Stayed here for three nights on way back from Cornwall. Hurn Lane is narrow and you certainly wouldn’t want to meet another caravan coming the other way. Made sure we were off nice and early. Staff were friendly and the site well presented. Dog walking area very small. A lot of noise late into the evening from the nearby holiday home site. The 4 bands on hook was ok except only three showers in use in our block and I was caught out twice being the 4th person entering to find no shower available. Also my band was taken a number of times. 15 minute walk to the beach from site.
Happy to return to Hurn Lane
This was our 2nd visit to Hurn lane having used it last year as an overnight stop and been so impressed we decided to return and were not disappointed. It was our first experience of the Covid-19 arrangements and we were reassured as all went smoothly. No queues at the female blocks but the men were queuing a bit and we could have done with a bit of clarity around family groups. My husband and sons acted as if they were 3 individuals so all 3 queued in turn but in the womens blocks women were taking their kids in on one wrist band. Apart from that it was okay. From the site we walked to Brent Knowl and it was a lovely peaceful walk. Fellow walkers were really respectful too so no problems on narrow footpaths. We also cycled from the site past Brean to the National Trust car park at the end and walked up the headland. We know from past experience that the beaches are not for us - we are swimmers and they are not swimmers beaches so we were happy to walk along the beaches and save our dip in the sea for our next destination. We loved our grass pitch which was next to a hedge. The site was fairly quiet despite it being the main summer holiday so we will definitely keep this site on our list to return to. On our return journey we used Cheddar as our site to break our journey and are torn between the two really. We heard a bit of noise from the neighbouring site at night but it all quietened down by about 11 pm which we were all okay with. The site was immaculately clean and the wardens could be seen most of the time doing extra cleaning.

Great site but.....
We visit this site a few times a year since owning our motorhome 3 years ago, its always quiet well kept by the wardens who do a fantastic job and its close to the beach....but...we visited Hurn for 3 nights in August and how different it was, there were kids running wild in gangs pulling wheelies on their bikes, fighting, running and riding through peoples pitches, dog mess in the dog walking area i picked up 4 bags in one morning ( Not even my own dogs mess) we had our grand kids with us for the first time and they were watching the goings on in amazement, I told a lad off for doing wheelies nearly running into me i had to stop in my tracks, only to get a look and did another wheelie, one lad gave our granddaughter a 2 finger salute for no reason she is 6yrs old, I can only describe some of those children as ferrel, they were up still riding bikes and running around site at 10pm the wardens was doing their best going out at 10pm to speak to them, only to get back chat, which I withessed. I commend the wardens they were trying their hardest, personally I would not want their job, they were fantastic they kept the site clean as always, but we wont be going away in August again, what an eye opener, those dear wardens need a long earned rest after this month, is it because of Covid and being off from school for months with nothing to do or no where to go, or are those kids always like this?? I feel the parents should have more control over their children, and the kids should have more respect for the wardens and other site members. Rant over ...but all in all apart from this episode we generally love CMC sites, but will choose our dates more causiously in future or book adult only sites during school holidays.

Probably a different view to most who have visited before...
This was a short stay on our way home from Cornwall. Directions a little confusing as where is the Triangle garage?
Access little tricky with site off a single track road, although not too far. When leaving, make sure you get off in good time for those early arrivals - there is obviously a good reason for not arriving before 12!
Anyway, received a good welcome from the site staff, good pitch and very organised especially with current covid situation. The band system for the facilities block is good but there are people who still please themselves! I noted 5 people in the block on one occasion and one of our bands was picked up by someone else before we came out. Also, contrary to rules, people were walking across occupied pitches. We still felt relaxed on site and it was a good job as the surroundings weren’t to our taste. Gypsy/traveller communities very close by and while walking along to Brean for the first time, had 2 young lads walk past us with a BB style gun pointing at people! Sorry to sound negative, but we will not be returning to this area again even though the site itself is fine.
Cars parked on the beach and not a place where you can paddle in the sea really.
Felt that Brean, Burnham and Weston seemed a little neglected. So much litter and dog mess about. Such a shame really.
Great break after weeks in lockdown
What can we say. This was the first time out this year, and our first as official members of the club. What a great campsite. We have moved away from joint sites with tents due to the late night noise etc, but here was very peaceful and quite.
Lovely facilities and plenty of space around each van. Our kids enjoyed exploring the local area and we even felt confident enough to allow them to explore the caravan site on their own (together) they as we loved it.
We will definitely be back when we holiday again in Somerset.
Well done team on maintaining great standards for the toilets/showers, check in was super easy and we felt very welcome by all staff members and other caravaners.
Thank you
Peaceful
This was our first trip in our motorhome. My husband, my 14 year old daughter and I and our dog visited this site 3 weeks ago. The staff were very friendly and eager to help. The site was easy to find and the grounds were so tidy. This being our first site we had ever stayed on I was very pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness of the facilities, they were cleaned regularly and the grounds were always kept tidy. Only a short walk to the beach. We like to go places where it is peaceful and quiet and where we can relax outside on an evening, this site tucked all those boxes. We would definitely go again. Thanks to all at Hurn Lane.
Perfect
Stayed 5 nights 13 July. Great location, bus stop nearby to Burnham or Weston. My only criticism was the sanitizer which was either empty or failed to work especially at the service points. Usual high caravan club standards. Helpful friendly staff.
Perfect
Myself, husband and dog stayed here two weeks ago, our first experience of caravan/camping, we picked a perfect pitch, lots of room for our dog to run around, all facilities were clean and well maintained.At the time we were there it was peaceful but I can imagine it to get nosier as there is another site directly next to our pitch. The beach over the road is amazing, well you have to walk along the narrow winding lane but that was fine,our dog loved it. We stayed two nights but we wasn’t ready to leave so will be booking again very soon!
hurn lane , good site
I have been coming to Hurn Lane for years now, It's a quiet level site, plenty to do out and about. Dog site is small and you have to be careful walking on the roads, so be aware of that. I normally say that the site is CC standard, but with the pandemic, I feel that the team there have excelled themselves. We felt safe while we were there , so well done.
Hurn Lane
Another lovely stay at Hurn Lane, wardens are doing a grand job with the arm bands system for the toilets & showers would recommend this site for short or long stays.
