  • Family-run site in Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
  • Steps away from the beach; close to walks on the coast path
  • Swimming pool, tennis and boules on site
Views, glorious views… the area surrounding award-winning St Audries Bay Holiday Club near Minehead is the setting for splendid Somerset sights. The park is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the foot of the Quantock Hills, it's close to the beach on the Somerset coast and has views across the Bristol Channel to Wales: bring your camera. That setting is a most handy one for getting out and about too: hikers can head up into the Quantock Hills, get out onto the South West Coast Path (just a few hundred metres away) or expand their horizons to the nearby Exmoor National Park. Both Bridgwater and Taunton are on the M5 15 miles away, and you can hit the sands of Minehead with a drive of about 25 minutes. St Audries Bay has been family-owned and run since 1933 and has picked up a goodly handful of awards along the way, so it’s safe to assume they know what to lay on for guests of all ages whatever the weather: among the options on offer are tennis, boules, fishing, an adventure playground and a swimming pool. There's also a bar, which is generally only open during school holidays and weekends (although it cannot be guaranteed).

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Everything….immaculately kept site throughout. Toilets/showers kept beautifully fresh and clean. The swimming pool is warm, clean and very inviting for a refreshing swim. Beautiful sea views from the level touring pitches and great beach/hillside walks. The stunning waterfalls are an added bonus on the beach. Small shop on site, games room and snooker room with perfect views across the bay. The sites remote rural coastal location is great for a relaxing peaceful holiday. The staff on site are very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We have already booked to go back.

Disliked: The descent down the steps to the beach can be a little tricky in the wet with the ground being a bit uneven in places too.

Local attractions

Pick up a safari tour at Dulverton or Dunster to see Exmoor’s wildlife in sit-down style, or take to your feet or wheels to explore the park’s walking and biking routes. Going there by night? Exmoor National Park is the first designated International Dark Sky Reserve in Europe: watch the stars at Haddon Hill or Wimbleball Lake, the first designated Dark Skies Discovery Site on Exmoor. The country park at Wimbleball is worth hanging around for a day or two too: it’s managed by the South West Lakes Trust and has an activity centre, trout fishery, bike route and nine-mile lake walk. Minehead, nine miles away from St Audries Bay, has a couple of record breakers: it’s the starting point of Britain’s longest walking trail, the South West Coast Path, and it has the country’s longest standard-gauge heritage railway, West Somerset Railway, starting at its station and running just over 20 miles to Bishops Lydeard. Weston-super-Mare is also within easy driving distance and has miles of clean beaches, a refurbished pier, a SeaQuarium, more donkeys and Britain’s only helicopter museum: give it a whirl. There are several other Somerset essentials to see within driving distance: cider farms at Taunton and Washford, two vineyards at Bridgwater, the Blackdown Hills to hike after the Quantocks, and famous Glastonbury and its abbey about 40 minutes’ drive away.
