It is the terminus of the West Somerset Steam Railway and the Exmoor Coaster, an open top bus, runs to Lynmouth/Lynton and on to Ilfracombe in the summer. The South West Coast Path starts in the town and there are numerous walks over North Hill from the cottage door. Dunster Castle (National Trust) is within a couple of miles.
