Practical Caravan Top 100 Parks awards 2007.

This is an ideal site for adults wanting a peaceful, pretty base from which to explore the delights of Somerset. The adults-only policy means families will have to look elsewhere, but that will suit many.
The site’s owners, Tony and Anne Taylor, greet you like an old friend and it’s soon obvious how much pride and effort they put into this touring park. The facilities are kept beautifully clean, and the garden-like surroundings are immaculate.
Dog owners are welcome, and there’s even a field for dogs to run around in. The woodland river walk gives a fine taste of the scenery and will whet your appetite for a more challenging hike on nearby Exmoor. Once you’ve had your fill of walking and taking in the views, you can relax at the country pub just up the road.
Should you feel like learning a new skill during your stay, the site runs watercolour painting courses. If fishing is more your thing, that’s available on-site too.
If you plan on introducing friends to touring this season, Waterrow Park can help. It hires out touring vans for use on site
– an ideal way of introducing novices to the pleasures of caravanning before they move onto such things as towing.
It’s worth noting that this site is open all year. Regular visitors will find it fascinating to watch the landscape change through the changing seasons at this little gem of a touring park.

Practical Motorhome independent site reviews Nov 2006

Owned and managed by Tony and Anne Taylor, who greet you like an old friend, it is easy to see why their customers return year on year. From the moment you enter this beautifully kept, adults-only site, you are constantly delighted by what is set before you. It really is a surprise to find that Tony and Anne have only been operating this gem for the past six years.
The stunning Somerset scenery around the site is glorious and can be viewed from just about every one of the 48 pitches. Being open all year allows visitors the chance to watch the changing seasons, and devotees of winter touring will be pleased to find that all the park’s facilities also remain open all year.
The site runs popular ‘Learn how to…’ breaks between May and October, giving visitors the chance to sample courses in such diverse areas as fly fishing and beginners’ Spanish. Just think how impressed colleagues would be if you returned from a break in Somerset speaking a new language!
A purpose-built disabled unit deserves special mention. The superb shower and toilet facilities, accessed with your RADAR key, are exceptionally well-thought-out and maintained, as are the rest of the park’s facilities.
Taunton and the surrounding area lie a short drive away, and a half-hour’s drive gives you access to the Exmoor National Park at Dulverton. Dunster Castle and Hestercombe Gardens are also pleasant diversions, each worthy of a day trip.
