Dunster Castle is a former motte and bailey castle, now a country house, in the village of Dunster, Somerset, England. The castle lies on the top of a steep hill called the Tor, and has been fortified since the late Anglo-Saxon period. After the Norman conquest of England in the 11th century, William de Mohun constructed a timber castle on the site as part of the pacification of Somerset. A stone shell keep was built on the motte by the start of the 12th century, and the castle survived a siege during the early years of the Anarchy. At the end of the 14th century the de Mohuns sold the castle to the Luttrell family, who continued to occupy the property until the late 20th century.

Dunster, Somerset - Video of Dunster Castle and Dunster Village
Dunster in Somerset is a small village near Minehead on the north Somerset coast.
Dunster is a good holiday destination for a day visit. Dunster Castle is sited on a wooded hill and you can trace more than 1,000 years of history here. The castle evolved from a Saxon stronghold into a country house that was home to the Luttrell family for over 600 years.
Dunster Castle is now a National Trust property.
There are also the castle gardens to visit and there are plenty of village shops and cafes where you can buy Somerset cream teas.

England: Dunster Castle in Somerset
Big Hammy, Henry's dad, came over for a visit and one of the things we did together was to visit Dunster Castle in Somerset. It's a medieval castle on the east side of Exmoor that has evolved over time. It is set up to display different rooms from different time periods but mainly from the victorian and later eras. There are also lush gardens, a watermill and tea room, and grand views of the sea and valley below. We had lunch at the Luttrell Arms Inn which was a classic English pub and cream tea at the mill.

On the 12th October I took another coach trip to this wonderful part of Somerset. The day was raining when I left my place. However around Taunton the weather changed and it turned out very pleasant. I heard one person on the coach say that they had been many times and this is not a rarity it happens quite often when you have passed Taunton. We parked in the main public car park just off the A396 where the National Park centre is. You can obtain maps and other interesting items from this centre and is all part of Exmoor National Park.
In the main street of Dunster you will see the Yarn Market a fine structure dating back to the 17th Century. It was used by the town's once flourishing yarn trade, this octagonal pavilion is now a local landmark. The market cross was probably built around 1609 by the Luttrell family who were the local Gentry of the manor, to help maintain the importance of the village as a market, particularly for wool and cloth.
There are many restaurants, cafes, and eating places in the High Street. Just standing and looking down this street is worth the trip here. It brought back many happy memories for me. You can see the beautiful Dunster castle standing resplendent on the hill at the other side of the town. Dunster Castle is a former motte and bailey castle which is now a country house, in the village of Dunster, Somerset .The castle lies on the top of a steep hill called a Tor, and has been fortified since the late Anglo-Saxon period. This castle dates back 1000 years, the gardens here are very beautiful and seem almost tropical. There is plenty to see within this castle. You will also find here on the garden outskirts a working Water Mill where you can buy milled items in the shop which is based inside the mill.
Also within this village you will find the Priory Church of St George, Dunster and Anglican church and at the rear of this church an old Dove cote building and Tithe Barn. Within the High street, you will find a museum called the Dunster Museum and Doll Collection. This trip was well worth it there is so much to see here in this small village.

Dunster Village Somerset.
Dunster is a village, civil parish and former manor within the English county of Somerset, today just within the north-eastern boundary of the Exmoor National Park. It lies on the Bristol Channel coast 2.5 miles (4km) south-southeast of Minehead and 20 miles (32km) northwest of Taunton. The United Kingdom Census of 2011 recorded a parish population of 817.
Iron Age hillforts testify to occupation of the area for thousands of years. The village grew up around Dunster Castle which was built on the Tor by the Norman warrior William I de Moyon (d. post 1090) shortly after the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Castle is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. From that time it was the caput of the Feudal barony of Dunster. The Castle was remodelled on several occasions by the Luttrell family who were lords of the manor from the 14th to 20th centuries. The benedictine Dunster Priory was established in about 1100. The Priory Church of St George, dovecote and tithe barn are all relics from the Priory.
The village became a centre for wool and cloth production and trade, of which the Yarn Market, built by George Luttrell (d.1629), is a relic. There existed formerly a harbour, known as Dunster Haven, at the mouth of the River Avill, yet today the coast having receded is now about 0.5 miles (0.80km) from the village and no sign of the harbour can be seen on the low lying marshes between the village and the coast. Dunster has a range of heritage sites and cultural attractions which combine with the castle to make it a popular tourist destination with many visitors arriving on the West Somerset Railway, a heritage railway running from Minehad to Bishops Lydeard.
The village lies on the route of the Macmillan Way West, Somerset Way and Celtic Way Exmoor Option.
