This is the view you get as you approach, and I just think it's such a beautiful sight, rising up out of the trees. There's an ancient castle, plus a more modern (as in 17th century modern) Manor House. The last residents gave it to the National Trust to look after. Dunster Village is also very pretty and worth a little wander through.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/4363/6afa3bde-f56f-430f-aa29-315d4067192e.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Dunster Castle 7 min drive \- 3.6 miles - Minehead Beach 5 min walk \- 0.3 miles - Blenheim Gardens 6 min walk \- 0.4 miles - West Somerset Railway 9 min walk \- 0.5 miles ### Getting around - Minehead Station 14 min walk - Cardiff International Airport (CWL) 175 min drive ### Restaurants - McDonald's 20 min walk - The Duke of Wellington (Wetherspoon) 11 min walk - Kiss Coffee 11 min walk - Hotshots Sports Bar 4 min drive - Pancake Stand 5 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Porthole Cottage pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at Porthole Cottage? ### What time is check-in at Porthole Cottage? ### What time is check-out at Porthole Cottage? ### Where is Porthole Cottage located? ## Have a question?
