It was set in a beautiful farmhouse with overlooking countryside scenery. The rooms were clean, beautifully decorated and there were areas to relax and enjoy the getaway. My young daughter and my dog were there and the property catered for both. The hosts couldn’t have been more friendly and welcoming and the range of breakfast they offered was perfect.

The room was extremely clean, spacious and nicely decorated. Location was ideal for the seafront and town centre. Owner very friendly and checked in on us to see if everything was ok.

The views out every window and even the sky/roof lights were amazing! We loved everything about the cabin, the location, the kitchen, bathroom, deck, and the hosts!

The town has plenty of places to go if you're after a busy night out, but equally there are places where you can go if you want to kick back for the evening and relax.
The Heritage Railway we visited was spot on - it's a great way to see some of the other towns and villages in the local area, and a great way to get about if you want to go for a walk.

The season hadn't got going yet so it was a bit quiet. For us that's OK. Like many towns it seemed to be suffering from the economical downturn. Otherwise it seems to be a friendly place. We found the Duke of Wellington and it was friendly and lively place with reasonably priced meals and beers.
The little steam railway was delightful as was our visits to Lynmouth and Porlock and the Valley of the rocks.

Minehead town centre does have it's 'characters' most of whom frequent the Wetherspoons for obvious reasons. The quay and seafront was lovely in the evening sunshine and we found a fabulous pub called the 'Kildare Lodge Hotel'. Not at all what you would expect, a beautiful 'Arts and Crafts' building with amazing interior plus the bonus of having 3 real ales on tap (they are in the 2024 Good Beer Guide). A visit to Dunster Castle is a must plus a trip on the West Somerset Railway and a walk on Exmoor! Minehead is a good base for all these activities!

Minehead is a very traditional sort of seaside resort, which is perfect if that's what you are looking for. Based mostly around the huge Butlins site and the West Somerset Railway, there's not a great deal else to do, though the surrounding countryside is pretty special. Facilities in town are what you'd expect - some takeaways, simple restaurants, touristy type shops, etc, but it's not somewhere for hard-core shoppers.

We loved the laid back atmosphere.
We loved the laid back atmosphere. The high street was busy with a diverse variety of shops, restaurants and cafes. The Victorian town is beautiful. Lots of lovely architecture, walks and a beautiful park. Also a nice beach which was a bonus. We would recommend you investigate all the little side streets for hidden gems. Also very dog friendly.

Minehead is a good beach resort and a central starting point for exploring Somerset and particularly Exmoor as a path starts a short walk from the Hotel.
The West Somerset steam railway is the longest standard gauge heritage line at 21 miles taking a full hour each way through pretty well kept stations and is only a short walk along the front the hotel.
Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. The location was excellent. Just a few steps away from the beach, dog friendly at this time of year, the sunrises across the bay were some of the very best I have ever seen. A short walk through the park to the town. Facilities excellent, loved the swimming pool, food was also also excellent, pubs and restaurants within a short distance, although we ate at the hotel for breakfast and dinner, the dogs were spoiled rotten too. Good value for money. I would highly recommend a stay at the Northfield Hotel.
The Waverley is a short walk from the Minehead Railway Station (now home to West Somerset Railway) and bus stop. As travellers using public transport the location is excellent and it is only a short walk to shops, cafes and hotels and the harbour. The breakfast selection is excellent and well presented. Our hosts and their staff were friendly and engaging, always smiling and willing to help in any way. Our room was large enough that we were not cramped, it was clean and comfortable with a matching large ensuite.
Staff: brilliant, very helpful
Location: literally a 2 min walk from the sea front and central to amenities.
Room: it was a fab sized room for us (me, a 13 year old and a 3 year old). The room was absolutely spotless and not cramped like some hotels. I couldn't fault it. If you are visiting Minehead, and need a hotel, put this at the top of your list. The breakfasts were amazing (ask for toast and you literally get the biggest slices of bread I have ever seen). Great for kids too.
Nice location, a staff member (duty manager) sorry forgot his name, made sure he got a special fire alarm device to install in my room for my safety. It is very rare this happens so this is commended. I hope this practice is standard across the JDW hotels and the convenience of popping downstairs for evening meal and drink was just a bonus as I had a long day before arriving in Minehead
The building was fascinating and our room wonderfully spacious. Breakfast was good, and we ate there two evenings and really enjoyed. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the pair of Great Dane 'guard' dogs were a real joy. We were there to visit the West Somerset Railway and it was a real bonus having a station a short drive from the hotel.
If you like peace & quiet set in tranquil rural Somerset then this is an absolute must. Residing next to a beautiful picturesque stream & ford is a must see. The property reminds me of rural France & Italy. The Pack Horse is in a perfect location for exploring the coastline from Watchet/ Minehead to Ilfracombe in North Devon.
Probably one of the best B&B's I have ever stayed in!. The owners, Sharon & Paul were a delightful couple, very friendly and welcoming and their attention to detail would put a five star hotel to shame and the breakfast was amazing. This accommodation should be a role model for hotel training.
The hotel is lovely and very well maintained. The room was a good size and had a terrific view along the shoreline, the bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was excellent. All staff that we met were very friendly and helpful. Ease of access to the beach and town center was great.
Breakfast was amazing - delicious food, with a large number of choices where you can pick exactly what "Full English" means for you. Lovely dining room, and an amazing location opposite Blenheim Gardens. Walkable to many restaurants, pubs and the seafront.
The Beach Hotel was fantastic , so enjoyable and so relaxing. Our full English Breakfast was excellent and delicious. We found the Staff so welcoming and friendly. We would definitely come back again and tell our friends and family this is first class .
A well run hotel and pub.
Within walking distance of Exmoor tops and Dunkery Beacon.
Staff friendly and food excellent.
Covid measures excellent
Nice to know you can have a good evening meal rather than be looking around or going into Minehead
We found ourselves stranded in Minehead and was fortunate that this property was available. The host was very considerate, making sure we had fresh milk, tea, coffee and biscuits on our arrival. He was friendly and easy to talk to. Thank you.
This is a wonderful hotel in a perfect location for Minehead and Dunster. The room was comfortable and spacious, really well appointed, and finished impeccably. I had the best nights sleep I’ve had in a while here!
The hotel is well located on the main street close to the beach, preserved railway station and bus stops. The staff were helpful and welcoming. Good sized rooms, very clean.
