About

Dunster sits on the edge of Exmoor, dominated by its medieval castle and a historic yarn market on the high street. The working watermill and the priory church are central features.

Exmoor itself is an expanse of open heather moorland, deep wooded combes and grazing pastures. The landscape is defined by red deer, Exmoor ponies and the high coastline where the moor meets the Bristol Channel.
