Can anyone tell me what the tv reception is like at Cheddar CAMC please ? It's been a few years since we visited and used the tv hook up at the bollard. Just wondered if it has improved with digital signal.

Shouldn't be a problem - its only 7 miles away so you don't need down-tilt.
I notice that many aerials in the Cheddar area have their aerials point just west of south - which suggests they are using Stockland Hill near Honiton. Farther away but could be a worker. We stay on a CL about 5 miles east of Devizes and although Mendip is 9 miles away behind a small hill it works perfectly., BUT we also get Stockland Hill (35 miles) as well on a useable signal.

The secret is to tune your TV manually and see what you get.
