Three West Country Parks awarded the AA’s Four Star Gold Award for the second year running

Fri, 24 Apr 2026 11:26:45 GMT

We are thrilled to share that Rose Farm, Coombes Cider Farm and Riverside Holiday Village have achieved the AA’s Four Star Gold Award for 2026/27

Following our annual Mystery Guest visits by a professional inspector this April, each park has been re-assessed under a set of quality standards agreed between the AA and the UK Tourist Authorities.

The inspection included an assessment of each parks;

Location and Access
Sustainability/Green Credentials
Customer Care
Cleanliness/Maintenance across the park
Toilets (quality, cleanliness and maintenance)
Other Site Facilities
Pitches
Grounds

All three parks scored an impressive 91% overall (an increase on last year) - with Coombes and Rose Farm both achieving full marks for 'customer care' and Riverside’s impressive facilities and cleanliness/maintenance across the park bagging them the top score. Additionally, each park was again awarded a Gold Award, placing them amongst the best sites in their star category.

When visiting Four Star Parks, customers can expect an extremely high standard in all areas, with well-maintained facilities, very good customer care

and additional facilites compared to lower rated establishments.

David Tattersall, Group Manager of West Country Park Homes:

"Consistency is so important in our industry and we're extremely proud to have achieved this level of award by such a high-brand Assessor for the second year running. It just confirms that we are continuing to meet the high standards that our visitors expect and deserve."

Million Mile Clean April 2026

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 12:19:29 GMT

In association with Surfers Against Sewage, we remain committed to the Million Mile Clean

On another sunny morning this April, volunteers from Riverside Holiday Village, Edithmead Leisure and Park Homes, Fairways Holiday Park and New House Farm headed out on our third 2-mile 'litter pick' along Bridgwater Road in Weston-super-Mare.

We managed to collect 14 sacks of litter, plus several broken road signs and a damaged car tyre! As usual, energy drink cans were by far the biggest offender, closely followed by discarded alcohol bottles and fast food takeaway wrappers. We even found a discarded wet floor sign!

All waste was collected by our waste management partner, MJ Church.

Now the biggest initiative of its kind in the UK, the Million Mile Clean is an annual event, mobilising 1,000,000 million volunteers to clean over 10,000,000 miles of UK landscape between 2021 - 2030.

We would like to say a massive 'thank you' to all of our volunteers - we're planning another 'clean' this September - please keep a lookout for more updates about future events!

West Country Parks Third Million Mile Clean

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 12:30:11 GMT

Join our team of volunteers this April

Event: Million Mile Clean (Hospital Roundabout - Hobbs Boat Inn)

Date: Thursday 23rd April from 10.00am - 1.00pm at Riverside Holiday Village

If you'd like to volunteer, please register your interest with our reception team at Riverside (pop into see us or give us a call on 01934 812342)

Last year, 13 volunteers collected 23 sacks of litter over 4 miles as we completed two Million Mile Cleans. And this April, we're doing it all over again!

Providing a clean and attractive destination for our visitors to enjoy not only benefits our business, it also positively impacts our local community and the wider environment. Which is why we have committed to join Surfers Against Sewage Million Mile Clean for the second year.

It’s reported that more than 2 million pieces of litter are dropped in the UK every day at a cost of £1 billion to the taxpayer. So, we are asking visitors and the local community to get pro-active and join us at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare on Thursday 23rd April from 10.00am - 1.00pm for an organised 3 mile ‘litter pick’ along Bridgwater Road (Hospital Roundabout - Hobbs Boat Inn).

‘Clean Kits’ will be provided; we’re just asking for 3 hours of your time to help clean up this public space.

Speaking about the campaign, West Country Parks’ Group Manager, David Tattersall, said:

‘Somerset is a fantastic place to enjoy an amazing staycation; with the perfect combination of sandy beaches and rolling countryside.

Keeping our outdoor spaces clean and litter free must be a priority and we are keen to support all of the fantastic work that Surfers Against Sewage are championing.’

Riverside Holiday Village named Holiday Park of the Year & Dog Friendly Business of the Year

We are delighted to share that Riverside Holiday Village has been named the Holiday Park of the Year and Dog Friendly Business of the Year at the Bristol, Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards 2026, held at T he Apex City of Bath Hotel in Somerset.

These award categories recognise holiday parks, sites and villages that provide exceptional guest experiences across static vans, touring pitches and more with a wide range of facilities and entertainment, and providers of truly memorable experiences for dogs and their human companions.

This year marks the second consecutive year that Riverside has won the coveted Holiday Park of the Year Gold Award.

Nell Barrington, awards director at Services for Tourism Ltd, commented on the importance of the awards: “What I love most about these awards is that they give tourism businesses the recognition they deserve. So many of them work incredibly hard, often with little reward, and some are tiny teams or even just one person keeping everything going. Despite the challenges the sector continues to face, these businesses have shown excellence, innovation and resilience.”

We would like to thank our visitors, supporters and all of our fantastic team for your support.

Green Goals and Inclusivity Updates, Quarter 3, 2025

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 14:23:48 GMT

Nine months have passed since we shared our Green Goals for 2025 and we continue to make fantastic progress!

Between July and September 2025 we have been involved with several important Community Environmental Projects including the Surfers Against Sewage Million Mile Clean, Butterfly Conservation's Big Butterfly Count and the North Somerset Bat Survey.

1. Community Environmental Projects

1.1 West Country Parks join the Million Mile Clean

5 months ago, we completed our first Million Mile Clean, collecting 11 sacks of litter over 2 miles, and this September, we did it all over again!

1.2 West Country Parks joins the North Somerset Bat Survey

For 6 nights this September, West Country Parks joined the North Somerset Bat Survey. Led by the Bat Conservation Lab at the University of Bath and in partnership with BTO, North Somerset Council and the Avon Wildlife Trust, the North Somerset Bat Survey aims to collect data on bats across the county, whilst engaging the public with bat conservation.

With our close proximity to the Mendips, it's safe to say that we were expecting some bat activity, but the results were way beyond our expectations! Find out more .

1.3 West Country Parks joins the Big Butterfly Count for the second consecutive year

This summer, several of our parks undertook the Big Butterfly Count. This annual citizen science programme attracted over 125,000 participants between 18th July and 10th August and recorded an impressive 1.7 million butterflies and moths - a marked improvement on last year.

After declining numbers of butterflies resulted in the charity declaring a nationwide Butterfly Emergency in 2024, it’s more important than ever that we continue to support this project.

2. Biodiversity

2.1 Wonderful Wetlands

Ponds, streams and other wetland areas are vital for wildlife. Which is why, this summer, we have been working hard to enhance our man-made lake at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare.

By increasing the size and depth, we aim to provide a more varied habitat in order to support larger and more diverse animal populations.

3. Community Engagement Projects

3.1 Festive Food Bank

We don't think that anyone in our community should have to fear going hungry. So, we will be supporting our local Food Bank again this winter by collecting food donations at several of our holiday parks.

All donations will be gratefully received - find out more.

So, as you can see, we’re well on our way to meeting our Green Goals for 2025 and we look forward to updating you of our progress later in the year.

We share the results of our North Somerset Bat Survey

Mon, 29 Sep 2025 10:08:00 GMT

This September, we joined the University of Bath's North Somerset Bat survey and the results were amazing!

Over 6 nights this autumn, two ultrasonic bat detectors were deployed at Riverside Holiday Village in Bleadon, capturing more than 6,000 recordings in total!

With our riverside location and close proximity to the Mendips, it's safe to say that we were expecting evidence of some bat activity, but the results were way beyond our expectations!

Of the 16 known breeding bat species found in Somerset, 15 appear to have been detected on our recordings - including the rare Grey Long-eared Bat! But that's not all! We also appear to have detected evidence of Alcathoe Bats - a species which, according to the Somerset Bat Group , has yet to be found in Somerset - although further verification would be needed to confirm their presence.

As well as being incredibly cute, these tiny creatures play a crucial role in pest control, pollination and seed dispersal. Their presence (or absence) can reflect the overall health of an ecosystem, so it's fantastic to know that there are so many species present in the area.

This year’s North Somerset Bat Survey will take place until the 1st November 2025, so there's still time to get involved.

Green Goals and Inclusivity Updates, Quarter 2, 2025

Fri, 04 Jul 2025 10:16:04 GMT

Six months have passed since we shared our Green Goals for 2025 and we continue to make fantastic progress!

Between January and March 2025; The Kingfisher Club at Riverside Holiday Village joined the growing community of 5,100 Warm Welcome Spaces across the UK, we committed to join the Surfers Against Sewage Million Mile Clean, created and published a comprehensive Access Guide for Riverside Holiday Village, installed a new Hearing Loop System and purchased a specialist 'All Terrain' Wheelchair for visitors to borrow.

And our momentum hasn't slowed down during the Spring! In recognition of our businesses commitment to achieving a positive and long-term impact on the environment, this March, Riverside Holiday Village was awarded the Environmental and Sustainability Award at the prestigious Somerset Business Awards 2025.

1. Community Environmental Projects

1.1 West Country Parks join the Million Mile Clean

5 months ago, we completed our first Million Mile Clean, collecting 11 sacks of litter over 2 miles, and this September, we're doing it all over again. But this time, we're adding in an extra mile!

Find out more about our September Million Mile Clean

1.2 West Country Parks joins the North Somerset Bat Survey

This September, West Country Parks will join the North Somerset Bat Survey. Led by the Bat Conservation Lab at the University of Bath and in partnership with BTO, North Somerset Council and the Avon Wildlife Trust, the North Somerset Bat Survey aims to collect data on bats across the county, whilst engaging the public with bat conservation.

For 6 nights, we will deploy two ultrasonic bat detectors at Riverside Holiday Village to monitor the activities of any bat species around our holiday park.

1.3 West Country Parks join the Big Butterfly count for the second consecutive year

Last August, several of our parks undertook the Big Butterfly Count, and this summer we're going to involve even more of our team.

This annual citizen science programme, which is now in its 16th year, attracts tens of thousands of people out into their gardens, local green spaces or the countryside to spend 15 minutes counting butterflies and helping to track trends and inform conservation action.

After declining numbers of butterflies resulted in the charity declaring a nationwide Butterfly Emergency last year, it’s more important than ever that people take part in 2025.

2. Waste

2.1 Tackling Single-Use Plastics

This May, our popular Riverside Holiday Village was awarded the Silver Plastic Free Champion Award by Surfers Against Sewage.

Launched by Surfers Against Sewage and supported by Cleaner Coastlines and Plastic Free Weston-super-Mare , the Plastic Free Champion Award is presented to businesses who demonstrate their commitment to tackling single-use plastic items in their business.

Visitors to the Kingfisher Club at Riverside Holiday Village will notice that plastic takeaway cutlery has been replaced by sustainably sourced and biodegradable wooden alternatives. We are also using compostable takeaway coffee cups, and our takeaway burger boxes are made from rapidly renewable sugarcane pulp (a by product of the sugar refining industry) and other plant fibres. Plastic carrier bags have also been replaced by brown paper takeaway food bags.

So, as you can see, we’re well on our way to meeting our Green Goals for 2025 and we look forward to updating you of our progress later in the year.

We're getting out for the Big Butterfly Count this July and August!

Fri, 27 Jun 2025 10:32:01 GMT

The Butterfly Conservation Big Butterfly Count returns from 18 July - 10 August 2025

Leading wildlife charity, Butterfly Conservation, has revealed the dates of this year’s highly anticipated Big Butterfly Count, which will take place from 18 July - 10 August.

The annual citizen science programme, which is now in its 16th year, attracts tens of thousands of people out into their gardens, local green spaces or the countryside to spend 15 minutes counting butterflies and helping to track trends and inform conservation action.

After declining numbers of butterflies resulted in the charity declaring a nationwide Butterfly Emergency last year, it’s more important than ever that people take part in 2025.

Last summer’s Big Butterfly Count results were alarming. Overall, participants spotted just seven butterflies on average per 15-minute Count in 2024, a reduction of almost 50% on 2023’s average of 12, and the lowest in the history of the Big Butterfly Count. It was also the worst summer in the Count’s history for a number of popular species including Small Tortoiseshell and Common Blue.

We are asking visitors to get involved and join us at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare on Thursday 1st August from 2.00pm - 2.15pm.

Event: The Big Butterfly Count

Date: Friday 18th July from 2.00 - 2.15pm at Riverside Holiday Village (meet us near the fishing lake)

Dr Richard Fox, Head of Science at Butterfly Conservation said:

“We need everyone, everywhere to get out for the Count this year and help us find out if last year’s shocking results were a blip, or if they indicate a much greater issue.”

Butterflies are indicators of a healthy natural environment, and with half of Britain’s butterfly species already threatened or near threatened with extinction, it’s never been more important to understand how our insects are responding to the changing landscape, climate and pollution, and to take action to protect them.

Butterfly Conservation’s Big Butterfly Count is the largest citizen science project of its kind and is a positive way that everyone can help. As well as contributing to important scientific data collection, taking part in the Count is a great way to enjoy time outdoors, connect with nature and have fun.

Whether done with friends and family, or in a moment of quiet calm and solitude, the Big Butterfly Count is free, fun and takes just 15 minutes. It is open to anyone, of any age, in any part of the UK - towns, cities or the countryside. No green space is too small - a back garden, a small terrace or balcony with some pot plants, a public park, allotment or country lane are all important spaces to explore, track and report.

Last year, more than 85,000 citizen scientists took part in Butterfly Conservation’s Big Butterfly Count, submitting 143,241 Counts. This is equivalent to 35,810 hours, or four years’ worth of time spent counting butterflies, in gardens, parks, school grounds and the countryside - areas the charity is not easily able to get vital data from otherwise.

The information gathered helps scientists to understand how butterflies and moths are faring, informs conservation projects and government policies and supports other experts with their research and vital work to protect our planet.

Dr Fox said: “In total, just over 935,000 butterflies and day-flying moths were recorded across the UK from 12 July - 4 August in 2024, down almost 600,000, equivalent to more than a third of 2023's total, and 9,000 Counts were logged as seeing zero butterflies, the highest in the citizen science programme’s history. This is very disturbing.

“Butterflies are a key indicator species; when they are in trouble, we know that the wider environment is in trouble too. Last year, nature sounded the alarm call, and we were able to respond, securing a complete ban from the Government on particularly toxic neonicotinoid pesticides on crops in 2025. Now we are calling on people across the UK to get involved once again, to enjoy 15 minutes out spotting and counting butterflies, and helping us to see how butterflies are faring this year.”

This year’s Big Butterfly Count runs from Friday 18 July - Sunday 10 August. For more information and to take part simply visit www.bigbutterflycount.org or download the free Big Butterfly Count app.

On a sunny morning this April, 7 volunteers from Riverside Holiday Village and Edithmead Leisure and Park Homes headed out on a 2-mile 'litter pick' along Bridgwater Road in Weston-super-Mare.

We managed to collect 11 sacks of litter, plus part of a lorry! Energy drinks cans were by far the biggest offender of the day, closely followed by discarded alcohol bottles and fast food takeaway wrappers. Some of the strangest finds included several odd shoes, one pregnancy test and a Drifters CD!

All waste was collected by our waste management partner, MJ Church.

We would like to say a massive 'thank you' to all of our volunteers - we're planning another 'clean' this September - please keep a lookout for more updates about future events!

Green Goals and Inclusivity Updates, Quarter 1, 2025

Wed, 26 Mar 2025 10:48:11 GMT

Visitors may remember that earlier this year we shared our Green Goals for 2025 . Despite this being our busiest ever start to the season, we’ve still found the time to make some fantastic progress over the last 3 months and we are proud to share the first of our quarterly updates for 2025;

1. Community Engagement Projects

1.1 The Kingfisher Club joins the growing community of Warm Welcome Spaces

To provide a warm, welcoming, safe space where individuals can connect and make new friends, The Kingfisher Club at Riverside Holiday Village has joined the growing community of more than 5,100 Warm Welcome Spaces across the UK.

This space is open to all; with free Wi-Fi, satellite TV, free events and activities, a clubhouse serving hot food and drinks, plus conversation and a smile ��

2. Community Environmental Projects

2.1 West Country Parks join the Million Mile Clean

3. Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity

3.1 New Access Guide

There are an estimated 16 million people in the UK with some form of disability, each with individual needs.

To help these visitors to make their own assessment of whether our holiday park is suitable for their unique requirements, we have created and published a comprehensive Access Guide for Riverside Holiday Village.

This guide combines clear photographs of key areas as well as simple wording to give our visitors the opportunity to assess accessibility on our park for themselves.

3.2 New Hearing Loop System

Approximately 2,000,000 people in the UK use hearing aids. So, to better support visitors with hearing impairments, we have installed a new Hearing Loop System in our Reception area at Riverside Holiday Village.

3.3 New 'All Terrain' Wheelchair and Additional Disabled Parking Bays

To allow visitors with mobility issues the opportunity to experience our fishing lake and new meadow walk at Riverside Holiday Village, we have purchased a specialist ‘All Terrian’ Wheelchair which visitors can borrow during their stay. Designed to handle most terrains effortlessly, from city streets to rugged trails, this innovative mobility aid offers the freedom to embrace new experiences. Our wheelchair is allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. Please ask at reception for more information.

We have also doubled the amount of disabled parking spaces outside of our reception and recreational facilities, along with a dedicated mobility scooter parking bay.

So, as you can see, we’re well on our way to meeting our Green Goals for 2025 and we look forward to updating you of our progress later in the year.

Our Green Goals and Inclusivity for 2025

Fri, 14 Feb 2025 12:37:46 GMT

At West Country Parks and Riverside Holiday Village we are committed to taking a proactive approach to help preserve the natural world for future generations to enjoy

The following Green Objectives provide an outline of how we will contribute to protecting and enhancing the environment over the next 12 months and beyond.

Last year (2024), we took huge strides to reduce our environmental impact;

Our multiple solar panel installations saved a combined 88,508kg of carbon (the equivalent of planting 5,355 trees).
We planted 10,000 native hedging plants and more than 60 trees.
We created 'pollinator patches' at five of our holiday parks.
We created or enhanced wildlife ponds at two of our holiday parks.
To date, our waste management partner has achieved a target of 0% of waste to landfill on every one of our parks, with 76% (330,277kg) of materials recycled.
We were named as finalists for the Sustainable Business Award at the prestigious Sedgemoor Business Excellence Awards, and Riverside Holiday Village was shortlisted for the Ethical, Responsible and Sustainable Tourism Award at the Bristol, Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards and the Environmental and Sustainability Award at the Somerset Business Awards.

However, we know that we can always do more and we look forward to working with our colleagues, partners and visitors as we continue our ‘green’ journey.

1. Community

1.1 Community Engagement Projects

Riverside Holiday Village will register to join the growing community of more than 5,100 Warm Welcome Spaces across the UK. We will provide a warm, welcoming, safe space where individuals can connect and make new friends in the community.

To help combat social isolation during the winter months, we will also develop a schedule of Warm Space Activities.

1.2 Community Environmental Projects

According to Keep Britain Tidy , more than 2 million pieces of litter are dropped in the UK every day at a cost of £1 billion to the taxpayer.

Providing a clean and attractive destination for our visitors to enjoy not only benefits our business, it also positively impacts our local community and the wider environment. We will commit to organising local litter picking events around our holiday parks.

2. Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity

2.1 Access Guide

There are an estimated 16 million people in the UK with some form of disability, each with individual needs.

So, to help visitors with additional needs to make their own assessment of whether our park is suitable for their unique requirements, we will create and publish a comprehensive access guide for Riverside Holiday Village.

2.2 Sensory Play

Last year, we revealed plans for a new Meadow Walk and Sensory Play at Riverside Holiday Village. The groundwork for this project is now nearing completion and we aim to open this new facility in the summer.

Sensory play is a fantastic way of getting children to learn and have fun through playground equipment that stimulates their senses, and is particularly rewarding for autistic children. We hope that these additions will prove popular with visitors and have selected musical and tactile play items to aid with intellectual, social and emotional development, sensory stimulation, self-expression and memory skills.

2.3 Accessibility Upgrades

To provide greater access for visitors with mobility issues, we will double the number of disabled parking bays at Riverside Holiday Village. We will also provide an ‘all terrain’ wheelchair for visitors to borrow during their stay.

3. Renewable Energy and Carbon Management

3.1 EV Charging

We have already seen fantastic results from our multi-park solar panel installation, both in terms of ‘green’ energy production and carbon saving.

However, we aim to take our on-site renewable energy even further. We are currently in talks with two major green energy providers, with plans to provide large-scale EV charging facilities at, at least one of our holiday parks.

4. Biodiversity

4.1 Habitats and Refuges for Wildlife

The extensive areas of ‘natural’ habitats at several of our holiday parks provide the ideal opportunity for us to further support native biodiversity by creating wildlife refuges and habitats for native species.

West Country Parks have committed to creating the following habitats and refuges;

- Pollinator patches, where bees, butterflies and other insects can get food and shelter

- Additional wildlife ponds

- Bird and bat boxes

- Otter Holts

5. Waste

5.1 Single-Use Plastic

Single-use plastic continues to be one of the leading contributors of marine plastic pollution.

Last year, Riverside Holiday Village began our ‘plastic free’ journey, working with Plastic Free Communities to achieve the Plastic Free Champion Award . This year, we will build on this foundation by removing some of the worst offending single-use plastic items from our park.

We look forward to updating you of our progress throughout the year. Find out more about our Green Policy .

Riverside Holiday Village named Holiday Park of the Year

Mon, 09 Dec 2024 14:33:19 GMT

Riverside Holiday Village named Holiday Park of the Year at the Bristol, Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards 2024

We are delighted to share that Riverside Holiday Village has been named the Holiday Park of the Year at this year's Bristol, Bath and Somerset Tourism Awards held at Batch Country House at Lympsham in Somerset. This award recognises holiday parks, sites and villages that provide exceptional guest experiences across static vans, touring pitches and more with a wide range of facilities and entertainment.

Marketing Executive, Kim Boyd, was also named Unsung Hero . The Unsung Hero Award recognises an individual working for a tourism business who excels in their role and deserves to be applauded for their work and commitment to the industry.

Awards Director Nell Barrington said “For many it has been a really challenging year but tonight was all about celebration and recognising those businesses who go above and beyond every day to ensure every visitor has a fantastic, truly memorable experience. It is great that they get recognition for all their efforts and my sincere congratulations go to them for everything they do to put Bristol, Bath, Somerset and beyond on the map.”

Giles Adams from VisitSomerset continued “I am delighted that the core ethos and hard work of Somerset tourism businesses is continuously recognised. Our county is all about authenticity and giving value for money. The awards help to ensure that our consumers understand and value what we all represent by recognising and rewarding our quality offer.”

Kathryn Davis from VisitWest told us “We are thrilled that so many of our businesses have been rewarded for all their incredible achievements this year with their success at the awards and look forward to seeing some of our winners hopefully progress into the national Visit England for Excellence finals next year. We have so many iconic destinations and world class experiences in the region, it is important to remember to celebrate this, and that tourism doesn’t just happen. It is thanks to the investment, creativity and hard work of these businesses that make our visitor economy so valuable, worth more than £2.5bn just to the West of England. While this sector is largely made up of many small businesses, together they are incredibly powerful and thoroughly deserve the recognition received this evening.”

We would like to thank our visitors, supporters and all of our fantastic team for your support.

Green Goals Update, Quarter 3 2024

Thu, 03 Oct 2024 12:57:12 GMT

Nine months have passed since we shared our Green Goals for 2024 and we're not slowing down!

Between April and June 2024, we achieved ‘Plastic Free Champion’ status, successfully completed the David Bellamy Blooming Marvellous ‘Tree-mendous’ Challenge, began assessing the opportunity for EV charging solutions at our parks and joined the North Somerset Breast Feeding Welcome Scheme.

And despite this summer being our busiest ever, we’ve still found time to make plans for the Autumn;

1. Pollinator Patches

Several of our parks successfully participated in Butterfly Conservations’ Big Butterfly Count this August. Sadly, it has been reported that the result of this years Big Butterfly Count ‘show a marked and hugely concerning decline in butterfly numbers.’ So much so, that Butterfly Conservation has declared a national 'Butterfly Emergency'.

Dr Richard Fox, Head of Science at Butterfly Conservation reflected;

‘Butterflies are a key indicator species - when they are in trouble, we know that the wider environment is in trouble too. Nature is sounding the alarm call. We must act now if we are to turn the tide on these rapid declines and protect species for future generations.’

With this in mind we have committed to introducing dedicated ‘Pollinator Patches’, areas where bees, butterflies and other insects can get food and shelter, at all of our Holiday Parks.

2. Meadow Walk and Sensory Play

In our ongoing commitment to looking after our parks’ green areas in a sympathetic and appropriate way in order to support the increase in biodiversity, plans are in place to introduce a new Meadow Walk and Sensory Play Area at Riverside Holiday Village.

By implementing a meadow management regime, we will allow native grasses and flowers to grow; creating a new habitat for birds, insects and many other forms of wildlife, whilst also reducing our organic waste.

New sensory play equipment will be scattered throughout the Meadow Walk for children and families to enjoy away from the hustle and bustle as they explore their surroundings. Sensory play is particularly rewarding for autistic children and we have selected items to aid with intellectual, social and emotional development, sensory development, sensory stimulation, self-expression and memory skills.

We still have a lot of work to do! And we look forward to updating you of our progress later in the year.

5 Reasons why Riverside Holiday Village is the best campervan site near Weston-super-Mare

Wed, 31 Jul 2024 13:05:09 GMT

Find out more about our camping and campervan site near Weston-super-Mare

Campervans and motorhomes provide the perfect getaway option for couples or families to enjoy an impromptu break. But what makes a good campervan site? Read on as we discuss 5 reasons why we think that we’re one of the best campervan sites near Weston-super-Mare.

Fantastic Facilities

Onboard facilities are one of the main attractions of owning a campervan versus camping. However, with limited space on board, very few campervans have both a fully functioning kitchen and bathroom, which is why it’s important to choose a campervan site with fantastic facilities. And our campervan site near Weston-super-Mare has some fantastic facilities!

Situated beside the camping field, our brand-new utilities block has been purpose built for the demands of modern camping with toilet, shower and washroom facilities, plus an area for washing dishes and an outside tap.

And if you tire of preparing and cooking your own food, our onsite bar and restaurant offers fantastic value, plus a takeaway service.

Great Pitches

Exactly what makes a great campervan pitch is up for debate, but one thing that we can all agree on is space.

For fire safety reasons, UK campsites generally allow for at least 6m. Here at Riverside Holiday Village, our camping and campervan pitches are a whopping 7m x 10m, allowing plenty of room for an awning, table and chairs or BBQ.

The majority of our pitches provide electric hook-up for all of your onboard appliances, and wireless internet access is also available.

Good Transport Links

Campervans are great for last-minute getaways, but they’re less well designed for manoeuvring into tight parking spots, and packing up all of your stuff every time you leave the campsite can be a pain.

So, if you’re planning on taking day-trips into Weston-super-Mare during your visit, you’ll be pleased to learn that local transport links are located right outside of our campsite. The number 20 bus provides a regular service to Weston-super-Mare, Uphill, Brean and Burnham-on-Sea.

Beautiful Scenery

The joy of any kind of camping is being able to throw open your door in the morning to beautiful scenery, and that’s exactly what you’ll get here at Riverside Holiday Village.

Our campervan site boasts a stunning riverside location, with picturesque views of the river Axe. Set within the beautiful Mendip Hills, we are surrounded by beautiful walking trails, and Bleadon Levels Nature Reserve is right on our doorstep, with 27 hectares of grassland and wetland habitats to explore.

Somewhere to Swim

Many people relish the chance to take a daily dip whilst on holiday, and if you’ve got kids, finding a campsite with a swimming pool is probably high on your wish list.

Here at Riverside Holiday Village, campers will have full access to our indoor heated pool and separate tots ‘splash pool’. And the best bit? There’s no extra charge to use the pool, access to all of our amenities is included in your booking fee.

Our riverside camping and campervan site near Weston-super-Mare is new for 2024 and has opened to rave reviews from visitors.

"Good sized pitches, nice new, clean toilets/showers. A really good setup for a new campsite. Also, very picturesque, with easy access to the riverside alongside the Axe. Excellent choice of drinks in the bar, all quite fairly priced. Very friendly and helpful staff." (Pitchup)

"Immaculate facilities, friendly staff. Lots to do for the children. There's a bus stop just out the front that takes you into Weston and takes around 10 minutes. Lovely swimming pool." (Pitchup)

"The site was beautiful and not busy at all. Showers & toilet block was perfect and less than a minute stroll from where we were pitched. The swimming pool was fabulous for my children as were the two parks. A 7-minute drive got us to the beach in Weston super mare. Overall, it was a fabulous stay and we would definitely return."

Get out for the Big Butterfly Count this July and August!

Tue, 23 Jul 2024 14:24:22 GMT

The Big Butterfly Count is back from 12 July - 4 August 2024

Leading wildlife charity, Butterfly Conservation , has revealed the dates of this year’s highly anticipated Big Butterfly Count , which will take place from 12 July - 4 August.

The annual citizen science programme attracts tens of thousands of people out into their garden, local green space or the countryside to spend 15 minutes counting butterflies and helping to inform conservation action .

We are asking visitors to get involved and join us at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare on Thursday 1st August from 2.00pm - 2.15pm.

Event: The Big Butterfly Count

Date: Thursday 1st August from 2.00 - 2.15pm at Riverside Holiday Village (meet us near the fishing lake)

Hot on the heels of scientific evidence that proves counting butterflies is good for your mental health and wellbeing, reducing anxiety by almost 10%, the charity is calling on people to get out for the Count this summer.

Dr Zoë Randle, Senior Surveys Officer at Butterfly Conservation said: ‘We need as many people as possible to take part in this year’s Big Butterfly Count to help us see what’s happening with our butterflies and moths .

‘We’re getting reports that although many species have been seen early this year, likely due to the very warm early spring, sightings are actually down, which is probably a result of the very wet and windy weather. So people getting out and counting will be invaluable in helping us to gauge what’s going on!’

Butterfly Conservation’s Big Butterfly Count is the largest citizen-science project of its kind and is a positive way that everyone can help. As well as contributing to important scientific data collection, taking part in the Count is a great way to enjoy time outdoors, connect with nature and have fun.

Whether done with friends and family, or in a moment of quiet calm and solitude, the Big Butterfly Count is free, fun and takes just 15 minutes . It is open to anyone, of any age, in any part of the UK - towns, cities or the countryside. No green space is too small - a back garden, a small terrace or balcony with some pot plants, a public park, allotment or country lane are all important spaces to explore, track and report.

Last year more than 135,000 Counts took place up and down the country, with participants spending a combined total of almost four years counting butterflies. The information gathered helps scientists to understand how butterflies and moths are faring, informs conservation projects, government policies and supports other experts with their research and vital work to protect our planet.

Dr Zoë Randle said: ‘In total, over 1.5 million butterflies and day-flying moths were recorded in last year’s Count, with the Red Admiral reigning supreme with almost 250,000 sightings. This was the first time this iconic species hit the top spot and we’re curious to see whether the warmer winter will enable it to keep its number one position or whether another species will come out on top this year.’

This year’s Big Butterfly Count runs from Friday 12 July - Sunday 4 August. For more information and to take part simply visit www.bigbutterflycount.org or download the free Big Butterfly Count app.

Green Goals Update, Quarter 2 2024

Wed, 03 Jul 2024 13:36:22 GMT

Six months have passed since we shared our Green Goals for 2024 and we continue to make fantastic progress!

Between January and March 2024, we measurably reduced our plastic footprint, began recycling food waste, partnered with Brean Bike Hire, supported North Somerset Councils ‘Greening the Hight Street’ initiative and planted 10,000 native hedging plants and 40 trees - read our Quarter 1 Updates for more info.

And our momentum hasn’t slowed during the spring! Over the last 3 months;

1. Single-Use Plastic

Our popular Riverside Holiday Village has achieved ‘Plastic Free Champion’ status.

Visitors to the Kingfisher Club at Riverside Holiday Village will notice that we have replaced plastic takeaway boxes and cutlery with eco-friendly recyclable takeaway boxes and compostable wooden cutlery. Plastic coffee cups have been eliminated, and single-use plastic condiment sachets have been replaced with a refillable ‘pump-station’ with paper cups.

2. Conservation of Wildlife and Biodiversity

We have successfully completed the David Bellamy Blooming Marvellous ‘Tree-mendous’ Challenge .

The David Bellamy Blooming Marvellous Pledge for Nature is an exciting scheme which allows holiday parks across Great Britain to demonstrate their commitment to helping our native wildlife. To complete the ‘Tree-mendous’ challenge, parks have to demonstrate that they have planted native trees - and that’s exactly what we’ve done - 40 of them, plus 10,000 native hedging plants! Find out more about our Riverbank Regeneration Project .

Additionally, in our ongoing commitment to support the increase in biodiversity at our holiday parks, 28 apple trees have been planted at Edithmead Leisure and Park Homes which, in time, will become a community orchard.

3. Renewable Energy and Carbon Management

Unfortunately, feasibility studies into the suitability of utilising hydro and wind energy at several of our parks have proven both options to be unsuitable. However, not to be beaten, we are now assessing the opportunity for EV charging solutions, beginning with Riverside Holiday Village and Edithmead Leisure and Park Homes.

4. Community Projects

Aiming to support new mums, Riverside Holiday Village has joined the North Somerset Breast Feeding Welcome Scheme . Run by North Somerset Council, the scheme highlights venues (like Riverside) where women can comfortably breastfeed.

So, as you can see, we’re well on our way to meeting our Green Goals for 2024 and we look forward to updating you of our progress later in the year.

Free things to do in Weston-super-Mare

Tue, 23 Apr 2024 11:19:38 GMT

Our top free things to do in Weston-super-Mare

Keeping your family entertained during your next camping trip to Weston-super-Mare doesn't have to be expensive. In fact, it doesn't have to cost anything at all!

Here are our top 10 free places to visit in Weston-super-Mare;

Weston-super-Mare Beach

Visitors have been flocking to Weston-super-Mare to enjoy a seaside break since Queen Victoria was on the throne, and no visit would be complete without a trip to Weston Beach.

With around 2 miles of wonderful sand and boasting the second highest tidal range in the world, it’s completely free to visit Weston-super-Mare Beach (although parents may be persuaded to pay for a donkey ride or two)!

So, pack your bucket and spade, slap on your sun cream and spend a day at the seaside!

Marine Lake

Just a short walk from the town centre, Marine Lake is an affinity lake and is said to be the largest of its kind in the world.

Providing a safer place to swim year-round in Weston-super-Mare, Marine Lake is a free place to swim and has become a popular place for water sports.

At over 200 metres long, Marine Lake is perfect for swimming laps or for splashing around on the water’s edge!

Grove Park and Clarence Park

Both Grove Park and Clarence Park are just a short walk from the town centre.

Containing Jills Garden, in memory of local TV presenter Jill Dando, there’s lots to explore in Grove Park, and it is well used by residents and visitors to Weston-super-Mare.

In the north area of the park, you’ll find a children's play area and rock garden with ponds, and to the south, a bandstand which hosts free music events during the summer months. There are also two War Memorials and an abundance of (mostly) friendly grey squirrels!

Clarence Park also has its fair share of squirrels! It’s a just a few minutes from the sea front and has a great play area for children, plus lots of green space to run around. Pack your own picnic or pick something up from the parks’ cafe.

Weston Museum

Weston Museum is another great day out for the entire family and admission to the museum is completely free! Discover the history of Weston-super-Mare and the surrounding area from prehistoric times to the present day.

Weston Museum hosts some excellent exhibits and is currently (April 2024) home to the Dismaland Pinwheel, which has been loaned to the museum by the artist Banksy.

Uphill Nature Reserve and Hill Walk

Located to the south of the village of Uphill, take a stroll South along Weston Beach to find Uphill Nature Reserve and Hill Walk .

The 17-hectare site has been designated as a Site of Specific Scientific Interest (SSSI) and the hill is part of the Mendip Limestone Grasslands Special Area of Conservation (SAC), supporting a diverse flora and valuable insect habitat.

The Tidal Trail runs through the West of the reserve and there are public footpaths across the hill. And if all that walking doesn’t tire you out, a tower tops the hill that can be climbed to reveal some stunning panoramic views.

Bleadon Levels Nature Reserve

Situated just 5 miles South of Weston-super-Mare, Bleadon Levels Nature Reserve spans 27 hectares and consists of various grassland and wetland habitats.

If you’re staying at our Riverside Holiday Village or campsite, simply exit the park onto Accommodation Road and travel West onto Wayacre Drove. You’ll find the nature reserve on your left.

Take your time to explore the footpaths and you may be lucky enough to spot wild otters or hares. Spend some time in the bird hides located along the lagoon and you’ll probably see some ducks, waders and skylarks. And the best bit? Admission is free!

Sand Point and Middle Hope

Enjoy a 3-mile circular coastal walk around Sand Point and Middle Hope , just North of Weston-super-Mare. With its ample birdlife, 13 ^th century priory and stunning views across Sand Bay, remember to pack a picnic!

Please be aware that access to the coastal walk is free, however, if you’re not a member of the National Trust, you will have to pay to use the carpark (£5 as of April 2024).

Uphill Skate Park

If extreme sports are more your thing, Uphill Skate Park could be the perfect free place for you to visit in Weston-super-Mare!

Specifically designed for ‘street’ riders, Uphill Skate Park boasts banks, a selection of ledges, manual pads and rails built on a tarmac base.

Weston Wall Street Art

For the last three years, The Upfest Weston Wallz project has been transforming the town and now, Weston-super-Mare has one of the largest outdoor collections of street art in the South West.

Spend a day discovering more than 40 pieces of original street art from some of the most talented artists around.

You can find your way around all the murals clicking the link below;

Weston Wallz - Street Art Map - Google My Maps

Worlebury Camp Hillfort

The camp can be accessed by a path from Weston Woods carpark and visitors will be rewarded by beautiful views across Sand Point and Brean Down, as well as panoramic views of Weston Bay.

Green Goals Update, Quarter 1 2024

Thu, 21 Mar 2024 10:50:59 GMT

Visitors may remember that earlier this year we shared our Green Goals for 2024 . We have made fantastic progress over the last 3 months and we are proud to share the first of our quarterly updates;

1. Organic Waste

Food waste in the UK is associated with around 20 million tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions every year. By recycling food waste, we can actively reduce our organisation’s carbon footprint.

From November 2023, all food waste from the Kingfisher Club at Riverside Holiday Village has been separated at source and removed by a licensed waste contractor. It is then taken to a local, state of the art anaerobic digestion plant where it is processed.

After processing, the solid by-product is used as a nutrient-rich organic fertiliser, coveted by farmers as a substitute for unsustainable fertilisers. The methane-rich biogas produced during the breakdown process is used either to generate renewable electricity for homes, or to produce enriched biomethane (a ‘green’ gas which can be used to provide transport fuel or to supply local homes).

2. Single-Use Plastic

Single-use plastic is a huge contributor of marine plastic pollution - studies suggest that by 2050 there could be more plastic than fish in the world’s oceans.

In an effort to measurably reduce our plastic footprint, we have replaced a number of single-use plastic items with environmentally friendly alternatives, including; cardboard takeaway boxes, paper straws, wooden cutlery and biodegradable carrier bags. We have also replaced individual plastic sauce packets with a refillable pump station.

To help visitors avoid single-use plastic water bottles, Riverside Holiday Village has also become a recognised ‘Refill Station’, providing refills of free drinking water.

3. Sustainable Travel Options

With 41.2 million licensed vehicles on the roads in the UK (June 2023), travel is one of the major contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions.

In order to help our visitors explore more sustainable transport options, we have partnered with Brean Bike Hire , who provide bike hire throughout Burnham-on-Sea and Brean. Brean Bike Hire offer a wide range of rental bikes (including mountain bikes, tandem bikes and kids’ bikes) which they will deliver to our guests to use for the duration of their stay.

4. Community Environmental Projects

Providing a clean and attractive destination for our visitors to enjoy not only benefits our business, it also positively impacts our local community and the wider environment. Which is why we are proud to support North Somerset Councils brand new ‘Greening the High Street’ initiative.

Aiming to implement long-term strategies for improving urban green spaces and introducing green social prescribing initiatives at Alexandra Parade in Weston-super-Mare, ‘Greening the High Street‘ aims to boost biodiversity, foster community resource and skills sharing, and create a more vibrant and welcoming environment within the urban landscape.

Our sponsorship will contribute towards supporting the ‘Greening the High Street Planters’ initiative.

5. Conservation of Wildlife and Biodiversity

Locally, nationally and globally, biodiversity is under threat from the impact of climate change and human actions. In our ongoing commitment to support the increase in biodiversity at our holiday parks, we have begun a Riverbank Regeneration Project .

To date, we have planted 10,000 bird friendly mixed native hedging plants and 40 Alder and Willow trees along the riverbank at Riverside Holiday Village. These plants will encourage birds, bats and invertebrates by providing a much-needed source of food and shelter for our native wildlife.

So, as you can see, we’re well on our way to meeting our Green Goals for 2024 and we look forward to updating you of our progress later in the year.

Riverbank Regeneration Project

Thu, 14 Mar 2024 12:59:52 GMT

Visitors to Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare will notice some changes to the riverbank this Spring

Visitors who are familiar with our Green Goals for 2024 will be aware of our organisation's ongoing commitment to looking after our parks' green areas in a sympathetic and appropriate way in order to support the increase in biodiversity.

Perhaps the two biggest challenges that we have set ourselves this season are to implement a meadow management regime of the grassland area at the rear of the park and to re-establish the hedgerow at the rear of the park. However, we are proud to announce that we have taken this challenge one step further by committing to a new 'Riverbank Regeneration Project' !

10,000 bird friendly mixed native hedging plants and 40 Alder and Willow trees are on their way to our Somerset holiday park and campsite, where they will be positioned and planted along the riverbank.

The carefully chosen premium mixture of bird friendly native species (including flowers, catkins, nuts and berries) will grow into a dense hedgerow; joining up disconnected habitats and encouraging birds, insects and many other forms of wildlife.

Alder and Willow trees thrive in wetter soil conditions and their large roots will stabilise the riverbank, reducing the threat of flooding. The trees will provide a source of food and shelter for birds, bats and invertebrates - and any tree debris (like leaves and branches) that find their way into the river will provide shade and shelter for spawning fish.

The leaves of both trees are a known food plant for the caterpillars of several species of moths and also provide an early source of nectar and pollen for bees. The seeds dropped by the Alder are an important food source for many bird species and the branches of the Willow will make good resting and roosting sites.

Our Riverbank Regeneration Project will also provide the ideal opportunity for us to further support native biodiversity by introducing wildlife refuges like bird and bat boxes for native species. And, of course, it will give our visitors a place to enjoy being surrounded by nature!

We have big plans for 2024! And we look forward to updating you of our progress.

Our Green Goals for 2024

Fri, 05 Jan 2024 12:45:39 GMT

At West Country Parks / Riverside Holiday Village we are committed to taking a proactive approach to help preserve the natural world for future generations to enjoy

The following Green Objectives provide an outline of how we will contribute to protecting and enhancing the environment over the next 12 months and beyond.

We have already taken huge strides to reduce our environmental impact, committing to a three-phase plan with zero carbon specialists Energy Oasis, which will see our holiday parks save a combined 58.50 tonnes of carbon per year (the equivalent of planting 2,690 trees every single year). We have also taken the David Bellamy Blooming Marvellous Pledge for Nature , and this year (2023) Riverside Holiday Village was awarded a ‘Silver’ Green Tourism Award .

However, we recognise there is still lots to do and we look forward to working with our colleagues, partners and visitors as we continue our ‘green’ journey.

1. Community

1.1 Community Environmental Projects

Providing a clean and attractive destination for our visitors to enjoy not only benefits our business, it also positively impacts our local community and the wider environment.

We will implement possible sponsorship opportunities for West Country Parks / Riverside Holiday village to support local litter picking / environmental groups.

2. Waste

2.1 Single-Use Plastic

Plastic bags cause the death of an estimated 100,000 marine animals globally and studies suggest that by 2050 there could be more plastic than fish in the world’s oceans. Single-use plastic (like straws, coffee cups, packaging and bags) is a huge contributor of marine plastic pollution. These are all impossible or very difficult to recycle and mostly end up at sea or in landfill.

At Riverside Holiday Village, we have committed to measurably reduce our organisations plastic footprint.

With the support of Plastic Free Communities , we will;

- Avoid plastic bottles

- Avoid plastic containers

- Ditch plastic bags

- Ditch plastic cups and cutlery

- Refill soap dispensers

We will also become a recognised ‘ Refill Station ’, providing refills of free drinking water for visitors.

2.2 Organic Waste

As part of our ongoing waste management plan, we will investigate the feasibility of a) composting organic waste on site, or b) sending organic waste to a licensed waste contractor for commercial composting.

We will also reduce our organic waste by introducing wildlife areas where the grass is cut less frequently (see 3.1 Conservation of Wildlife and Biodiversity).

3. Biodiversity

3.1 Conservation of Wildlife and Biodiversity

Locally, nationally and globally, biodiversity is under threat from the impact of climate change and human actions. Riverside Holiday Village have committed to looking after our green areas in a sympathetic and appropriate way in order to support the increase in biodiversity.

We will;

- Implement a meadow management regime of the grassland area at the rear of the park

- Reestablish the hedgerow at the rear of the park

3.2 Habitats and Refuges for Wildlife

West Country Parks have committed to creating the following habitats and refuges;

- Pollinator patches, where bees, butterflies and other insects can get food

- Additional wildlife ponds

- Bird and bat boxes

- Otter Holts

4. Planet

4.1 Renewable Energy and Carbon Management

We have already taken huge strides to ensure that our business uses renewable energy across our holiday parks. Our new multi-park solar panel installation has already improved the sustainability of our business, as well as reducing our overall environmental impact.

However, we aim to take our on-site renewable generation even further. With the support of Energy Oasis, we will conduct a feasibility study into the suitability of utilising hydro and wind energy.

We look forward to updating you of our progress throughout the year. Find out more about our Green Policy .

10 tips for camping in the rain with kids

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 12:55:43 GMT

Our Top Tips to enjoy family camping in the rain

We’ve all been there, the sun was shining when you booked your family camping trip, then you arrive at the campsite and the heavens open! But rainy weather doesn’t have to spoil your camping trip, we promise!

Take a seat and read on for our top tips to help you enjoy family camping in the rain.

1. Choose your pitch well

If it looks as though you're going to experience more than just a passing shower, it may pay you well to take a little extra time to choose your camping pitch.

If you can, pitch your tent on a natural slope with the entrance facing away from the incline. A little natural tree canopy will offer some shelter from the elements; however, you should avoid pitching under big trees with large branches.

2. Bring a canopy

Any additional 'covered' space is a bonus if you're camping in the rain with kids!

Bring a canopy to put over your table and you'll have an extra dry area to do some cooking or somewhere for the kids to play some games without getting wet. And, in the evening, you'll have somewhere dry to sit and enjoy some peace whilst the kids are sleeping!

3. Assume that your tent will leak!

At the risk of sounding pessimistic, somewhere, at some time, your tent will probably leak!

Plan ahead and pack perishables in waterproof plastic containers instead of the cardboard packaging they usually come in to avoid tantrums at breakfast time, when your kids favourite chocolately cereal has been ruined by an inconveniently placed leak.

Plastic tote boxes can also be a life saver when it comes to keeping clothes or bedding dry. The last thing you want is to start the day with wet clothes!

4. Pack some rainy-day games

Travel edition board games are an essential if it looks like it's going to rain for a prolonged period during your camping trip. Aside from travel classics like 4 in a Row, Battleships and Drafts, plenty of your favourite board games have also been adapted for travel, with compact, lightweight (often pocket sized) packaging which will easily fit into a rainy-day bag or rucksack. These include family favourites like Scrabble, Cluedo, Uno and even Monopoly.

There's also a whole universe of unique card games out there to explore. With instant classics like Top Trumps, Unstable Unicorns (Kids Edition), Gangsta Granny's Cheat and (if you're 6) the hilariously named May Contain Butts to discover, you may never want to leave your tent again!

5. Use the campsite amenities

Family campsites like ours often provide a wealth of amenities for visitors to enjoy. Book your next camping trip at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare and you'll find plenty to keep the whole family entertained - even on those rainy days.

Younger visitors will enjoy hours of fun splashing around in our indoor heated pool or testing their gaming skills at our amusement arcade, whilst parents can relax and enjoy a well-earned drink at our recently refurbished clubhouse with sports bar.

Find out more about camping at Riverside Holiday Village

6. Take a day trip

If the rain has set in and you've exhausted the campsite facilities, take a day trip.

The seaside town of Weston-super-Mare is just a few minutes' drive from our family campsite, with plenty of indoor activities to keep you out of the rain. Take a look at our list of Rainy-Day Activities in Weston-super-Mare for some inspiration.

7. Go swimming

Swimming in the rain can be a wonderful experience, so long as you do so safely.

Year-round swimming is available at nearby Marine Lake in Weston-super-Mare , a safe enclosed beach situated right on the seafront. At over 200 metres long, Marine Lake is perfect for swimming laps or for splashing around on the water's edge.

8. Go out and get wet

Pack your waterproofs and wellies and go out and get wet!

Our riverside campsite is set within the beautiful Mendip Hills and is surrounded by stunning walking trails. So, if the weather's warm enough and there's no lightning, why not get out and explore?

Fishing in the rain can also be more bountiful than when the weather is fine. The River Axe flows through our campsite, so get yourself a fishing rod from our on-site shop, head down to the river and see what's biting!

10 Interesting Facts about Cheddar Gorge and Caves

Mon, 11 Sep 2023 09:00:50 GMT

Tolkien, Cannibalism and Bros - 10 facts that you might not know about Cheddar Gorge and Caves!

With a history dating back 1.2million years, Cheddar Gorge and Caves has undoubtedly held its share of secrets.

Standing strong through Roman Invasions, Norman Conquests, Civil Wars, religious and political conflicts, the Industrial Revolution, two World Wars and a pandemic, Cheddar Gorge and Caves has seen it all!

But, here are 10 interesting facts that you might not know about Cheddar Gorge and Caves;

1. Flooding created the Gorge 1.2 million years ago

Cheddar Gorge and caves began forming 1.2million years ago during the last Ice Age. Water from melting glaciers formed a river, which over time started to wear into the limestone rocks, creating the stunning cliffs that we can see today.

The river eventually found its way underground, forming the caves.

2. The oldest human skeleton discovered in Britain was found in Gough's Cave in Cheddar Gorge

Cheddar Man, a Mesolithic skeleton, was discovered in 1903 in Gough's Cave in Cheddar Gorge. Cheddar Man lived around 10,000 years ago, making him the oldest 'almost complete' skeleton discovered in Britain to date.

Cheddar Man is currently on loan to the Natural History Museum where his skeleton and facial reconstruction are on display.

3. Rare cave art has been discovered in Gough's Cave in Cheddar Gorge

Cave art is very rare in Britain and the cave art in Gough's Cave in Cheddar Gorge is limited to one small example. The 13,000 year old carving of a mammoth is only the second piece of representational cave art found in Britain to date.

4. Evidence of cannibalism has been uncovered in the caves

In 2013, the Natural History Museum published a report suggesting rather gruesome evidence of mutilation and cannibalistic rituals at Cheddar Gorge and Caves. Prehistoric remains of several individuals (including children) were found showing clear evidence of ritualistic cannibalism, including skullcaps that had been carefully shaped to create cups or bowls.

The human 'skull-cups' found at Gough's Cave are the earliest directly dated examples known. You can take a look at these at the Museum of Prehistory at Cheddar Gorge and Cave.

5. Cheddar Gorge and Caves in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a Site of Specific Scientific Interest

The stunning Cheddar Gorge and Caves have been recognised as both an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). As such, they have been safeguarded in the 'national interest' to protect and enhance the natural landscape and wildlife.

6. Botanists discovered three new species of Whitebeams in Cheddar Gorge

Cheddar Gorge is an important site for Whitebeams (a deciduous broadleaf tree) and in 2009 a survey carried out by the Welsh National Herbarium as part of a nationwide study identified three new species of Whitebeams previously unknown to science. These were named the 'Cheddar Whitebeam', 'Twin Cliffs Whitebeam' and 'Gough's Rock Whitebeam'.

7. Endangered Horseshoe Bats can be found at Cheddar Gorge and Caves

There are approximately 100 greater and lesser Horseshoe Bats living in Gough's Cave at Cheddar Gorge. These naturally cave-dwelling bats are protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981. With their numbers in decline, visitors to Gough's Cave have the rare opportunity to experience these creatures in their natural environment.

8. Cheddar Gorge and Caves inspired JRR Tolkien's fantasy epic The Lord of the Rings

Fans of Tolkien's fantasy epic, The Lord of the Rings, will be excited to learn that Tolkien himself acknowledged that the caves at Cheddar Gorge inspired the fortress of Helms Deep, a fortified Gorge in the White Mountains of Middle Earth and the location of the Battle of Hornburg, where the Isengard-host of Saruman were finally defeated by the Army of Rohan.

Tolkien visited Cheddar Gorge on his honeymoon, and again in 1940, just before writing the passages in The Two Towers (the second book in the trilogy).

9. Cheddar Cheese is still aged in the caves at Cheddar Gorge

We can't talk about Cheddar without thinking about their delicious Cheddar cheese! But, did you know that The Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company still mature their cheese within Cheddar Gorge's natural caves today?

10. Cheddar Village was the childhood home of two 80's heartthrobs!

Fans of 80's boy band, Bros, may already know that Cheddar Village was the childhood home of Bros members Matt and Luke Goss! Jack Bessant, of the band Reef grew up nearby too, and 8-time World Professional Darts Champion, Trina Gulliver, also lives in Cheddar.

Which brings us to the end of our list. We hope that you've found these facts interesting. If we've inspired you to find out more about Cheddar Gorge and Caves and you need somewhere to stay, our peaceful adult-only campsite is located less than 3 miles away.

West Country Parks tackling climate change with Energy Oasis

Thu, 26 Jan 2023 13:53:50 GMT

Working to reduce our Carbon Footprint

We are excited to announce that West Country Parks has partnered with Energy Oasis as we commit to doing our part to tackle climate change. Inspired by the opportunity to create a world that future generations can enjoy, the Energy Oasis team of zero carbon specialists are working closely with our team to help us to reduce our carbon footprint.

Since 1972, it has been our aim to provide wonderful, cost-effective domestic holiday options for our visitors. It is important to us that, as a business, we act now to help preserve the natural world for future generations to enjoy.

Through our partnership with Energy Oasis, we have committed to a three-phase plan that will see our business use less fossil fuels whilst providing future energy security across our holiday parks.

Phase 1 of this plan is currently under way at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare - with Solar PV installation taking place at the park. The new system will provide 136,510kWh per year, enabling us to significantly reduce our reliance on fossil fuels to power the park's numerous facilities. This initial step will see our business save 31.81 tonnes of carbon per year, the equivalent of planting 1,464 trees, every single year.

Group Manager, David Tattersall, said on the partnership;

“We are delighted to partner with Energy Oasis. As our business is reliant on visitors coming to enjoy the stunning Somerset countryside, we feel that it is our responsibility to do everything that we can to help repair the planet and reduce our carbon footprint.”

The work in developing our business is an ongoing process and details of the further phases of our plan will emerge over the next year, as we continue to maintain our responsibility towards energy usage.

Best Coastal Walks in Somerset

Wed, 31 Aug 2022 14:25:40 GMT

8 Coastal Walks near our Somerset Holiday Parks

The beautiful county of Somerset offers a dramatic coastline rich with coastal walks, sensational views and interesting places to explore.

Spanning much of the length of the Bristol Channel, one of the UK's busiest waterways, the Somerset coast is just minutes from many of the county's most popular towns - making it the ideal location for a short break or weekend away at one of our Somerset Holiday Parks .

So, pull on your walking boots, dig out your compass and read on for some of the best coastal walks in Somerset;

The England Coast Path in Somerset

Stretching 58 miles from Brean Down to Minehead, the England Coast Path in Somerset will take you on a journey through the sandy beaches of Berrow and Burnham-on-Sea, along the River Parrett to the Victorian docks of Bridgwater before turning back to the Salt Marshes of Steart Point and the Bridgwater Bay Nature Reserve. Search for fossils on the Jurassic Beaches between Lilstock and Blue Anchor where the towering cliff formations have been classified as a Site of Specific Scientific Interest. Continue past the harbour town of Watchet and follow the coastal path as it shadows the West Somerset Steam Railway through Dunster, where you can take a detour to visit Dunster Castle, before ending your journey in Minehead on the south bank of the Bristol Channel.

This path is great to divide up over a number of days so that you have plenty of time to enjoy each location. Visit nationaltrail.co.uk for a complete 4-day itinerary of the England Coast Path in Somerset.

Many of the following coastal walks will take you along sections of the England Coast Path;

Weston-super-Mare to Burnham-on-Sea

You can walk this 8-mile coastal trail either starting in Weston-super-Mare and finishing in Burnham-on-Sea, or starting in Burnham-on-Sea and ending in Weston-super-Mare - the choice is yours! Either way, we suggest that you take a detour via Brean Down where you'll enjoy spectacular dual aspect views of both seaside towns. A National Trust managed promontory and natural pier, Brean Down shows signs of life dating back to 10,000BC and is also home to a Napoleonic Fort. And whichever town you end up in, you’ll be spoilt for choice with plenty of bars, cafes and restaurants to enjoy a well-earned treat!

Portishead to Clevedon Pier

Explore the 6-mile trail linking Portishead to Clevedon and you'll pass several beautiful beaches along the way including Sugar Loaf Beach, Charlcombe Bay, Pigeon House Bay and Blackhill Sands - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Finish your day in Clevedon and you could visit Clevedon Pier, the only Grade 1 listed pier in England, or take a dip in the town’s tidal infinity pool.

Birnbeck Pier to Sand Bay

Generally considered an easy trail, you'll begin at Birnbeck Pier in Weston-super-Mare, which was largely abandoned in favour of the Grand Pier in 1930’s. This coastal walk spans 6 miles with fantastic views of the Bristol Channel. On the way to Sand Bay, you'll encounter lots of local amenities, and if you don't feel like taking the trail back to Weston, you can always take a ride back on the open-top bus!

Berrow to Brean Down

Set-off from Berrow Beach during low tide and you'll see the remains of the Norwegian barque SS Nornen, wrecked on Berrow Beach in 1897. Follow the 5-mile coastal path north to Brean Down and you'll find yourself immersed in glorious countryside with spectacular sea views along the way.

Minehead to Porlock

Begin this 9-mile trek in Minehead woods and you'll emerge high on the cliffs, where your efforts will be rewarded with stunning views of the Bristol Channel. Much of the coastline is under the care of the National Trust and if you approach Porlock beach during low tide you'll catch a glimpse of a submerged forest!

Blue Anchor to Dunster Beach

An easy 8-mile ramble along the Somerset Coast Path. This walk takes you through varied scenery, from the rolling hills between Blue Anchor and Watchet, to the flat expanse of Dunster Beach. And if 8 miles isn't long enough for you, you can continue on to Minehead Beach.

Watchet to Minehead

The picturesque harbour town of Watchet is well worth a visit, even if you decide to swerve the coastal walk! Set-off from the harbour, out of the town and onto the coastal path and you’ll be met with spectacular views along the clifftop. Follow the path through glorious woodland and fields until you emerge in Blue Anchor, where you could stop for refreshments at the Blue Anchor Pub. Pick-up the costal path again and continue past the village of Dunster. Eventually you will find yourself in Minehead, where the West Somerset Coast Path ends and the South West Coast path begins.

So, as you can see, Somerset has some fantastic coastal walks for you to experience, and our Somerset holiday parks are the perfect base from which to plan your next trip. Whether you have a caravan, motorhome, tent or want to experience Somerset from a static caravan or lodge, we have holiday parks for any style of break.

Top Visitor Attractions near our Cheddar Campsite

Fri, 08 Apr 2022 12:11:23 GMT

Our top 10 attractions to visit whilst camping in Cheddar

Cheddar may be most famous for its Cheddar Cheese, caves and clifftop walks, but this picturesque Somerset village has much more to offer.

Book your next camping trip at our Cheddar campsite, the Rodney Stoke Caravan and Camping Park and read on for our top 10 visitor attractions in Cheddar.

1. Cheddar Gorge and Caves

An international centre for caving and rock climbing, Cheddar Gorge and Caves are less than 3 miles from our campsite, offering numerous attractions including cliff-top walks, rock climbing and the Museum of pre-history.

At 400ft deep and 3 miles long, the Gorge is one of Britain’s most spectacular natural landmarks – and areas of the mysterious caves are over 500,000 years old! With over 20 different attractions, Cheddar Gorge and Caves are definitely worth a visit.

2. The Original Cheddar Cheese Company

No trip to Cheddar would be complete without sampling some local Cheddar Cheese!

Pay a visit to the Original Cheddar Cheese Company , the oldest Cheddar cheese shop in the world, and you’ll find a fantastic selection of farmhouse cider, chutneys, pickles and cheeses, including traditional cloth matured farmhouse cheese!

3. Cheddar Village

Picturesque Cheddar village is well worth exploring. There are plenty of tearooms, restaurants, pubs and shops where you can pick up souvenirs, walking gear and, of course, more Cheddar cheese!

The lower gorge (on your way out of the village) also boasts a series of mini waterfalls as you head towards the Cliff Road, and the Market Cross dates back to the fifteenth century.

4. Cheddar Reservoir

Supplied with water from the Cheddar Yeo River in Cheddar Gorge, Cheddar Reservoir is perfect for visitors who want to try their hand at some managed water sports! Paddle boarding, kayaking and canoeing are just some of the activities on offer through the Bristol Corinthian Yacht Club .

Known for its large Pike, Tench, Perch and Eels, Cheddar Reservoir is also a great fishing location. Day tickets are just £6 per day (April 2022) and must be purchased in advance.

5. Cheddar Crazy Golf

Fun for all ages! With spectacular views, Cheddar Crazy Golf is located in the heart of Cheddar Gorge, opposite Jacob’s Ladder.

Constructed using natural water worn stone from Cheddar Gorge, the 18-hole miniature golf course even has its own water feature!

6. Cheddar Ales

Located at Winchester Farm on the edge of Cheddar Village, Cheddar Ales is an independent artisanal brewery who produce a fantastic range of regular and seasonal beers.

The tap room is an easy stroll from the village, serving a fabulous range of Cheddar ales plus local cider and gin. Brewery tours can also be arranged for larger groups and can be tailored to your every whim!

7. The Cider Barn

The Cider Barn is located just one mile from our Cheddar campsite, serving some great locally produced cider, classic pub snacks and an array or sourdough pizzas.

Priding themselves on their eccentric appearance, The Cider Barn is a fun place to visit!

8. St Andrew's Church

Visitors with an interest in local history may like to spend some time at St Andrew’s Church.

Dating back to the 14th century, The Church of St Andrew in Cheddar contains some beautiful 15th century stained glass and the alter table is of the 1600’s. There are several memorials for servicemen in the graveyard and the chest tomb is believed to be to Sir Thomas Cheddar and is dated 1442.

9. Cheddar Boot Sale and Market

Located at Winchester Farm, just one mile from Cheddar Gorge, Cheddar Boot Sale and Market is open every Sunday.

With indoor and outdoor pitches, on-site parking, a large café, ice cream van and regular butchers, greengrocers, baker and cheesemongers, browsing the wares at Cheddar Market is a fantastic way to spend your morning or afternoon.

10. The Strawberry Line

Named after the delicious str awberries that this former railway line transported from Cheddar for nearly a century, The Strawberry Line is approx. 10 miles of (mainly) traffic free cycle path.

Running from Yatton Railway Station to Cheddar, you’ll pass cider apple orchards, wooded valleys and the spectacular Cheddar Gorge.

Bicycles are available for hire from Cheddar Bikes in the village.

So, as you can see, Cheddar is home to a diverse selection of visitor attractions! We hope that you get the chance to visit some during your next trip to Cheddar.

Our peaceful adult only campsite, The Rodney Stoke Caravan and Camping Park provides the perfect base from which to explore Cheddar and everything that the beautiful Somerset countryside has to offer.

Camping with Dogs | Advice and Tips

Thu, 10 Jun 2021 11:29:12 GMT

Our Top Tips to enjoy Camping with your Dogs

Camping holidays offer the perfect getaway for dog owners to enjoy a break without having to leave your pet behind. Our dog-friendly campsite in Cheddar is ideally located for you and your fur-babies to enjoy endless walking trails whilst immersing yourselves in the beautiful Somerset countryside.

Our peaceful adults-only campsite can be found less than 3 miles from the magnificent Cheddar Gorge and Caves , which are steeped in 500,000 years of history! The 4-mile circular Gorge Walk offers stunning views, plus the opportunity to encounter some local wildlife, and there are plenty of lesser-known walking trails for you and your pup to tackle!

If you’re going camping with your dog for the first time, it’s good to be properly prepared, so here are a few tips to get you started;

1. Make sure your dog is wearing a collar with tags, and that your contact details are up to date.

Should he or she wander off, you want to make it as easy as possible for the two of you to be reunited!

2. Have a practice run at home before you arrive at the campsite so your pet can familiarise themself with the smells and sounds of your new tent.

Set up a pet bed so your dog can get used to being in the tent, and give them plenty of praise and reassurance for their good behaviour!

3. Consider the distance.

Can your dog cope with the journey to your selected campsite? Travelling with your pet can sometimes be stressful, so we’ve prepared our top tips to make travelling with your dog that little bit easier.

4. Are there dog-friendly walks or activities nearby?

Check whether nearby parks and beaches allow pets. Our campsite is a just a short drive from the seaside town of Weston-super-Mare, and whilst restrictions apply to sections of the beach, our furry friends are welcome all year round in certain areas.

5. If you plan to eat out, check local pet friendly eateries.

The Rodney Stoke Inn is located in front of our campsite in Cheddar, with a large beer garden. And being a rural community, there are plenty of pet friendly venues to visit in and around Cheddar.

6. Check the park rules.

Do dogs need to stay on leads? Where can you dispose of your dog’s poo? Are there areas that your pet won’t be allowed? Pet friendly campsites are generally pretty reasonable about their expectations of pet owners, but make sure you understand the rules before your visit.

7. Just like cars, tents can heat up to dangerous temperatures in the warm weather.

Never leave your pet alone in the tent, and make sure that fresh drinking water is always available.

8. Make sure you have the details of a local vet.

Should your pet have an unexpected accident during your camping trip you won’t want to waste time getting your pet the treatment they require.

Camping with dogs – pack the essentials

Doggy first aid kit and any medication . As discussed, make sure you have the contact details for a local vet.
Pet food . If you don’t have space to bring bulky food packets, weigh enough food for the duration of your visit and pack it in an airtight container.
Poo bags . You will be responsible for clearing up after your pet during your camping trip.
Favourite toys . Your pet may need distracting whilst you’re setting up camp! Familiar items will help to keep them calm and relaxed.
Water proof pet bed . If you’re out and about on the campsite, it’s inevitable that your pet will get dirty or wet! Water proof pet beds are easy to keep dry and clean.
Towel . Your pet will get dirty or wet during your camping trip so make sure you pack a spare towel to keep them clean and dry!
Pet blanket . It can get cold at night if you’re sleeping in the great outdoors! Make sure you have a blanket to keep your pet warm.
Spare lead . Just in case!
Tether . Consider packing a tether if you know that your dog is prone to getting over excited. If you tether your pet he or she will have enough room to explore without disappearing to the other side of the campsite!
Water bowl . Your pet should always have access to fresh water during your travels.

We hope these tips make your next camping trip a little easier for both you and your pet.

Buying a Static Caravan | New v Used

Thu, 08 Apr 2021 10:31:03 GMT

Pros and cons of buying a static caravan | New v Used

Buying a static caravan is a big decision, and there's much more to consider than just how much money you want to spend, although this will of course influence your decision.

Just like buying a car, there are pros and cons to buying new or used when it comes to static caravans, and we'll do our best to discuss your options here;

Buying a used static caravan

If you're buying your first static caravan budget is likely to be your first consideration, and buying used is usually the most cost-effective option, but you may also be unsure of all of your requirements in terms of layout until you begin to use your static caravan. If you later decide that a different model may suit you better, it will be less costly to carry out any alterations or to trade-in for a different model if you buy a used static caravan.

Many used static caravans can be purchased in ‘as new’ condition for a fraction of the price of a new unit, however, in the event of any issues they are less likely to be covered under a manufacturers warranty.

You're also likely to find a greater variety of layouts if you buy a used static caravan, as older layouts are continuously replaced with new ones.

Plus, there's a greater opportunity to decorate and personalise a used static caravan to suit your own taste.

The pros of buying a used static caravan

Value for money
Choice of layouts
Opportunity to personalise

The cons of buying a used static caravan

No, or limited, warranty.

More maintenance may be required.

Used static caravans for sale at our caravan parks

Buying a new static caravan

Buying a new static caravan is an attractive option for many reasons; all new static caravans will come with a full manufacturer's warranty, so you won't have to worry about untidy finishes or faulty appliances. Absolutely everything is shiny, new and unused by anybody else!

And if gadgets are your thing, new static caravans are more likely to be equipped with the latest technology such as blue tooth lounge ceiling speakers and USB plugs and charging stations.

You may also find that the heating system is more effective in new units, saving on costs in the long-run.

However, if you're looking for a good financial investment, buying new is not a sensible option. Just like buying a car, static caravans do not increase in value. Use your new static caravan, enjoy it and build cherished memories, but don't expect it to make you any money!

10 ways that Duct Tape can help you at the Campsite

Sat, 20 Feb 2021 15:04:41 GMT

Keep these tips in mind on your next camping trip

Duct tape is strong, flexible and it adheres to a variety of surfaces, which makes it the ideal solution to a multitude of issues that you might encounter at the campsite.

Carry out a speedy repair to a damaged tent or sleeping bag, seal packets of food, or even fix a cracked water container - the possibilities are endless!

Top 10 uses for duct tape at the campsite

1. Repair a tear in your tent

Whether it's a tear in your tent, sleeping bag or even a camping chair, duct tape will provide an effective temporary repair in almost any situation.

For added strength apply the duct tape to both sides of the tear.

2. Fix a broken tent pole

Generally, tent poles are pretty robust, but should you arrive at the campsite to find that one of yours is damaged, find a suitable stick and use your duct tape to attach it to the damaged pole for extra reinforcement.

3. Seal packets of food

Opened food packets can attract wildlife to the campsite.

Use your trusty roll of duct tape to seal packets and keep unwanted visitors away! This will also help to keep your food fresh.

4. Make a fly trap

Flies and midges can be a real pain around the campsite, especially if you're close to a lake or river.

Try hanging strips of duct tape around your camp for a simple make-shift fly trap.

5. Keep your tent closed

Should your tent zip break during your camping trip, fear not! Simply use your roll of duct tape to tape the door shut until you can carry out a more permanent repair.

Duct tape can also be wrapped around small zippers to make them bigger and easier to find - so no more frantically searching for your sleeping bag zipper in the dark if you need to visit the bathroom in the middle of the night!

6. Cover a blister

If you're planning lots of walks or hiking during your camping trip, try placing a strip of duct tape on the heel of your foot before you set out.

Generally duct tape should be thicker and more adhesive than first-aid box plasters, so this should help to reduce the friction that causes blisters.

7. Fix a leaky water container

Duct tape is weather-proof so it's ideal for a temporary fix to a leaky water container.

Remeber to dry the surface that you're going to apply the duct tape to so that it can stick properly.

8. Repair broken wellies

Camping in the UK isn't always the driest of experiences, so you've probably got a good pair of wellies to take with you! But what if one starts to leak during your trip?

You've guessed it - reach for your roll of duct tape! As we've said, duct tape is weatherproof, so stick some inside of your leaky wellie to provide a temporary seal.

9. Protect broken lights

Accidents can happen on the campsite, especially if you're trying to manoeuvre your caravan or trailer tent, and often it's the lights that take the brunt of the damage.

Cover a broken light with your duct tape to keep it protected and waterproof until you get home.

10. Make a washing line

Finally, if you forget to pack your washing line, try twisting a length of duct tape to make a simple alternative!

We hope that these tips will give you a head start in planning your next camping trip. If you're looking for a peaceful adult only campsite then why not give The Rodney Stoke Caravan and Camping Park near Cheddar Gorge in Somerset a try.

Top 10 Camping Tips for Beginners

Mon, 08 Feb 2021 12:26:29 GMT

Follow these simple camping tips and enjoy a successful first camping trip

We'd like to share our top 10 camping tips with you so that you can enjoy your next camping trip in comfort and safety.

Whether you're new to camping or you're just thinking about taking a trip, we hope that these tips will help you on your way.

Top 10 camping tips for beginners

1. Choose your tent size wisely

Whilst a one-man pop-up tent might seem a cheap and convenient option for your first camping trip, generally they aren't particularly comfortable or weather proof.

They also tend to be a bit on the small side. A good general rule when choosing a tent is to think at least one size bigger than the number of people using it. So, if two people are sharing, buy a three-man tent - if three people are sharing, buy a four-man tent etc.

2. Practice putting up your tent

Your first real camping trip probably isn't the best time to find out that you don't know how to put up your tent. Have a trial run in your garden or nearby park. That way you won't waste precious time during your trip.

This will also give you the opportunity to check for any rips or bent tent poles. Which brings us onto our next tip . . .

3. Check your gear (then check it again)

Before you leave for your camping trip check that you have all of your gear, and that it's in good working order - count tent poles, tent pegs and ropes.

Make a list of everything that you need and check-off every item whilst you pack your bags or load the car.

At the end of your camping trip make sure that you clean and dry everything thoroughly so that it's ready for your next trip.

4. Think about lighting

If you're visiting from a town or city, you might be surprised just how dark the countryside can be!

Whilst most campsites provide lighting around the main facilities, we would suggest that you pack a good quality light for inside your tent, plus at least one reliable torch (and remember to pack spare batteries).

5. Buy a good ground mat

If you want a good nights sleep it would be a good idea to invest in a ground mat. Not only will a good ground mat act as a buffer between you and the ground, it will also serve as an insulating layer to keep you warm.

Ground mats range from simple foam mats to self-inflating air mattresses.

6. Pack sum duct tape

Duct tape can solve a multitude of issues that you might experience whilst camping. Carry out a speedy repair to a damaged tent or sleeping bag, seal packets of food to keep them fresh, or even fix a cracked water container - the possibilities are endless!

10 ways that duct tape can help you at the campsite.

7. Bring your own toilet paper

Even the most efficiently-ran campsite may occasionally run low on toilet paper. Make sure that you don't get caught short and remember to pack a spare roll or two!

8. Pack earplugs

Nature can be surprisingly noisy!

Whether it's the sound of sheep in the neighbouring field, an unexpected downpour in the middle of the night, or birds nesting in the nearby woods, if you're a light sleeper you should definitely pack some earplugs.

9. Arrive during daylight hours

Pitching camp in the dark is not ideal, even if you're an experienced camper, and your fellow campers probably won't appreciate the disruption. So make sure you plan your trip accordingly and arrive at a reasonable time.

Each campsite will have its own check-in times so make sure you check before you start your journey.

10. Don't pitch camp under any trees

Pitching camp in the shelter of a mighty tree might seem like a good idea, but you'll soon regret it when your brand new tent is covered in droplets of sap! Sticky tree sap turns packing up your tent into a complete nightmare, not to mention the hassle of trying to clean everything up when you get home.

It's also a good idea to camp on high-ground if possible. That way if it rains, you won't find yourself camping in a giant puddle.

Frequently asked questions about buying a static caravan holiday home

Mon, 24 Aug 2020 13:39:43 GMT

If you’re considering buying your own static caravan or holiday lodge it’s natural that you might have some questions

There’s a lot to consider, and with over 40 years of experience, we’ve probably been asked most things!

Here is our list of the 11 questions that we get asked most often;

1) How often can I use my static caravan during the year?

This depends on which of our holiday parks your static caravan or lodge is on. Our seasons range from 11 – 12 months.

Owners can use their holiday homes as often as they like whilst the park is open.

2) How much is the ground-rent?

Again, this depends on which of our parks your static caravan is on.

A number of factors are taken into consideration when calculating our ground-rent including; location, length of season and facilities.

3) Once I've paid my ground-rent are there any additional costs?

In addition to ground-rent owners are also responsible for gas and electric.

This will vary from park to park, but typically, gas and electric are billed on a meter (with the exception of Riverside Holiday Village where gas bottles can be purchased from reception). So you will only ever pay for what you use.

4) What Wi-Fi options are available on your holiday parks?

We have partnered with The WiFi Company , who offer various packages, with speeds comparable with BT Fibre.

Daily, weekly, monthly or annual options are available depending on your requirements.

Free Wi-Fi is also available in all of our clubhouses.

5) Do I need a TV licence?

Your static caravan or lodge is registered as a holiday home, not a residential property. If you have a TV Licence for your registered address you will not need another one for your holiday home.

6) Do you offer holiday caravan insurance?

We do not offer insurance.

Holiday home owners are welcome to use whichever insurance company they like. However we recommend Leisureda y s . In the event of a claim, Leisuredays have given us authority to carry out repair work on their behalf - which speeds the whole process up considerably!

7) Do you offer finance?

Unfortunately we are unable to offer finance.

We recommend Pegasus . But buyers can use whoever they like.

8) Will I be responsible for cutting the grass around my holiday home?

No. All ground work is carried out by our team of groundsmen. You're on holiday after all!

9) If your holiday park is 'over 50's', does that mean that my children and grandchildren can't visit?

No. You can have visitors of any age but they cannot stay on the park on a long-term basis.

Our ‘adult-only’ and ‘over 50’s’ parks are great for visitors who want to enjoy the peace and quiet of a more ‘grown-up’ atmosphere but, (to be completely honest) they’re probably a bit too quiet for some of our younger visitors anyway!

10) Can I let my holiday home?

No. Private letting is not permitted on any of our parks. Your holiday home is for the enjoyment of you and your family.

Holiday homes are available for hire (through Hoseasons) at Riverside Holiday Village near Weston-super-Mare.

11) How can I pay for my static caravan or lodge?

To secure your purchase we require a 10% deposit which can be paid by bank transfer, cash, or card.

The balance is required prior to you taking possession of your new holiday home.

We hope this answers some of your questions about buying a static caravan holiday home. We offer a fantastic range of new and pre-owned static caravans and lodges for sale at 5 fantastic holiday parks in beautiful Somerset.

Please don't hesitate to contact us if you would like to discuss your requirements in more detail.

What is a Seasonal Touring Caravan Pitch?

Fri, 06 Mar 2020 12:22:03 GMT

Make the most of your caravan with a Seasonal Touring Pitch in beautiful Somerset

If you're new to the world of caravanning you've probably heard other caravan owners talking about seasonal touring pitches . Some people love them, and others aren't so keen. But what is a seasonal touring caravan pitch? And is it something that you should consider? We'll do our best to answer those questions for you here!

Seasonal touring pitches offer a convenient and cost effective way for you to enjoy your caravan without the fuss (or stress) of having to hitch-up and tow, unpack and pack up again, or struggle to make a last minute booking.

Seasonal tourers pay a fixed rate to reserve a specific caravan pitch on a park for the entire season. You can 'set up' your caravan (and awning), leave it on 'your' pitch, and come and go as much as you like for the duration of the season.

Benefits of a Seasonal Touring Pitch

Convenience: Continuous towing, packing up, and wrestling with your awning will all be things of the past! Once you've arrived on your seasonal pitch that's all of the hard work done for the whole season!
Flexibility: Forget the hassle of making last minute bookings or paying inflated rates during the school holidays. When you become a seasonal tourer you can visit your caravan whenever you like. If we have an unexpected sunny spell just jump in your car and go!

Cost: Seasonal tourers pay a fixed rate - visit your caravan as often as you like, whenever you like - the rate won't change! Depending on how often you use your caravan, you could save up to 50% on nightly fees throughout the season. Pitch fees on our parks even include storage when the park is closed.

Community Spirit: Our holiday parks tend to attract like-minded people and many of our seasonal tourers return year after year, so there's always a familiar face to ask for a helping-hand or advise on the best places to visit.

So, what's not to love?!

We offer seasonal touring pitches at 6 of our Holiday Parks in beautiful Somerset, and with a choice of adult-only or family-friendly parks, we have options to suit everybody.

Parks with Seasonal Touring Pitches

Frequently asked questions about Seasonal Touring Pitches

Now that we've explained what a seasonal touring pitch is, here are some of the questions that we get asked most often:

How much is a Seasonal Touring Pitch?

The cost of a seasonal pitch will depend on a number of factors:

• Length of season

• Park facilities

• Park location

• Demand for pitches

Seasonal touring pitches are available at 6 of our holiday parks, so you can get a good idea of rates by browsing our touring parks . Most of our seasonal tourers pay in two instalments.

Once I've paid my fees are there any other costs?

Having paid your pitch fees you will also be responsible for gas and electric. Electric is billed on a meter and gas bottles are available for sale on all of our parks.

Will anyone else use my pitch when I'm not there?

No. Your pitch is reserved for you for the entire season. No-one else will use your pitch.

What happens to my caravan when the park is closed?

Our holiday parks are open from 9 - 12 months of the year. Pitch fees include storage, so when the park is closed your caravan can stay on its pitch. However you may be required to take the awning down.

Can I access my caravan when the park is closed?

No. Visitors are not permitted on-site when the park is closed.

Can I come on part-way through a season?

Yes. We will work out your site fees pro-rata.

Can I stay for more than one season?

Yes. Our seasonal tourers have first refusal on their seasonal pitch. In fact most of our seasonal tourers have been with us for a number of years.

5 Top Tips to Modernise your Static Caravan or Holiday Home

Tue, 02 Apr 2019 16:57:19 GMT

Simple steps to modernise your Caravan or Holiday Home

Most static caravans come pre-styled and furnished, which can save on initial costs, but may not always match your individual taste or style. However, there are lots of things that you can do to modernise your caravan or holiday home – and it’s easier than you might think!

Here are our top 5 tips;

1. Update your seating

You have two options when it comes to updating your soft seating; re-upholstering or replacing.

Any good upholsterer should be able to remove and re-cover your fixed-seating with relative ease, and there are literally thousands of fabrics available to choose from. So, whether you’re looking for a subtle two-tone or a pink flamingo print, you will find something to suit your style! However, you should keep in mind that re-upholstering may not always be the cheapest option, with upholstery fabrics starting at around £20.00 per meter (plus labour).

Or, if you’re feeling more adventurous, why not remove your fixed-seating completely and replace it with free-standing sofas or armchairs. Re-invent your living space with maximum flexibility for the future!

2. Upgrade tatty flooring

In older caravans, or those that have been well-used, the flooring is often the area that starts to age first.

Replacing tired carpets with fresh lino or laminate flooring will instantly transform your interior. Or why not introduce a splash of colour with a new rug!

3. Replace your curtains with blinds

Most older static caravans come with curtains. For a more contemporary feel, why not replace them with blinds?

Made-to-measure blinds are easy to find online and will transform the look of your holiday home.

4. Refurbish your kitchen or bathroom

If you don’t have the budget for a brand-new kitchen or bathroom suite, replacing or painting cabinet doors is a great way to give your kitchen or bathroom a facelift without breaking the bank.

You can also immediately transform any space for very little cost by replacing tired tiles or splashbacks.

5. Re-cover your exterior

Over the years the exterior of your static caravan may begin to show signs of wear and tear, but this can quickly be transformed by covering the unit with vinyl cladding.

Not only will this give your holiday home a modern new look, it will help with insulation and weather proofing (please note, you will probably need permission from the park owner before you go ahead with this).

So there you have it, 5 simple tips to help you modernise your static caravan or holiday home! We hope that you find these tips useful, if you have any questions please contact us , we would be happy to help.

We invite you to browse our static caravans for sale to find your next holiday home or read our Advice and Tips for buying a static caravan .

Buying a Static Caravan | Advice and Tips

Tue, 19 Mar 2019 00:00:00 GMT

Our Top Tips to help you buy the perfect Holiday Home

At West Country Park Homes we understand that buying a static caravan is far from a small decision, and with more choice available than ever before it’s easy to get overwhelmed.

We want all of our holiday home owners to enjoy their time with us for years to come so we’ve compiled this list of advice and tips to help you at the start of this exciting journey;

1. Consider your lifestyle and how often you will be using your holiday home

If you favour weekend breaks rather than longer, less regular getaways, a caravan park within a couple of hours travelling time from your home is probably the sensible option. However, if you plan to visit for several weeks at a time, a couple of times a year, you may be willing to travel further.

Remember to check the length of the parks season, our parks vary from 9 – 12 months of the year.

2. Think about how you enjoy spending your leisure time

If you have a young family you may prefer a park with enough facilities and events to keep everyone entertained. However, if you are hoping to enjoy a peaceful retirement, peace and quiet with like-minded people may be more important.

Consider the pitch location; would you prefer a quiet pitch away from the main facilities or are you the kind of person who would you rather be in the middle of things?

We strongly recommend that you visit any potential park before making a purchase. If you can spend a couple of nights there that’s even better!

3. Set a budget

Static caravans come in a wide range of specifications; from basic entry-level models to highly luxurious. It can be easy to get carried away when looking at lovely glossy photos of brand-new units, but in our experience the model that you choose will depend on your budget.

Remember that in addition to your initial purchase you will also be responsible for site-fees, gas, electricity, insurance and general maintenance costs.

4. New or pre-owned?

Many pre-owned units can be purchased in ‘like new’ condition for a fraction of the price of a new unit, however, in the event of any issues a brand-new unit usually comes with a manufactures warranty. You may also find that the heating system is more efficient in new units. If you decide to purchase a pre-owned unit remember to ask the current owner for any available paperwork.

At West Country Parks we don’t impose strict age limits on our static caravans, however most parks do. Older models may be removed from site, so always ask for clarification from any park that you are considering.

5. Choose the right model and layout

Static caravans come in an almost infinite variety of styles and layouts. It’s important to consider how you will use your new holiday home; How many beds will you need? Is it more important to have a spacious kitchen or will you spend more time in the living area? Do you need an en-suite, bath or just a shower? Does anyone in your family have accessibility needs?

These are all really important questions so don’t be afraid to spend a bit of time having a look around and investigating what is available.

6. Finally, ask for a copy of the park rules

Every park has its own set of rules and it’s important to familiarise yourselves with them before committing to a purchase; Is the park pet-friendly? Are there restrictions on car-parking? Are the park facilities free or will you have to pay extra? Are there restrictions for having sheds, storage boxes etc?

These may seem like small points, but they are all things that you will wish you had checked once you take ownership of your holiday home!

So, in summary, it is important to look at the bigger picture. Purchasing a holiday home is a big decision and we hope that you will enjoy the experience for years to come. Take your time and don’t be afraid to ask questions - but remember to be realistic about your expectations!

Walking to make our Parks ‘Heart Safe’

Starting at 8.00 am on Saturday 11th May 2019 at Fairways Holiday Park in Bawdrip, volunteers from all of our Parks will be walking a total of 24.7 miles as we visit each of our 9 Holiday and Residential Parks in order to raise funds to install life saving Defibrillators on as many of our Parks as possible.

According to the defibshop ‘over 30,000 people suffer an out of hospital cardiac arrest in the UK every year and without immediate treatment 90-95% of these victims will die’. Cardiac arrest is a condition which can affect us all, regardless of age, gender or health – but it’s not all doom and gloom, in the event of an attack, if CPR and defibrillation are provided within 3-5 minutes of collapse, a victim’s chances of survival can increase by a staggering 68%.

We would love for all of our tourers and holiday home owners to get involved, so if you would like to join us and take part please contact caroline@westcountryparks.co.uk

We massively appreciate your ongoing support and any donation will help us to achieve our goal.

Should I buy a Static Caravan?

Sun, 29 Jul 2018 23:00:00 GMT

Enjoy the benefits of owning a Static Caravan

Renting a static caravan can be a fantastic money saving option for families to enjoy a great value holiday in the UK. But rather than renting, have you ever thought about buying one of your own?

With the uncertainty of Brexit and the current economic climate it’s no surprise that more and more Brits are deciding to enjoy ‘staycations’ and explore the many attractions that the UK has to offer. If you find yourself returning to the same area or even the same holiday park year after year it may be worth investing in a holiday home of your own. Here are our top reasons why;

Convenience

We offer static caravans and holiday lodges for sale at 5 of our holiday parks with seasons ranging from 11-12 months. Our visitors are able to enjoy their holiday homes throughout the year without the stress or hassle of trying to book last minute accommodation. Static owners are free to come and go as they please so there’s no need to plan your trip weeks in advance – simply pack a bag and travel at your own convenience.

Comfort

Our holiday homes are available in an almost infinite variety of styles and layouts. All newer models come with central heating, double glazing and extra insulation so you can be as comfortable in your holiday home during the winter months as you are during spring and summer.

New units are equipped with everything that you might find in your own home including electrical and white goods - and there’s also the added bonus of having a toilet that is connected to the mains, so no more inconvenient visits to the Elsan Point!

Cost

We offer ‘ground rent’ on our parks from as little as £2,500 per season (July 2018) - that works out at just £48 per week, a fraction of the cost of many touring parks not to mention any hotel or B&B!

And the initial out-lay may not be as much as you think, many pre-owned statics can be purchased in ‘like new’ condition to suit those on a lower budget.

Space - The average static caravan is a ‘roomy’ 35x12ft, considerably larger than most touring caravans (and even some hotel rooms!) with lodges reaching a whopping 40x20ft, so there’s plenty of room for the whole family to enjoy without getting under each others feet.

Most statics come with a 2-bedroom layout (a real plus at bed time) and many units also feature a pull-out bed in the lounge area, that’s sleeping space for up to 6 people!

Most models can also be fitted with decking, so as well as all of that indoor space to enjoy, you can also secure your own piece of the outdoors.

Community

Our holiday parks tend to attract like-minded people - and staying in such close proximity to each other our static owners get to know each other. There’s always a familiar face to ask for a helping-hand should you need it.

So, if you’re looking for convenience and comfort without compromising on space then purchasing a static caravan or holiday lodge may well be a cost-effective solution for you and your family to enjoy your holidays together.

Static Caravans and Holiday Lodges for sale on our parks

At West Country Parks we offer a fantastic range of new and pre-owned holiday homes from the top manufacturers sited at 5 unique holiday parks, all located in beautiful Somerset. With ‘adult only’ and ‘family friendly’ options we are confident that you will find your ideal holiday park with us.

Travelling with Your Dog | Advice and Tips

Mon, 25 Jun 2018 23:00:00 GMT

7 Top Tips to make travelling with your dog that little bit easier

At West Country Parks we understand that dogs are an important part of the family and many of our visitors like to bring their furry friends along on their holidays - so all of our Holiday Parks are dog-friendly and we welcome conscientious pet owners .

We also know that travelling with the family can sometimes be stressful so here are our top tips to make travelling with your dog that little bit easier for you all!

1. Pack some food for your pet

To prevent sickness, it is advised that you feed your pet no sooner than two hours before you travel. If your journey is long enough to cover a period of time that your pet would normally be fed, remember to take their regular food with you. If your dog is prone to car-sickness we suggest that you talk to your vet prior to travelling.

2. Exercise your pet before you leave

The more energy you can burn-off before you set-off, the more likely it is that your dog will be happy to rest for at least some of the journey!

3. Make sure that your pet is comfortable and secure before setting off

If not secured properly he/she could cause an unintentional distraction, endangering themselves and you whilst you are driving. Travelling down the M5 at 70 miles per hour is probably not the ideal time for Fido to clamber onto your lap!

4. Take plenty of water with you for rest stops

Your dog should always have access to water during your travels.

5. Take regular breaks

Much like young children, your pet should be allowed time to stretch, drink and go to the toilet throughout your journey. Always exercise your dog on a lead and make sure that they can’t escape when you get them out of the vehicle. And always have your poop-bags ready!

6. Never leave your dog alone in your vehicle on a warm or hot day

The RSPCA advises that this can cause ‘distress and suffering and lead to the death of your pet’. A car can become extremely hot even when it doesn’t feel that warm outside. When it’s 22 degrees outside, it can reach an unbearable 47 degrees in your car in less than an hour - cracking the window open will not make the slightest bit of difference.

7. Make sure you can access your pets essential items

Pack the essentials for your pet and make sure that they are easy to access throughout your journey. We would recommend a water bowl, food, medications, poop-bags, a spare name-tag and collar with leash, towel, dog bed/blanket, favourite toy and of course - treats! Items that are familiar to your pet will help to keep them distracted, calm and relaxed.

If your pet is new to car journeys we would also suggest that you take a few short drives with them before your trip to see how they react.

We hope these tips make any upcoming holidays a little easier for both you and your pet! To find out more about our dog-friendly Holiday Parks please contact us .

With a number of plots already reserved and occupied, new lodges are currently available from £145,000 (with decking) and include three outstanding models from industry leaders Willerby;

The Clearwater features an open-plan layout with a new interior for 2018 that is contemporary with a classic twist – ensuring that your holiday home will not date in the years to come.

The Pinehurst captures modern practical living with the exceptionally well thought out design that you would expect from Willerby - including loads of integrated appliances and a generous sized utility room.

Finally, the best-selling Portland feels like a country house hotel, where the contemporary and traditional blend harmoniously together - you’ll love the distinctive features throughout.

The launch of Cherry Tree Lodge Park follows the recent redevelopment of the park’s swimming pool complex, clubhouse, shower-block, offices, arcade and outdoor adventure play area – all of which will be fully accessible to our new holiday lodge owners.

We have made a lot of progress over the last 10 years in expansion and development at West Country Parks and since taking over Riverside Holiday Village in 2015 we have seen a phenomenal rise in demand for luxury holiday accommodation. With an abundance of great events taking place in Weston-super-Mare and the surrounding area - including the annual Air Festival, Hazy Dayz Music Festival, RHL Beach Race and Somerset Carnival - it’s easy to see why!

West Country Parks, Supporting Local Charities

Established in 1972, our Head Office has been based at Edithmead near Burnham-on-Sea for over 40 years and supporting local businesses and charities has always been important to us. As West Country Parks has grown so have our fundraising efforts – with over £8,500 being raised last year alone.

This year we have selected two fantastic local charities to support; ‘ BARB Search and Rescue ’ and ‘ In Charley’s Memory ’.

BARB operate two life-saving rescue hover boats and an inshore rescue boat in the Bridgwater Bay Area and rely solely on donations to operate. Unlike other rescue groups, all of BARB’s members are volunteers, so every penny raised goes towards rescues, training and maintaining equipment.

Based in Burnham-on-Sea, ‘In Charley’s Memory’ was founded in memory of Charley Marks, who took his own life in September 2014. The charity works to support young people with mental health issues by raising the profile of mental health, making support services more accessible, advancing education surrounding mental health and providing support to the network of people around those with mental health conditions.

All donations received through our fundraising efforts this year will be shared between these two charities.

We would like to thank everyone who supported our efforts throughout 2017 and ask that you please give generously this year.

Preparing your Caravan for Spring

Fri, 16 Feb 2018 00:00:00 GMT

4 Tips to help you get your Caravan ready for Spring

It may not have felt like it in the morning frost, but Spring is on it’s way! And with Easter coming early this year you may already be planning your first caravan trip away this season.

Now is the ideal time to get your caravan serviced, but in the meantime here are some basic tips to help you on your way;

Check your tyres

Make sure that your tyres are inflated correctly and check for any cuts, wear or bulges. The thread depth should meet legal requirements and run across the full width of the tire.

Test your handbrake

Check that your handbrake works and is capable of holding the weight of your caravan, we don’t want you rolling away in the middle of the night!

Fill your gas tank

Ensure that your gas tank is full and that the rubber hoses aren’t split or damaged. Check all of your running lights and make sure that your leisure battery is holding the correct charge.

Check your fire extinguisher

Your fire extinguisher should be in date and properly pressurised. We hope that you’ll never need it but it is also worth investing in a fire blanket in the event of a cooking fat fire.

Give your caravan a spring clean

Now is also the ideal time to give your caravan a good spring-clean. Hopefully you have already read our Checklist for preparing your Caravan for Winter Storage so you won’t need to worry about any unwanted mould or frost damage - but it is worth taking the time to give your caravan a good clean (both inside and out). Not only will this give you the opportunity to spot any minor problems before they turn into something more serious, it will also help to maintain the resale value.

We offer immaculate hard-standing touring pitches across 6 holiday parks, all situated in the heart of Somerset. With a portfolio including family friendly, adult only and over 50’s parks, we really do have something for everyone.

Winter is Here! Our Checklist for preparing your Caravan for Winter Storage

Fri, 24 Nov 2017 00:00:00 GMT

5 tips to help you get your Caravan ready for Winter Storage

As any dedicated Game of Thrones fan will know, winter is finally here! Now, we’re not trying to suggest that your caravan is at risk from attack by White Walkers or Ice-breathing Dragons, but, if you fail to prepare your caravan properly now you could risk costly repairs come Spring .

So here are our top tips to help ensure that your winter passes with as few problems as possible;

1. Drain your water systems

It might sound obvious but you would be amazed at how many people forget! In order to prevent frost damage, make sure that you fully drain your water system. Open all taps and drain valves and remove any filters. Run the on-board pump and remove the shower head. Drain and clean your cassette toilet.

You should also drain any portable water containers thoroughly to prevent mould growth.

2. Charge your battery

If possible, remove your battery and take it home to charge. We also recommend that you try to power up your heating system periodically over the winter as this will help to keep your battery in good condition. This may seem like a bit of a pain, but when Spring comes and your caravan is in perfect working order it will all be worth it!

*Please be aware that if your caravan has a security alarm or tracking system it will need a source of power. Most systems run off of a separate power source but you should check your handbook to make sure.

3. Remove all gas cylinders

If you have access to an appropriate location we would recommend that you remove you gas cylinders over the winter. Alternatively, ensure that all gas cylinders are closed or disconnected and fit caps over any open pipework.

4. Air your interior

Unfortunately, unused caravans can develop a stagnant smell. To avoid unwanted smells, we suggest that you thoroughly clean your fridge/freezer and cupboards and leave the doors propped open so that the air can circulate. Plug all water inlets and waste outlets to stop unwanted visitors from crawling in. You should also remove all cushions, pillows and bedding and store elsewhere if possible.

5. Protect your exterior

You have two options when it comes to protecting the exterior of your caravan or motorhome, a breathable cover or an exterior protector fluid.

Protector fluids are generally the cheaper option and will wash off easily after the winter. Whichever brand you choose, we recommend that you follow the directions provided.

Covers are more expensive but if you choose a good one it will be a long-term investment. If you choose to invest in a cover please make sure that it is breathable and soft enough that it won’t damage your paintwork.

We would also suggest that you take the opportunity to thoroughly wash and dry your awning. It is essential that you ensure that the awning is completely dry, even small amounts of damp will result in mouldy patches.

So, there you have it, a little bit of work now and you can head into the spring months knowing that you’ve done all you can to prepare for whatever comes your way, unless of course it is an ice-breathing dragon!

Seasonal touring pitches at our holiday parks include winter storage, so if you’re looking for somewhere to pitch your caravan next season why not take a look at what we have to offer. With 9 parks all situated in the heart of Somerset we’re sure you’ll find exactly what you’re looking for.
