Anyone got any suggestions for campsites on or near the coast in the
Minehead area?
I have cunningly arranged to take a week off work at the start of August :-)
as nobody else in my team wanted to go then. I feel a trip to the coast is
in order and I have a 5 year-old unused map of Exmoor, so Minehead here I
come!

We have stayed here a few times, tons of walking close and short drive,
family oriented site, cream teas around the corner, shops in Porlock (walk)
or Minehead (drive)

I've stayed at Halse Farm near Winsford where you can walk straight onto
Winsford hill from the site and Dunkery Beacon is not that far. It is
very exposed though so not a good choice if windy, and does slope a bit.
I've seen good reviews of Sparkhayes Camping Site at Porlock, but I've
not been there.

It's a bit further down the coast, but we have stayed at Channel View
near Lynmouth:

Friendly owners, they even opened the site a day earlier than they
planned to fit in with us. We also did a deal with the Beggars Roost pub
next door to cook us breakfast.
Thinks: 'I must go back there soon'.

The camping club site at Minehead.
Very quiet and no caravans as the hill is to steep for them.
For a cyclist £3.40 high season, £2.25 low season.

The YH at Lynton is very nice and you have the fun of going up the funicular
to it too. Depends if you are a member. i would guess anywhere there will
be very booked up at the mo. There is a Butlins at Minehead if you can bear
this.

I've stayed there. It was lovely and quiet; the toilets and showers
were clean and tidy. It didn't seem too expensive, and everyone was
very friendly. I'd go back there if I wanted a site in that area.
