 A beautiful site in rolling green countryside- very peaceful. New toilet & shower block built 2 years ago & still looks brand new. Plenty of continuous hot water. All spotlessly clean.
Very quiet during the night & staff very friendly.
Definitely recommend this lovely place.

Excellent location, surrounded by Exmoor. The staff were very friendly. Shower and washing up facilities are good. Showers are continual flow ie. No need to keep turning on! Went with our 14mth son and he loved seeing the horses return to the field in the evenings.

We have just returned from a fantastic week at this site.
It is really peaceful with very good, spotless facilities - free showers with lovely hot water! We had a large tent and could pitch wherever we wanted - yes, the field is sloping but this didn't affect us much.
It is a very friendly site and lovely and quiet - no play area or entertainment. In fact a perfect get away from it all site.
There's loads to do in the surrounding area with several National Trust properties within easy driving distance.Also there are lots of walks nearby - several of which start at the campsite! Our 2 kids (4 and 2) loved it and so did we - we will be back!

Just spent the weekend here and echo other reviews. We arrived at the end of whitsun week and the site was pretty busy. Upon arrival we were taken to the flattest available pitch and asked if it was suitable. The guy (owner?) offered to get some boards to level up the van if we needed them. The pitches with EHU seemed to be flatter over all, but the slope was not a problem for us.
It's a very clean and peaceful place. The toilets, showers and wash up remained spotless and there was always hot water. The showers were some of the best we've used. Little on site shop sold a selection of goods and was very useful.
There is no children's play area, but it's not really needed as our 2 boys spent hours playing in the woods at the top of the site. They also loved the stream. Although dogs have to be exercised off site, there is a gate straight into the woods with a bin for waste. This really is better than a small patch of grass labelled as a dog exercise area like at other places we've been to.
Great place for walking, hiking, cycling or just just plain old chilling out and relaxing. We will definitely go back here again.

Another fantastic stay at our favourite holiday location on Burrowhayes Farm.
1st stayed in a tent.. then in one of Julians ( the owner ) static vans and now we take our folding camper there.
This is our 13th year visiting the site and all I can say is that it is great.
Small and friendly, well stocked shop with realistic opening times, excellent facilites ( pot wash, laundry with washing machines, spinner, iron, tumble dryer, spotlessly clean toilets, showers, disabled facilities and family washroom / shower).
If you need a TV then this is not the site for you as you won't get a picture as you are deep in the Horner woods.
Vans / tents are excellently spaced out and there are multiple bins / water / waste disposal points around the site.
Nice and quiet at night and bbq's are allowed.
The local village is a 20min walk away,with pubs,shops and a chippie, or Minehead around 6 miles or so.
Burrowhayes Farm is also a working stables and the horse rides are very popular with fellow campers young and old alike and a 1/2hr pony walk and lead is only £6.00! A real bargain..
If you want a relaxing peaceful holiday on a friendly,welcoming site,with excellent facilites and spectacular views,then this is the place for you...
You won't be disappointed.

We have visited this site on several occasions over the past few years. The owners have always been friendly & helpful. The toilets are kept clean & the facilities are good. The pitches for the tents are sloping, but in no way is this a problem.
The walk in the surounding woods is very pleasent & the site it's self was relaxed & quite. With it's location within Exmoor there is a lot to be said for this site. I would recommend this site to anyone it has something to offer everyone.

A really nice site with the staff being very friendly. The TV reception there is very poor but the site owner loaned me a TV extension lead to hook up to his satelite receiver.
The shop sells a booklet with local walks in it. Following the instructions on one walk caused me to get lost for a while on the moors above the site. Its a wonderfully cryptic guide!
Would I go again- YES

Good points:
Excellent facilities, toilets, pot washing, laundry etc. Helpful owner and staff. Good shop.
Coped very well in wet weather, toilets still kept clean. Even when site was full.
Bad points:
Hard to think of any, site slopes a bit and the far end can get a bit boggy.
Summary:
Excellent, would use it again, and have done frequently over the last four years.

Really lovely campsite. Friendly owners, sparkling new washrooms with hot showers, hand dryers, hair dryers, baby room, well-stocked shop, pot wash, laundry etc. Sloping ground for tents but could put up with that due to the gorgeous location. Woods at the top of the campsite - from where you can directly join some lovely walks through Horner Wood etc up onto Granny's Ride, with great views. Porlock only half a mile, we had our bikes so we just cycled into the village (but mind the hill coming back!) Horse and pony riding for those that want it - we didn't, but the sight of the horses in the field as the sun is setting was one I shall not forget! And only £8 a night!! Definitely one of my favourites, nice and quiet even though quite full at the weekend.

This site was fantastic!! It is one on a very few campsites that I would go back to again. The toilets are spotless, the showers free and tempeture adjustable. The owners are very friendly, and the horse riding stables were a welcome distraction. The site is level/ sloping with the tourers on the level ground, causing some comment from the tent dwellers! A small shallow stream borders the campsite, the kids loved it.
The car broke down and the wife was rushed into Taunton hospital for a night, but this did nothing to distract from the fact that this is a cracking little site and we thoughly enjoyed our stay.
We shall return.

Spent 9 nights here - fantastic site, the new shower block is great. Shop good, staff helpful, and kids loved the pony rides.
Site was full, but never felt overcrowded.
Tent pitches are a little on the slope, so take some wooden blocks to level out your table etc!
Will be returning for sure.

Stunning site with a new facility block of the highest standard. The toilets, showers and pot room are really spotless. There's a useful shop on site and pony treking available should you fancy it.
Porlock is just a few minutes drive or fifteen minutes walk away with plenty of shops.
The only negative point is that the site slopes a fair bit so pick your pitch carefully or like us you will be in for a long steep walk to fetch water or use the facilities. Overall though the rest of the site and area more than made up for this one minus point.

Initation of fire: camping with a baby and 4yr old, made all the easier by staying here.
It was a perfect campsite, in the woods with walks and rides on the horses available. Showers and washing up facilities were top notch, clean, tidy and take into account family shower rooms etc.
Near the shops, but far enough away.
Loved it. want to go back. Yes, it slopes slightly (so find a good pitch!).
The only thing that would make this an even better, was if they offered a cloth (real) nappy laundry service. then I would have a holiday from washing too!! : )
Congrats to the owners who worked so hard to make the site a good one!
