Cameley is a small hamlet near Temple Cloud. It's such a pretty spot, reflected by the name given to it by the Anglo-Saxons, which means "curved river meadows". This entire area has been owned by Glastonbury Abbey and the Knights Templar and is now a quiet place close to fantastic attractions yet peacefully removed from busy city life. Don't miss a visit to St James Church just by the turn-off to Cameley Lodge. The church dates back to the 1200s. It didn't suffer the enthusiastic restoration of so many ancient churches, so it looks very similar to how it did centuries ago with 15th-century pews.

When staying at Cameley Lodge you can enjoy it's excellent amenities. However, you are spoiled for choice if planning day trips. Bath, Bristol and Wells are only ten miles away, with a huge choice of places to eat, drink and shops, fantastic nightlife, and famous attractions like the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the Royal Crescent. National Trust properties such as Tyntesfield, Stourhead and DyrhamPark are all within forty minutes drive. Glastonbury and Wells are only a short drive from the house, and Stonehenge is around an hour's drive. The Mendip Hills, Chew Valley and Blagdon Lakes and with further afield Exmoor all have endless opportunities for walking and exploring Somerset. Weston super Mare and Burnham are great for a day at the seaside. Fishing/sailing/bird watching is popular at Chew Valley Lake as is horse racing (flat) during the summer at Bath Racecourse.

Cameley Lodge has the warmth and welcome of a private home with the convenience and efficiency of a country hotel.
