A lovely level site for the caravan park. I liked the lakes, great for walking around and fishing. The caravan was lovely for us, we used it as a base. The Mash & Barrel restaurant was really well priced and kept lovely and clean by the staff, who were very friendly. There are a lot of things to do, on the site. So with good weather it is a perfect location, for holidays and short breaks. The bus stops just along the main road outside you can go to Taunton or Weston super mare direct for £3 each, each way. We will definitely visit here again!

The caravan we stayed in was dirty, the floor and table were sticky. There were clothes stuffed behind the sofa cushions, hairs clips. The club house and grounds them self were great. The staff were lovely

Superb clean spacious caravan for the 5 of us. Staff highly efficient and quick but not intrusive. Some food amd drink shortages in the restaurant but great workarounds. Well laid out flat park with lots of entertainment.

Lots to do on site for most ages and very close to burnham town and local shops/restrants/supermarkets beach, arcade wasnt the best ive ever seen but theres plenty local and the wifi/ phone signal in most of the caravans was awful only getting messages and calls when going out side and walking towards the entertainment complex. This made it difficult to order food to the caravan as we couldnt get signal or internet to order it. (Even though there bar codes to order to caravans and tables everywhere) However we massively enjoyed our stay and had a really lovely family holiday dispite the phone signal.
