Bell Inn at Buckland Dinham


   A country pub site in a small village with no shops.  On booking the site, Mike asked about entrance to the site as on Google Earth, he had seen two possible entrances.  The landlord said use the one at the right of the pub as the one down the lane was too tight a left turn to get into the site.
   On arriving it was a very tight entrance to the site with an inch or so to spare.  Consequently, Mike spent the weekend worrying about getting out (quietly in his mind)  with no electric or loo waste disposal.  Well drained site with lovely views and chickens and ducks roaming around however there is no loo waste disposal.
   The landlord is well laid back and the food and drink are good.  Festivals are held three times a year and they also do a 72oz steak and it's free if you can eat it.  Mike would give it a good go but I think that it would be beyond his appetite.
   Frome was well worth a visit with a few old buildings.  On the site, we saw this caravan and it reminded us of Carol & John's 'Burgervan' they had back in 2006.
   Exiting from the site with the caravan meant we had to turn right out of the narrow entrance. I stood on the opposite side of the road watching for oncoming traffic as it was just around a blind bend.  As Mike was driving out, he heard a loud scraping noise but it transpired that it was just the caravan steady leg graunching on the road as the car was level on the road and the caravan was still on the slope. He had visions of big gouges in the side of the caravan.
   All in all, a lovely site but not relaxing because of the entrance.  We'd love to go again but I don't think that Mike's heart would take it.
