Astro spots in Exmoor/Somerset and nearby?

[a6400]

Hi,

I feel like the Bortle 4 still isn't enough so I'm looking for Bortle 3 at least, and they have some nice spots in Exmoor.

I know about Wimbeball lake but I don't really like it as you can't park overnight, unless you probably pay on the camp site, also a lot of trees etc.

I have found this spot on Ridge Road, seems like a good spot, anyone been there? (seems like the darkest, perfect clean horizon).

Also found:

1. "Frogwell Lodge Car Park" but it says temporarily closed on Google Maps.

2. Dunkery Beacon - Parking: https://imgur.com/a/Y0tdEGb

3. Deerleap view point (Somerset, Bortle 4, some trees): https://imgur.com/a/JoxwpxD

Perhaps someone is even interested in meeting up in any of these places to do some astro together?

 

Thanks!,

Pawel

There's Haddon Hill, which is at the southern end of wimbleball reservoir, it's best approach is from Bampton.
