Often it’s the little things on a site that you remember, the details that bring everything together. This is what makes Bath Chew Valley stand out as a brilliant park.
There is a communal herb garden, a computer with free internet access and printing, tourist information brochures and a book library. These details give the site a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Everyone is happy to have a chat, the staff included, and Tiger, the resident cat, is as likely to make himself at home in a pool of sunshine in your van as by the heater in reception.
The site also has excellent facilities. Rather than a large washblock, owner Keith Betton has installed a row of private washrooms. Each one has a shower, toilet, basin and mirror.
And they are all heated for comfort in the cooler months. More are being built to increase the ratio to a washroom for every four pitches. Alongside the washrooms are a utility room with dishwashing sinks
and a launderette.
Bath Chew Valley’s list of accolades also includes our award for Best Adults-Only Site. Visitors loved the site's atmosphere, facilities and the attention to detail that made their stay that bit more comfortable.
