    Minehead Facts – Did you know…

    1. Mr Godiva
      Minehead (from the Saxon word for hill, Myned) was owned and controlled by the Aelgar, Earl of Mercia and son of Lady Godiva (yes, that Lady Godiva!).
    2. No Biggie
      In 1086, the Domesday Book recorded a population of just 69 people.
    3. From Wales With Love
      In 1265 the town was attacked by invaders from Wales, led by William de Berkeley. Things didn’t go as they planned, the locals fought back and drove the horde back in to the sea.
    4. Mother Leakey
      In 1634 locals believed a ghost named ‘Mother Leakey’, was responsible for “whistling up” storms that sank local boats and ships. The claims were taken so seriously, the Bishop of Bath and Wells was sent to investigate.
    5. Port Life
      It was an important trading port, bringing goods from the West Indies and exporting local wines, cider and cheese from nearby Cheddar.
    6. Horseplay
      On May Day, a horse (or at least locals dressed as a horse) canters though the town collecting money from people it meets, in a tradition dating back to 1830. The money is donated to local charities.
    7. Butlins Alumni
      Sitting on the seafront, Butlins has seen many famous faces. Stephen Mulhern was a redcoat, Deborah Meaden worked there for a summer, Catherine Zeta-Jones won a talent contest as a child and Status Quo met while working there in 1967.
    8. Walkies
      Considered to be the ‘Gateway to Exmoor’, the town marks the start of the 630-mile long South West Coast Path. From Minehead, the trail skirts the coast of North Devon, around Cornwall, South Devon, ending in Poole, Dorset.

    About

    Once an important trading port, today Minehead is a well-loved holiday resort, it was. There’s a well-kept high street with many of the usual high street favourites. Locals have a choice of supermarkets and some funky independent stores. The town also boasts parks and gardens, a bowling club and a theatre.

    Leisure

    Home to one of the UK’s leading holiday resorts, there’s certainly no shortage of things to do. The town has a leisure centre, several restaurants, and miles of golden sand. The small port is still operational with pleasure craft and marine tours.

    Nearby Dunster Castle is a popular spot to visit along with the heritage railway. However, the coastline is the star of the show and the town marks the start of the South West Coast Path giving access to Exmoor.
