Date of Visit: July 2014 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Dave and Helen 7 reviews from this member

 By far the best holiday we have had yet! we didn't want to come home. The site and the area surpassed all expectation even though we had googled the area and seen what it looked like.

Anyone who over looks this site is a fool to themselves and missing a great site and great place to go. We can't wait to go back.

Blue Anchor is only 5 minutes away from watchet and minehead both great paces to visit but neither can hold a torch to Blue Anchor. A beautiful, clean, easy access beach with minimal fuss and no commercialism.

A great fish and chip van parks up most evenings on the front and a wide selection of local tastey icecream is sold by a clean and tranquil cafe. Dog, Kids and adults all had fun. I couldn't believe we have wasted so many beach trips to weston when this diamond find was just a little further away.

The site was friendly, clean well presented, toilets cleaned daily, electric hook up reliable and pitch flat and easy to get in and out of entrance to the site. Plenty of space for ball games and to have privacy as each pitch was well spaced out. Directions from owners were spot on and easy to follow.

There is a hobourne site 500 yards walk along the sea front that lets you use their pool with a jacuzzi, £4. 20 adults and £2. 80 kids. Not the biggest pool but we enjoyed it. They also have a Nisa shop well stocked. There is also a working steam train and period station to add to the unique aspect.

Don't miss this site off your visits if you knew what was there you would regret it. BIG BIG thanks to the owners for a wonderful experience.

 I think that I must have been to a different site to the previous reviewers, as we have stayed on better sites at music festivals, the mud and water was ankle deep in parts, to make matters worse the owners cut the long grass and just left it for us to bring inside our awning and caravan.

We did not see the owner again until we were leaving. Needless to say we will not be returning

Reviewer: Colinsrea 10 reviews from this member

 Just came back from Home farm. This is a very basic site with very few basic facilities, 2 toilet/showers at the house and a toilet block 1 ladies and 2 gents in the field. Very flat on a large site so no issues in parking up. There are 5 electric points that are doubled with adapters. Very quiet apart from the birds singing at 5am but the dog loved this site as she could be just let off in the field and have a run around. There are no washing up facilities for tents and to empty the toilet you have to lift a drain cover by the field toilets. So if you like no frills and a cheap site yards from the beach and pub next door, then this is a great site, if you need all the frills then look elsewhere.

Reviewer: MinnieWinnie 5 reviews from this member

 Just spent 3 night at Home Farm, the owner are such friendly helpful people. The site is quiet yet accessible to many places via the local bus which stops 100 yards from site entrance, there is the steam train within walking distances of the site.

The two shower rooms complete with toilet, sink and hairdryer are spotless, and there are two toilets with sinks on the field. Hook ups available.

Blue Anchor pub within walking distance good food very reasonably prices and they let us take the dogs in. Directly over the road is the beach and sea, this site is great for all ages something for everyone yet still peaceful and relaxing. They hold a car boot every Saturday, worth popping along to. The owner gave us a bus time table and marked where we should get on and off and the times. Cant wait to go back great place to get away from the weekly rat race of work!. 


Date of Visit: October 2012 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Mjryan42 8 reviews from this member

 We arrived after a day of rain and the proprietors placed us in the farm yard rather than on the usual camping field. They could not have bee more helpful in ensuring we were connected to electrics, knew where to access the water, a yard light and general facilities. Being in the yard meant we were very close to two excellent and well appointed shower rooms complete with their own hand wash basins, toilets and warm towel radiator. Close by was a room with deep sink and lots of hot water.

Everything was provided including washing up liquid, sponge and bowl. In the shower rooms there was even shower gel and shampoo!

We were very pleased not to be located on the field which got progressively soggier as the rain continued.

It is worth noting that the proprietors no longer run a tea room on site but fresh eggs are available and a few minutes walk away is a small grocery store and public house. The Blue Anchor Station associated with the West Somerset Railway is a short walk from the Farm. The site is close to a wide range of places of interest and would make an ideal touring base with local walks and a bus to Minehead stopping outside the Farm entrance.

Date of Visit: August 2012 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Screech10 1 review from this member

 Lovely quiet site. Basic loos on field with two nice shower room/loos by reception. The sound of the sea to one side and the steam railway to the other. 3 year old loved the farm animals.

Larger campsite next door has a useful shop and pool that is great for children. Smugglers Inn by field gate - great food and bouncy castle that kept children occupied.

Dunster makes a great day out. National Trust castle with picturesque historic village. Good tea shops and beautiful riverside walk.

Thanks to Alison & Tony for making us so welcome. We will definitely be back.

Reviewer: Joner1234 1 review from this member

 We stayed here with 2 toddlers and they have been talking about their stay there ever since.

We have booked again to feed the chickens, lambs and walk along the sea front.

The pub ( Smugglers Arms) I used to visit 20 years ago for posh nosh is next door.

All the toilets and facilities are clean and nice to use.

Lots of eggs to use up so bring some food that goes with them !

Owners were so friendly to the kids as to encourage them to get used to animals.

Not far from Minehead so if you drive a large motorhome, arrive early to be able to park easily by the promenade.

Reviewer: AProc 2 reviews from this member

 Can highly recommend. Facilities great - 2 shower rooms with toilet & basin (clearly fairly new & kept clean with nice loo roll, hairdryers, hand dryers & soap)& another 2 WCs built while we were there, as well as a portable loo.

Free range eggs delicious! Blue Anchor promenade & beach really close (nice to hear the sea when the tide is in!) with beautiful views from the promenade, not the site, across to wales & along the coast to Minehead (day & night time!) Dogs allowed on beach - sandy but also muddy in parts.

Local attractions all easily reached - by car or steam train (dog too!) Nice big field divided into 2, but there was no distinction - both looked the same, nicely mown & flat.

Big (haven type) site next door, but not at all noisy, neither was the pub the other side which serves great food at reasonable prices, great garden, dog & child friendly (bouncy castles for the kids).

Thanks for a great stay! We will be back!

Reviewer: Loladiriri 1 review from this member

 This was a first family camping break with 13 people 1 dog and three tents and this site has won our hearts for camping,

There was not not a single bad thing that I would say about this site,it is clean, flat and there are plenty of water points,

There is a bit of a wind issue at tide times so you need to be sure that our tent is properly anchored as we found out.

There only two toilet/shower units which were always clean and tidy and a single porter loo in the field this could do with some additions too as there were regular queues for them in the mornings, but this can be a good thing as we meet some of the other campers this way,

The site staff were never too busy to answer question or queries that we had although the were very busy,

Reviewer: Wisaacs 5 reviews from this member

 Have stayed here many times with our 2 dogs and tent.

Lovely flat field across road from dog friendly beach. Can get windy when tides change and depending on high tide times there may be a little noise from the fishermen at night.

New for 2011 is the very welcome addition of 2 showers in the toilet block. Only problem is that if showers in use you may have a wait for the loo. Site has done its best to alleviate this when busy by moving in a portable loo from the car boot field.

Allison and Tony aren't running the shop or tea room this year unfortunately but there is a shop on hoburne campsite next door and the pub. There is also the driftwood café within walking distance. You can get eggs (honesty box) on the farm. For a small daily fee plus key deposit you can have access to washing up and ice back freezing facility.

Nice walks direct from site and if you have a tent and don't need a hook-up you can pitch anywhere in the large field and so have plenty of space.

Car boot sale on Saturday afternoons worth a visit.

Only a limited number of hookups and you need to be a c&cc member but you can join on site.

Recommend booking ahead as now they have the showers is going to be more popular.
