Cheddar Gorge on Your Doorstep, Hot Tub on Your Deck

Cheddar mixes adventure with proper relaxation. Known as the outdoor capital of Somerset, you get world-class caving, climbing, and walking right on your doorstep, plus cheese, cider, and scenery that does the rest.

You can spend your days exploring the ancient caves of the Gorge or cycling the Strawberry Line, then return to a resort-style lodge with every amenity at your fingertips. Waking up to panoramic views of the Mendip Hills before a morning dip in your hot tub is the ultimate way to recharge.

Cheddar Stays with Pool, Spa and Hot Tub

Whether you want pool and spa access on-site or a quieter lodge with countryside views, here is what we have near Cheddar.

Lodges near Cheddar Gorge with Pool & Spa

These modern lodges sit within a resort with heated indoor swimming pools, saunas, steam rooms, and climbing walls. You can spend the morning at the pool, the afternoon exploring the Gorge, and the evening in your hot tub without getting in the car. On rainy days, the on-site leisure facilities keep everyone busy.

Luxury Lodges with Countryside Views

For something quieter, these lodges sit in peaceful spots with panoramic views over the Mendip Hills. Expect woodburners, high-end interiors, and the kind of seclusion that makes you forget anyone else is around. A good pick for couples or a small group who want the countryside without roughing it.

Romantic Escapes for Two

Intimate lodges designed for two, with a private hot tub, cosy living space, and the Gorge a short walk away. A solid option for a mini-moon or a weekend away from everything. The local villages have tearooms and pubs if you want to get out, but most of the time you won't want to leave.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cheddar good for families?

Yes, it is excellent. Beyond the adventures of the Gorge and Caves, families love the "Go Active" facilities available at our resort lodges. Nearby attractions like Wookey Hole, the Mendip Snowsport Centre, and the beaches of Weston-super-Mare (just 20 minutes away) mean you will never run out of things to do.

What is there to do in Cheddar besides the Gorge?

Plenty! You can walk around the Cheddar Reservoir, cycle the Strawberry Line, or visit the Cheddar Gorge Cheese Company to see how the famous cheese is made. The village itself has lovely tea rooms, pubs, and shops to explore.

Do any properties have swimming pools?

Yes! A significant number of our lodges are situated within the Cheddar Woods Resort & Spa. Guests here enjoy access to a heated indoor swimming pool, a children's pool, and extensive spa facilities, adding a true resort feel to your self-catering break.

Are there dog-friendly lodges in Cheddar?

Our Cheddar lodges don't currently allow pets. If you're travelling with a dog, check our wider Somerset collection where several properties are dog-friendly. The Mendip Hills have brilliant walking routes if you're combining both.

Cheddar is well placed for day trips. Bath and Bristol's harbour are both about 40-50 minutes by car. The coast at Weston-super-Mare is even closer, just a 20-minute drive away.
