Petruth Paddocks and Cheddar Bridge Touring Park have once again put Cheddar on the camping map after being recognised as two of the UK’s outstanding camping destinations. Both are included in campsites.co.uk’s prestigious Outstanding Sites List, which highlights parks offering visitors a consistently high-quality experience based on guest feedback, site inspections, facilities and location. In both cases, 98% of visitors said they'd recommend the site; only 3 other Somerset campsites were rated as highly.
Thousands of visitors come to Cheddar each year as a base for exploring the Gorge, the Mendip Hills and local businesses, helping to support shops, cafés, pubs and attractions throughout the village. Tourism remains a vital part of our local economy, and national recognition like this helps encourage more people to discover everything the village has to offer.
Congratulations to the teams at Petruth Paddocks and Cheddar Bridge on this well-deserved achievement. Their success reflects the hard work that goes into creating a welcoming environment for visitors and reinforces Cheddar’s reputation as one of the South West’s premier destinations for outdoor holidays.
Graham Godwin-Pearson says, "This is great news for Cheddar. Awards such as these showcase the very best of Somerset and provide another reason for people to visit, stay longer and return again in the future."
