Here at The Exmoor White Horse Inn we often have people staying who take advantage of our Somerset Weekend Breaks so they can attend the special weekends at the West Somerset Railway.
Our Railway, a true country branch line of the old Great Western Railway is full of fascination whether you are looking for a nostalgic ride back in time through lovely countryside or to study the railway and industrial heritage which our line preserves. The historic steam locomotives, coaches and wagons, and the buildings of our ten unique stations linked by a twenty mile scenic journey will repay hours of exploration. The surrounding countryside is as varied as it is beautiful. The gently rolling Quantock hills and distant Exmoor, unspoilt villages and farms nestling in leafy lanes, the cliffs and coast of the Bristol Channel with views of distant South-Wales, confident Church Towers, Dunsters imposing Castle and Mineheads seaside charm are all waiting to be discovered.
Each station along the line has something different to offer and to find out more please click on the Station name on the menu opposite to find out more…..
There are toilets on each train. Disabled persons accessible toilets are available at Bishops Lydeard, Crowcombe Heathfield, Stogumber Watchet and Minehead stations.
