Accessibility

We believe that the outdoors should be for everyone. Everyone should have the ability to access camping holidays and outdoor adventure experiences. Our site is off grid in the Mendip Hills and so it will always have inherent limitations but we are working hard to ensure we are as accessible as possible.

The Mendip team cares about inclusivity and diversity. If you have any questions about accessibility or inclusivity, we would encourage you to contact us before your stay- or before you book - at hello@mendip.co.uk to ensure we can support you the best way.

Accessible Bunk Room

Our Lodge Room features a fully kitted out accessible bedroom and an ensuite bathroom. This is Room 11 and can be accessed without using stairs.

Family Accessible Washroom

New for 2023, our refurbished toilet and shower block includes family accessible washrooms.

Flexible Camping

Our flexible approach to camping enhances our accessibility: park by your car, camp where you like and check out when it suits you.

Dietary Requirements and Allergies

Our professional catering provision across the site allows us to cater to a wide range of requirements. Please chat to our team to let them know your needs.

Activity Centre Accessibility

Our experienced instructors are experts at adapting activities to suit participant needs. Sessions can be booked privately for the ultimate adaptability. More info at mendip.co.uk/accessibility.

Lift

Our main activity centre building has a lift allowing those with mobility needs or buggies to access our ski slope and cafe.

Limitations

Off Grid

The campsite is set in a field and whilst there is a basic track for vehicles, we do not have any asphalt pavements.The campsite is surrounded by ancient woodland with uneven wood chipped paths. Please note, some of the ground in the woodland and in the campsite can be very uneven

No electric hookups

We do not offer electric hook ups. However, if you have medical needs that require you to leave something in a fridge or freezer overnight, or temporarily connect to the electric during the day time, our team in the Pavilion will be happy to support you.

Woodland paths & visibility

In order to support our licence and the dark sky initiative, we try to keep lighting to a minimum after dark. We do light some of the woodland paths in the evenings and ensure toilets and showers have subtle lighting; however, we recommend bringing your own torches.

Home

Basecamp is a family-run campsite in the heart of the beautiful Mendip Hills, just outside Bristol, five minutes from the M5. Surrounded by ancient woodland, our spacious campsite is perfect for families, small groups and adventurers.
