How to get there
From M5, leave at Junction 24, sign posted Minehead. Take A39, following signs to Minehead for approx. 24 miles. You will reach a roundabout about 2 miles after you have passed the traffic lights at Dunster village. Take the second exit, i.e. go straight across this roundabout and head into Minehead. As you enter the town on Friday Street, you’ll come to a sharp left where Wetherspoons will be on your left and Webbers estate agent on your right, and a Costa Coffee ahead of you. You want to take the road adjacent to Costa, Holloway Street, which is right at the island, then immediately left. Follow this road to the top of the hill, then turn left and then right into Church St. Drive up this steep road, and you willl see Pilgrim Corner, our large white thatched cottage in front of you, to its left is The Old Sweet Shop. Pull into the driveway next to the house. You can park two cars around the cottage. Lucy will email you the information on how to do this as the driveway is shared with guests staying at neighbouring cottage, Stone Barn.
