“A quiet, cosy, and well-furnished retreat, which acted as a convenient base from which to explore the beautiful surrounding coastal areas, and, Quantock Hills.”
The road leading to the property was a bit steep to drive up. As it is a no-through road, very few vehicles passed by the house, we saw more dog-walkers or joggers if anything. Which also meant it was extremely quiet there, both day and night. We liked that there was secure parking guaranteed due to a gravel courtyard directly outside the house.

The road leading to the property was a bit steep to drive up. As it is a no-through road, very few vehicles passed by the house, we saw more dog-walkers or joggers if anything. Which also meant it was extremely quiet there, both day and night. We liked that there was secure parking guaranteed due to a gravel courtyard directly outside the house. The house was as in the photos, yet the living room area with a soft sofa was pleasantly updated with two comfortable white armchairs, instead of the IKEA chair, and a wood and glass coffee table. A comfortable modern house with its small cottage garden, it was certainly large enough to accommodate our family of three. The underfloor heating made the whole of the downstairs feel cosy and toasty. Beds were good, although the larger room with one double bed was, to us, a more supportive mattress, than those in the other bedroom. Whilst we did encounter one issue, we flagged it quickly and it was promptly assessed and dealt with by owner, Phyllis, of next door. She was available, very friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with. We appreciated the thoughtful and tasty welcome pack of homemade scones and jam, and, clotted cream. From the house, we had short walks to Watchet harbour, hunted for fossils at local beaches, boarded at Watchet for magical Steam Railway journeys, and enjoyed days out at Dunster beach and Castle, Minehead, and other area attractions. It was a nice house, and, we had a relaxing stay.
