Why stay here ...
This is a pleasant open level site based at Clevedon Golf Centre which is located on the southern outskirts of Clevedon, bordering the Bristol Channel (BS21 6UU).
The site has drinking water and a chemical disposal point. Other facilities include a WC which is available during golf course opening hours.
Adjacent to the CL is an 18 hole pay and play golf course which runs up to the Bristol Channel on its Northern boundary. The golf course takes approximately 2.5 hours to complete and is available at £9 per round, see Clevedon Golf Centre website for more information.
There are also fishing lakes nearby please ask for details.
There are a number of local public houses, The Drum and Monkey public house is good for food (approx 0.75 mile) and there is an Asda supermarket (0.5 mile away) and a Tesco Supermarket (1 mile away).
The seafront which is only a 15 minute walk away includes the only Grade I listed pier in the UK, ornamental gardens, a Victorian bandstand and other visitor attractions. The Salthouse Field has a light railway running round the perimeter and is used for donkey rides during the summer. The shore is a mixture of pebbled beaches and low rocky cliffs with the old harbour being at the western edge of the town at the mouth of the Land Yeo.
Good public houses at the seafront include ‘The Salthouse’ and for maximising the evening sun try ‘The Little Harp’.
You may choose to return to the CL via ‘Poets Walk’ on Wains Hill (which is topped by the remains of an Iron Age hill fort). If you time it right a spectacular sunset, which Clevedon is well known for, can be seen from Poets Walk on the way home.
Other landmarks include Walton Castle, Clevedon Court, Clevedon Clock Tower, Clevedon Craft Centre, Curzon Cinema and Hill Road which is just 200 yards from the famous Victorian pier and has a lovely array of shops and cafes.
Clevedon is easy to reach just off the M5 motorway and it is also a dormitory town for Bristol.

- Sports Centre with gym and swimming pool

A Little Gem.
A Little Gem.
I find it hard to recognize the poor report from Bryan 40 of our favourite CL which is a regular venue on our touring route. A haven of relaxation and peace, with much to offer, it sits beside former dairy pastures, now converted into a popular 18 hole golf course. With a 16amp electricity supply, it has all the facilities that a caravan or motorhome user needs, including hosepipe water access for internal water tanks.
The secluded paddock site gives fine views of golfers and sits beside a working farm, but seasonal farm activity is not obtrusive. We liked the space to erect our awning on the well-maintained grass, and to park our car in front of the caravan; late arrivals even have electric hook-up and water access in the car park. There’s hard standing for those who want it, too.
A short walk of 10 minutes gets you to an ASDA Supermarket, or Halfords outlet and in 20 minutes you can walk to Tesco, or a Post Office. By car, in town, are Sainsbury’s, Aldi and Lidl.
Sited on a quiet country lane to Kingston Seymour, there are a variety of walks, but many, like us, bring bicycles.
The town, on the door-step, is gorgeous and apart from its famous pier, has the oldest working cinema in the country. Outlying spots to visit abound and regular bus services to Bristol or Weston-super-Mare are a short walk away.
Welcoming and helpful Staff make this CL a little gem.

Excellent Park, friendly Owners, Great Value
I just wanted to leave a review for this great caravan park and counteract some of the incorrect information given in the review below.
We have been regular visitors to the site over the last 5 years, our most recent visit being for 5 weeks. We consider this to be a very good CL, with an excellent chemical emptying point and access to fresh water is never an issue. We have always taken our awning and never have we had any trouble parking between our awning and the next caravan - on any pitch.
We have never been bothered by the very low noise levels from the small industrial estate and the road mentioned in the review below is a rural road which goes nowhere! The traffic is Farm vehicles and residents only - again this has never been an issue.
The walk to the seafront is a gravel covered rough path but we are in our 70's and my wife walks down it in sandals. What the author of the review fails to note is that over the hedge is a tarmac path which runs parallel in the same direction, with only a short gravel path towards the end. It is then tarmac to Clevedon and the walk takes 15 minutes to the church. The pier mentioned is at the far end of the promenade.
I'd also like to add that it is a very beautiful location with lovely walks, there is an excellent swimming pool and gym only a few hundred yards away. The golf course is a very good one and is always busy. Mark Rodgers and all his staff are very, very helpful and welcoming. The general facilities in Clevedon are very good and my wife and I would highly recommend this CL to any caravan club member.
This site only costs £15 a night, which represents excellent value for money.

Looks to be an ideal CL but ....
Reading the description this looks to be an idyllic CL with a lot to offer. It is a large area but all the electric points are in one line along the far side and the three hardstandings lack the space to be able to erect an awning and park a car between the awning and the unit alongside. If you are unfortunate enough to get an inconsiderate neighbour who parks their car in the centre between the two units you are not likely to be able to sit outside your habitation door. There is a great deal of noise from the small industrial estate behind the CL both during the day and early in the morning. If you arrive in a motorhome make sure you have an aquaroll or other method to fill your tank. You have no access to the water tap unless you cross the pitch and putt green. The road alongside the CL appears to be a rat run with fast moving traffic early morning and late afternoon. The description states that it takes 15 minutes to walk to Clevedon and I defy anyone to make it in that time. Walking beside the river on a rough shingle path it took us more than 30 minutes at a fairly brisk pace and we did not reach the pier in that time. It is however a very pleasant walk. The X5 bus takes you to/from Clevedon and stops a short walk up the road. We received a nice welcome on arrival and were told to seek advice if we needed any help. I am afraid that we would not make a return visit to this CL.
Excellent Site in Convenient Location
Easy access from the M5 (J20) and short walk to Asda, Clevedon sea front with its famous grade 2 listed pier. Also, three pubs (Salthouse, Little Harp and Moon & Sixpence), all do food. Friendly site owner. Great as a base for exploring North Somerset or stopover close to Bristol on the motorway network. Broadchurch fans will enjoy spotting some of the film locations. Level field, 3 of the 5 pitches are hard standing. No facilities apart from water tap and chemical disposal point. I think there is a toilet in the club house, but didn’t use it because of Covid-19. Quiet at night. Golfers are up and about quite early in the summer months, but not intrusive. Recommended.
Good site for Motorhomes
Very easy to find, not far off the motorway. Excellent welcome from the owner. Flat and well kept site. Pleasant walk along the river to Clevedon which takes about 25 minutes. Would recommend.
