  • Family-run site in Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
  • Sea views; a 15-minute drive to the edge of Exmoor National Park
  • 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 a short drive from beaches 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 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 serves drinks only, which is only open on Friday and Saturday.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: Lovely quiet clean site, excellent shower/toilet facilities and friendly helpful staff. Numerous beaches close by but mostly stony/ pebbled but Minehead is only 20 minutes up the road if you are looking for sand and shops.

Disliked: Sadly access to the beach from the site was unavailable due to storm damage but this can’t be blamed on the site. No Wi-Fi at touring pitches but good Wi-Fi at the clubhouse.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback 😊

Liked: The friendliness of the staff. Pool was good, funny set up but nice pool.

Disliked: The unkept touring pitches and super trickly showers. Bea h path wa shut which was annoying as we weren’t told about this before we arrived, when we booked it was open.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are so sorry that you did not enjoy your stay, we are very proud of our touring area. There is currently no access to the beach and we have noted this on pitch up, the beach is accessible from our neighboring site.

Amazing campsite, clean throughout, staff helpful and knowledgeable.

Liked: This campsite was amazing, staff on reception really helpful, with lots of local knowledge. The indoor swimming pool was lovely and warm. My child loved playing in the play park. Amusements were great. Food menu basic but that’s all you need at a campsite.

Disliked: Shower could be a bit more powerful.

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.
