Dunkery Beacon is the highest point on Exmoor and in Somerset.

It is also the highest point in southern England outside of Dartmoor.

The sandstone hill rises to 1,705 feet and provides views over the surrounding moorland, the Bristol Channel, South Wales and hills up to 86 miles away.

We are nine miles from both the coastal resort of Minehead and the town of Dulverton.
We are also close to the picturesque villages of Dunster, Porlock and Exford.

What is so special about our village?
Well, it is a thriving rural village with a good community spirit. We are lucky to have a church, school, post office, garage, hotel/pub, hairdressers, and many other small businesses.

We are a popular place for tourists to stay and discover Exmoor. We have an all weather court which is available for many sports including tennis, netball, basketball and junior sports.
Over the next few pages we hope to give you an insight into our village.

But first things first. For those unsure about the location of Exmoor, the map below shows where we are
in relation to the rest of the UK.
