Places To Visit near Minehead  | Minehead is in the heart of the area known as the Somerset Riviera, a string of resorts that perfectly sum up the traditional English seaside. The classic seafront area has everything you want from a coastal town – benches from which to savour the view, palm trees, extravagant floral displays and plenty of green spaces. Children are in heaven here with a beach made for bucket and spade action, and with Exmoor just a short hop away, there is plenty of opportunity to explore the great outdoors. |

West Somerset Railway
Take a trip back to the gentile era of steam and soak up the atmosphere of bygone days. Twenty miles of track wends its way through the Somerset scenery from Bishops Lydeard, northwards below the Quantock Hills to the coast at Watchet and Blue Anchor, arriving at the end of the line at the seaside holiday town of Minehead. Stop off along the way to explore one of the restored stations, or just sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.
