Cheddar Tips

"Forget the caves, the best bit is driving up through the gorge itself. Horrible tourist trap though." Maria, Chard, Somerset.

"Cheddar - the very name evokes vast round creamy blocks of the world famous cheese first produced here more than 800 years ago. Its other distinguishing feature is the well known Gorge - Britains largest. This is an area of huge archeological interest as here was found the UK's oldest complete skeleton. Cheddar is an area of outstanding natural beauty and a perfect base to explore this super area of South West England." - Albert
