Minehead - The Strand with Higher Town rising up North Hill

Minehead is a thriving market town on the north coast of Somerset. It blends old-world charm
with modern amenities and has numerous restaurants, pubs, shops and places of entertainment.
The western terminus of the West Somerset Railway is near the seafront, where you can board
steam trains that will take you as far as Bishop’s Lydeard through rolling Somerset countryside.
