The map provided here is based on the postcode of the venue.
Royal mail are very good at allocating postcodes to buildings
but much less good at lakes and rivers. Therefore where a
venue does not really have a postcode I have tried to find a
postcode that is as close as possible to the venue. This might
be that of a nearby hotel or even the village post office. You
should therefore always ensure you have proper directions
for the last half-mile or so to the venue.

Nearest main road:  M5 J25 / A358
Directions:  M5 leave exit at junction 25 heading towards Taunton. Take the A358 Minehead road (it twists and turns a bit) around the outskirts of Taunton. At the Cross Keys Pub there's a roundabout where you should turn right sign posted to Minehead, pass the army camp on your left-CAUTION- SPEED TRAP-40 MPH. Approximately 3 miles past the camp turn left on the B3224 marked Raleigh Cross, Wheddon Cross and Exford. This road will take you into Exmoor National Park and it's very long, but stick with it until you reach the Raleigh Cross Pub, which is on your left hand side (you can't miss it, it's a big white building). About 300 yards past the pub take a right hand fork sign posted to Wheddon Cross. In Wheddon cross, go straight over the crossroads to Exford, (be careful - it's not easy to see this junction). When you come into the village of Exford, go down the hill, over the bridge and immediately turn left towards Withypool. Stay on this road for about 1/2 mile and turn left at the first crossroads. After approximately 1 mile turn right sign posted Withypool.
