 CHEDDAR DAY TOUR

INCLUDES

 ENGLAND'S LARGEST GORGE

AUTHENTIC CHEDDAR CHEESE,

GOUGH CAVE &

PREHISTORIC STONES!

CHEDDAR DAY TOUR OVERVIEW

I will collect you from your accommodation in Bath at 8:30am and drive you to Cheddar Gorge, approx. 50 minutes away.

​

The gorge is England's largest gorge and is my favourite scenery in the area. We walk up a trail to the top of the gorge to give you great panoramic views of the area.

​

The village of Cheddar lies at the bottom of the gorge. As the name suggests it is the birth-place of the famous cheese. We will visit the only cheese factory in Cheddar which is still making Cheddar cheese using traditional methods. We will join their special small group tour to gain a great insight into how the cheese is made and of course sample some!

​

After lunch at one of the cafes at the bottom of the gorge you will have an unaccompanied visit to Gough Cave, a popular family attraction, where some of the cheddar cheese is matured and where the Cheddar Man was discovered many years ago!

​

After exploring the cave we will drive through the Cheddar Gorge back to Bath. We will make a detour for a short stop at the Stanton Drew Stone Circles. These little known stone circles stand in a farmers field and are believed to have been constructed at a similar time as the famous circle at Stonehenge.

​

We will return to Bath between 5:30pm and 6pm.

​​​

​

The price includes a private guide, transfers and your cheese factory experience (which will be a small group tour so there may be other people with us on this tour).​ Your entrance into Gough Cave is not included and will be payable on the day. The tickets cost £24.95 per person. Lunch and refreshments are not included in the price.

ADDITIONAL INFO

The walk to the viewpoint on the Cheddar gorge takes approx. 30 minutes (one-way) and includes a steep 20 minute ascent on uneven ground. The trail can be slippery and muddy when there has been rain. This walk is not recommended for people with mobility difficulties. We will be walking in a field at Stanton Drew so please wear suitable clothing and shoes for the tour.​. Once I have received your booking I will purchase your tickets for the cheese factory experience - these tickets are non-refundable and thus this part of the tour price cannot be refunded should you need to cancel the tour.​
