Dunster

Dunster

Set between the foothills of Exmoor National Park and the Somerset coast, Dunster is probably the largest and most intact medieval village in England. We are a national treasure!

Dominated by Dunster Castle, Dunster has a wealth of history to discover, including the iconic Yarn Market, the remains of a Benedictine priory, a Working Watermill, Packhorse Bridge and Iron Age settlements. It has such a fascinating history, Time Team Dig Village chose it as its first village to investigate!

Dunster is a very special and unique place. From the village you can take a number of stunning walks into the Exmoor hills and it makes a great base to explore the rest of Exmoor and Devon.
