Perched up on the hill above Minehead, the view across the town and to the coastline is stunning. The spacious terrace runs the length of the property, a garden dining set is provided under a pergola, and there are other comfortable chairs, so you can relax and enjoy the outlook. The hot tub is located on the corner to the side of the property, and the terrace continues around the far end of the building. There is an outside heated shower for use with the hot tub. To the rear is a paved courtyard with washing line, also accessed via the utility room. The terrace has glass panelling around the perimeter but it is not entirely enclosed, therefore children must be supervised. The drive runs below the property and is steep at the bottom where it meets the road. There is an electric gate across the drive which can be opened by pressing a button on the outside on arrival, but there will be a key fob for use during your stay, allowing you to open the gate from your car. The drive is shared with the owners, who live next door, they will leave you to your own devices but will be on-hand should you require any assistance during your stay. From the property it's a short walk into the town (5-10 minutes), where you will find a good selection of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms, cafes and shops.

The region
+ MoreMinehead is a lovely seaside town that also sits on the edge of Exmoor National Park. If walking is your passion, there is no better place to be. Not only do you have Exmoor stretching out before you with its magnificent views, wildlife and cosy pubs, the town is also the startin...g point of the South West Coastal Path, the UKs longest distance countryside trail. It's also the terminus for West Somerset Steam Railway, the longest heritage railway in Britain. Exmoor is often referred to as England's best kept secret, it's a wonderful holiday destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long expeditions across the moors or horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets. There are some beautiful walks on North hill, right on the doorstep of Vikings Annexe.
There will be a brochure in Vikings Annexe with suggestions of local places to eat and drink, many within walking distance.
There is so much to do in this area, walking, swimming, surfing, sailing, horse riding, cycling, fishing or just sit on the decking enjoying the tranquility of the countryside. A perfect place to relax, read a book, sketch, or write. Or maybe take a trip to Dunster, Watchet, Porlock Weir, Bossington, or Lynton and Lynmouth, only a short distance away. There are farmers markets, craft markets and gift shops for those who like to shop.
Exmoor is a wonderful place to walk and explore, we are only 2 minutes away from the coastal path. Minehead has a sandy beach, and is a popular place for swimmers all year round. Dunster also has a beautiful beach. Or if you prefer less sand, Porlock and Bossington have pebbled beaches.
