The region
Minehead sits on the edge of Exmoor National Park and, if walking is your passion, there is no better place to be. Not only do you have Exmoor stretching out before you with its magnificent views, wildlife and cosy pubs, the town is also the starting point of the Southwest National Trail, the longest distance countryside trail we have. It's also the terminus for West Somerset Railway, the longest heritage railway in Britain.

Exmoor is often referred to as England's best kept secret, it's a wonderful holiday destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long expeditions across the moors or horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets.

Excellent home from home in a great location
Lovely well equipped, spotless property. Thoroughly enjoyed the welcome basket, as did our dog. Great location, with a 5 minute downhill walk to the High Street. Very peaceful and loved being able to hear the stream (on the outside of the enclosed garden). Very helpful owner who should be rightly proud of the property.

This is a superb property which easily took 6 adults for a long weekend. Very thoughtful goodies supplied for our arrival including a lovely cream tea, jam on top of course! It is convenient for both the town and sea front and plenty of parking for 2/3 cars. Totally recommended.

This is one of the best properties we have stayed in. It was clean, bright, spacious and airy , and very well equiped. It was in a lovely quiet location, although, if walking into the centre of town or to the seafront you need to be fit, as it is on a steep hill. We would certainly stay here again.

A great modern cottage with all you need for a comfortable stay. The location is a nice mix of being into the old town side of Minehead without being too far away from the sea front and local attractions. Off road parking a real bonus in this area. The hill is steep but still a nice amble down and back for a coffee and a paper. The log burner and cosy front room would be lovely and snug in the cooler months.

This a lovely location the walk down into town is easy, but be prepared to walk back up the hill. This gets the blood pumping but allows you to eat your cream tea guilt free. The owner of the house was very friendly and helpful with local knowledge and history of the property. Really think that we will be booking another break here.
