 Typical CAMC site, spotlessly clean but soul less. Views were only of white vans and hedges and the staff were quite officious with hardly a smile to be had.
The bottom of the site is close to the main coast road and traffic noisy, but its where the sun is. I camped at the top, no sun but quieter. Also the grass at the top was plastic astro turf decorated with flower tubs.
This site served its purpose of charging the van after a few nights off grid.
There's some good walks up in the hills and over to Dunster and it's a 15 minute walk to seafront.

This would be our 5/6th visit here and enjoy it every time.
Unusual in that COVID ruled. We received a ‘phone call from lovely warden prior to leaving and arranged an arrival time and booked a particular pitch. Don’t think this will happen again.
Nice welcome on arrival, told what was what. Even had a small bag of Haribos in the welcome pack. Good news was the lavatories were available but not the showers.
This is a CAMC site and is exactly what you would expect, clean, tidy and organised.
I believe all pitches have EHU. I think the main roadways are dead ends so you may have to walk the site first to find a pitch.
There is a dog walk, washing up point, laundry room and so forth. Not sure how much is available during pandemic.
Site is on a main road but we didn’t hear any traffic noise.
Turn right from the gate and a few minutes walk gets you to a small shopping area with pretty much all you might need including an undertakers.
Visited the chippy. Wife had fish which she pronounced excellent. I had pie and chips again excellent with shed loads of chips.
Walking into Minehead is pleasant. Takes about 15/20 minutes with nice houses and gardens to see.
Minehead is a typical seaside town. Pretty busy with no empty shops. Plethora of eating places. A steam railway but not sure when it operates. Nice walk along the prom, prom, prom but no brass bands playing tiddly-om-Pom-Pom,
Turn left from the gate, after about 10 minutes find a track with a few houses at the bottom. Go up the track, bear right at a map board then on to the Macmillan Way. Turn left then down into Dunster. A nice little town with the N. T. Castle. Or carry to the sea and walk back into Minehead.
Porlock is worth a visit as is Lynton and Lynmouth. Go up by the cliff railway and walk down by the zig-zag path.
We like it here and it’s close so we can fit in a 4/5 day stay. You can even hear the sea lions at night.

A group of 3 adults and 2 children. This was our first time on this site and it proved to be a good choice. Although direct access is off the A39, it is a very peaceful site.
We received a warm welcome on arrival, made even better by the loan of a lump hammer when the ground proved unusually resistant to our heavy duty awning pegs. The facilities on site are well up to the standard we have come to expect from CMC sites
We had trips out to Dulverton (been there, done that, no urge to go back), Dunster, Watchet and Lynmouth.
We were disappointed to find that in school holidays in a tourist area it is quite difficult to find "lunchtime" food service (apart from fast food chains) after 2pm. However, we can highly recommend the castle Coffee House in Dunster where the welcome is very warm and food is freshly cooked to order
The only fault we could find with the site is the lack of a children's play area. That won't prevent us returning

Weekend winter stay, nice dry weather meant a a few other visitors about, more than expected. Convenient location, about 15 mins walk to Minehead seafront and walks from the site to the edge of Exmoor forest and hills.
Usual CAMC standards on site, tidy, clean and ordered. Wardens very friendly and helpful. Level, compact site. Co-op 5 mins walk away.
Lovely stay, would return but probably out of season, guess it gets quite busy in summer.

Clean, nice and in a nice location. Staff friendly and somewhat helpful. Excellent for visiting for local history and nice places to go walking - very glad we came. A bit too far from home so will not able to return.

I loved Minehead, its the first time we'd been but we will be back. First the site, a tiered site on three levels with plenty of shade. And with most CMC the facilities were excellent, nice friendly welcome.
Secondly the town, 10-15 mins from the site and you're in town, lovely shops and plenty of good pubs. Had a day on the West Somerset Steam Railway and very enjoyable it was getting off at Bishop Lydeard and Watchet.

To Find Site:- We approached the site using the A39 from Bridgewater as signs on the M5 instruct you to use junction 23 for Minehead. In future I would stay on the M5 and leave at junction 26 heading back towards Taunton and out to Minehead on the A358.
The location of the Minehead Caravan Club members only site was originally a quarry. This obviously impacts on the layout and feel of the site. The 50 pitches all of which are on hardstandings are set out in terraces some levelling might be required. Even when the sun is out some of the pitches will be in shade, particularly going into autumn, due to a high bank topped with trees on the southern edge of the site. This also makes getting satellite reception difficult from some pitches. Electric points are convenient to pitches and are rated at 16 amps and use CEE17 blue connectors. There are a couple of service points for water and waste amongst the pitches but for some it will be quite a walk to fill up and empty waste. Likewise the chemical emptying point which is at the lower part of the site behind reception and depending on how you approach will involve a steep access if the shortest route is taken. The motorhome service point is next to reception and has an open grill for the disposal of grey water. The toilet block is of a good standard and has a covered washing up area but only two sinks. At the back of reception is an information room. There is site wide WiFi and time can be purchased online. It would hardly be described as fast but it was generally reliable.
The main attraction to this site will be the closeness to Minehead which is about a twenty minute walk away and reception will provide instructions. The 28 bus, a short walk from the site, runs from Minehead to Taunton with a half hour frequency Monday to Saturday. It is an alternative for getting into town from near the campsite. For those without their own off site transport the bus will also take you to Dunster which makes an interesting excursion from the site. For steam enthusiasts the West Somerset Railway runs regular steam trains from the station down on the seafront in the town. For shopping there is a parade of shops about a five minute walk from the site entrance with a fish and chip shop, Chinese takeaway and a Co-Op convenience store. If you want a more substantial shop there is a Morrisons and a Tesco in the town.

Great site made even better by the helpful and cheerful site wardens. Easy walk into Minehead (about 15 mins max) and all the quality showers and facilities you expect from Caravan club. Lots of busses available to various locations, nearby Dunster being a real gem.

Access to this site is easy with a wide sweeping entrance directly off the A39.
The wardens are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. All pitches are hard standing set out in separate areas. The site is in an old quarry and slopes considerably which would make staying for the less mobile among us a little difficult.
Most pitches are sloping so expect to do some levelling.
A Co-op is within walking distance along with numerous takeaways. Larger supermarkets are Morrisons and Tesco just a short drive away.
Mobile signal on Orange and Tesco good as was the digital TV reception.
Marvellous wooded dog walk on site too.

This is our first stay on a Caravan Club site and we were a bit anxious about the rules with regard to the placement of our van on the pitch following adverse criticism is in both magazines and from fellow motorhome owners. However we had no problem at all. We were told to go in either front or back first so long as we did not go across ways and stayed within our area we could pitch to suit us.
Location is within easy walk to Minehead or if you like to travel out more then there are plenty of nice places to visit. A van arrives each morning selling newspapers and a few essentials or it's just a five minute walk to a parade of shops which include a supermarket and fish'n chip shop.
The wardens keep the site lovely. All the facilities are spotless and it's nice to have plenty of hot water without keep pressing a button. Nice dog walk area.
A very nice site and well worth a visit
