Christmas in Lynton

5 Day Itinerary

• Day 1:

  Local departure by coach, then on to Lynton and our hotel for four nights. We enjoy a mulled wine with a mince pie on arrival to get us into the Christmas spirit.

  Included meals: Dinner

• Day 2: Christmas Eve in Dunster and Minehead

  Today we visit the quaint village of Dunster, set between the foothills of Exmoor National Park and the Somerset coast. It is considered by many as the most intact medieval village in England and is dominated by Dunster Castle. Explore at your leisure, perhap visiting the iconic Yarn Market, the remains of a Benedictine priory, or the working Watermill. We then continue to Minehead, with its pretty harbour and picturesque town centre.

• Day 3: Christmas Day at leisure or Barnstaple

  Merry Christmas! Relax in Lynton, open some presents, tuck into a traditional turkey dinner, or join our optional excursion to Barnstaple. As the largest town in North Devon, Barnstaple has a lot to offer. This thriving market town is home to a traditional Pannier Market, which has remained largely unchanged for over 150 years and has a variety of stalls from local produce, to art, crafts, prints, fashion and more – perfect to do a little festive shopping! Stroll through Barnstaple’s partly pedestrianised centre and admire its history and architecture, such as the ornate Queen Anne’s Walk or the 13th century Long Bridge, or why not visit the Museum of North Devon?

  Included meals: Breakfast, Dinner
