Perfect campfire campsite and so clean.

We had a lovely stay Petruth paddock. There are a few campsites in England I would recommend it so high for cleanliness. The staff are friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Beautiful scenery within easy reach of cheddar and Ebbor Gorge hikes and a pub!
Will definitely go again.

Absolutely awesome campsite

This is a great campsite with all the wonders to be expected from a Somerset site. They were very accommodating allowing us to order some forgotten items from Amazon. The laundry was very reasonable in terms of costs for washing and drying.
I would recommend ordering a pizza from FedbyFedandBen on a Friday, It was wonderful.
The site has great 4G access and the washrooms were always clean and presentable.

Great campsite large pitches,lots to occupy children, clean facilities and lots of them! Great to be able to get food/use bar onsite. We did keep forgetting about having to top up our electric but easily done at reception. We are already planning our next visit! As a family with a young baby the only suggestion we have is it would be super handy to have baby change or even just a changing mat in some of the showers so theres somewhere to sort baby out after a wash without carrying them across to one of the baby change toilets.

Large well run campsite

Large well run campsite - with fried sky service, good family area and adult area. Nice and quiet at night
Central Cleaning facilities, washing machines and braziers with logs available to hire at your pitch.

Great facilities

Great facilities, although I was a solo traveller I could easily see that having the venue would be perfect for a family adventure. Location wise it was so convenient for the main attractions of cheddar.

A really nice touch was getting a visit form the owner on the first night providing me with some local advice

Fire pit campsite.

Really great campsite close to everything in Chedder.

Great location

Great location, very friendly staff and good facilities. We used it as a base to go walking and cycling in the local area which was perfect. The only negative was the showers were not heated but they were clean and plenty of hot water. We enjoyed are stay

A fabulously warm welcome on a cold February evening!

A fabulous warm welcome on a cold, rainy day. Clean, well serviced facilities including toilets, showers, shop, even during low season. Beautifully located. The team at Petruth paddocks are helpful, supportive, friendly and approachable, and this was warmly received on our first trip out in our camper, Bluey!

Always a warm welcome

Always a warm welcome, very accomodating. I have visited several times since when it was just two fields and a single toilet, to its now more updated facilities. Location is great Jules and the team are always welcoming.
