Formed in May, 1984 it has evolved into one of the largest touring caravan dealerships in the U.K.
The original Weston-super-Mare site remains the largest within the Group offering in excess of 2 acres of caravan display together with all the facilities associated with a modern retail outlet. It is also the home of Mendip Caravan Repair Centre Limited and the Group Head Office.
The Company has grown from strength to strength and now boasts modern and comprehensive facilities in Newport, South Wales and Evesham in Worcestershire.
The original plan was to be one-stop touring caravan specialists, to offer the best choice, quality and value available. This remains our objective and we continue to invest in the touring industry and to keep pace with the demands and expectations of our customers.
Our success is entirely due to the enthusiasm of our staff and the support of our customers. We would like to thank all who have done business with us over the last 20 years and welcome those visiting us for the first time.
We are committed to the product we sell and to our industry.
We will continue to improve all areas of our service and ensure the “Mendip experience” is an enjoyable one.
