The Holiday Home: About Vikings Escape
Stylish 2-Bedroom Coastal Retreat with Hot Tub and Stunning Views over Minehead
Discover Vikings Retreat, a beautifully presented hideaway perched above the seaside town of Minehead in Somerset. With spectacular views over the town’s rooftops, this contemporary two-bedroom home offers a serene escape close to Exmoor National Park.
Perfect for couples or families with older children (please note: not suitable for children under 12 due to steps and raised decking, though non-crawling babies are welcome), this high-end property has been thoughtfully renovated to blend luxury with comfort. The full length private terrace truly has the wow factor and is a stunning spot for morning coffees, sunset drinks, or simply soaking up the tranquil scenery.
