Take a trip back to an 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.
Not just a cider farm, oh no, there's aminals to stroke (piglets and sheep) plus an array of ducks and hens. The kids play area has Trevor the Tractor along side more conventional aparatus and then there's the tea room, a great place for a break. Before you leave call into the farm shop with a wide variety of local produce and, of course, cider.
Outside you'll see monkeys, meerkats, wallabies and emus… inside are the scary snakes and spiders. If you really, really want to, you can touch them.
