Minehead Without is a small, predominantly rural civil parish on the edge of Minehead in Somerset, England. It occupies low-lying farmland and hedged pastures that rise towards the moorland fringe, sitting close to Exmoor and within easy reach of the Bristol Channel, so the area is valued for its scenic views and access to coastal and upland walking routes.
The parish has a long agricultural history reflected in scattered stone farms and field patterns, but today its economy mixes farming with tourism, holiday lets and commuting into the nearby town; visitors are drawn by the combination of seaside amenity in Minehead and the outdoor recreation on Exmoor. Socially it remains low-density and quiet, with a small community whose rhythms are shaped by rural life and the seasonal influx of walkers and holidaymakers.
