Porlock Somerset Landing site/s

Hi all,

Looked through Griffin sites, BHAB etc and there seems to be a shortage of landing sites around Porlock Somerset.

Could anyone make any suggestions

Thanks

I have landed at the Porlock vale house hotel a few times. Lovely place to stay. Easy approach from the sea, [avoid the horses]. Sorry, don't have the phone no.

That's the place and that's the approach, land on the other side of the fence you can see on the photo.

HLS Minehead/Porlock/Watchet area

The hotel above (not unreasonably) would prefer not to have helicopter movements that are not bringing in guests.
I'm looking for a site (suitable for a single) to land at next weekend in the Minehead/Porlock/Watchet area.
Does anyone have any contacts? Maybe a friendly farmer with a fallow field, relative with a large paddock?
I don't want to pay a huge landing fee (who does?). A few bottles of wine might compensate for the inconvenience.
