Burrowhayes Farm Caravan & Camping Site And Riding Stables is located just outside of Porlock, Somerset. Burrowhayes Farm provides a central position for touring the whole of Exmoor with its wooded valleys, streams, hills and coastal scenery.
There are 19 modern caravans available for hire, well spaced around the field beside Horner Water, with ample room for cars and games. Each caravan is connected to mains water and drainage and has its own WC and shower. They range from one-bedroom, four-berth units to two-bedroom, six-berth models and are fully equipped with everything required except personal linen and towels. Heating and cooking are powered by gas, while lighting and the fridge run on mains electricity. A microwave and toaster are also included.
Beside Horner Water, two areas are designated for touring caravans, with some pitches offering 16-amp electrical hook-ups and television connections. The camping field is located next to the pony grazing area and extends from behind the stables to the boundary of Horner Woods.
We pride ourselves on the excellent facilities they include:
Heated toilet and shower block with baby changing and disabled facilities.
Flush Toilets - washbasins - free hot showers.
"Pot wash" room with ample hot water for dishwashing.
Laundry room with coin-operated washing machines and tumble driers. Also deep sink for hand washing.
Well stocked shop, open daily to serve your needs.
Payphone booth.
Chemical disposal points.
The farm buildings have been converted into riding stables, with the horses and ponies being a highlight for many visitors. Burrowhayes Farm Riding Stables Ltd offers escorted rides for mixed abilities through the scenic Horner Valley and across the open moorland of Dunkery, Ley Hill and Selworthy.
The farm is a walker’s paradise, where cars can be left behind. Numerous trails lead directly into the woods and out onto the moors, home to red deer and a wide variety of wildlife. Younger visitors will find plenty to enjoy too, from the excitement of pony rides to paddling in the stream and exploring the surrounding woodland.
Lynton and Lynmouth, along with the mysterious Lorna Doone Country, are just a short drive away via Porlock and its famous hill. The historic town of Dunster, with its hilltop castle, is also nearby. The area is dotted with charming Exmoor villages, complete with thatched cottages, centuries-old churches, packhorse bridges, and traditional cream teas. There are also pubs, restaurants and a cinema close at hand, with Butlins nearby for day visitors.
