Burnells Gardens

Burnells Gardens is a family run farm situated in the beautiful Avill Valley between the historic village of Dunster & the traditional village of Timberscombe. It is a perfect base for your stay on Exmoor with wild moorland & valleys only a short drive away - as is the town of Minehead and it's beaches and the village of Dunster - packed with history and interest. Minehead and Dunster offer numerous attractions from shopping, golf, steam railway etc. and horse-riding and walking will allow you to experience the tranquility of this lovely area at first-hand.

The farm is river fronted - we can supply a Chiminea for use in the farm's mature gardens or a gas bbq and picnic area on the banks of the river where you may glimpse the resident otters or kingfishers as you dine. You are free to roam the farm and meet Flora & Marge the Goats or the other animals that make up the character of Burnells Gardens! You may even meet the hen who laid the egg you have for your breakfast! Well-behaved dogs are welcome and you can even bring your horse on holiday with you. Sorry but we can't cater for children under 7.

Stabling/grazing can be arranged for y and multiple dogs are no problem with many facilities set up especially for your canine family - treats for them on arrival, a supply of disposal bags, towels and throws for your use, plus a dedicated area for "first-thing in the morning and last-thing at night" toilet breaks. We supply temporary dog i/d discs so there is a local tel. no. for people to use if your dog should accidentally go astray. We also have a dog agility course for the days when you are feeling a little more lively. There are very few rules at Burnells Gardens and our aim is to provide you with a tailor-made break free of restrictions to enhance the quality of your holiday, however short or long this may be.
