Spent one night here en route to Wales. Expensive compared to other places when taking into consideration the facilities. £14 quoted on phone per night small 2 man tent with car. Owner friendly yet tried to charge £16 when paying (not including plastic pegs)! no hot water in mens toilets seemed to be too few facilities for ladies even though it was quiet - still queues!
Just got back from a night spent at Sand Farm. We were disappointed with the site, and wouldn't go back there.
It's in a quiet location, about 3 miles out from Weston-super-Mare, and close to the local beach.
The owner was nice enough and welcoming. We didn't ask how much it was before we arrived, and were a bit surprised - £17.50 for 2 people for one night in a smallish tent. You'll also need to add on the cost of the plastic tent pegs you need to buy (metal pegs not allowed), which are sold at £1.50 for 10. At £19 for one night, I think it's the most expensive site we've stayed at.
The tent field is level and mown. It was quiet when we arrived - two other families, so plenty of room.
The facilities were very basic, and not brilliantly kept. There was no toilet paper in any toilet in the evening - meaning a hasty trip to the pub (I'd recommend The Captain's Cabin on Birnbeck Road if you're driving - you just follow the road along the coast and can park on the road above it). One roll of toilet paper had been put in each toilet the following morning though.
We couldn't work out how to make the lights or the hand driers work in either the men's or women's toilets - the former makes for an interesting midnight loo trip if only one person has a torch!
We also suffered from a large party arriving in three motorhomes who were noisy and drunk until very late at night, and again when they were getting ready to leave at 6.30 the following morning - so not a great night's sleep. (Although the owner can't be blamed for people's behaviour, it would be nice if some of the many rules you're handed on a piece of paper when you arrive were enforced.)
I think places to pitch in the area are quite limited if you're in a tent, and if you really want to camp locally it's convenient enough. So if you don't mind paying over the odds for an adequate campsite and can remember to pack your toilet roll, your spare torches and your ear plugs, I suppose there are worse places to stay.
A quiet site, in a tranquil location; the site is located in Sand Bay, a 2 minute walk (100 yards) from the beach and a short stroll to the picturesque headland walks. Our Dog enjoyed the walks. The sandy beach is a joy to beachcombers who will find all sorts of flotsam and jetsam washed up on the shoreline. The estuary is certainly not a place to contemplate swimming in but the sand is good enough for a sand castle or two. There is a free car park and public toilet very close to the beach.
Amenities in the village were disappointing; there are a few pubs with tables outside (lovely local cider). The only place for food within a short walk of the site (with dog) was the local fish and chip shop (with ample seating on the wall outside or on the promenade), which closes are 9:30 :-(
Be warned, there is no local shop you will need to go into W-S-M to stock up.
Amenities in the site were basic but include the necessities; drinking water, toilet block with showers and toilets (the building is in very good repair but needed a clean) the site owner had switched off the hand dryers due to customer misuse!
Hook ups available for tents and others, good idea to request when booking. They are 10amp ONLY so no heaters permitted and no generators permitted either. This was great as there is nothing worse than having to pitch our tent next to a generator….
A laundry service is available on request.
No metal tent pegs! Plastic tent pegs are required; these are available from the site owner at a very reasonable price.
Check in is usually 2pm and departure 10:00 am, pay in full on arrival.
We stayed after the T4 weekend, there was a fair bit of rubbish on the camping field we pitched up in, despite there being lots of bins for the rubbish it is a real pity some campers can't work out how to use them.
Overall it is a lovely little site which we will certainly revisit if we return to Weston Super Mare. Very Dog friendly :-)
We have just visited this campsite. We were a group of 7 24-28 year olds. The owners were very helpful on arrival and sold plastic pegs which the campsite requires. We arrived around 9pm on a Friday night and the campsite was not too busy, we had plenty of space. The atmosphere is quite family orientated but as we were so far away from the other campers this was not a problem and as long as you don't make too much noise after midnight then all was fine. Location is lovely, nice country walks and the sea is about ten minutes away. We will stay again!
Have used this site loads of times can't praise it enough. Kids love it, look there is not much there but it's clean, friendly, welcoming and to be honest it's close enough to home but far away enough to be relaxing. I'll definitely use this site again and again
This award winning Adults Only campsite has a working 17th century watermill in a peaceful wooded valley within the Exmoor National Park. Grass and hardstanding pitches, all set beside the River Exe or the sparkling mill stream, with electric, water, drainage, and TV hook-ups. A leisurely stroll up to a weir, and an area where dogs may run free and splash in the river.
Facilities include the beautiful dog walk, free wifi, fishing, modern toilet and shower block, dog wash, working watermill (tours on most Sunday mornings), salmon pass on the weir, shop, bus service, and excellent pubs in the locality. The site has beautiful views, an abundance of wildlife and many footpaths leading directly to the Exmoor woodlands and rivers. Find out more here
Friendly welcome from the owner. Plenty of space, and the grass was lovely. Despite the weather, it was lovely! VERY close to the sea. Facilities were good, though only one shower.
20 minute walk to local pub which served lovely food. Tip: Follow the white signs for toll road for Weston Super Mare.Up the hill! Much shorter in distance.
Tip: campsite only use plastic hooks, which we thought was most odd, but was informed that after a near accident, they only allow plastic hooks to be used. (you can purchase on site) Despite this, our Tent held in the strong winds! :-)
Friendly welcome from the lady who runs the site. Plenty of space, there were only 2 other tents in our field. Lovely views and fresh air, literally 5 mins walk from beach! Toilets and showers were nice and clean, with flowers in the ladies. Very quiet site, suited for older people or families with kids who want to avoid the drunks etc. Only downside was that because we have a 8 berth tent, we had to pay for 2 pitches, but the man on the phone never told us that when we booked. Tip: The site is only 4 miles from Weston Super Mare, but if you follow the councils signs you'll drive literally around the entire outskirts of Weston before getting to the beach parking. Instead, just drive 'as the crow flies' from the campsite to Weston beach, it'll take 10 mins max depending on traffic. We initially followed the signposts and ended up all over the place!
