Exmoor bed and breakfast with sea views
. . . just minutes from the beach

Camelot House is a classical Edwardian home with glorious views of Exmoor and the Somerset coast. Situated in Blue Anchor Bay, just 4 miles from Minehead and even closer to Dunster, we are a stone’s throw from the sea, the West Somerset Railway and a short walk from the local shop / newsagent, beach café and two pubs.

Your hosts, Wendy and Ashley, look forward to welcoming you into their home which has been thoughtfully renovated. We have taken care to combine an informal atmosphere with a high standard of B&B accommodation in 4 individually decorated en-suite bedrooms.

For a friendly and personal booking service ring us on 01643 821118 or email stay@camelothousebandb.co.uk

Nestled on the edge of Exmoor National Park, one of the great unspoilt expanses of wildernesses in England where red deer and Exmoor ponies roam, our accommodation is also perfect for exploring the Quantocks and Brendon Hills or for visiting the Victorian seaside resort of Minehead, the medieval village of Dunster and its towering Castle or Watchet’s ancient port.

Keen walkers will find an extensive network of waymarked paths with the coast path running through Blue Anchor Bay.

An enviable Somerset location for exploring Exmoor, taking
a steam train on The West Somerset Railway or

relaxing on the beach
