So well kept and lovely atmosphere.

Stayed at Exebridge Club site twice this year, on both hardstanding and grass pitches. Despite rain, the grass pitches remain well maintained. The site is beautiful and a credit to the wardens who are very pleasant and welcoming. Easy access to the site from the M5 and once sited, within easy reach of the national park and the lovely coastline. Lots to explore and do in the area coupled with the peace, tranquility and amazing views from the site. highly recommended.

A seasonal stay

We have stayed at this site for the first time from March to October not only was it a lovely quiet site with beautiful views it was close enough to the coast to reach in 40 mins. And the Moors in 15 mins to give us plenty to occupy us for the season. This coupled with an exceptionally hard working site team consisting of Gale and Mark who kept the site spotless with a smile on their faces despite the weather made a really great summer experience would not hesitate to recommend this site for a quiet Holliday

Highly recommended site.

Just back from 3 nights here in our camper van on our second visit to this site, Very quiet, lovely surrounding countryside and a superbly maintained site in every respect. Shower/toilet/laundry/washing-up block was immaculate. Showers are excellent and have the benefit of a seat inside each cubicle. Mark and Gail, the site managers, were efficient, very friendly and are a great credit to the Club. The Anchor Inn is probably less than a 10 minute walk away on a foot path leading directly from the site which goes past attractive fishing lakes. The pub's food was good, served quickly, but I would expect the place would be very busy indeed in peak season as it is very attractive, has a superb location right beside the river and a delightful beer garden at the back (for info, we paid £14-£15 each just for a basic main course like lasagne and salad). They serve breakfasts fro 9am too. Sunday hours for food service may change, apparently. Not sure how families with young children would rate this particular site - no games room, play area out of use (?). For that reason alone, I have scored the site a 3 in the relevant category, but that is entirely subjective. There were just the two of us, both aged 65++, so we were not looking for anything apart from peace and quiet and didn't need entertaining! Very nice dog-walking field on-site. Tip - the road to Dulverton passes one boundary of the site. It wasn't horribly busy when we stayed but pitches nearest to the road, on the highest level of the site (to the left as you drive past the amenities block), may suffer from some traffic noise. Overall, definitely one of the nicest, most attractive, quiet Club sites we've visited. We'll be back for sure. Our sincere thanks to Gail and Mark.

Clean and peaceful

This latest visit (20-30) June was our 4th or 5th visit to the site because it is very close to West Anstey Riding Stables on the moor. It's a peaceful relaxing pretty site with nice sunsets. The local pub The Anchor Inn is a short walk away and serves excellent food. We were however disappointed this time as there was no shop in reception and we were told that there is too much red tape to run a shop which is a real shame because in the past we have relied on that. Also the playground was condemmed and with having a child under 5 this was also a disappointment. The toilet block is immaculate and the showers are hot . In fact the site was not full and the best pitches are now been taken by seasonal caravans. We will return to this site but it's not as good as it was.

Tranquil site

Another excellent stay on the service pitches at one of the better CMHC sites. Lucky enough to pick up the WiFi Hot spot signal from our pitch and good TV signal without using the hook up on the bollard. Nice warm welcome from the wardens who worked hard to keep the facilities up to scratch. Some excellent views of the surrounding countryside and just a 5 minute walk to the pub via the fishing lakes. I agree with the previous review about the state of the local roads in the area, full of pot holes and hard to spot due to the shadows of the trees. The children's play area is still closed due to unsafe equipment. Duster castle and Knighthayes NT properties both worth a visit. Noticed a large number of seasonal hardstanding pitches and if it wasn't for a large group of New Companions members the site would have been half full. Probably a sign that the club seem to be going in the wrong direction with ever increasing prices, deposits , dynamic pricing and a booking system that is not user friendly and worse than the previous system.

Picturesque and quiet

We have been here before, during the summer heatwave; the site is still as lovely as ever. Large pitches, beautiful views, fantastic area and friendly, helpful wardens. We like the lake, that can be used, if you're a fishermen, that is located at the bottom of the site. It's close to Minehead, the coastal route, via Porlock, to Exmoor, the unrivalled views across North Somerset, the Ponies and finally the drive to Lynton and Lynmouth. Great place all round.

Bank Holiday Stay on a Grass Pitch

We returned to Exebridge to stay for the bank holiday, we know this site well having been regular visitors for many years and are aware that the grass pitches are not available unless the hardstandings are filled due to planning regulations. Luckily we timed our arrival well and arrived just after the final hardstanding was taken so were able to take our pick of the grass pitches. In Summer we prefer to be on grass and the pitches at Exebridge are very well maintained. The site looks exceptional this year, the site managers Gail and Mark work hard to maintain standards and go above and beyond to help and take care of visitors. The facilities were spotless, the hedges have been tidied and the height is now great for enjoying the views over the local countryside. It would be good if the planning regulations could be challenged to enable members to have a choice of hardstanding or grass pitches during the summer season. Exebridge Lakeside is our favourite site and we look forward to returning again soon.

A Super Relaxing Holiday - We Will Definitely Be Back! 5* Recommended

It was our first time staying at this site following recommendations and watching some video's on YouTube. The site is set in a beautiful location and is very easy to access from the main routes. This is very quiet and relaxing site to stay on. The site is run by Gail and Mark who have recently taken over as wardens. They run the site with immense pride and they are constantly cleaning and cutting the grass and trimming the hedges while at the same time being available to answer members questions. On arrival you are greeted by beautiful flowers (Marks Begonias!) outside the office. The hard standing pitches are super wide and are easy to get onto. If you have a motor mover you can go on forwards and take advantage of the views of Exe Valley. There are grass pitches on site that are set out the same and very easy to park on. If you are up early you may hear the owls in the trees and see the rabbits running around the site. There is a play park for families with young children that is well maintained and a large dog walking area. We have seen on some older YouTube video's that it shows a games room. This has now gone. There is a walk down through the site to some lakes and onto a pub called the Anchor inn. This does great food and has river views where you can sit outside to eat when the sun shines. You are very close to Dulverton that has a Co-op and everything you will need. From there you have lots to do and see. Tarr Steps, Minehead, Withypool Team Rooms, Lynton & Lynmouth not to mention some amazing views of the Moors! We loved our stay here and will 100% go back to visit this site. It is lovely.

We have just returned from a 2 week stay here, from the moment we arrived the management were really helpful and knowledgeable and could not do enough for you and very helpful. Mark was so helpful as it was my boys first time at the fish lake and gave them a lot of encouragement and help on how to fish also even took the time to come down to the lake to see how they was getting on. The site was very clean and well maintained would recommend a stay, see you next year and thanks again. Erica, Terry Harvey and Alfie

Exactly what I needed.

I have just retuned from a 5 night stay using the site as a base as I was on a course. From the moment I arrived, Gail made me feel really welcome and allayed my fears about pitching up by myself (First trip in caravan without the other half) What a lovely, peaceful and quiet site with plenty of space on each pitch. The site itself was clean, tidy and set in beautiful gardens. I didn't get a chance to explore the whole site or the dog walk but was told by other residents how good it was. A meander down past the fishing lake took me to the local pub which is really a lovely place - highly recommended!!
