Selworthy

Selworthy (pop 518) is a village famed for its thatched cottages, mostly in National Trust ownership but privately tenanted. The beautiful whitewashed church overlooks a green where there is a National Trust shop, toilets and a tea shop. There are miles of walks on the wooded hillside behind, with superb views across the Vale of Porlock and along the coast from Selworthy Beacon, where there is an all abilities trail.
