ABOUT THE NEIGHBOURHOOD: Dunster Studio Apartment is located on Dunster's beautiful High Street, right next to the iconic Yarn Market and a 3 minute walk from the Dunster Castle entrance gates. There are several restaurants, tea rooms and independent shops within a 1-5 minute walk. Dunster is surrounded by Exmoor National Park which boasts over 1000 kilometres of paths ideal for walking, cycling and horse back riding - many of which start from Dunster village. 2.5 km from the village lies the Dunster beach where you can launch your kayak or paddle board and have a paddle to Minehead (remember to check the tides) - or follow the seaside path to Blue Anchor for an easy stroll and an afternoon tea. The woods around Dunster have several nice walks, including the wooded trail that takes you to Nutcombe Bottom where you find England's tallest trees. Dunster village is considered to be one of the best preserved medieval villages in the UK but there are plenty of other beautiful villages and areas to discover on Exmoor as well: Porlock Weir, Luccombe, Allerford, Selworthy, Bossington, Lynmouth, Valley of the Rocks, Dulverton, Withypool, Exford - just to name a few. We have included several travel guides in the apartment and are more than happy to help you make most of your stay in Dunster and Exmoor National Park.
