Taunton train station to Minehead Butlins

Hi, Is there a bus service that goes from Taunton train station to Butlins Minehead and return, can I see a timetable on line and any idea how much please. Or any idea how much a taxi would be.
Thank you.

It's the 28 bus, it goes every half hour or so, there are timetables if you Google as I can't post a link at the moment.

This looks like it.

last time I used it, it was about £5.80 single for an adult. this was a year or so ago. and it was every half hour. it can get very busy at times and we have had to wait for the next buss sometimes too. hth

Thank you for your help that's really useful, I have decided to pay a little extra for an open return train ticket, just in case the bus on the Friday is full. Does anyone have any idea how much a taxi is, I wouldn't imagine its cheap judging on how long the bus ride is.

The other potential option rather than getting a taxi all the way would be to see if the West Somerset Railway times work allowing about half an hour to get from Bishops Lydeard to Taunton as per the bus timetable - and use the taxi for the Taunton to BL bit.
