Clevedon - Poet's Walk & Parks

Please Note:

Clevedon is a lovely seaside town with plenty to offer for all ages. It has a pebbled shoreline overlooked by wonderful Victorian architecture. The grade 1 listed pier dates from 1869 and is frequently visited by the Waverly paddle steamer and the Balmoral pleasure cruiser in the summer months when visitors can enjoy a cruise down the Somerset and Devon coast and to Wales. There are beautiful coastal walks in the area which have been the inspiration for many great writers including Tennyson, Thackeray and Coleridge.

The Salthouse fields on the seafront offer children's entertainment and refreshments for all. Take your swimming costume if you fancy a dip in the outdoor salt pool at Salthouse Fields.

There are toilets at the start of the Trail and towards the end. There is a playground, toilets and a cafe here which are near the end. There are refreshments right at the end as well as about half way round.

There are three small flights of steps so unfortunately it is not suitable for wheelchairs although would be manageable with a light buggy.

You will start and finish near to the pier where there is plenty of roadside parking.
