The cottage is very well equipped with everything you need. We found it comfortable. The position is great only 10 minutes to the beach and steam railway and the town centre literally 2 minutes away. There is so much to do in the area

Really enjoyed our stay. Cottage had everything we needed and a brilliant shower. Great having own parking space, in a quiet location yet only 5 minutes walk to the lovely main street and 10 minutes to the beach. Only downside to Minehead is dogs are not allowed in the 2 parks closest to the cottage, making toileting difficult. Thank you.

Clean, well kept and equipped. Beds were comfortable and the shower was lovely. My only tiny comment would be that the leather corner seating/sofa in the lounge has become a bit saggy and is very low. Difficult to get comfortable on even with all of the lovely cushions. The car parking space was really useful.

Absolutely perfect in every way, the biscuits and bubbly were a lovely touch, location excellent and spotlessly clean and the private parking was brilliant as we would have really struggled otherwise, we literally parked the car when we got there and didn't use it again until we came home...absolutely fabulous.

We enjoyed our stay, the cottage is in a fantastic position - just a short walk into Minehead, with shops and pubs very close by. The beach is also a short walk away and Blenheim Gardens are a delight.

An exemplary holiday cottage that we can't praise highly enough. We frequently self cater and often feel that the property in question leaves a number of things to be desired, but not here. We have already recommended the cottage to several family and friends and we don't do that very often.
