If
you just want to unwind on the beach we've got plenty for you
to lie on.
If you're looking for the peace and quiet of a country walk
or ride we can offer you the Brendon Hills, The Quantocks and
the stunning scenery of Exmoor National Park - from secret wooded
glades to the remarkable Valley of Rocks.
Watchet CarnivalIf you want something a bit more lively we can
give you a ride on a steam train on the West Somerset Railway,
a visit to a funfair or an animal park or - if you time it right
- you can join in the fun, frivolity and general chaos of one
of the local carnivals. West Somerset is, after all, the home
of carnival.
Plenty
to do and see when on Holiday in Watchet, Somerset.
Or then
again perhaps you just want to immerse yourself in an area steeped
in history. Visit the tiny church where Blackmore set Lorna
Doone's wedding or the house where Sir Walter Raleigh lived.
There's the magnificent Dunster Castle or Samuel Taylor Coleridge's
house where he wrote The Ryme of the Ancient Mariner - said
to have been inspired by Watchet Harbour.
Whatever you want, a West Somerset holiday can give it to you
- there just can't be a better place to visit...
...and there can't be a much better place to stay than Highbank,
your home away from home on the West Somerset Coast.
