Park Street, Minehead, Somerset, TA24

LOCATION
Situated on the main approach road from Exmoor into Minehead, this business property enjoys a prime location within easy, level walking distance of the town’s shops and amenities—ideal for attracting passing trade. Minehead, often referred to as the northern gateway to Exmoor National Park, is a charming coastal resort overlooking the Bristol Channel, complete with its own harbour and sandy beach.
The town has a resident population of approximately 12,000, which significantly increases during the tourist season, particularly due to the nearby Butlins resort. Minehead offers a diverse range of independent shops and businesses, alongside major supermarkets including Morrisons, Lidl, and Tesco.
As the starting point of the South West Coast Path—England’s longest waymarked footpath and a designated National Trail stretching 630 miles—Minehead attracts walkers and nature enthusiasts year-round. Other notable attractions include the heritage Steam Railway Station and the beautifully maintained Blenheim Gardens. The town’s main shopping street, The Avenue, draws visitors down towards the seafront, enhancing footfall for local businesses.
