Excellent site friendly staff. Medium size but feels smaller because of banks and trees dividing it up. Great location on the edge of Minehead. Make sure to visit the old harbour area and 'Upper Town' so different to the 20th century side of the town. Highly recommend Hidden Histories of Minehead on phone walking tours. https://minehead.storywalks.info/
The local fish and chip shop by the roundabout served us some of the best we've had in a long time. Great walks all around especially Dunster and with good weather in Jan we only paid £21 pn what's not to like.
Smashing little site, great for exploring Exmoor and Minehead
Really nicely laid out little site, little cul-de-sacs make it feel quite secluded, and good screening of the site from banks and trees make it very sheltered too - I barely felt the tail end of Storm Barra, tucked into the bank as I was! (It reduces noise from the nearby road too.) The dogs loved the woodland dog area, although I would have felt more relaxed with them scampering about if the area was fully secure. (But that's down to me to do more training!)
It was only a 2-nighter for my first visit here, but I will certainly be back. Exmoor is a favourite, and this site is very handy, whilst being sheltered and also close to Minehead, with supermarkets, good local shops, plenty of fuel, eateries, etc etc. Not to mention the beach of course :).
The Best CAMC Site We've Visited
A short break of 3 nights, mid November and it was excellent. The site team were really warm and genuine with a great welcome and really caring attitude. The site is relatively small and is well laid out with small cul-de-sac pitch areas, which add to the feeling of privacy and seclusion. The sites was really quiet and peaceful, set in woodland, which provided welcome shelter from the Autumn breezes, but inevitably led to large volumes of leaf fall, but the site team were on the case each day keeping them at bay. The site is very well located, around a 15 minute walk to Minehead sea front or town centre, which offers plenty of dog-friendly cafes, pubs and other facilities - definitely worth mentioning the Hairy Dog (pub) and Butterflies Cafe as two really welcoming and very dog-friendly businesses. We will definitely be returning in the near future and Thank You to the Site Team for keeping the site so great and the best CAMC site we've visited so far!
A Great Site
We like this site because there are so many walks directly from the site. You can pick up the coast path on the seafront or walk over the hill behind to Dunster. If that’s too far just walking down to the seafront is pleasant and if you time your visit correctly there is the steam train and the open top bus to take you further afield. It’s very useful having the local shops and restaurant as well. The site can feel slightly more cramped than others as cars tend to have to park in front of the caravan and awning rather than alongside. Not sure about what was happening with the staffing this time as the lovely lady seemed to be managing on her own which meant ringing the bell and waiting for assistance. Felt sorry for her as the site was very full. For a very small site the number of speeding drivers was extraordinary, both car drivers (members and visitors clearly) and Motorhomes. It would seem despite the club’s efforts people still don’t understand the need to reduce their speed and must feel what they are doing is acceptable. The poster outside reception detailed the excessive driving that had been taking place but I suspect no one read it. Would it be sensible to hand this out and to have some driver education?
first outing in our camper van
This was our first visit to the Minehead Club Site and it won`t be our last. We love this area of the country and have visited Minehead and Dunster many times.
We found the staff to be really friendly and the fellow campers were great to chat to.
Bathroom facilities were very clean.
We will definitely be back especially as this site is open all year round.
Excellent Site.
This is the second time we have stayed at Minehead Club site. The staff are friendly helpful and knowledgeable
The site and facilities are very clean and there is always hot water.
It is only a ten minute walk into Minehead centre were you can find places to eat and drink and all the shops you would need.
There is a promenade that will take you to the harbour and give access to the national coastal path, walking the opposite way will on the promenade will give you take you to Dunster beach and Dunster castle.
The open top bus to Lynmouth via Exmoor is not to be missed, (don't forget your bus pass!)
Super site
Our 1st time at this site, but it wont be our last! Very clean modern facilities, terrific site staff who work very hard to keep it clean and tidy for and make our stay such a pleasant one. Great walk to Dunster Castle and such a pretty village. You must do the open top bus trip to Lynmouth, the scenery is spectacular. Thank you

Clean and Tidy
Site down a lane tight left hand turn then down another tight lane, worth it when you on site, open setting. Wardens pleasant and helpful, site must have been full as a pitch had been allocated to me, poor pitch number 93 avoid at all costs, dog walkers happy to walk across your pitch to reach the dog walk even when you are sitting outside, some signage to tell people to "keep off the grass" might be helpful Toilet block very modern and clean.

Lovely friendly site
A site local to us, but it did not disappoint. The wardens are lovely and friendly and will go out of their way to talk to you. This is a quiet site, local to Minehead, which suited us perfectly especially as it is the school summer holidays. Facilities were always spotlessly clean. Needless to say, we will be back (many times!), as even though it is ‘just down the road’, it felt a million miles away!
