were dusty, there were cobwebs in the corners and the light fittings, plus the TV cabinet had fire damage. Not the best holiday accommodation we've stayed in but it was in a good location for visiting the family in Wells and the price was very reasonable. The young ladies in the bar were friendly and helpful but we went to the shop at 5:45pm and it was shut, we spoke to a man at the back who said it closed at 5:30pm, when we pointed out it said 6:00pm on the door, he said "does it? Sorry". The nearest open shop was a fair car ride away, so we had no milk for a cup of tea or for breakfast. May stay again due to the location.
Lovely staff both in reception and the lodge, swimming pool area dated but fine for our 4 year old. Shower in swimming area needs review, it was far too hot for me so didn’t shower my 4 year old and my other half said it was freezing in there. Great food (curry and chips!), decent play are for children. Clean site maybe would benefit from some refurbs in shower and toilet block
An excellent place to stay, this is our second visit now. Very reasonably priced, well maintained pool, and extra facilities. Check in what easy even though we arrived after the check in desk had shut up. Would very likely return, only issue was the caravan could have done with a slightly deeper clean, some dust, cobwebs and dog hair not cleaned up but other than that all great and a well stocked kitchen with towels, toiletries etc. for what you pay, very worth going.
The lodge we had was dog friendly, it was superficially clean, however the sofas were very stained and grubby, needed a deep clean or recovering. The floors needed cleaning too. The kitchen and bedding was clean and very well equiped, We loved the view from the front deck with great sunsets, but the position of the lodge backed onto a gate to a public footpath which anyone could use in or out and it was open to walk into our entrance door and side garden where we sat and used the hot tub (which was super clean and lovely) but I felt very insecure using it with the access there. If the access to the lodge was rerouted round the front of the lodge facing the rest of the site and fully fenced at the rear it would have been perfect.Despite these niggles it was a lovely quiet site at a reasonable price, close to Wells and great walking, we would consider visiting again.
Another relaxing break at Bucklegrove, a quiet well appointed holiday park.catering for camper vans, touring caravans and freestyle camping. Lovely comfortable static holiday home, some with hot tubs.Also some lodges for bigger family groups Perfect for families with pre teenage children. Lovely friendly staff whom work hard to make ones stay enjoyable. A nice little club house (The Lodge) with a good range of food and drinks. Bucklegrove is in easy reach of some lovely attractions and the seaside for the more adventurous. For the more active there some beautiful walks Recommended 100%
Lovely welcome from all staff at reception and in bar. Great site. Toilet shower block could do with a deep clean and hooks adding to doors and near mirrors for washing bag hanging. Recycling should be available. I brought my cans and plastic home to do just that. Local pub very mediocre food and drink. Stunning places to eat in Wells
