12 miles from Minehead, Exmoor House

Reference: 0078

An award winning guest house set in the heart of Exmoor’s highest village. Formerly a tailor’s shop, the house is full of character with original wood panelling giving rooms that cosy, homely feel. The guests’ sitting room (once the village reading room) has an honesty bar and cosy log fire. No blaring TVs here; instead you will find an interesting selection of books, magazines and a collection of board games plus plenty of maps and guide books for planning the following day’s expedition. Ideal for walking, cycling (drying room available) and exploring all that Exmoor has to offer. Picnic lunches can be arranged. Dinner, B&B packages are a speciality. Credit cards accepted.

Directions

If coming from the M4/M5, leave the M5 at junction 25 and head towards Minehead on the A358, passing through the outskirts of Taunton. After passing the Cedar Falls health farm, turn left under the railway bridge onto the B3224 signposted to Wheddon Cross and Raleghs Cross and follow this for about 14 miles, bearing right at the Brendon Hill Methodist Church to remain on the B3224. If coming from the south or west, pick up the A396 at Tiverton and follow it up the valley (mind the pheasants!) all the way to Wheddon Cross.
