The village of Banwell is situated close to junction J21 on the M5 motorway and is within easy reach of Bristol, with the International Airport only 20 minutes drive away, just off the A38. The coastal resort of Weston super mare is 5 miles away along the A371/A370 and the attractions of Cheddar Gorge and Wells Cathedral are to the east below the southern slopes of the Mendip Hills.

Banwell was once on the coach road from the coast to Wells, and at one time had seven pubs & 26 shops. Only three pubs now survive, The Bell - formerly a coaching inn, The Brewers Arms, and the Whistling Duck which is now an Italian Restaurant and Lounge Bar. The number of shops have also been reduced considerably but there is still a thriving community in Banwell supporting these pubs, and three other restaurants; Chillies Indian Restaurant - formerly a French restaurant, The Anvil, which reopened as an Italian Restaurant for a short time before closing; Delicious - a Chinese Takeaway & Fish & Chip Shop; and The Gatehouse Restaurant in Banwell Castle
