Situated about a 20-minute walk from the Minehead Seafront, the 3-star Northfield Hotel Minehead offers meeting rooms with a range of business amenities. This lovely hotel is located within easy reach of Blenheim Gardens and welcomes its guests to use a shared lounge and a golf course or to enjoy British cuisine in the onsite à la carte restaurant.

Location

The hotel is 3.9 km from the restored 18th-century National Trust Working Watermill and only 1.3 km from Minehead & West Somerset Golf Club. The Northfield Minehead is notable for its stunning location a few steps from St Peter-on-the-Quay Church.

Also, Alcombe Common is situated 17 minutes' walk away. Guests can easily get in touch with the history of Minehead by visiting the hued Dunster Castle, located 3.8 km from the accommodation.

Northfield Hotel is near a boat dock and within a few blocks of Minehead train station.

Rooms

Providing a separate toilet, some bathrooms come with a hairdryer and bathrobes.

Eat & Drink

Oak, an onsite restaurant, is open for dinner. Guests are welcome to the lounge bar to relax with a drink. You can visit a restaurant situated close by and taste British cuisine.

Leisure & Business

The perfect Northfield features a heated swimming pool with a hot tub, as well as a fitness room.

“What strikes me most is the tranquility, despite its nearness to the town and beach. The gardens, originally designed by Gertrude Jekyll, offer a peaceful retreat, and the indoor pool provides year-round relaxation. It seems a particularly good choice for families or anyone seeking a restful coastal break with a touch of history.”

Good Stay Near the Sea

sea frontbeautiful gardenon site parkingexpensive charge
The hotel is located close to town and the sea front. Gardens are beautiful. On site parking was an added bonus. The staff was very friendly.
I think the charge for dogs was expensive. I don't know where this money goes. The dogs do not get anything for breakfast unless you ask.

The hotel has a lovely garden space with lots of sitting areas. There is a garden gate. This gate comes out near the sea, allowing a short walk along the prom to the Heritage railway. I enjoyed the swim.
