Details checked 6 August 2026 Β· source: Google Places Porlock Vale Campsite near Minehead offers tents and motorhomes on nine acres of Exmoor farmland with composting loos and access to Dunkery Beacon. ## About Porlock Vale Campsite Tucked into a spacious nine-acre meadow on the National Trust's Holnicote Estate, Porlock Vale Campsite offers genuine peace in working farmland within Exmoor National Park. Impressive oaks dot the field, while spectacular views stretch towards North Hill, Selworthy Forest and Grabbist Hill. Behind rises Dunkery Commons moorland, easily reached via the farm's bridleway leading to Webber's Post and Dunkery Beacon. Wildlife abounds - buzzards circle overhead, and if you're fortunate you might spot wild red deer, foxes or even beavers and water voles. The National Trust's rewilding projects here make it particularly fascinating for anyone interested in nature recovery and sustainable farming. The site's green ethos extends to composting loos, renewable energy and strict quiet hours after 10pm to respect the wildlife and farm animals. Campfires and barbecues are welcomed. Bossington Beach lies 10 minutes' drive away, Porlock Weir 15 minutes. Facilities are intentionally simple - some reviewers note the basic amenities - but that's rather the point at this adults-only, back-to-nature spot where the field reverts to meadow once the season ends. ## Photos Photos via Google ## Can I bring...? β›Ί Tent pitches βœ“ Yes 🚐 Caravans welcome βœ• No 🚌 Motorhomes welcome βœ“ Yes ✨ Glamping available βœ• No πŸ›– Lodges & statics βœ• No ## Pitch types - β€’ Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch - β€’ Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch Pitch details as listed by the booking provider β€” availability and exact pricing shown at checkout. ## Hook-up ⚑ Electric hook-up βœ• πŸ”Œ EV charging βœ• No electric hook-up listed β€” worth confirming directly if you're bringing a caravan or motorhome. ## Facilities 🚿 Hot showers βœ“ πŸ“Ά Free WiFi βœ• 🏊 Swimming pool βœ• πŸ›’ Onsite shop βœ• 🎠 Children's play area βœ• πŸ– BBQs allowed βœ• πŸ”₯ Campfires allowed βœ• 🧺 Laundry βœ• 🎣 Fishing βœ• πŸ› Hot tub βœ• β™Ώ Accessible facilities βœ• πŸ…ΏοΈ Hardstanding pitches βœ• 🍽️ Bar/restaurant on site βœ• 🚻 Toilets on site βœ“ Composting toilet Local produce Portable toilet Shower available Washing-up area Motorcycle friendly Adults only Barbecues allowed Campfires allowed Commercial vehicles allowed Dogs allowed Dogs allowed all year Budget/backpacker Peaceful Remote location Spectacular scenery ## Takeaway & food delivery Handy if you fancy a night off cooking β€” here's what delivers near this site. ### πŸ₯‘ Just Eat β€” 2 takeaways deliver to this postcode (TA24 8SZ) Vladi's Pizza β˜… 5.0 Β· Pizza, Burgers Smash Corner β˜… 5.0 Β· Pizza, Burgers Checked 26 Aug 2026 β€” always confirm on [justeat.co.uk](https://www.just-eat.co.uk/) before ordering, as coverage can change. ## Nearest supermarkets Handy if you're self-catering or need to stock up on arrival. - Tesco, Minehead 3.8 miles - Lidl, Minehead 3.8 miles - Morrisons, Minehead 3.8 miles - Co-op, Dulverton 10.1 miles - Sainsbury's, South Molton 17 miles - Asda, Barry 18.7 miles Straight-line distances β€” the drive will be longer.

Such a beautiful location, peace and tranquility and the amazement of the view just made the long evening’s relaxing with a drink that made this special. We stayed here as part of our South West Coastal Path Trek, great location. Superb facilities and it’s just right. a year ago Β· via Google Isabelle Leonard β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Had the most amazing trip to Porlock Vale Campsite! The campsite was perfect, set on a quiet field with amazing views of the surrounding area and the Bristol Channel! It was so picturesque and peaceful. Toilet and shower facilities were great. Dawn was so friendly, welcoming and super helpful. She had two gorgeous dogs Mia and Rosie who we all adored! Thank you Dawn for a perfect stay at your campsite, we’ll be recommending to everyone! a year ago Β· via Google Andrew Seaford β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Porlock Vale Campsite. If you're looking for a truly quiet and peaceful countryside location, this is the perfect spot. We felt so relaxed here. The site owner, Dawn, was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which really added to our lovely experience. We would definitely recommend approaching the campsite via Luccombe village and then heading towards Huntscott. The lane from Blackford is very narrow, and the route through Luccombe is much more manageable. a year ago Β· via Google Rhiannon Rosenberg β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Absolutely gorgeous views to wake up to! Dawn is a fantastic host thinking of all the little things. Facilities are fab with a proper toilet and shower. Dog friendly (and Mia and Rosie the herding dogs are wonderful too!). So tranquil and peaceful. As close to wild camping as you can get but with some creature comforts. Thank you Dawn for an excellent stay. 2 years ago Β· via Google [More campsites in Minehead](https://staycation.co.uk/minehead/camping) β˜… 4.7 (23 reviews) From Β£24 per night [Book on Pitchup](https://www.pitchup.com/campsites/England/South_West/Somerset/Minehead/porlock-vale-campsite/) [Visit website](https://www.pitchup.com/campsites/England/South_West/Somerset/Minehead/porlock-vale-campsite/?utm_source=staycation.co.uk&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=campsite) [07860 921007](tel:07860921007) (please mention staycation.co.uk when calling) ### Quick Facts **Destination** Minehead **County** Somerset **Dogs allowed** βœ… Yes **Electric hook-up** ❌ No 🏨 ### Prefer a hotel nearby?
