Reflecting on this accolade David Eddins, Managing Director of Mendip Activity Centre, said: “Receiving this award was overwhelming. We won Silver last year and so to go one higher and win Gold this year is incredible- we keep thinking it must be some kind of mistake! Helping others make time to enjoy the outdoors and experience adventure is our primary goal and so we can’t thank our guests enough for their continual support.”
