Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Very remote. Idyllic for us. We had the whole two fields to ourselves and sheep in the neighbouring fields and a hare walked past our tent as we were quiet it was lovely. Steep hill with gravel and one bit with mud to get up on our bikes but we made. As we are lucky enough to have adventure motorbikes. A little walk about a field away to the basic toilet and sink.But I love the quietness and wild feeling of it all. PYO Blueberries in neighbouring field with an aged with scales and an honesty box. Did love this wild back to basics campsite

Liked: A lovely, remote spot to camp. It was so peaceful and being on a hill, there are great views into the valley below. I'd definitely return in the future.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: The area was amazing! Beautiful countryside, long grass made for a comfy nights sleep and the pitches were flat, sooooo many stars at night. Clean flushing toilet and the blueberries are the best I’ve ever tasted! The host was very accommodating and friendly. I am glad I found this campsite as I will return.

Disliked: Nothing.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: The quiet remoteness of the campsite and that it was so wild. Simon the host was fantastic, he made sure we had everything we needed and left us to it. Exford is also a fantastic place for eating and generally walking to on the footpath. We would love to come go back in Blueberry season, perfect campsite!

Route directions

In blueberry-picking season, look out for the Exmoor Blueberries PYO sign by the Crown Hotel in Exford, and then follow further signs along the way. At the ford, turn right to access the site (rather than following the sign pointing left to access the blueberry fields). Outside of blueberry season (when there will be no signs at the Crown Hotel), turn for Porlock at the Crown Hotel and in 60 yards, with the village green on your left, turn onto Combe Lane. The site is a mile along from here – keep going when the tarmac runs out as you go through a ‘hedgebank tunnel’ and then emerge onto a concrete track. Follow the concrete track along for 30 yards to a right turn, which is the site’s drive. Cross the ford (usually a maximum of one inch of water) and then turn right to enter the yard. Honk your horn loudly to announce your arrival, or bang the brass knocker on the green door of the house. What3words for the reception: correctly.safest.goofy. Latitude: 51° 8'41.36"N.
