Details checked 6 August 2026 Β· source: Google Places A relaxed, friendly and traditional campsite offering access to Exmoor, the coast and beautiful nature reserves. ## About Sparkhayes Farm Camping Site Tucked into the Somerset countryside near Minehead, Sparkhayes Farm is a traditional, no-frills site that strikes a balance between peaceful seclusion and easy access to Exmoor's trails and the nearby coast. The farm setting feels genuinely rural – expect birdsong, open skies, and a friendly, low-key atmosphere that appeals to families and dog owners looking for straightforward camping without resort-style amenities. Pitches come with electric hook-up, and essentials like showers, toilets, and drinking water are provided, though there's no Wi-Fi, which some will consider a blessing. Open year-round, it's a solid base for walkers keen to explore local nature reserves or strike out onto the moor, though the facilities themselves are functional rather than flashy – this is camping as it used to be, and all the better for it. ## Photos Photos via Google ## Can I bring...? β›Ί Tent pitches βœ“ Yes ⚑ Electric: not specified 🚐 Caravans welcome βœ“ Yes 🚌 Motorhomes welcome βœ“ Yes ✨ Glamping available βœ• No πŸ›– Lodges & statics βœ• No ## Hook-up ⚑ Electric hook-up βœ“ πŸ”Œ EV charging βœ• ## 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• πŸ§’ Good for children βœ“ 🚻 Toilets on site βœ“ Allow pets on site Electric hookups Family friendly Showers Toilets W.C. disposal Drinking water Open year round No WiFi ## 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 8NE) 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. - Morrisons, Minehead 5.6 miles - Tesco, Minehead 5.7 miles - Lidl, Minehead 5.7 miles - Co-op, Dulverton 11.9 miles - Sainsbury's, South Molton 16.9 miles - Asda, Barry 18.8 miles - Aldi, Porthcawl 19.1 miles Straight-line distances β€” the drive will be longer.

Just had three very enjoyable nights, lovely site nice open pitches - you can see the sea! Very chilled and relaxed vibe. Walked to Porlock Weir along the coast path and had a great lunch at The Ship and had a sublime dinner are The Old Library Cafe all 5 min walk away in the village. All in all a great mini break. Highly recommend. a year ago Β· via Google Eleanor Dolan β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Lovely campsite. Beautiful views and lovely wild feel even though it is in the village. Very thoughtful has everything you need - fridge, chargers, decent loos, (even spare sleeping bags!) and showers without feeling fussy. a year ago Β· via Google steven proctor β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… It was OK until someone was told by the site, to put their large family tent very close to my small two birth tent. Their guide ropes were literally across my doorway. There was plenty of room on the site. I eventually left two nights early as this made the whole iffy experience, a lot worse. An email was sent to the owner and it was ignored. Never going back Toilets and showers needed a good clean. 10 months ago Β· via Google Hazel Cruise β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Porlock is the most wonderful place to stay. Sparkhayes is in the centre of the village. It's perfect, a sea view, great facilities and friendly staff. Good food in the village and Porlock Weir within walking distance, what more would anyone want.
