Clevedon Pier and Heritage Centre

Reviewed By KeithF718 - Weston super Mare, United Kingdom

We had been to Clevedon Pier about 5 years ago. Since then they have managed to get a lovely cafe/restaurant/toilets built into the beginning of the pier without spoiling the view of the pier.There is even a "port hole" window that looks under the pier. They also provide for wedding functions. It costs £3/£3.30 for entrance onto the pier and there is a small shop. When you climb the spiral staircase up to the 1st floor there is such a wealth of knowledge at your fingertips and in such a fun way that it transforms you into the history of the pier, the struggles and the joys, those early days of steamships and a timeline to pictorially show you what else was happening in the world at different times. The walk down the pier boards of this unique Grade 1 Listed pier has a pleasant calming atmosphere about it (on a calm day). The sun was shining, people were reading the name plaques all along the pier and the names on those plaques underfoot as well. As you near the end of the pier you are transformed into the 1800's and can imagine the hustle and bustle of passengers alighting from steamships to Wales and surrounding ports. Gentlemen wearing suits and ladies in their finery, some with maids in waiting. Back to today, workmen replacing the putty securing the ornate glass in the pagoda shelters to the sides, people sitting aloof on the cafe balcony taking coffee and ice cream. A couple studying the shape of the ship on the misty horizon trying to align it with the etchings of different types of ship on a sacque depicting about a dozen or so different vessels. An elderly mother and daughter relaxing on one of the bench seats leaning back and just breathing in the sea air and the peaceful quality of restful time. Quiet. Of course its not always this quiet but it was at this particular moment. Upstairs to the cafe we secured a corner table on the balcony overlooking the distant welsh shores lost in the mist of time. Unfortunately there were no fresh cakes or pastries, just pre-packed cakes, biscuits, chocolates and of course ice creams. The coffee was rich in flavour, the Bakewell tart melting as it touched the tongue. Time continued as we sat and relaxed in the warmth of the sun. A good sized cup of coffee, the large bakewell tart coming gnat £2.30 but worth it, the sweetness mixing with the taste of coffee. We descended the very strong iron staircase down to Pier level and took a leisurely stroll along the planks to the shop and exit.We spent 3 hours on the pier and heritage centre. All the staff were so nice and helpful. This is a heritage site that you just cannot rush. You must savour the richness and wealth of effort, blood sweat and tears that have gone into the restoration of this wonderful Pier. If you are in the area this is a wonderful place to visit. Over the past 10 years or so I have visited and photographed this amazing Pier.

Clevedon Marine Lake

Reviewed By ChrisR3880 - Yatton, United Kingdom

I know the Lake so well, but it still surprises me. From cold 2C water in winter to warm 20+C in summer, it is wonderful to swim in this free resource, only please donate to MARLENS, the charity responsible for the Lake upkeep. The water varies from clear to very silty after very high tides have overtopped and refreshed the water. If you are new to open water swimming, take care as it can be dangerous. The Lake is frequented by friendly swimmers who will help with advice. Please, NO dogs
