A great place to start your South West Coast Path challenge, the beautiful medieval village of Dunster is walking distance to the start of the trail at Minehead. But first, you must make time to explore deliciously unspoilt Dunster.

Discover the 10,000 year old history of Dunster at the great museum or just wander the pretty streets to soak up the atmosphere of this oh so photogenic little town. We’d love to see how you capture it, send us your pics or tag .

We’ve got a great guide to Dunster to make sure you don’t miss any of the very best bits >> https://www.visit-exmoor.co.uk/our-towns/dunster

The Somerset & Exmoor Coast Festival is a new autumn festival taking place from 23rd September to 1st October 2023. 🥾🥾

The Festival spans the entire Somerset coast from Brean to Porlock Weir with a host of walks, celebrations and events with the opportunity for the fittest to walk the entire coast of Somerset in an "80 miles in eight days" challenge on the King Charles III England Coast Path and the South West Coast Path National Trails.

To whet your appetite this is Allerford, and one of the village's main attractions is the much-photographed packhorse bridge. Built as a crossing over the River Aller (from which the village gets its name) and it is thought to be medieval in origin.
