Date of Visit: July 2017 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Olly the vw van 3 reviews from this member

 Yet another lovely stay at Uphill site, this time though we put up our 'brand new' motent awning - in rather windy conditions, so not as successful as it's going to be next time!

In between the rain we managed several walks along the beach, including one all the way to Weston itself (and back!) and a bbq, despite the wind! Another successful visit to The Dolphin on the second night of our stay, where both our dog, Dylan, and our campervan, Olly, had already been noticed by the locals.

Will definitely be coming again when we visit family in Bristol.

 Lovely site although the road leading to it has a lot of cars parked along it and can be a bit tricky if the bus comes along.

Warden can be a bit sharp and is a stickler for vans being in correct position.

As said on some other reviews more water taps and we noticed there was no recycling this could be addressed.

Also grass was not cut for the 2 weeks we were there and hadn't been done previous to our arrival.

Having said all that toilets and showers were clean and the walks and views are great. Dolphin pub nice for meals just a short walk and local shop sells most things.

 Very nice site, small but had decent showers and a small toilet block and washing up area.

Used the site as a base to visit other places.

It is a working marina and the walk to village pub and shop is worth it. 


Date of Visit: April 2017 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Olly the vw van 3 reviews from this member

 This was Olly's first proper campsite and we were all very excited. We found the site easy and Dylan (our labradoodle) was delighted to discover the beach (dog friendly) within walking distance.

The site is just lovely. Very small, quiet and friendly - with a warm, busy pub (again within walking distance) - The Dolphin - and a cafe right outside if you're feeling lazy in the morning.

We will definitely be staying here again - in fact, we've already booked a night next month. Who knows, maybe we'll get the awning out and show Olly off in style!

 Uphill Boat Yard is, as one might guess, a working boat yard situated in Uphill village on a tidal creek off the River Axe. It also hosts a camp site situated around an artificial lake that hosts views of Brean Down.

There are toilets and washing-up facilities in a portakabin on the camping field, as well as toilets and showers in the main reception block (which can be a bit of a trek from the further recesses of the field). The site would benefit from a few more water taps, which can also be a bit of a trek to find.

It costs £23 per night to camp with ehu, and it is the views and the tranquil ambience that justify this charge. On a warm evening it is enchanting to see Brean Down up ahead bathed in sunset, with Uphill church behind you sat atop its tall, rocky outcrop.

Meanwhile, Weston-super-Mare is just five minutes drive away (or about three-quarters-of-an-hour's walk along the beach at the end of the road). There are also walks along the river that deliver one to Uphill beach. There are plenty of cycle routes too, most of the terrain being flat.

And if you don't fancy cooking breakfast or daytime meals there is a cafe on the site you can avail yourself off.

 Lovely little site. Quiet, very scenic, good for walking. Toilets and shower spotless. Will become a favourite. Pleasant walk along the beach to town 40mins. Shop and pubs in village.

Lovely walks around the nature reserve that surrounds the site. Lots of options for dog walking

 What a find! This little site was a complete surprise. Although the facilities are basic they were clean and comfortable. The secondary block was closed as it is out of season but the main block with showers and toilets was warm and clean.

Watching the tide come in on the river and watching the canoes on the lake was so peaceful. In fact peace is the order of the day here yet Weston-super-Mare is only a short distance away and there was a new walk for every day of the week.

The cafe was a pleasure and the nearby shop very handy. Didn't visit either of the pubs but they looked nice.

A short walk to the beach, across the downs or up the hills and the dog was worn out all week. Definitely a return on the cards.

Reviewer: Madwife1965 1 review from this member

 Excellent small site with beautiful views. Facilities basic but very clean.

Excellent for motorhomers as walking distance to Weston and public transport close by.

Also 2pubs and a cafe within 10 minute walk. Close to beach and the downs.

Reviewer: Travellinglouis2014 6 reviews from this member

 Very much enjoyed our stay at Uphill.

The site is well set out around the marina/lake, and is well maintained.

The walks around are excellent, up the hill to the local church gives a superb view of the Severn Estuary, and the nature reserve next door gives dogs a great chance to run around.

The walk along the beach to Weston is also to be recommended (and there is a regular bus service back that stops outside the site!).

We are not that fond of Weston Super Mare, but although this site only about a mile away it feels as if it is out in the country, but with the beach just down the road.

We did not use the café, but it is right next to the site, and the local shop has most things you might need.

The only downpoint is the second toilet block, which has no heating in it, and no showers, but the main ones next to reception were very well maintained and lovely and warm.

Will return at a later date.

 This is a peaceful little site set around the lake/ marina. The older facilities are quite dated and could do with updating but the others in the main building are fine, clean and warm. Great walks and a cafe right next door. Will be going back next year.
