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: Internet access ### Kitchen - Microwave - Oven ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden ### Laundry - Dryer - Laundry facilities ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### 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 ## Similar properties ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/124000000/123920000/123917900/123917846/ea6707c0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 2 Bed in Allerford (oc-r29129) Allerford - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Parking available - Barbecue grill [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=123917846&PinnedHotelID=123917846&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor spa tub](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96870000/96868800/96868744/9260416b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Victoria Hut near Allerford Allerford - Hot tub - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=96868744&PinnedHotelID=96868744&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82960000/82959600/82959505/973eae38.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 1 bedroom accommodation in Wheddon Cross, Exmoor Wheddon Cross, Exmoor - Pool - Free WiFi - Parking available - Kitchen [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=82959505&PinnedHotelID=82959505&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/99000000/98510000/98504300/98504298/0534c254.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bramley Hut near Allerford Allerford - Hot tub - Pet friendly - Parking available - Barbecue grill [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=98504298&PinnedHotelID=98504298&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99400000/99395600/99395503/e3038f62.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stable Cottage near Wheddon Cross Minehead - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=99395503&PinnedHotelID=99395503&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82970000/82962700/82962668/3f76627c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Orchard Cottage-B5811 Wheddon Cross, Exmoor - Pool - Free WiFi - Parking available - Kitchen [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=82962668&PinnedHotelID=82962668&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99400000/99395600/99395501/3aa42cd0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Rose Cottage near Wheddon Cross Minehead - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=99395501&PinnedHotelID=99395501&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96240000/96232900/96232840/1c53e499.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Old Laundry, Exford Exford - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space 9.0 Wonderful 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=96232840&PinnedHotelID=96232840&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, fireplace, DVD player](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/22000000/22000000/21997300/21997248/66a9de5f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Shippon, near Wheddon Cross Wheddon Cross - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Outdoor Space - Parking available 9.8 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-05&endDate=2026-04-06&selected=21997248&PinnedHotelID=21997248&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82970000/82963100/82963004/fde07cc3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Nestled in the side of the valley with a indoor heated pool and 5-acre gardens.
