About Periton

Periton emerges where the coastal lowlands surrender to the rising shadows of the high moor. It lies 0.7 miles west-south-west of Minehead (from Minehead: bearing 244°T, OS grid SS 958 457). The landscape here breathes with the salt-tinged air of the Bristol Channel, yet Periton maintains a distinct character held firmly within the protective boundaries of Exmoor National Park. To the south, the deep, verdant cleft of Periton Combe draws the eye upward toward the rugged spine of the hills. Ancient tracks trace the contours of the earth, leading walkers away from the hum of the nearby coast and into the quiet solitude of the bracken. The light in this corner of Somerset possesses a soft, translucent quality, catching the slate roofs and stone walls as the sun dips behind the ridge of Little Hill. Periton remains a place where the transition from the manicured gardens of the coast to the wild, unkempt beauty of the heights is marked by every changing gust of wind.
