  • at the roundabout take the 1st exit and stay on A396 following the river Exe for 5 miles
  • look out for a right turn to Dulverton (still A396) as the road bends and then immediately take the lower road to Minehead and Dulverton
  • continue along the A396 for about 3 miles
  • turn left at the white Toll House to Dulverton B3222
  • stay on B3222 for another 3 miles to Dulverton
  • cross the bridge and follow the road through the town
  • follow Lady Road (left after the Co-op) which becomes Northmoor Road and stop just before the first garage
  • if you can, park just behind the patio opposite Trout Cottage otherwise there should be spaces opposite the bakery a little further along

There is a turning point a bit further along the road when you want to go back the other way.
