Location
Coast and countryside all round

Weston super Mare and the Mendip Hills are close to Locking Parklands.

Just a few miles from Locking Parklands is Weston super Mare, one of Britain's favourite holiday resorts, which is keeping pace with modern demands thanks to generous regeneration funding. Weston super Mare's vast beach of fine sand is one of the biggest in the country, stretching as far as the eye can see in a graceful curve, and there are new attractions such as Dolphin Square complex with a cinema, health club, bowling alley, hotel, shops, cafés and restaurants.

Just a short distance out of town brings a change of scenery as you reach the Mendip Hills, whose landscape includes dramatic gorges, caves, views over the Bristol Channel, Iron Age hill forts and havens for wildlife. Whether you want to fly a kite, ride a horse, climb rocks or just enjoy a wonderful walk with the family, this is where you can do it.
