Forty Years

We first visited Cadeside more than forty years ago. The storage area was pitches then and our son watched the trains go by in the near distance. We still love this site, the current wardens are so helpful and patient (even when newbies reverse and flatten the markers). You can visit Exeter, Taunton, Somerset Levels, West Somerset Railway, Fleet Air Arm Museum, local cider farm etc. Wellington is walkable and has takeaways, banks, shops and Waitrose. A new Lidl is due to open before Easter just opposite the site entrance. This is a gem of a site, wish they had seasonal pitches - perfect site for us.

We had a great 5 night break here

We stayed here for 5 nights over the February half term as a family of 3. There were significant road works occurring outside the site upon our arrival and for the first 2 days. The wardens were extremely helpful with this and negotiated our arrival through the road closure on day one to make it all go very smoothly. There was a lot of noise on the first day of our trip through to midnight but it did not impact too much on the stay. We have to say a HUGE thank you to Derek for helping us out with a leaking tap. He popped over with the tools and ended up fixing the issue for us there and then. Really helpful and friendly top notch service (well beyond service). THANK YOU! We did have a full 5 days with visits to Taunton, Wellington Monument, Crealy (Exeter), Sheppy's Cider and a nearby wicker farm. Lots to occupy us for 5 days and the site itself was practically empty throughout so we had a very peaceful time in the main. I know this is used mainly as a transit site for people travelling South but it is well worth a few days at least to visit the local area. Once again a huge thank you to the wardens for looking after us and making our stay enjoyable and relatively stress free :)

A pleasant 4 days

A pretty little site that’s good for visiting Wellington which is a nice town and also Taunton by bus which had a good tourist office and an excellent free museum. There are good rural and semi-rural walks from the site as well as cycling opportunities. The only downside is there is a bit of urban noise but it’s quite at night. The local roads are busy and there is a bit of traffic on the lane that runs past the site. For this reason, its best to avoid pitches 1, 2 & 3. There were major building works opposite the site which added to the noise during our visit where a new Lidl is being built. Wellington has a Waitrose and Asda within walking distance so is well served with supermarkets.

Great stopover site

Stopped here for a few days in order to visit the famous Somerset carnival. It is an ideal location for anyone travelling to the South West as it is a few miles off the M5 and very easy to find. A small site with no toilet block or waste disposal point for motorhomes, but for a few days this is not a problem. There is a railway nearby but the noise from it was not bad Wellington is a short walk away with several cafes and the site is near to the Blackdown hills , great for walking.

A charming Little Site

We wanted to visit parts of Somerset away from Exmoor. This site proved to be ideal. We stayed 3 nights. The lack of a toilet block, and the on-site storage compound did not interfere with our enjoyment at all. We did not find it noisy. With only 16 pitches it felt like a well organised CL. Well done Caravan and Motorhome club. There was plenty to see around the Blackdown Hills, good walks, enjoyable pubs. I loved the dog walk in which I saw a variety of moths and Butterflies including a beautiful and spectacular Tiger Moth. Dog seemed to quite like it as well as it was quite a long walk ( for a caravan club dog walk).

Pleasant Little Site

We used Cadeside for a few nights as a stopover on our way further south. Probably the smallest Club site which isn't a CL!!! There are 16 hardstanding pitches, well spaced out. Friendly reception from the site staff. No toilet block which is fine by us. One service point handy to all pitches but no motorhome waste point. (if you had a long enough waste hose you could probably dispose of waste water at the service point?) The site is attached to a large storage compound. Its about a mile uphill walk into the pleasant town of Wellington, or if prefer you can jump on the regular bus service. In the other direction it takes you to Taunton. There is both a Waitrose and and ASDA in the town. I don't quite share the Clubs confidence in suggesting that both carparks are suitable for motorhomes as it could be a struggle with larger vehicles. In future that final point could become somewhat academic as they appear to be building a Lidl supermarket just across from the campsite which will be very convenient.

Absolutely superb and friendly Wardens

This is a good site for one night stop off down to the West Country. The site is a bit noisy but to offset this, there are some good dog walking areas both straight out of the site (dog walk) or just a 100 yards down the road into fields. But the Wardens are so helpful; friendly and smile all the time. A courteous wave or hello is the norm. They are relaxed and helpful. Thanks

Fab!

We absolutely loved this little campsite; landscaped beautifully and perfect for our overnight stop, not far from the motorway. Wellington is a lovely little town with lots of nice eateries and places for a drink. We didn’t mind not having toilet and shower facilities just for the one night, but for us to stay any longer here, we would prefer the addition of a small toilet/shower block. Wardens were lovely, really friendly. Would definitely use again as a night halt.

Ideal stopover

We have recently stayed at this site for one night to break up the monotony of traveling on the M5 from our holiday in Cornwall - this is a lovely small site - very pretty and peaceful (even though a road runs alongside). The walk in to Wellington is flat and not a long distance, however, you will need to be nippy in places as the route includes footpaths that come to an end due to a cycle path route. At those points, you need to cross the road to get on a footpath again. A couple of times, the crossovers were at blind(ish) bends - so be quick! Wellington has a Waitrose or Asda you can walk to and lovely little shops - including several charity shops to have a browse in. If you want to break up a return up north but still do some venturing out, this is a good site to stop off at. The site has a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. We can recommend. Enjoy!

Friendly well kept site

We previously stored ur caravan here and booked a nights stop on our way home from Suffolk. The pitches are nicely spaced out and the location is great for the M5. I was greeted by very friendly wardens, new since I last went there, and felt welcome. There are no toilet or shower facilities but for £17.50 it offered great value. We literally stayed a night, there was noise from the road but I think you have to appreciate that is the case when you are near a road. I slept very well and would certainly stay again for a few nights away from home. We walked down to the McDonalds/Costa Coffee that is a mile walk. You can walk in to Wellington which has loads of shops but we didn't get to do that with our one night. Chelston Motorhomes is also a short walk if you are looking at motorhomes or buying. This is a lovely friendly site and gets full marks overall.
