The region Wheddon Cross is often called the 'crossroads of Exmoor' -- a friendly village at the junction of the B3224 and B3358, right in the heart of the National Park. Standing at around 300 metres above sea level, Wheddon Cross is the highest village on Exmoor. It sits in the parish of Cutcombe, with the ancient parish church of St Andrew just a short walk away in the neighbouring hamlet. The village grew up around its important crossroads, where travellers on the old coaching routes between Dulverton, Minehead and Simonsbath would stop to rest. #### Village Amenities The Rest and Be Thankful Inn stands at the centre of the village -- a 19th-century coaching inn serving food, local ales and accommodation. Wheddon Cross also has a well-stocked village shop with post office services, a petrol station with ATM, free public toilets, a children's play park, and an active village hall hosting regular community events. #### Nearby Towns **Minehead** (8 miles) -- The main town of West Somerset, with larger supermarkets (Tesco, Morrisons, Lidl), high street banks, a sandy beach, and the terminus of the West Somerset Railway. **Dunster** (7 miles) -- One of England's best-preserved medieval villages, dominated by its castle and famous yarn market. Excellent independent shops and places to eat. **Dulverton** (10 miles) -- Known as the southern gateway to Exmoor, with a National Park Visitor Centre, independent shops, a butcher, and several pubs and restaurants along the River Barle. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Kitchen - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - DVD player - TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Dryer - Laundry facilities ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![View from property](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/70000/65900/65879/01e1c717.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Delta Hotels by Marriott St. Pierre Country Club Chepstow - Pool - Hot tub - Spa - Pet-friendly 8.2 Very good 1,000 reviews £79 includes taxes & fees 22 Mar - 23 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-22&endDate=2026-03-23&selected=65879&PinnedHotelID=65879&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Miscellaneous](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32930000/32927800/32927713/2542c68b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tacker Street Cottage Roadwater, near Minehead - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space - Barbecue grill 7.8 Good 9 reviews £173 includes taxes & fees 18 Apr - 19 Apr [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-18&endDate=2026-04-19&selected=32927713&PinnedHotelID=32927713&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95680000/95675600/95675552/c662bc47.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Exmoor bed and breakfast on the Two Moors Way walking route Minehead - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Free Wi-Fi - Parking available £139 includes taxes & fees 21 Mar - 22 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-21&endDate=2026-03-22&selected=95675552&PinnedHotelID=95675552&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, stereo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88130000/88122900/88122838/fde301e6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Barn at Foxholes Farm in Peaceful Rural Devon Cullomtpon - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-03&endDate=2026-04-04&selected=88122838&PinnedHotelID=88122838&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111630000/111626100/111626072/55cd0712.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Backwoods Annexe Tranquil Escape on the Edge of Minehead Minehead - Washing machine - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-03&endDate=2026-04-04&selected=111626072&PinnedHotelID=111626072&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95910000/95903700/95903634/15aaec0c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Pony Stalls, Brompton Regis Nr Dulverton - Washing machine - Dryer - Outdoor space - Parking available 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-03&endDate=2026-04-04&selected=95903634&PinnedHotelID=95903634&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91150000/91145300/91145253/ee6fe745.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Stables at Birch Cleave Barns Simonsbath - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-03&endDate=2026-04-04&selected=91145253&PinnedHotelID=91145253&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Microwave, oven, dishwasher, high chair](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/84000000/83290000/83286200/83286195/372ab1bf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pebble Cottage, Dunster Minehead - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-03&endDate=2026-04-04&selected=83286195&PinnedHotelID=83286195&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96770000/96766500/96766495/70888034.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Funky Pigsty-An adventure pet friendly paradise, Situated in the Wye Valley!
