Located in the picturesque region of Minehead, Somerset, this newly converted barn offers a unique vacation experience, comfortably accommodating up to three guests with its two bedrooms. The property boasts outstanding views, regarded as some of the best in Exmoor, particularly from the bedrooms and common areas. Nestled within the Exmoor National Park, the barn provides a serene and private retreat, ensuring that guests can enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape without public disturbances.
The accommodation features two washrooms, including an ensuite master bedroom, enhancing the convenience for guests. Visitors have full access to roam the 116-acre farm that directly borders the national park, allowing for ample opportunities to explore the stunning scenery.

The farmhouse nearby may be occupied by the owners and their family, ensuring a personal touch while maintaining guest privacy. This setting creates a welcoming atmosphere for those looking to unwind and connect with nature.
