Somerset Tourist Information

Somerset offers a wide range of diverse and interesting places to visit and with Sandy Glade Holiday Park centrally-located, you are well-placed to explore this exciting county.

Across the road from Sandy Glade Holiday Park is the Berrow Flats – a long stretch of impressive sandy beach overlooking Bridgwater Bay that extends from Brean Down in the north to Berrow in the south. Sandy Glade Holiday Park is also close to superb walks along spectacular cliff tops, while the nearby resorts of Burnham-on-Sea and Weston Super-Mare offer excitement and entertainment for all.

Further afield, why not visit the historic Roman City of Bath or the burial place of King Arthur and Guinevere at Glastonbury for a good day out? A combined visit to the world-famous Cheddar Caves and Gorge along with Wookey Hole is another exciting day’s activity. Or you can experience a touch of history at Cadbury Castle at South Cadbury, Cleeve Abbey at Watchet, Dunster Castle at Minehead and the inspiring Wells Cathedral. The impressive Longleat Manor House with its world-famous maze and safari park is just over the country border in Wiltshire to give the whole family a really special treat.

The rest of Somerset provides activities and interests to suit all tastes. For nature-lovers, there’s the colourful Brean Down Bird Garden or the Animal Farm Adventure Park at Burnham-on-Sea, the Alstone Wildlife Park at Highbridge, the RSPB West Sedgemoor Nature Reserve near Langport and the Ferne Animal Sanctuary near Chard to name but a few.

You can amble through quaint market towns like Castle Cary and Dunster – or experience the age of steam at the East Somerset Railway near Shepton Mallet, the Gartell Light Railway at Templecombe and the Blue Anchor Railway Museum at Blue Anchor.

Whatever your preferences or interests, you are never more than a short drive from any of these popular and exciting attractions in the county of Somerset.
