- MINEHEAD | A full seaside holiday town tour from Minehead Town Centre to the Railway Station and Butlins Minehead on the seafront. We'll take a look at the beach and amusement arcades as well as the hotels, shops, bars and restaurants.
Minehead, a delightful seaside town nestled on the shores of the Bristol Channel, offers a quintessential English escape. This vibrant town caters to a variety of interests, whether you crave adventure on the Exmoor moorland, relaxation on the sandy beach, or a glimpse into the town's rich history.
For the active adventurer, Minehead serves as the gateway to Exmoor National Park. Hike or bike along scenic trails, marvel at cascading waterfalls, and spot Exmoor ponies grazing freely in the lush green meadows. Keen equestrians can even embark on a horseback riding adventure across the open moorland.
If relaxation is your priority, Minehead's golden beach beckons. Stretch out on the soft sand and soak up the sunshine, or take a refreshing dip in the calm waters. Families can build sandcastles, try their hand at paddleboarding or kayaking, or explore the rock pools teeming with marine life.
History buffs will find themselves captivated by Minehead's past. Explore Dunster Castle, a magnificent structure that has transformed from a Norman fortress to a Victorian country house. The castle, now managed by the National Trust, offers a glimpse into the lives of the Luttrell family who called it home for over 600 years.
Back in Minehead, wander along the charming streets lined with independent shops and cafes. The West Somerset Railway, a heritage railway, offers a nostalgic journey on a steam train, chugging through idyllic countryside. Channel Adventure provides opportunities for water sports enthusiasts to kayak, sail, or take a thrilling coasteering adventure.
Minehead caters to all tastes. Whether you seek adventure on Exmoor, relaxation on the beach, or a journey through time, this charming seaside town guarantees an unforgettable experience.

Thank you
Have a top week!
Thank you for showing me dear old Minehead. I worked at Butlins in the summer of '75. Great memories. Sad to see the Lido replaced by flats.
We took our son and his friend to Butlins here about 30 years ago. Visited Minehead for the day a couple of years ago and loved it. It’s got a nice vibe and it feels like a proper seaside town. Nice to see it again.
I feel lucky to live here . Love that we are surrounded by hills and the sea
I was in Minehead yesterday 20/7. The WSR where celebrating there 150th anniversary. The weather wasn’t so good, as it is on your clip.
I fell lucky on my trip for sure
Another great video why do they always put the seats so low people like me who are bad arthritis in my knees very painful to get up from those type of seats
Thank you. Enjoyed this. My Mother and I came here with my young son 40 years ago. So lovely to remember.
ANOTHER, GOOD VIDEO. My Dad's home town. Boy has it changed since I went there in the 1950's😀 HOW about Watchet? Used to drop a net down the sea wall to catch Crabs and Shrimps.🙂 Dad had a small sailing boat and my Watts family had a shop. Needless to say, Dad joined the Royal Navy in 1939.
I wonder 🤔 if that's Gimbal Walks TV? 🙂 I'd definitely come over and say hello and thank you for making my life better Neil 👍 Minehead looks really nice. Lots to see and do. Great beach etc. I've been told it's better than Weston Super Mere but 🤷
Recommend the pub in the harbour THE OLD SHIP AGROUND
My husband and I were only there last week. Having stayed in a beach chalet at Dunster. We like Minehead, because there are enough people about to give it an atmosphere but it isn't too busy.
Do you have plans on visiting Ireland and Northern Ireland? I'd love to see their most famous cities and the most beautiful places too! 😍 Greetings! 🌻💝
Visited Minehead for the day today absolutely beautiful and the Somerset countryside had a peaceful walk from the beach to the harbour had a look at all the boats and paddled twice had fish and chips on the seafront I recommend you try Dana's there it's the fantastic and the batter was tasty and crunchy definitely the best seaside in Somerset
It was amazing to bump into you and actually meet the man behind the camera three times no less …
Likewise!
Was really great to see you!
Stayed at Stones a few times love the area and looking for he metalheads around town
Can any Minehead locals tell me what the white buildings in South Wales you can see across the channel? I'm guessing it's Cardiff Bay.
@@markcollinson5665 you can see Cardiff Airport over there.
Nice to see roy chubby Brown lookalike on the motorised scooter at the start 😂, you could have gone on a butlins 80s weekender😂
🤣🤣🤣

Ha ha you were round every corner! 🤣
Thank you for this lovely tour around Minehead. It has bought back such a lot of good memories for me when I worked at Butlins in my youth. I had a good five months there, and it’s good to see it again and to see not a lot has changed. Thanks it’s nice to go down memory lane😊
The railway is great fun and the kids love it. I'd recommend a ride up the line and back
Looks great thank-you 🌹
Thanks for watching!
You didn't mention the cinema
