Minehead serves as the northern terminus of the West Somerset Railway, the longest heritage railway in England. The town maintains its historic character through its old harbour quarter, while also serving as a gateway to Exmoor National Park. Its cultural heritage is reflected in various local traditions, including the annual Minehead and Exmoor Festival, which celebrates classical music and the arts.
