A village located near Watchet in West Somerset, England, Doniford, is a very small coastal settlement where countryside ends and Bristol Channel begins. The exact number of inhabitants of Doniford is rather difficult to ascertain because it is part of a more extensive area, which belongs to the wider Watchet settlement. The history of Doniford dates back to very early times when hunting was predominant, and farming was limited. However, the invention of the railway and the introduction of seaside tourism changed everything and brought new adventures to this charming Somerset village. Being situated close to the A39 highway connecting Williton, Minehead, and Bridgwater, this village is easy to reach from elsewhere. However, local infrastructure is almost nonexistent because the nearest towns Watchet and Williton provide all necessary services. Doniford Beach attracts tourists with its famous fossils, and Doniford Farm Park is popular among visitors.
