For the Love of the British Isles: MINEHEAD & THE WEST SOMERSET RAILWAY

I must say, Minehead is not one of my favourite places. The seafront is somewhat shabby and run down, and dominated by the huge Butlin's Holiday Camp at one end of the seafront. I'm not one for the usual sort of seaside town anyway.
However, what it does have, is the terminus for the wonderful West Somerset Heritage Railway.
This is the longest heritage steam and diesel railway in the country, at a little over 20 miles long. It winds its' way through beautiful countryside, stopping at several little villages, until it reached Bishops Lydeard.

It's well worth taking a trip and just relaxing and admiring the views.

For the Love of the British Isles

The one thing I love, is riding my motorcycles around the beautiful British Isles. This is a collection of some of the places I've been, and seen.

These small islands are an entire library of different geographies, history back to the dawn of time, and some of the most beautiful places in the world.

The pages are split into counties and two or three of the largest cities, and will be updated by me, whenever I come back from my travels.

Please take the time to explore them, as I myself explore the real thing. Oh, and don't imagine all of the posts will be about well-known places. I like the unusual and the obscure.

I hope you enjoy them!
