In Cider Festival

By train and bus: Weston-super-Mare’s station (on the Bristol–Taunton main line) is the closest rail link ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weston-super-Mare_railway_station#:~:text=Weston,line%20from%20%2C%20via)). Great Western Railway trains run frequent services from Bristol Temple Meads (about 30 minutes away), Bath and Cardiff. From the station or nearby interchange, First Bus #1 (the "Weston’s Coaster") runs up to Sand Bay Holiday Village via Kewstoke ([bustimes.org](https://bustimes.org/services/1-station-approach-sand-bay-sand-road#:~:text=1%20Weston,Road%20via%20Birnbeck%20Pier%2C%20Kewstoke)), roughly once an hour. Local taxis and ride-shares can also pick you up at the station and reach Beach Road in under 10 minutes.

By car: Sand Bay Holiday Village is easy to reach by road. From the M5, take junction 21 (St George’s) toward Weston-super-Mare on the A370 ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A370_road#:~:text=bypasses%20Long%20Ashton%20%2C%20then,M5%20motorway%20at%20Junction%2021)). Continue along the A371/A370 north through Worle and Kewstoke to Sand Bay and Beach Road. The resort offers free parking on-site for registered guests ([www.sandbayholidayvillage.co.uk](https://www.sandbayholidayvillage.co.uk/oli/#:~:text=Parking%20Free%20parking%20is%20available,on%20site%20for%20all%20guests)). Weston is on the Bristol Channel about 20 miles southwest of Bristol ([www.rome2rio.com](https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Weston-super-Mare-Station/Sand-Bay-Holiday-Village-Adults-Only-Weston-super-Mare#:~:text=Weston,Worlebury%20Hill%20and%20Bleadon%20Hill)), so allow around 30–40 minutes to drive from Bristol in normal traffic.

By air: The nearest airport is Bristol Airport (BRS), about 15 miles northeast of Weston-super-Mare ([www.rome2rio.com](https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Bristol-Airport-BRS/Weston-super-Mare#:~:text=How%20far%20is%20it%20from,Mare)). It’s roughly a 25–30 minute drive to Sand Bay via the M5 ([www.rome2rio.com](https://www.rome2rio.com/s/Bristol-Airport-BRS/Weston-super-Mare#:~:text=1,7)). Alternatively, take the frequent coach from Bristol Airport to Weston town centre, then a short taxi or bus onward. (Cardiff Airport is another option, but much farther away – about 45 miles west of Sand Bay.)

Accommodation: For those not in festival chalets, Weston and the surrounding area have many lodging options. The town offers hotels and B&Bs along the seafront, and villages like Kewstoke have guesthouses. Sand Bay Holiday Village itself is adult-only and features self-catering apartments with optional half-board meal plans (breakfast + dinner) ([www.sandbayholidayvillage.co.uk](https://www.sandbayholidayvillage.co.uk/oli/#:~:text=Club%2C%20and%20Holiday%20Apartments%2C%20all,without%20the%20hassle%20of%20cooking)). Festival weekends can be busy, so it’s wise to book well in advance if you prefer to stay on-site or nearby.
