The region
+ MoreThe Granary is situated on the outskirts of the pretty village of Luxborough. The Royal Oak Inn serves drinks and good food, approx 1 mile away. Wheddon Cross (approx 5 miles) has a newly refurbished mini-supermarket, Post Office facilities and petrol station with good opening... times. Roadwater is also has a local shop and pub which serves food. Dunster is also approx 4 miles, but in the other direction, this wonderful medieval village is really worth a visit, it has lots of shops, restaurants, tea rooms and a village shop. Minehead is the nearest town, approximately 7 miles away. Here you will find the larger supermarkets and petrol stations (Tesco and Morrisons are both situated on the outskirts of the town and have longer opening hours), most major high street banks with cash machines, plus a range of other shops throughout the town. Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose as well as Cook from Taunton will deliver.
The village pub, the Royal Oak serves good food and drink. It is one mile away and can be reached via a footpath. Shut Mondays. Further afield the Valiant Soldier in Roadwater has a comprehensive menu. Reeves in Dunster and Woods in Dulverton would be our fine dining recommendations but get quite booked up. There is a lot of choice in Dunster for lunch and tea.
Dunster castle and its gardens are worth a visit. We are close to the coast so opportunity for sea fishing, fossil hunting, walking the south west costal path or simply sitting on the beach. Nearby is Wimbleball lake offering activities such a canoeing. Minehead is the start of the West Somerset Steam railway, not to be missed. The moor is on our doorstep. A number of local companies offer safaris to see the deer, ponies etc. The area is littered with bridleways so wonderful for off road and on road cycling a well as walking and horse riding. You can bring your horse on holiday with us! We are a mere 20 mins for West Somerset and Minehead golf club. A little further to the infamous Saunton Sands and Westward Ho! courses.
There is lots of lovely walking from your doorstop. You can join the Coleridge Way at the top of the farm. The area is littered with footpaths. A local map is provided. The south west costal path is nearby. Minehead provides the best local beach for a hot day. Dunster is the nearest a mere 10 minute drive away. Kilve, a little further away is a dream for fossil hunters. Further afield are the infamous Devon beaches of Wilacombe, Ifracoombe and Sauntons Sands.
