Nestling at the foot of the Mendip Hills in the historic village of Wookey Hole, this Park enjoys a quiet and scenic location close to the heart of rural Somerset. It combines permanent residential Park Homes which are owner occupied and lived in all the year round, with a separate camping area of approximately two acres with 30 pitches for tents. The Park is for adults only and does not accept children or infants. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead. The picturesque camping area is bounded by the River Axe, and composed entirely of level grassland with tarmac roads. Screened and sheltered by hedges and trees, it is pleasantly secluded and offers a peaceful haven for those wanting a quiet holiday in a area of outstanding beauty that is within easy reach of many inland attractions, as well as both the North and South Coasts of Somerset, Dorset and Devon.
